OK, in the last 25 years I am looking not every year for quantity of TOP-75 releases!
But after all I remember ... in the year 2021 we had a month with 16 engine updates / new engines in one month only (I am looking for TOP-75 only).
January 2024
14 engine updates / new engines in 15 days.
Very nice to see ...
A new generation of very strong engines / programmers comes with full-speed to us.
