That would be great. You should already have TURTLE_DivisionX.

You can't change the number or wheel. Or am I missing something?

EDIT:
Oh, I think I get it...for RMs and Karts. I use 69.

Wheel is usually stock.

Yes, the color combination is for cars that can be painted, which is most of them. The same with wheels. Please refer to the Drivers List to see what is already being used and chose something different. I am sure blue is already being used for a car body, you can still use blue just make sure you choose a different wheel color than the other blue cars are using. The number you have chosen is not available, please choose one not already in use. Thanks!
 
Nice win last night Psycho Tuber. 👍 I was hoping to hang with you, but you were destroying me in Eau Rouge. I also never could quite figure out how fast to take the fast, left handed kink before the chicane at the end. I suppose I may have had you beat in sector 2, but 1 and 3, you would always win. :sly: That, and my strategy didn't quite work out as well as I had hoped. I decided from the get-go I was going to do a 5 stop race. I probably would have been better off doing your strategy. I lost a little more time than I was expecting those 2 extra laps (for the first two pit stops) and the one extra lap runs later in the race.

I had one bad off on brand new tires at the end of sector 2 about 30 or so laps in. I ended up directly facing the wall in the sand. :lol: I think I lost over 20 seconds there. I had two other tank slappers that ended up in semi or full spins. And I lost count of how many times I barely put my wheels off to the left just enough at the top of Eau Rouge to get penalized. So aggravating. :grumpy: It was hard to concentrate for the whole race, it was so long. At least when racing computer players, you can pause. Not so online. It also didn't help that I had to take a leak badly the last two runs. I flew to the bathroom as soon as I crossed the line at the end. :lol:

Anyway, great job again, Psycho. You were clearly the class of the field.

Thanks Dolph! And you described EXACTLY what a 2-hour Enduro should be, including runnng to the bathroom after the race. :lol:
 
Congrats Psycho!!! I wish I could been there to race with the back markers. I love enduro's! But no practice time, no car break-in and no sleep helped me decide to just pass this time.

NEXT TIME!

P.S. If you are quick about it, you can run to the restroom during a long fuel pitstop 👍
That's part of practice; Timing your "personal" pit stops :dopey:

Great race Psycho! Again, my internet failed when I am running a decent race.

I actually made a strategy error. I was in 3rd position for quite a bit then my fuel ran low... when i pitted, i refuelled all the way up and full. That made me lost a lot of time and I Mbobb and Ford caught up and passed. Do you think I will be able to catch up to them given that I don't make an error and run equal lap times as them?

I wish I could get in and out of the bathroom that fast. Unfortunately we never made any long fuel stops. Plus I'm recovering from a spinal cord surgery from last year, so I can only hobble so fast with my cane and get my business done. :lol: Now when I ran the 24 hours of Le Mans last year (pre-surgery), I probably could have done it. I ran until my tank was near empty in the X1, tires never being an issue. So pit stops for fuel were loooong.

Hopefully you can join next time. The bigger the field, the more fun. Unfortunately we had two people leave before the race started and at least two more got disconnected during the race (a third left, not sure on his status). Only five of us were actually able to finish. :P

You could have splashed fuel for the remaining pit stops and effectively neutralized that error unless it occured too late in the race.
 
Sounds like a good race. Wish I could have made it. Here's the new TRL Stingray GT concept I made up.

Race Recap

Wow, a 56 lap race at SPA in the Pagani Zonda R! It was certainly a challenging car and track combination. Making it a 2 hour enduro definitely added to the challenge as well. It was a great race with Psycho-Tuber getting the Pole position. Dolph Drago had a completely different pit strategy than Psycho-Tuber so it wasn't clear who the eventual winner would be until later in the race. Eventually however, it became clear Psycho-Tuber had the advantage and ended up with the win. Dolph Drago finished a very good race taking 2nd Place. Ford-Racing99, mbobb1969, and MonkeyBoy-4q had the mistakes you would expect with a Zonda R in a 2 hour race at SPA finishing in 3rd, 4th, and 5th Place respectively. Penalties and run offs in the sand kept them from challenging for the lead. Psycho-Tuber finished in 1st Place, but everyone that finished the race was a winner!
 
I'm not going to be able to make it tonight guys I have a few more things to get done before house inspection. Sorry
 
I hope the races are good tonight. Something came up and I can't make it make it, and I was looking forward to the 69 vette.
 
Unfortunately it was a light crowd, as we only had four people racing tonight. Seems like this week everyone just had something come up. I still had a good time racing, and I hope the others had fun, too. Hopefully there will be a better turnout next week (back to normal). 👍

It was a heck of a lot of fun last night. Throwing Corvettes around Deep Forest and watching liampage123 driving was a blast. :D
