[jobyone]

I could do this, also yes joby, I should be joining...is the first race this Sunday?

That is kinda up to everyone. Who wants to race this Sunday?

 

[WhiterunGuard]

Oh crap, totally unprepared.

Oh crap, totally unprepared.

So is everyone. The car track combo was just made known a few hours ago.

 

[WhiterunGuard]

Dude. I know who you're talking to, no need to quote me when I'm one post down. Not meaning to be angry sounding but it always bothers me when people do that.

Edit: I'm cool with racing this Sunday 👍

 

[GGGMotorsport]

I assumed we were racing this week. I'm ready either way.

 

[GGGMotorsport]

What are the lobby setting s for tire/ware fuel consumption?

 

[jobyone]

@kendawg @JoeW

Lets get the tire wear set. I will work on the lineup image but they may not be done till tomorrow.

Unless there is serious objection we will start Season 3 tomorrow!

 

[GGGMotorsport]

I did a quick run in the VW on very fast and I would go with that. Fast would not require a stop

[IceWarden]

Confirmed on the VF

 

[jobyone]

Full schedule posted on OP. Just need Tire wear settings to make it 100% correct.

Also if you want a spotter guide get cranking on sharing those cars.

Feel free to come give it a try. The club ID is on the OP.

 

[tezgm99]

I don't think I lagged tonight....at least, no one said anything anyway

 

[jobyone]

Congrats to @fzappa for winning a close battle between the top 3!

It is great to see an old timer make it through both races. Now we just need @88GTA to show up

 

[88GTA]

Yea I will try for this weekend. I was gone last weekend...

Check your sig @jobyone.

 

[tezgm99]

I think I've shared my cars.

 

[SGETI]

What does it mean "cars are shared" ?

 

[88GTA]

If you share the cars through the community section with your colors and number then @jobyone can link the picture of your exact car into the thread.

I am going to head online for a bit if anyone is around. Toying with an idea. If you want to join me grab one of the following

1. Nissan March 12SR '07
2. Honda Fit RS '10
3. Suzuki Swift Sprot '07
4. Mazda Demio Sport '10

full NA Tune. No turbo/supercharger/nitro but everything else ok including weight reduction and aero

Minimum weight 890kg
PP - restricted to 400

Or we can practice the NSX

Wish i was home, that sounds fun

Yea they are fun cars. Tested them at Brand Hatch 80 short track. Then went to Willow Springs, Bathurst, Twin Ring Motegi, Spa in one.

My thinking for the series/one off races is

Spec B -

Nissan March 12SR '07 / Honda Fit RS '10 / Suzuki Swift Sprot '07 / Mazda Demio Sport '10

• FF, 890kg weight, 400pp Racing tires. No forced induction. All other tuning allowed.
• 10 minute qualifying - 40 minute race.
• The motto of the series is Rubbing is Racing. Think Touring cars Dirty driving still prohibited but would need to be a pretty rough incident showing intent to warrant a penalty. Lets be respectful but have fun pushing the envelop in these low powered cars.
• Each Participant can call one Yellow Flag during the race. This can only be called while in last place. The leader will acknowledge the caution and coast to 60 mph and then maintain that speed (or less if needed) for 30 seconds at which point he is free to get back on the gas. No passing during the cautions.
• Winners may receive weight penalties to even up future races.

If anyone likes the idea let me know and then buy at least one of the four cars. If you want to petition a car for inclusion send me a PM.

I watched British touring race last weekend and wow it was awesome to watch, this concept seems similar, I don't mind racing hard tires when it's a tuned car, 400pp think rm rs would be much, if u guys do this Honda Fit for me of course

 

[jobyone]

One slight change to the results. It was not showing the tiebreak properly between socal and Ken. The points have not changed.
