Fyi: i don't think the lap count is accurate for tonight's races. 21 laps will only last about 38 minutes by my calculations. Unless i'm in the wrong car :odd:
 
Hey guys, can you let me know if you plan on participating tonight for a headcount. Thanks!
 
The new premium R.S.? Front wheel drive?
Yep. But i did have my time wrong in my head. Got confused with my nascar lap times during practice wednesday.

I still think the laps are low, but it's not as far off as i originally thought.
 
i was on Hards?!?!? :banghead: i guess i lost focus after downloading all the updates for 2 hours and rushing to get in the room at the last second. well that makes me feel a little better about my times....and btw, i had no car/tire sounds during that race either, lol

Note: this may be addressed elsewhere, but, if you lose sound before the race. go to the garage, change cars, then go back to the garage and change back. it will reload the sounds for the car.

i'm in there tonight hoping for a good performance :)
 
I'm working tonight jay. Hope you guys have another great turn out. Good luck everybody.

On a side note: my contract with exceed finally ran out:tup:👍 Had DSL installed thursday, set my modem up this morning. Did speed test and my ping is now 53 not 670 like it was with satellite Internet. Going to run cat6 cable sometime this week so no more lag for this ole boy. At least not on my end. Could be a different story though with PD.

Looking forward to racing with you guys soon.
 
Off topic, but i went to East Coast Nationals racing in Spec E30 at Road Atlanta. My first time at RA, and conveniently i had a crank sensor fail in my second practice session, then in the third the head gasket blew. awesome. so i rented another car that was down about 5-10hp, but figured i might as well race since i made the 10hr haul. my first session in the new car was qualifying.here are two videos

Hey guys, I'm having trouble getting back home in time tonight. I'm going to be a while by the looks of things.

I'm trying to coordinate a host for tonight, no luck yet, taking volunteers if able.

Please let me know.
 
Just me and the kids tonight probably going to be late :rolleyes: not sure if I'll make 1st race. Still getting dinner on the table and then bath time hopefully they don't put up a fuss
 
I posted the results in the host discussion. If noone is going to do a write-up (none of the usual wordsmith's raced), we can just copy that over here i guess.

It was nice to see RacingOtaku last night! I even tapped him a couple times :lol:. Sorry dude.

Bionic ran away and hid after realizing lightning was too fast in that FF supercar. "If i can't win, it's a boring race" is what i think i heard him say after race 1. :P

How many guys turned out? Obviously I (one of the "wordsmiths") wasn't there, so I can't help with the results and/or recap. And exactly which host discussion were these results posted in? Am I not involved in said discussion? :(:lol:
 
You guys had already mentioned you couldn't host saturday night. So you were excluded from the very super-secret, behind the scenes, hush-hush, enlightening private communications.
 
Sorry @BionicDerp and @Dolph Drago , it wasn't so much a secret meeting, more of a trying to find someone to help host. I realized I wasn't going to make it back in time and wanted to make sure the races still happened. Dolph, I'll forward you the results for posting.

Thanks again for all who participated! I'm really bummed I missed it, I chose that combo after all! Had the car, ready to race...
 
Tried the nascar for next weeks race. Should there be a hp limit on that car? It's almost un drivable.

Gears,
After much more practice, i realized as long as I don't try to run low through turns 1 and 2 and make no sudden movements, it was actually ok.
