My cousins coming here was more of a handful than i ever thought it would be. That all i can blame you for. :P To make things worst though, their flight got delayed twice and than cancelled. They were supposed to leave during the storm that north-west USA got.

Oh riiiiight! I forgot I made that wise investment! :lol:
 
I got a gift card to best buy last week after they accidentally ordered the wrong radio for my car. I was looking at the DVD's and happened across Rush at the last moment. I had been wanting to see it, so I just went ahead and bought it. Just watched it two nights ago. Pretty enjoyable. Enjoy the movie and hopefully it motivates you for the race!

What a great film. I never knew Niki got back in the car after just 42 days. And it provided great insight into the personalities of my heroes. I fell in love with formula 1 about 7 or so years ago, though of course it's much different now than the glory days of the 70's. I get so pumped up for each race and often find myself staying up until 3 or 4 in the morning to watch 24 guys cheat death in their "bombs on wheels" as James called it. I can't wait for Melbourne, just 2 more weeks! What I wouldn't give to know what it feels like to compete on such a level just once.

Pit Meeting

​

The First Turn Rule - It is the policy of this league for you to hold your position in turn 1 and not try to improve it unless the following situations occur: 1) The driver directly in front of you is asleep on the start. 2) The driver directly in front of you runs off course with at least 2 wheels off the track. 3) Obvious race incidents that must be avoided. 4) If you are able to fully draft past someone without incident or disruption to the other driver(s) with a reasonable distance before approaching the first turn.

Holding your position in the first turn is limited to the first turn on the first lap. This rule is in place for 2 reason: (1) to effectively avoid incidents in the first turn, and (2) so that drivers who are being careful and doing their part to avoid incidents in the 1st turn of are not taken advantage of. There is no sense in causing an incident in the congestion of the first turn. You can not win the race on the 1st turn or even the 1st lap. If a complaint is filed, the decision we make will be one that promotes an incident free first turn.

Dive Bombing​

Dive bombing is unacceptable, and only results in incidents. It is not the same as passing under braking. Dive-bombing is when a trailing car intentionally brakes late to dive underneath the car in front of them as they are turning into a corner. The trailing driver must move to the low groove for at least 3-4 seconds prior to corner entry so that the leading driver can see the trailing drivers intentions in his mirror. However, running the low groove is not a guarantee that he will allow you to pass, it is only an indication that you wish to pass on the low side. The trailing driver must also have gained at least a half a car length lead before braking begins so the leading driver can see his position and avoid contact.

Mics During Racing​

From the beginning of the race, until the last driver crosses the finish line, your mic should be on mute. This allows all racers to concentrate on their driving to the fullest. You may unmute to tell a driver your track position if racing in close proximity. If a racer is on mic by mistake, please feel free to say "Mic Check" to remind all racers to check.


Race Incidents​

Legitimate complaints are encouraged, they insure a better racing environment for everyone. Complaints should be addressed by "Private Message" to the race steward of the race in which the incident occurred. It is a matter to respect every Turtle on the track, as we are competing against each other on the track, we all must remain clean at all times. If you know you made a mistake on the track by pushing a turtle off track, please let them gain their position back. We are Turtle Racing League, and we want to be remembered as a respectful clean racer towards any racer out there. Please include race number, lap number, and time of incident. A ruling will be announced after a video review by an independent steward. All racing incidents or racing related issues shall be dealt with privately and under no circumstance mentioned publicly.


-- If you Hit Someone Off Track, you are at guilt at the moment, and could recieve a penalty if you don't wait up for them, so make the Gentleman move, and wait up for them and give their position back


Gentleman Rule​


In 2 Situations the Gentleman Rule Can apply, first off, when racing with a group of racers around you, and hitting someone off track, you are at fault, you must give their position back and wait up for them, even if it requires losing positions. Second off, When going off track, and cars are around you, the on track cars have the right of way, and when it's the correct time, please cautiously return to track when it's safe too, even if it requires to brake or let off the gas pedal to allow on track racers past you. Failing to follow the Gentleman Rule, and getting a race complaint against you will lead to Stewards Penalizing you for not following the rule. The Basic Saying is, when you make a mistake, you are at fault and be a Gentleman about it. We do not want to be saying to everyone week by week that you cant go off track or push someone off track. We all make mistakes on track sometimes weather hitting someone off track, or going off track, but when happening, be a Gentleman about it. To Apply The Gentleman rule towards yourself, another gentleman way to penalized yourself simply by letting off the gas pedal for roughly 3-5 Seconds. This way no ground is gained. Please Know that Turtle Racing League Does NOT take penalty's very serious, we are all here to have a blast racing together. For the most part the first couple of times we will talk to you about what happened and make sure it does Not happen again. We all make mistakes off and on track, and we want to turn your mistakes into successful Racing by knowing not to do that again.


Also Please Review The OLR Rules and The Good RaceCraft Guide

Here's hoping for a good turn-out for my first D2 race. Although I won't mind all that much if the rooms are combined and I get to test my stuff against D1. Are you going to be there tonight fish?

Do I finally get to race @Severn?

You do indeed. I'll turn down an invite tonight up to D1 :lol:
Although, I'm going to preemptively start with my excuses now, just in case... I'll be driving with a DS3 tonight because my DFGT pedals are sticking. Good timing for it to start going, though. G27 and new seat arrive Tuesday! :D :D

Also, the Pinewood Derby finally happened today. Lesson learned: wheels bounce off the rail, wood grabs on and doesn't let go. Son is already designing what he wants for next year.

Dood Phish that DSM is A big project. not sure what your running it in but Good luck they tend to brake as soon as you make em fast. get a Shepard built trany and Dave buscher makes some great engines. But it aint no Evo. I had a 90 Talon Tsi on a Jdm motor and an EVO III turbo/manifold and a 91 GSX. AS SOON AS I HIT 300 plus hp stuff started to break. they go fast but they arent as tuff as the newer 4G63. I also had a transfer case seize and grenade on the freeway at 80. locking all four wheels and flat spining sux. If you have everything built it will last but the stock stuff is weak. Ill post pics later

Sweet dude!! Thanks we are almost done with it 👍
 
my neighbore has a prelude he runs at our local dirt oval inthe 4 banger class. looks like a lot of fun but my spec miata/track toy will only see the pavement. plus you can only run FWD. if i had more time and could go out every weekend id love to compete in a scca class or nascar class but i have to work like a dog just to afford trackdays
 
James Hnter
oh you going ina stock car 4 banger class. nice go beat up those hondas!!!!!!! turbo or NA? is it the 2.0 displacement limit like we have over here?
Click to expand...
Not allowed to have a turbo. 2 door 2.4 liter with a new engine 16V 2000 with new suspension on it

I ran with the prelude last year until a guy crashed me and the prelude went into the junk yard
