I would like to reserve the metallic blue/lime green paint scheme for next season. I know I have missed literally every race this season but I will make it next year. I hope to also have the #46 too. I will make every race next year because school has started and work is over.
 
Any results from last night?

Days late, but here you go!

Low on fuel, but on fresh tires, tcrash15 passes AJK-VAIL on the last lap.

VAIL tries to pass at the last chicane, but is out of tires and finds the barrier.
 
nice pics, where is everyone?

plus how are the points setting up?, do the points leaders have a car /track in mind for next season?

any word on if penalty or damge levels may or may not be changed?

just lookin ahead, if I need to break in a new car or not and such things, plus school started back up, i actually have to plan game time into my schedule again. hope to see everyone soon.

race hard my freinds; race on
 
I think I will be missing tomorrow nights action sadly as it's the wife's birthday. Definitely taking part in next season once it's announced.
 
Just wanted to say that I'm sorry for not being around this week again. It's been a hectic week once again, and hopefully everything will start slowing down after the weekend. I'm going to be updating the points in a few minutes with the results from last week. I've got to take my brother to two football games tomorrow and his second game isn't until 5:30. So if anyone joins tomorrow, I will add them, though it won't be until close to race time. Thanks for sticking with it guys and don't forget that after tomorrow's race we once again will be picking new cars and tracks! Hoping to see a great turnout tomorrow!

We are racing tonight right? Nice coincidence we're racing at Spa, like Formula 1 tomorrow

Yep everything's a go for tonight. Didn't even realize that F1 was at Spa this weekend. Perhaps someone will chose an F1 car next season.

Hope to see a good turnout tonight!

Im hoping for a lexus rm or gt by citerion
 
That was an awesome race. Even if I finished 2nd or 3rd, id be happy. Strategy played a BIIIG role and it was a hard fought battle. Im really just happy I beat rossitronic after he tried running me of the road. Dirty racers dont win NO race Im in
 
Season two comes to a close with a great race at SPA !


Congrats to the Race 5 podium. It was back and forth with them and someone had to win!

1st place: #1 tensor120

2nd place: #41 rossitronic

3rd place: #87 Nic-KL


Great job to everyone this season. Not ONE race complaint and it was fun racing with everybody who came out.

Season THREE starts next Saturday at 10PM ET. New car and five new tracks will be announced in a couple of days. Keep your eyes out for new car choice by rossitronic as he was this seasons GRAND PRIZE WINNER! CONGRATS!!! Once car is posted then track choices will be made! beal will post the final standings so 2nd-6th place can make their track choices.


I'll post pics of tonights race Sunday morning. I'm to sleepy!
 
congrats tensor, nice job.

lets post what car we will run next season asap.. i dont have many RM's, so personally I'll probably need to break one in.

lookin forward to next season.. im still pushing real damge for real drivers, lets seperate ourselves from the random lobbies out there put our skills to the test, if not damge at least release the penalties.

I'll still race even if the rules don't change, just want crank the realism to 10.0:)

race on my freinds.. race hard!!
 
Okay , here's how it works. Season 2 winner picks the car and 2nd-6th pick the tracks. beal will then shuffle the tracks and I will set the laps. Keep your eye on the posts. When the car is picked then lets pick the tracks. Lets make this a fast but smart process.

Remember , pick a track that suits the car. If you have to then take a few laps with the car around your track choice to see if it's going to be a good enduro match.

Here the list from 1st-6th:


rossitronic-car choice
Nic-KL-track choice
tcrash15-track choice
Chatva-track choice
dgafaboutany1420-track choice
cmbeal317-track choice

Please make your choice in order. Don't post your choice until the person in front of you makes their's. Think about a few tracks as someone before you might chose the track you were thinking about.

Good pickin' and see everyone next Saturday at 10pm ET for the start of SEASON 3 of: S.P.E.C. Racing - Saturday's Premier Enduro Club

I understand your thinking but I just don't think turning the penelties off and have heavy damage on will be a good mix.
Heres why: penelties on keeps you honest. I know , we're all honest but with the penelties on , you have no choice but to be ;).
Light damage as opposed to heavy damage: Scenaro: I'm racing along just fine and BAM , I get rear ended by someone! Now what? We both have damage that will only be fixed by going to the pit! That sucks! We were just running 1st and 2nd with two laps to go! Not only did you ruin your night but mine as well.
This is supposed to be a fun enduro race. We want it to be as real as possible but also fun.
So far , we had no issues the way its set up now and keeping the settings we have now will keep it that way. FUN!!!!!!!

Thank you.

About having heavy damage and/or penalties, I think they both suck because sometimes the penalties are inconsistent and people can cause you to get one just like having heavy damage, you can be doing your own thing and someone can hit you. Most of the time when someone hits you in back, you get damage and they dont. I think it all can be unfair but we gotta have something and I like it like it is

I would rather run light damage and no penalties, but I don't agree that the penalties are inconsistent. It's a set boundary in the game, it's just our perception of the turn plus the impact of tire wear. Nobody is able to run the exact same line throughout the life of a set of tires. That said, I don't like the penalties. I would rather we police each other and do point deductions for offenders.

People racing with 1st and 2nd wreck all the time, look at tony stewart and matt kenseth at bristol. (nascar fans) If you want racing to be real then damage should be on. With no damage after being rear ended, people wont be as cautious and it wont be clean. With damage the racing will be cleaner in my opinion

Remember , this is not NASCAR. It's not real racing. We are not pro racers. We don't race for cash! We race for fun. I think two seasons of doing the Sat night racing without any race complaints speaks for itself.
The 'scenario' that I mentioned was just that , a scenario. I never , that I can recall , ever seen that happen so far in the past two seasons.
We came to a conclusion that we want ALL skill levels to join. Not just a certain group of racers. So , with that being said , I think we need to stick with what worked in the past so everyone will have fun on Sat nights.
THRASH , you opinion is a valid one as is the others that have the same opinion but most want to keep the settings the way they are.

im still gonna campaign though, it's all in good fun, but i have the most fun when driving is real, I like that real life situation, but cant afford it in real life, but i can understand the hobbiest that just wants an organized race.

penalties in this game are still rough the same arguements are made for not haveing full damge.. meaning.. someone else's mistakes more often ruins your race, seems a lot of people have had that complaint. and we won't know how well we all race each other until we actually turn real damage on,(although seem very few of us want that). i think you'll be pleasently suprised, season 3 should bring great races.

lets see those new cars/track line-ups, C you guys soon.
