Nice handlebar... #.. that's your chin?

The goatee beneath the 'stache, my friend.

The Tamora is 505 PP. Shouldn't we be running on SS tires...according to to tire chart? >500pp=SS.

 

[Chiochan]

We use the dealership PP.

 

[Luv2Coach]

We use the dealership PP.

Lol. Ok. That doesn't make sense to me...oh well. Tires replaced...

 

[Luv2Coach]

Seems we should choke the power down to dealership PP then. I know it won't happen. Just voicing my thoughts...

 

[JLBowler]

It's never made a whole lot of sense to me either. The best answer I've ever been given is that it's easier to set the tires off the dealership PP.

Congratz on 2000th post!

Wow thanks, I didn't even notice that!

As Goat said, we go by Dealership PP. It's also clearly labeled at the top of the tire chart.

That's correct. One thing that helps this league's format and schedule hum along nicely is the timely selections of Prize A and Prize B. With that in mind, I don't want prize winners to ever have guess how much the PP of a potential selection will increase after the car is broken-in. Guessing wrong by just one PP could potentially change the tire of the car they are considering.

On the same note, I don't prize winners to ever have to break-in in a car just to be sure they what PP a car will land on after it's broken-in. Picking prizes should be simple and straightforward if it's expected to be done quickly.

And finally, when a car is a "tweener" in the PP range, I'd much rather have it on the less grippy of the two compounds it falls in between. Going by the Dealership PP instead of the final PP does that nicely.

Makes a big difference. Could just not post tires used and let people refer to tire chart after break-in. People here are smart enough to do that. At least I would hope so. Lol.

👍 👍

The medium compound is already more than necessary

Not in my dimension, it is functional, but not "more than..." For me, nor even close.

[zer05ive]

Thanks, Stewards!

I've updated the results post because there was a slight change to the D5 standings due to this penalty.

 

[TRL_Importlife]

Shuffle or spec race anyone ?

 

[ExoSphere64]

HAH!! Very cool! I actually get to run the TVR in a STOCK color! (It is where I have been getting my signature light blue from the beginning!) Now that the holidays are over and things are settling down, I am REALLY looking forward to next Sundays races. This last week my head just wasn't fully ready for it and my results showed ... The next line up looks to be a boat load of fun! If all goes according to plan I will see you all tomorrow night for some much needed practice!!👍👍

 

[zer05ive]

Hey D1 drivers, there's still one position in the S.N.A.I.L. Classifieds that needs to be filled. Is there anyone willing to upload their D1 replays for us? This process only takes a few minutes each week and it's necessary so that data can be pulled from them and so that the stewards can watch the them (whenever a complaint is filed).

The ideal candidate is someone who doesn't currently have any league responsibilities, but is looking for a way to contribute to the league's collective efforts. The only requirement for this position is the ownership of a USB flash drive of 1GB or higher. However, one can be provided for you if needed.

 

[Apmaddock]

1GB? Seems like about 125 MB of free space would cut it most of the time.

…I guess there could be more to that position than I'm aware of…

 

[zer05ive]

Yeah I realized that I put the wrong size after I went to bed. In fact, the largest file size I've seen for all six races combined has been only about 80 MB. Therefore, just a little old 128 MB flash drive would easily do the trick. 👍

 

[Apmaddock]

I've had a few go over 100 MB. It just depends on how many people are in the races. It's always annoying when that happens because the upload has to be done in two chunks if you're using the web-based version of SugarSync.

Still, though, a 128 MB drive should work fine.

 

[Drgreenthumb977]

The result in D-2 this month start very tight t:up

 

[zer05ive]

Wolfsatz, can you please confirm that you'll be coordinating tonight's practice rooms?

I just downloaded the SugarSync desktop application. There's no size limit with that. It's probably faster to do that once rather than splitting the zip file.

 

[Berdiyev]

Got my GtPedia... Apologize for the late notification, had lots of things to be done. Thanks again!

Probably

On my old computer I couldn't install it, as the thing was, well, too old. I've grown accustomed to that and for how little I use it I just deal with it, now, on my new computer.

Understandable. It doesn't work on my MacBook, so I have to use my Windows desktop.

 

[Wolfsatz]

Wolfsatz, can you please confirm that you'll be coordinating tonight's practice rooms?

Yes. Who will be hosting the Red/Blue rooms?

 

[Chiochan]

I'll take care or red as usual now that I have a wired connection. I will PM you the room # @ 9:45 pm est.

 

[zer05ive]

Thanks Goat!

Wolfsatz, JoeW usually hosts the Blue room.

JoeW, can you please PM Wolfsatz with the room # instead of me? He's the new Wednesday director. 👍

 

[Drgreenthumb977]

I would like to ask who's had surgery in the knee for the ligament or something like that.

 

[OwensRacing]

Could someone be so kind to send me a TVR broken in. I did one last night and my gave froze at save screen. Had to load my back up and obviously lost the car and mileage.


Thank you.



Got one thanks Marcus!
