So Motegi has been cancelled. Next Friday will be the penultimate round at SSR5. He decided to make both SSR5 AND Suzuka worth double points. So please show up for them.
 
Seth told me that he will give SSR5 one more try for next week, since only 3 showed up today.

He also said if next week is the same, he'll just cancel this series since it's taking time out his day.
 
How about just cancel SSR5 since suzuka is better and make suzuka quadruple points with no weight ballast for everyone? The grand finale! I'll be there tonight.

Track-Details-Suzuka.png


INTRODUCTION

Designed as a Honda test track in 1962 by Dutchman John Hugenholtz, Suzuka is one of few circuits in the world to have a "figure 8" layout, with the back straight passing over the front section by means of an overpass. The circuit can be used in three configurations; the full circuit (which we will use), the "Suzuka East" and "Suzuka West" configuration.

The main straight measures 1.2km in length with 20 unique turns including the almost flat out, challenging 130R followed by the 2nd gear Casio Triangle. Can you conquer the technical Suzuka and stand on the podium in the land of the rising sun?

RACE DETAILS

Room will open Today at 6:30-7:00 pm eastern time, qualifying will begin ~hour of room open (provided enough entries). Qualifying settings will run FUEL CONSUMPTION/TIRE WEAR on "fast" while the Race settings will be run on "normal".

TIRE USAGE

Suzuka, being the last 'endurance event' in Season 3's series, will have tire usage open. As long as 2 stints of each tire are used, with a minimum of 10 laps each stint.

As I told Seth on PSN these races are too late for me now. I can drive about okay but I don't have the confidence in my concentration while drowsy. I'd probably wreck someone.
