I might be there but last week my transmission broke so a friend of mine is currently putting in a new transmission for me and the race is on Saturday night, so if gets it done in time I wont be able to make this race but if he doesn't get it done on time, ill show up. So I cant really make a entry post, if anything it will most likely be last second when I get a phone call from him either late Friday night or early Saturday morning. 👍
 
Cars are pretty fast. Like, new track record fast. Like 38 second laps, 250 mph at the end of the straights fast. Just a suggestion, but I would recommend a 55 Hp reduction for the race as it'll bring the drafting speeds a bit closer to reality

Seconded.

It will not change for qualifying, but I will consider it for the race. Please do get those times in everyone.
In qualifying for the real event a 38.6 was run. I will have to double check race pace.
 
Missed out on pole by half a second. Scraped the wall out of 2 on my first qually lap.
 
Room open everyone. I will go over everything when we are all here.
 
Guess I should say thanks to everyone for the "welcome back" reception yesterday. Always glad to know I made friends here and that I'm missed haha I'll really try to make some races this year, it will be hard, but will make the effort.

Also @nascarfan1400 glad to share the racing track with you again man, we have our friends off/rivals on track thingy and I missed that as well. We'll definitely will share the asphalt much more this year, count on that.
 
So I can't find any of my flash drives because I'm an unorganized person so the photos may take a while before I can upload them here. But I did get a photo of me crossing the line which I posted to my community page, so I have that one. Here it is...
My Tenth GTPlanet Win.png


I'm starting to learn how to use Gimp, the paint/editing software. So I added car numbers to the top of the Panasonic Paddock and to the Scoring Pylon. (Kinda hard to see the scoring pylon I know. Imgur is giving me problems so you can click here to see it in the full resolution.) I got the numbers based off the last numbers each driver used in the A.R.S. series. (How'd I do for my first attempt? Do they look convincing? Like they could be in the game?)

I've said it already (Multiple times actually) but thank you so much @aceboy127 for hosting this race! Indianapolis is one of my all time favorite tracks, and the Indianapolis 500 is my favorite race, and to actually win here, (in a mock Indy 500 no less) means so much to me. Thank you to everyone that came out for the race given how short notice it was, and for sticking with it, even when not in the draft and laps down. It was a lot of fun to race with you guys again.

Thanks to @Whitetail for broadcasting the race on YouTube! You were great with the commentary! It was cool that one of my friends got to see what I do every time I tell him, "I can't come over/go out tonight because I have a league race." He said he watched until about lap 53 when he passed out, (Which is a lot longer than I thought he would since he really isn't into racing.) which I don't blame him seeing as how the racing action was pretty boring from a spectators point of view from after the first pit stops until the final 15 laps.

Sorry about the long post but like I said, this was a big win for me. My 10th win in GTPlanet leagues actually.

Regarding the future of A.R.S., Ace, I'm glad to hear that even with Bowtie and Sass gone, you're choosing to continue to operate. The A.R.S. is IMO one of the best run leagues on this site. From the score keeping, to the on track talent. So I'm looking forward to upcoming series!

Cheers! :cheers:

Alright guys I am getting some help with BoP for Le Mans, which is fantastic btw. Also, if anyone else is interested in stewarding or organizing series for the ARS don't hesitate to shoot me a PM. I'm looking to build to the future in ARS and I cannot do it by myself. Thanks everyone for your support, it really does mean a lot to me.
 
Hey guys a quick update. GT BoP is done for Le Mans and Prototype is nearing completion. I am planning to be on this evening hopefully finishing up testing. I am also hopeful of making the post tomorrow and opening up sign ups. Cannot wait to race at Le Mans.
