Hey Fellas, I’ve been wanting to put together a weekly race night for a while now. It seems like there are a lot of regulars in the Daily Race thread who race often but don’t necessarily get the chance to race with each other or other regulars/members as often as they’d like to. So I’m proposing a once a week get together to run through the Daily Races, just for fun, no scores or week to week standings or anything like that, all skill levels welcomed. My initial thoughts were to use everyone’s Daily Q times to remove the time needed for qualifying on race night in order to get to the racing faster, I was thinking 6 races per night, 2 of each combo with the first race using everyones Daily Q time to set the grid and the second races being a Reverse grid based on the finishing order from the first race to mix things up and give everyone a better chance to have fun.
I’m still in the initial phase of getting things organized and most things are still up for debate and improvement, so if anyone has any ideas on how to make the format or experience better, I’d love to hear your ideas. Thanks for stopping in, I hope to see many of you out on the track once I get things going. I’m hoping to get it up and running in the next week or two. Have a great day everyone.
Edit: We are now up and running! The first few Saturdays have seen some close, clean racing and it’s been a lot of fun. Great Job Everyone!!
Now that the details/format of the races are basically finalized and working it’s time to edit this post so all new racers don’t have to search through the thread to find them.
The format for our Saturday Night Daily Races is as follows, the lobby will be posted in this thread and the Daily thread on Saturday nights. The Lobby is set to friends only so we don’t get random drop ins, so if you want to participate simply send me a friend request so you’ll be able to see the lobby when it opens. All participants are welcome and all assists are allowed. Our Race C’s are not full races as in the Dailies, the Laps are Halved and Fuel/Tire wear are not used to keep things simple and cut down on overall time.
