[Nick Cannella]

Starting at 9am? Thats wonderful. I like that start time better.

Yeah, @RadStewart requested the time change last week. And since no one seemed to have an issue with it, I figured we'd keep it that way until the group decides on something else later on down the road.

 

[LineR32]

I might not be able to make it, it depends if I can get some sleep.

 

[Tomsoft]

Just that I've the correct time, the event starts in 2 hours, right?

Yup.

Was really good fun, looking forward to next Sunday!
The battles were good (wasn't quite expecting that we were all equally in terms of ranks).

Although, I probably shouldn't have launched my car out of map during the brazil race.

 

[Satomiblood]

Next week’s event details are up.

 

[LineR32]

I updated a livery and made a new one for the Honda 2&4 and took it for a spin. There's not much you can do with the car, so it'll be down to driver skill mostly.

It's a fun car to drive.

Regarding the destination for the 30-lap event, I switched my vote to Kyoto (Y). This puts it in the lead, but there's still 1 week left in the poll (poll closes next Tuesday, 4/16). If you've already voted and want to change your selection, you may do so. Once the poll closes and the results are conclusive, we'll discuss the car(s), theme(s), and propose a date. I may issue a new poll for this as well.

 

[Satomiblood]

Just a reminder to get your track votes in by 11:30 A.M. (EST) this upcoming Tuesday (4/16) if you haven't already done so. Also, please feel free to invite others to vote and participate in this 30-lap event.

 

[Tomsoft]

Unfortunately, I'm not able to make it this sunday. Wishing you guys a lot of fun tomorrow!

Participation list updated.

@LineR32 @Nick Cannella @RadStewart

Are you guys still down for tomorrow's event?

Yeah, I'll be there for a bit. Don't really care for this weeks choice of car, but I'll struggle through it. LOL

I think it's a nice change of pace. We've almost exclusively done road cars since this lobby started. And while that's still the core focus of the group, branching out to other classes will help keep things interesting. I have a class in mind for the 30-lap event, but I'll more than likely put that to a vote once the track selection is finalized.

 

[LineR32]

The car should keep the field closer with the lack of tuning on it. I'll be there tomorrow if my stomach is ok.

Other than @Nick Cannella showing up for the first 2 races, this week’s room was a dud. Hopefully, the participation will be better next week.

Yeah I hope more show. Sorry to have bailed but the Mrs needed me.

I don’t think I’m going to re-do this one. Something different for next week.

 

[Nick Cannella]

Agree

 

[Satomiblood]

Sunday's event details are up. The theme is the Nissan GT-R. I think the 2017 GT-Rs are N300 compatible. Can anyone confirm? I'm not at home to check. In any event, please tell me whether or not you'll be attending so I can update the sign-up sheet.

Note: The 30-lap track poll ends late tomorrow morning. You have until then to finalize your vote. Once the track is selected, we'll discuss a date that suits everyone along with the car(s). The 30-lap event will also be a closed (private) lobby to help minimize disruption and potential griefers.

 

[Nick Cannella]

I'll be there.

 

[LineR32]

I should be able to make it for GT-R one this weekend.

 

[LineR32]

R35 GT-R's don't go lower than N500.

 

[Satomiblood]

R35 GT-R's don't go lower than N500.

Alright. I scratched those two off the list.

 

[Satomiblood]

Poll closes in 30 minutes. Get your votes in if you don't want to race 30 laps around Kyoto.

@LineR32 @Nick Cannella @RadStewart @Tomsoft @hirnsauger69

Kyoto (Y) is the destination for the 30-lap race. What should the car(s) be? My vote would be Group C Classics like the Jaguar XJR-9 1988, Nissan R92CP 1992, Mercedes-Benz Sauber C9 1989, and the Mazda 787B 1991, but I almost feel like they would be more suitable to a separate LeMans event. What are everyone's thoughts? Please state a class that interests you and I'll put together a new poll later this week.

 

[Nick Cannella]

We just got done driving the Mazda 787B in Snail, so I am very familiar with that car and the way it handles. I like it. I would also be interested in the MB Sauber C9.
