That will be plenty of practice if I say so myself.

 

[cnd01]

Sorry for double post, but will anyone be practicing this evening?

 

[R0ssingt0n]

James is a reserve, so anyone else who isn't a reserve can bump him down.

Not for this race I'm not I signed up before the third person did for the regular season I'm a reserve. With all do respect I say this to you Cnd.

 

[polarbear345]

It should be 'With all due respect'

And it should've been at the beginning...

With all due respect, I still haven't seen enough improvement to trust you on the track with 15 other cars. I hope you have, and I will gladly race with you if you have improved. As for right now, I think you need to show polar or myself that you can control a car.

 

[FlyinHawaiian77]

He did ok in a couple of races in the continental series. Better meaning he wasnt all over the track. He still has plenty of room for improvement.

It is getting better though. And thats a good thing. I would recommend staying in the continental series. Stay in the ST class, get competetive there and then work your way up. Everyone will be happy as long as you progress. 👍

Ya I have plans to do that if Polar does a second season of it after season 1. Polar and I have a deal going currently though.

 

[FlyinHawaiian77]

I wonder what lap it will be before everyone starts dropping like flies. I know one of my pits will have to be a little longer for a bathroom break. Unless I makw the stream faster. But then that could cause potential damage if I'm not careful.

I am drinking a ton of juice Friday, ad early Saturday so I can get it all out before the race. This Race very well may be won by bladder xD

And car specs will be updated once I get to study hall

 

[FlyinHawaiian77]

Another update to car specs ?

 

[R0ssingt0n]

Also though i should add i'm going to be ridiculously hungover for the race too. Going to be very interesting for me!

 

[cnd01]

I'm seriously considering putting a bucket right beside my wheel. I'm thinking I will make my second stop a bathroom break though.

 

[R0ssingt0n]

I'll see how the race plays out, if i can somehow go a couple stints accident free and build up an acceptable lead i may have to have a longer stop to run to the loo. What sorta time are we looking at for the race? couple hours?

I'm thinking 3 hours at the most. It will depend on how many cautions we have.

cool, going on 3 hours i'll be finished at about 1 in the morning... oh god haha.

Edit: Nope make that about 1:30

 

[FlyinHawaiian77]

Im gonna ghost it into the pits to buy me some extra time. My bathroom isnt to far from where I play. Might have to skip the flush and keep some hand sanitizer near by. Also gonna enforce the 3 shake rule.

What I'm going to do is pit in, complete the stop, and when the car pulls out of the pit stall I will pause it and then haul butt to the restroom. If you leave the car on pause coming out of the pits at Daytona, it will take the access road rather than go back out on the track. I should be back by the time the car gets to the International Horseshoe.

Ehh, I'd rather you pause it in the pits. That way your car doesn't mess someone up.
