Well, postponing the race to the October 15th would be a good for me.

At October 1st, I'm competing at Global GT Championship and at October 8th, I'm competing at Bathurst 6 Hour by DRR.

4 PM EST is not 1 AM BST. 4 PM EST is 9 PM BST. 👍

Copy, I plan on doing both but that is me. Lol.

Anyway, I may change the time. Either today or tomorrow, need to look at time zones and figure it out to help everybody.
 
Start time has been changed and also listed as Coordinated Universal Time, or UTC, for ease of time zone calculation for our international racers. Please see top post for details.
 
Online room for the Monterey 200 at Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca is now open and practice has started. 90 lap feature race is scheduled to start at 7:02 am UST. Be sure to clear you cache date before logging in. Look forward to seeing everyone on track tonight!
 
Great race Damon. I know you were talking about changing the times for the next race. I was the only one from the uk there. I get up early so a couple of hours earlier would suit me. If it makes it better for you

Thanks Ives, either or is fine. For these races I am getting more interest from over seas than in the states so helping you guys out time wise seems logical. Maybe alternate times depending on race, will see.

Congrats again on the podium finish btw
