Too early to say since I'm not sure if people will be upgraded to room A.

I'd prefer to race something, even if it's 10 laps.

Alright as of now we will say it will be 10 laps. That atleast gives you guys something to race for. Alefin, you can host and are responsible for results which Sinladar will confirm. I also suggest both of you save the replay just incase something happens and you can send it to me.

It looks everything is set for this weeks race. This weeks race will be 40 Laps.

Current Qualifying Results:
Green = locked in to room due to preseason victories
D8859485_66955821_603509


Just a reminder on how things will work. We will have the room open probably 30 minutes before 7ET that way we can get things set up and make sure everything is operating. We will probably get the race started closer to 7:30 just depends when everyone gets into the room. (Also takes a bit to do all of the regs). Be sure to follow my instructions when we are doing regs so we can get through it as smooth as possible.

When we are doing the pace laps remember that it is staggered rolling start so you are to keep a car length inbetween you and the next driver. Here is an image describing how to this:

500s will go first on the parade lap and will be allowed to get about a 20-30 second gap. Pace speed is 70 mph and is up to pole sitter to keep this speed. When the leader hits the start finish line that when everyone goes full speed. THERE IS NO PASSING before the start finish line.

Anybody in red on the qualify chart means they have indicated they won't be there. The room a drivers have been adjusted for this fact.

The people above the black line are racing in Room A and people below the line will be in Room B. Given we will only have like 2 people in Room B, it is up to them if they want to race or just let the qualifying results dictate there finish. Also if the Room B guys want they can race a shorter race since there won't be many people (IE 10-20 laps).

If you are in Room B stay tuned cause if someone in Room A doesn't show up they could be upgraded to Room A. If no one in Room B decides to race they will be given the position of there qualification.

Good luck! 👍
 
I'll be there in about 10 min.

Scratch that, dog wants to go outside. I should take her out eh. lol

Sorry ,m8 i have mean 2 is not possible i think.

👍 gotcha. If I was driving a 500 car I'd 3 stop it. Especially if your a run runner running good times, the fresh rubber may be the way to go.

I know the 300s will be two stopping it. (Atleast I will)

After what happened in the pre season race at Monza, I'm afraid to pit at all :scared: I may never get out!

2 might be better even if your slower here cause the pit is longer than most tracks & You go like 50 mph
 
Yes but i must drive heavy slow for 2 stops.

That where the fun comes in. If you can run laps times fast enough to overcome the extra pit stop then that is the way to go. 40 laps around here is a long time and if the time drop off from fresh to old tires is great enough then the extra pit stop will be the winning move.

:dopey: Can't wait to see how it plays out for your guys class

From replays it looks like 40 seconds in pit! So your going to have to make up that much time with your extra pit.

40 seconds per pit, 3 stops= 4 stints, therefore 10 laps per stint...3 stoppers have to be on average 4 seconds a lap faster in that extra stint...

hmmmm... That's tough then. All I know is if someone were to do it and pull it off it would be IMMORTAL or King. Anybody else I dont think can have the pace to make up that 40 seconds. Oh how fun it will be to see!
 
I just lost 33s doing a pitstop. 2 stopping you lose 24-48s in a pace drop off on those extra laps. So if you quick you can 2 stop, but there's a 9s margin of error for 40laps.. Which is 0.2s each lap you can afford to lose.

I know what I'm going to do lol
 
Time conversion check: 4 hours from now everyone needs to be in the race room. We will open it in about 3.5 hours to give everyone like a 30 minute extra to practice and stuff. Try to be on time guys 👍

Yeah its actually like 33-35 seconds in pit. I miscalculated from the replay.
