It looks everything is set for this weeks race. This weeks race will be 28 Laps.

Current Qualifying Results:
D8859485_68769882_09126


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. We will have a full room b consisting of the full scheduled distance of 50 laps. On paper we should have about 6 500 drivers and no 300 drivers. It is important that all room b drivers show up to ensure the best product of racing for all drivers involved. We will also be tracking the laps done so if someone in room a exits early in the race, anybody who finishes more laps in room b will be given there position. Also the winner in room b will be given a points boost so you all are fighting for something.

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. People in room b will have priority based on qualifying results.

NEED A ROOM B HOST​

Good luck! 👍
 
Great turn out for the 500 drivers, and come on 300 guys we need yall here to make a good room B like we had first few races.
 
really thought i wasn't gonna make room a after i choked in qualifying but made it and im coming im driving a tank tonight but im bring it all race long ;) can't wait
 
If anyone got any practice lounges open before the race post the room number please so i can join
 
So is this race like a two stopper? Really hard to tell...

Depends on the pace you run, with weight added to my car and a lil tune up I can run 2.04.9s roughly for like 3 laps, then it starts to fall off decently cuz of tire wear. Idk I might be able to do like 8 or 9 lap stints and hope the 500s lap us 300s twice.
 
heading down to Atlantic City for the night. really wish i could make it tonight but AC is calling ;) see you guys for the next round hopefully
good luck
 
T- 2hrs till race room will open. Is everyone ready, i know i am ready to lug around with my weight and hope for the best.
 
I'll open or join a room in 20 minutes for some practice before the race.

I don't see any room numbers posted at the moment so I'm assuming no rooms are open.

I may just make it. Just... Apparently this wedding ends 30min before race start. And I live pretty much 30min away.
I know you all got a NASCAR race to watch and you're already cutting it close so I won't ask you to delay race start.
Will update with more details as the night goes on.

It also sucks that Neil Armstrong is dead.
 
:( guess we all have our time someday.

We also all thought that we would never step foot on that big grey thing in the sky...

I know growing up all I wanted to be was an astronaut and the only thing I knew growing up was Neil Armstrong... We shall dedicate tonight's races to him 👍

I dont have a problem waiting a few minutes for you. :)
 
I got a message a few minutes ago from Brad, he says he'll host room B. Sorry I wasn't able to get ahold of him earlier heh
 
I may be up to 20min late...
If you guys in room B could wait maybe and ill start from the back? Or you can both start its alright.
Just send me a message on PSN if you start either room so I know what's going on

So, Mike, funny story. We got that freak rain storm out of nowhere, but it decided to hold off just until 6:15. :banghead: I can't catch a freaking break anymore. I got home right at 7:00 so I was just too late. My luck, f my luck. 🤬:banghead::lol:

Edit: At least I get to see the NASCAR race.
