Round 2 tonight at Blue Moon Bay Speedway Infield A. That's a mouthful lol

Just a reminder we may have some drivers this week that didn't race last week. Being that we are doing reverse grid based on points and they have 0 points they will start up front for Race 1. The order will be the order they enter the room in.

After doing some practice races with the rolling starts I'm coming around to it. It doesn't start you as far apart as I thought so we're still all close just not side by side.The new physics also make it a little easier to correct oversteer but you have to be quick with your hands on the wheel. Good luck tonight everyone!

I am terrified of lap 1 turn 1.

Might be late tonight but I'll be there

That's what rolling starts are for 👍

Might be late tonight but I'll be there

If you know you can be in the lobby by 9:45 I will make that the start time. Gives everyone more practice which is always good. You and @Ryan Kirk right? Is there any way you can get your boss to let you leave a few minutes early?

 

[TexasJDC]

Lol not work I have to worry about I got the kiddos going but normally they are in bed by 9:30 your time but if they aren't then I'm with them until they do....as for Ryan he locks up he is the boss.

 

[Jw_wk1010]

I will be there at normal time tonight

 

[Ryan Kirk]

I am terrified of lap 1 turn 1.

Thats the best corner of the whole race. It will make u pucker a lil.

Oh, I love the corner, but that corner with only 6 cars was sketchy enough. ha

 

[Herimopp89]

Yep thats where we kept getting bunched up last night there. Jw had sneak through tthetop and texas. It was funny. I had a front row seat for it all.

 

[Infineon]

I plan on running with you guys tonight if theres enough room. I haven't practiced, so I plan on chilling in back of field. Looking forward to it!

For you, of course!

 

[DesertPenguin]

Infineon, do you really want me to start you in last place for every race? Why don't you want to be in the championship? I never practice either but it's still fun.

 

[DesertPenguin]

Room up

 

[DesertPenguin]

Tonight saw some overly aggressive driving. I don't know if it had to do with impatience from the room issues or what but it's uncalled for and we know better. I will get a chance to look at all the replays tomorrow and make an assessment on how to go forward. Please bear with me and the other stewards as we take care of this. There may not be a statement until later in the evening so please be patient with us. Some of this is all new to me and I want to get it right for the betterment of all of us.

My opinion is that heavy damage is having the opposite effect. It seems the driver who is the victim of someone else's mistake is taking most of the damage.

Example: someone touches your bumper in a turn and you hit the wall head on. Who is really being punished?

drtecdru im interested in joining for the remaining races on wednesday nights i ran with @aceboy127 and he showed me whats up thanks

Well that's a recommendation if there ever was one, welcome! Show us a livery if you've got one ready 👍

 

[Infineon]

It has been brought to my attention that I caused some serious damage due to me breaking late. I just want to apologize for my reckless driving. @DesertPenguin this is why I don't want points for the championship and why I want to just chill in the back of the field, to avoid any conflicts.

 

[DesertPenguin]

I feel bad that you might not have anyone to race against all night but if you want start every race at the back then so be it. 👍

 

[Thanksteeds]

Thanks for the races last night. I know there has been some tension as a result, and I’d like to share my opinions after reviewing replays of each race.

There is no doubt BMBIA was a tougher track with regards to passing, and there were several incidents as a result. Almost everyone was at fault at least once throughout the three races, and almost everyone fell victim to someone else’s mistake. While many of these incidents could have been avoided, it didn’t seem any drivers had ill intent.

I also believe the conflicts would not have been present had there been a common chat for all parties. I believe communication in real time would have immediately resolved any issues, instead of allowing parties, while unable to communicate, create a grudge.

Thanks,
Joshua

How does everyone feel about joining the Discord server for IRS and using voice chat through that for the races? We can have everyone in one chat and it's through your phone.

This is the server invite link. It should work for everyone and never expire. I highly encourage everyone to join in.

I know for a fact I was racing questionable in the last race I conceded all the positions i took in question

 

[MaiCoh]

I like the discord idea. I also apologize for any contact I made, none of it was intentional. I'm still trying to find the best way to locate cars on my flank. Any contact I did make I did my best to give up the position, or I was usually the one to suffer the most.
Particularly want to apologize to Texas in race 2. Seriously thought I had cleared you in that turn.

It's understandable man iv been there thanks for the apology....best way to see other cars is using the radar
