IRS | Toyota 86 Racing Series | Mondays 9p EST | BIG FINALE TONIGHT: Dragon Trail - Seaside II

What’s radar?

I know of two of you already in here, but how many people race on the track IRL? Road race, AutoX, rally, drag race, street race even, etc.? Just some friendly conversations. I suppose I’ll start. I race an FRS in both Course and AutoX running SM class. As of the end of last year I placed 2nd for Summer series, and 1st for fall series. Currently running 275/35/18 Federal RS-rrs on Rays Gramlites. E85 tuned, Speed by design turbo, Apexi coilovers, various Cusco suspension parts, full exhaust, stop tech brakes and lines, etc. etc.. Sponsored by Mishimoto, TrackSpec, P3 Guages, and Hot Sticky Tires (Federals). I know I enjoy on track and a lot of the on track guys play Sims off the track as well. Just curious to see if any of you guys race as well. It’d be interesting to see what everyone else is into.

I just run auto-cross at the moment in my '16 Mx5 club. My race car is my daily car as well unfortunately. Because of that I'm merely in C-street. Looking to do time trials this year and as many national events as possible.

 

[Thanksteeds]

I race AutoX (STR) with MaiCoh in my ‘17 MX5 Club. I do as many HPDE’s as I can afford, and intend to put more focus on that this year. For mods I have a header/full exhaust, FEAL 441+ coilovers, karcepts “nascar style” front sway bar, tune, wilwood 2 piece front rotors, and 17x9 Konigs with RE71R’s for race days. Sponsored by mom & dad.

The last part is a joke.

 

[Cnastynikka]

Lol sponsored by mom and dad.

 

[Cnastynikka]

I’m actually kind of curious to see what kind of lap times I’d put down in your car @Thanksteeds You drive mine and I drive yours but for a few hours. That way we have time to learn each other’s car. I feel like with the REs and mine being without the turbo, yours would still be faster. Even at Musselman Honda Circuit

@PApunk924 @Ak23 @hirnsauger69 @Infineon @Thanksteeds @Cnastynikka @MaiCoh

Can everyone please confirm if they are racing or not so we can get a head start on the finale score sheets. If you are also around tonight, be sure to check out the IRS VW Scirocco Cup season finale at Nurburgring N24 Layout. Should be fun. 9pm EST like this series.

 

[GTP_Guido]

Confirmed

 

[Thanksteeds]

Confirmed. I don’t see MaiCoh on the list, but he should be there too.

 

[DesertPenguin]

Sorry forgot to add him to my quick list for copy/pasting. Cnasty too?

Yessir!

 

[whiteusagi]

Unfortunately due to my work schedule I will be unable to participate for this week and next week’s races, sorry.

 

[GTP_Guido]

Any adjustments to the track limits?

Any adjustments to the track limits?

Unlike the last time we ran at Red Bull Ring I will not be a track limits nazi. Use common sense and if you go all four off and keep an advantage just let off the gas a bit to even things out. I don't think anyone is going to drive all over the painted areas for speed as they are incredibly slippery. Let's have a good clean fight!

Thanks, I totally agree with you.

 

[jayr1399]

In for tonight.

 

[DesertPenguin]

Thanks, I totally agree with you.

I know you weren't racing with us in that first season but were you following things? I thought it was funny that you brought up Red Bull Ring

 

[Infineon]

My son is snowed in from school and wishes to take this opportunity to participate in FIA races. So I gonna let him have my wheel tonight. I won't be racing tonight.

 

[Frozone44]

So I should get home around 8:45 tonight and see if i can hop into this run. Is their a place where I could download a basic livery that complies with the rules?

 

[DesertPenguin]

I can make a basic one in a solid color for you if you like. I know some guys here enjoy making liveries and wouldn't mind making something with your input. What colors would you like and any other major decals or just the bare necessities?

The room opens at 9pm for practice and racing starts at 9:30 if everyone's ready.

Awesome. I can certainly come up with a request for a livery. Even though its not a Gt86 It would be cool to have my IRL car mimicked in the game. Who would I ask about that?

 

[DesertPenguin]

I saw your photos in the livery request thread. It's quite detailed so it may be hard to recreate exactly. Would you be able to find any image files of the designs on the car? Here's a link to the decal request thread. You can post the images there and someone can try making the decals to then make the car.

For tonight at least I can do something basic

[DesertPenguin]

I don't know why it took me this long to realize I don't have people's racing numbers next to their name on the driver list. Can everyone please post their number so others joining know what's taken? Thanks guys. Sorry I never thought of this.
