NASCAR Truck Series S5 - Spurgy, Pepsi Racing Champions!

[james6653]

I'm gonna be at the test on Friday if I have nothing going on.

hey Furi, here's an idea, seeing as it looks possible for all entries in this series to be available for the first race, why don't we split qualifying over 2 rooms, then the fastest 12 go into room 1, and also automatically qualify for the 100 lap event, while room 2 race for the final 4 spots of the 100 lap event,

That way it would be like the real go hard or GO HOME!

Or we could do 11 drivers in one room & 12 in the other.

Can't multi quote on phone. Half those drivers are sharing rides, and tbh James I don't know why I let you take them all.. Gokart, if ya internet is better you are perfectly fine joining. Also the others I just realized never officially registered so may be removed from the list...

Ill miss the first 3 races so if someone who's running in my team wants to take my spot for them then I'm ok with that.

Haven't been able to update. Won't happen until tomorrow.

 

[MustangRyan]

I think James should start his own Truck racing series that offers a more friendly start time (6pm EST?) for those in the US. Between both series, there should be more than enough spots for everyone.

 

[Carbonox]

And I think there are some drivers who really shouldn't need to do a quali race to get in.

I was going on past evidence

 

[gokartman78]

I was going on past evidence

but you have no past evidence for these viggen and overdrive guys .

 

[Furinkazen]

They seemed fine testing. Anyway they are last ditch reserves, they have not even signed up on the thread.

 

[RedPartyhat]

Gokart, you ruined Spurgy's SC race and darn near ruined my race as well

 

[FlyingFox]

That is something I can't be accused of.

damn you and your ridiculously quick internet

 

[Furinkazen]

damn you and your ridiculously quick internet

Yeah

 

[FlyingFox]

damn you and your ridiculously quick internet

Mea Culpa

 

[Furinkazen]

Alright, not too long left now

What are people's thoughts before the season? Any pre season predictions?

 

[FlyingFox]

Hoping RPM win the team title

 

[jammy21]

I'm hoping to get my name in the drivers entry list
Then i'm hoping to learn some basic of NASCAR racing and get some points experience along.

 

[Furinkazen]

Just sent this to Jammy but I guess it serves a reminder to most drivers:

Tomorrows Truck race is a non-points race. One point it serves is seeing how new drivers are and they won't impact on any points.

If ya not confident in a pack, don't try and be a single truck hero pushing your way through, you will get no help as other people won't be confident enough to know you - hang back a little. Hanging back will also save you fuel depending on how you manage your throttle.

Also only push people in turns if they ask you to or you have no choice - Person A might be fine with Person B pushing them through, but Person C might not be wanted or trusted.

It's a learning curve, but also tomorrow with no points its a bit of fun. Buckle up and enjoy - Furi!

I'm hoping to pull a Dale JR, but may end up pulling a Danica I joke, 20 laps in I should be comfortable with the vehicle, then I will start making frie^nemies I will be gentle,
how far away is the race? ( I've done 3 world time converter's and come up different)
have we got a current driver's entry list for this event?

I reckon we have about 17 drivers ready.

Remember tomorrow no qualifying, the grid is randomly set. Setting to "Reverse Previous Race Results" when there has been no race should spice it up...
