I should running 8:15 for race pace so well see how that works out. I could push a bit faster but I dont think its worth the risk of damage lol.

I am waiting for confirmation from Brad that he still needs a car. I will cover him if he still needs one.

Two requests for tonight...

Since you said no weather, I assume the Changeability will be at 0. I think it would great if you put the Weather at Race Start setting at 25%, that way it will not be completely clear skies the whole time - but still mostly sunny, and still no surface water accumlations to worry about.

Also, in order for most to get two laps of qualifying in, could we allow for 30 minutes of qualifying? If you want to start 10 minutes early, to avoid delaying the start too much, that is an option.

Brad has a car.

Was just gonna go for 1 qualifying lap cause I hate waiting, but we'll use the whole 30 minutes then.

Weather will be at suggested 25% with change at 0, along with time progression.

Did two laps practice for tonight. Offline mode - Tire Wear and Real Grip ON. First lap was an 8:08.6XX second was an 8:04.3XX. Few trick spots, almost had a wipeout my first lap. Think I'll go steady and consistent for the race.

 

[kirktreks]

No biggie on the qualifying. Others asked about it, and I know you sometimes run longer quals. Even with extra time, our sometimes last minute arrivers might only get in one lap, even if they are just 5 or 10 minutes late.

I am good either way.

 

[Endless-Wilso]

Is 9pm when we should join for Quali or should i join now ?

 

[kirktreks]

Qual starts @ 9 PM ET - room will open soon, if not already - alefin's lounge. I will be joining shorly.

 

[Endless-Wilso]

Good race guy's 👍 hope to see you guy's around again.

 

[racefan88]

Good race guys, I left after I took bad damage again early in the lap, I would've just been too far out of it.

 

[ugabugaz]

Race was great. Shame Top 3-4 got separated so early on. Still kicking myself for going with a stupid Automatic...Should have done more testing pre-race but oh well. 15 Player turnout - crazy.

Funny my car is represented with a green chip in your screenshot Endless seeing as how it was Orange

 

[TomBrady]

Can we kick MXPWR from the league? LOL he's too fast

 

[kirktreks]

Uga - Not sure I would be too suspect of color chips getting scrambled. I have seen it before. Still, you are orange in my screen snapshot of the race result.

Also, I met my "happy" goal - 4 of 7 laps were in the 8:45 and under range (excludes 1st lap rolling start and last lap incomplete). And the others were under 9:00, even my pit lap.

Except for Uga and Ty, all the old guard was at the back of the pack. That's okay, I am happy chasing after my old friend and nemesis, elmo. I know Uga is glad to have some real competition.

What a great turnout. We have picked up so many great drivers in the last few months, plus a couple of new faces this week. We are glad to have you. Thanks all!

I was pretty content with my finish, believed I had a top 5 car, but was plagued with damage almost every lap, 6 pits in 9 laps xD, but oh well, there's always next Sunday, lol
