Would the go karts be for both divisions?

If it were to happen then yes

 

[Jw_wk1010]

Unless we had to split lobbies again then I don't see why d2 would have to honestly

 

[BradESPN]

So I've done every race so far this season and plan to make just about every week, is there no way to be upgraded to fulltime?

The way to be "upgraded" to an official driver is to do what you did - say so on this thread.

You're an official driver now, which based on the current standings means you're all but guaranteed to get Prize A next week.

 

[BradESPN]

I

I think if I understand right u wouldn't be considered full time until next season or that's how it worked for me

Well, the only reason you couldn't become official last season is because you missed the first 3 weeks (so there's no way you could have met the 6 of 8 races requirement).

 

[Neutty]

I see, sorry @MSgtGunny for miss informing you last night.

Well if that’s all it takes, I’d like to be an official driver too since I plan on attending weekly

Last nights race was a ton of fine. I had a couple of mistakes in the first 20 minutes or so which torpedoed my race and threw a wrench into my strategy, and I ended up staying in last the entire race all by myself. I literally didn’t see another car after the first 30 minutes past until about 10 minutes to go when I got lapped. It was pretty lonely but there’s something cool about hotlapping and trying to grind away any time you can, all while knowing battles are going on elsewhere on the track.

Most of us have 8+ endurance races under our belt.

There is an added element of racing with damage on strong that makes things tough to start, but it's much more fun.

 

[MajorBlixem]

Since we are on the question of to be or not to be.... sign me up full time.

My only chance of @TEX36 not lapping me is to race every week to get better

Or get promoted to D1, then you get the moral high ground over @TEX36

 

[Sean Renon]

@TEX36 I think you can handle D1 - sounds like all the D2 guys are afraid of you...

 

[TEX36]

@TEX36 I think you can handle D1 - sounds like all the D2 guys are afraid of you...

I have been very fortunate in avoiding damage - that is the only difference.
A steady, risk-averse Pace is my target each week. Nothing other than that.
Surprised by the comments, truly.

 

[Herimopp89]

I think TEX and I are just about equal only difference is maybe I take way to many risk pushing the car to the limits and then receive damage likewise.

Reminds me of Neutty...

 

[Jw_wk1010]

I think I need to be demoted

 

[Herimopp89]

I think I need to be demoted

D2 would be a wrap then

 

[Jw_wk1010]

D2 would be a wrap then

Lol I don't have the pace of gunny or neutty I just try to limit mistakes

 

[Sean Renon]

Lol I don't have the pace of gunny or neutty I just try to limit mistakes

Second two weeks in a row in D1, but you need to be demoted... C'mon.

 

[Jw_wk1010]

[MajorBlixem]

.....and then get lapped by you!

 

[Sean Renon]

Which is exactly why Tex should drive up, and you should stay.

Endurance racing is endurance, whatever pace I had, or fastest laps I set mean nothing if I crash the car with 15 minutes left and I'm fairly comfortable in second.

Lol I don't mind honestly @Neutty has helped me with little things to find more pace now all I have to do is find gunny speed

 

[Neutty]

I can’t find gunny speed, please let me know when you find the secret.

 

[Jw_wk1010]

Race Hards lol that's his secret

 

[Herimopp89]

Did you try r1,r2,l1,l2, square, triangle, circle, and x at all

 

[Whitey093]

Yep. Gunny is beating us with a well formulated pit strategy, not outright pace. I watched the replay from last race and he started in the back, patiently moved forward by minimizing pit time and staying consistent and never appeared desperate or rushed. Smooth and steady all race trusting his strategy while the hotlappers fell one by one. This is endurance racing.

Hey who u calling a hot lapper big bully

 

[BradESPN]

Sounds like the rolling start bug has been fixed - you just have to create a new race from scratch. I've been re-using the same template every race, which has apparently just been copying the bug forward.

@Herimopp89, just in case you host D2 again next week, you might want to delete the settings you've copied from me.

Got it I will make a room once we have a combos picked. Just in case we need two rooms agian. Unless that is someone else would like to host for this week.

I don't know how my fellow d2 drivers felt but it sure felt weird not having the d1 cars and battles around last week. I really like the factor that multi class racing brought.
