Count me in for the October season. Driving. I can't tune.

I've added you. And a remind to everyone, no draft. Find a team mate, find a tuner. You can look in the second post to see who is up for driving and tuning. You can also recruit anyone else that you'd like.

This season will be much smoother than last. It is all just one single car, no parts, just tuning.
 
I am interested in driving and I have no teammate / team. So I am looking to either form a new one or become part of a team looking for a driver. I already got the car, just needs tuning.

According to the 2nd post, these tuners have no team / drivers?

# zeromisfit999 (lifesagamble420)
# OwensRacing (OwensRacing) (possibly drive, too)
 
This Tuesday will be a Tuning Prohibited practice in these cars. Don't worry about teams, just bring one of these. I want to test out the format and ballast system.

I didn't think ballast was allowed when tuning is prohibited? :dunce:

I might be able to turn up tonight for some practice :)

That's right, we'll have to allow it after the first race, but I think we can all be trusted to not do any other tuning except for ballast.
 
Sorry Random. I already hooked up with Oshawa-Joe.

I'll update that.

Kaz is such a freaking tool.

As Dabney pointed, out, we'll lift that restriction after the first race.

I'll also be limiting the lobby to the non-broken in power output, so people don't have to worry about having it broken in (unless everyone has it broken in). We did have it in the Sunday line-up, so I have it broken in, and painted yellow.

Mine is broken in and purple.

EDIT: #76 and the purple from S.N.A.I.L. Sunday Nights :)

Although, Dabney and I should probably talk about that first, lol.

Just wanted to post this so everyone could see it. We have three teams, meaning we have six drivers committed.

We have another five, maybe six, drivers that need are interested. As Wolf points out, we also have two tuners interested in supporting teams.

I think twelve drivers would make for a fantastic season.

Dabney and Cheeb, and Joe and Spooble, feel free to lay claim to some colors.
 
I guess I'll just do a quick tune myself tonight and go solo. Should be fun. #22 is my number.

No tuning tonight. Don't even need to break it in.

Yes, tonight is just for testing format and ballast. Tonight is not really related to the actual series, which starts next Tuesday.

So no tuning tonight. No teams tonight. If you want to be in the series, you don't have to show up tonight. If you don't want to be in the series and just want to help us test, feel free to stop by.

Tonight is just for testing, it is nothing more than that.
 
Does that work even if you have engine tuning or weight reduction? I thought once you added one of those you couldn't be non-tuned anymore.
 
Garris... I don't quite understand what you're saying. Is tonight just testing??

What makes you think that?

I already fully tuned my car with weight and everything, Should I grab another one?

It is a premium and cheap as chips. Since we aren't adding parts (which means no more weight reduction/engine tuning) then you can just use another sheet.

I'm sorry I don't get to work from home any more and run my Bobs. I don't mind grinding out credits for people.

Correct, those things are permanent.

But beyond the weight reduction/engine tuning stages done during the RM change, no one should be doing those things. For this series, everyone's cars should have the same parts. The only difference should be the tunes applied to the aerodynamics, suspension, gearing, and if this RM comes with it, LSD.
 
I would like to retain the colour gold car with gold chrome wheels. I Will be driving number 17, spooble is 15.
 
Kcheeb and I are going with True Red cars with white wheels.
 
And you guys can run different color wheels from each other if you want, but you don't have to.
 
Does anyone want to be my team mate? I feel like the fat kid in high school waiting for someone to pick me. :nervous:
 
Exact same thing happened to me. I could hear other cars, but not my own engine or tires. Then my screen froze up.
