Congrats Dangit. Good race. Scorpion sorry about the bump, doh.
Reminder to self: don't pit... Idiot!

I figured why not give it a shot. Front tires were shredded by the end.

No you gave it right back. I was on conserve tire mode anyways . It was really ok, I was laughing actually ! Those first laps were fun as hell!

I didn't read all the last minute thread stuff. I also had no clue about all you one stoppers. I guess it's fun to tip toe. Or tap dance or whatever it is. Sorry Sammy Davis's. Jr's'er's'z'z's.
 
Congrats Dangit on a good run (told you, you could do it!). MIke and cB great racing with you guys last night it was some pretty tight quarters there for awhile. Glad that race is over.

Thanks. It wasn't easy to pace down just a tad to conserve tires. My inner Ricky Bobby wanted to hammer down.
 
Yep, a bad decision on my part to pit. Hitting it hard in practice I could get 15 laps and lose 3 seconds. Figured I'd pit early and get it done. Sure didn't expect any no pitting this time. During the race my tire wear was excellent but didn't think they would last till the end. Good thing my kids were asleep upstairs so they didn't hear the names Daddy was calling himself! Oh well, that was one of the best runs I've had in our races-pre pit that is.

Glad you got a win Dangit after your tough break last week.

Other than hitting a really whacked out draft "thingy " on the first lap and crashing.... I had a great race. I had an okay qualifying position and then ended up last after crash. I went without a pit. I think I made it back up to where I should have been.

I had some excellent racing with Logan and scorpion. Real clean and fun. I was sorry to see each of them have problems.I didn't think I was going to have fun but I did.....even without a beer!

Congrats dangit! See, tire management CAN be your friend.:sly:
 
Congrats dangit 👍

That was a lot more fun than I expected. I felt lucky to qualify 6th considering I didn't practice at all until an hour before the race. The start was crazy, the cars in front of me were all over the place for the first couple of laps. In almost every turn all I could see was tire smoke, so I tried to stay back far enough to stay out of trouble, but not far enough so that RR would be right on my tail :nervous: After a couple of laps, the weird stuff cleared up and it was good racing, I picked up a couple of positions when guys spun out and was tailing JT, he was in third and I was fourth and when he pitted on lap 13 I just followed him in..... bad mistake, lol. I could make it easily without pitting, but for some reason I got my series mixed up and thought that pitting was mandatory.:guilty:
 
So do we have an accurate lap count?? My suggestion was 35+1.

Also I'm in favor of the group of 3/4 qualifying for 5 mins at a time for this race as well. It keeps the clutter down and speeds up qualifying.

I agree with the lap count. I'm also in favor of the way we did qualifying last week. We don't need 20 minutes of running laps for qualifying. The new way keeps the lap traffic to a minimum. Besides, each guy should be able to knock out a fast lap in 5 minutes. At less than a minute a lap you have time for a warm up and 4 hot laps.

An indication of all drivers becoming more skilled. Nice.

Agreed. Also rr is correct I'll update the thread later, at work now.

Happy Easter everybody! And to those that don't celebrate it I hope you have a great day as well.

Is a Nismo car allowed?

I believe DJ said no tuner cars. I'm pretty sure that's considered a tuner. Try the 370Z. Its a mid 34 car with rear aero

I had 270R, just couldn't remember what Nismo was considered.

I'm in favor of this too, worked great at Eiger. Narrowed my car choice down to 4 cars now! Still working on not spinning out. Fun track if you hit it right. What are the hot lap times? I've run low 54's.
