Hurray anthony! Welcome to season 2! And maybe for the Nissan. Nitro has taken the Nissan, but he's going on a vacation (and he seemed frustrated at the turnout today) so he may give it to you, maybe not. But if you could have a gt car back up, that'd be great!
And it is a bit late shin, sorry!

Alright. Sorry I wasn't there today. No internet at the lake house (der ain't no eeenternet up heer) lol northern accent!
But Anthony, maybe you two should try to work it out, it's a Weird situation. Anthony it may be better to choose a gt car, but maybe... Ehh, I'm not sure what to do...

There was only one GT driver today. So GT would be a wise choice.

Let's try to get a few ALMS people if we have spots left over at the beginning of the year. Their season is almost over.

I got it, just seems as a whole, the gt class was lacking today (I wasn't there, no Internet)
And Cnd, that'd be great! But, I don't want people to do something they don't want, but it'd be great if they would.
We have some spots open yet!

That's right. I wasn't going to push it, but if I was practicing with them or something I would invite them.

Sorry that the ITCC ran late. We had some "errands" to run. Something about (inevitably) removing teams.
Also, race 1 was 10 minutes longer than we wanted. Then, Race 1 also started behind schedule, because I forgot to change the lap count after the one lap race that set the grid for qualifying.
I'm also sorry that I couldn't make the race. My parents were both very
at me. I stayed up (yes, the entire night) Wednesday night/Thursday morning. I had to let some family members in, because they didn't have house keys or anything. So, I stayed up all night, to ensure that they could get in; my parents both work the afternoon shift. They wouldn't have been able to wake up, if I had gone to sleep as well.
They're still mad, that my sleep schedule is as awkward as it currently is.

Polar, I am not interested at the gt class. When I won the first season I told you that I would continue at DP class and I thought that the winners of the both classes had priority to choose the car. I made all the first season, I always compete, only lost one or two races because my shoulder operation. So, I will be there to compete at DP class like nitro's reserve but, If I can't compete at DP class, I will not run and I'll wait for the next race like reserve again!

Alright. Thanks for the honesty!
Nitro, I'm kinda leaning towards giving him priority on the spot, he came to all races (shoulder operation kept him out for a few) and you didn't come for like Internet issues or what not...

Surely we'll be making sure that all of the currently registered drivers in DP come to races. Season 1 (hahah
) I think we had filled every spot in DP, but no one really came after Daytona. Well, we'll be making sure that it doesn't happen in season 2. I promise. Even if I don't officially run (organize (not race? Me? NEVER)) this series, I'll be on everyone's tail about only keeping the guys who actually race.

Alright, to keep active drivers only in this series, I'm putting in a rule of sorts, that will eliminate inactives.
You MUST attend one pre season race! Only excuse is if you have a reason. Not a "I wasn't feeling it"... I'm going to need a more detailed explanation than that. Anyone who hasn't added me on playstation, and attended at Least one pre season race will be removed.
I dont care who you are. You have to show up. It's pretty simple, and be clean. It's better to be slow and clean than passing cars dirty.
Most of all, these rules are so that we have fun, clean races this season, hopefully with more people than last season!
Hope to see you all at the track this weekend!

We have more drivers than cars in DP. You certainly can't skip races without warning/stating it on the forums.
In my ITCC, I've had to remove 5 drivers (at least, as there are still some drivers who haven't showed up at all) due to attendance. We have 20+ drivers with good standing in that series. But, we have a few with poor standing.
In the Rolex, where we're, as yet, running only one division, attendance is even more important.
It's not fair to the drivers who do show up, or to the drivers who don't think that they have a seat.
You don't see Formula 1 drivers missing races.
Certainly, we ARE human, and we will accept the "I was sick." or "My dog ate my homework" or the "A spider got stuck in the water spout" reasons. But, you have to tell us. It could give us the chance to contact a reserve driver, and fill out the field.
Our goal is to ensure that everyone finds someone to compete against. Therefore, we ask that you simply tell us, "I can't make this race."
This week:
StormPacer17: medal ceremony/football presentation
polarbear345: cottage trip
myself: parents
not letting me on.
ft...: sick, (possibly vomiting etc. and even I'd rather be near a toilet than playing a game.)
Certainly, none of these drivers should be punished. They gave us a valid reason. That's all we ask. Preseason hasn't even begun yet, so it's OKAY, too, if you missed today. We only ask that you come to races, or let us know.

I was a little scared reading all this until the last few sentences by MrMelancholy. Sorry for not attending today, family time was longer then expected. And then (being an honest man) I forgot. 
I'll leave reminders for next week.

Perfect example. I can't honestly even think, for a second, that anyone could be mad at you for that. But, last season, we had someone sign up, and then never came to a single race! We're not allowing that this season. Little blips in an otherwise good attendance is fine.
We're sorta like a high school. If you go on a trip with your family, and come back and get caught up, and apologize to your teachers (Polarbear345,) you'll be allowed to stay, and you won't fail. If you skip out to smoke narcotics or some other waste of time, and it happens every week, you'll be out.

D's not online right now. Ummm, yeah, I think he means that Seth and Anthony should be the Nissan R92CP "dream-team." I think that Polar means, that you might be a Nissan reserve, or might get put on a different DP team, if one of the DP drivers doesn't come.

I know that. I'll just probably go to GT.

If that's what you want; there's a slot open for the Chevy. Haha, two in fact. Some mistake where I'm registered for both the Camaro and RX-8.
I also noticed that Kevin's a DP reserve.
That's too bad.Similar threads
