Thanks again to @MaxAttack for the hosting. It was a blast as always.

That was some great fun last night, was worth dropping by as a late reserve. Can't speak for those upfront, but in that 2nd race particularly, the action was frenetic. Some amazing 3-wide+ racing in places it wouldn't usually work, but it did. Mid-pack was where it was at, so cheers to all :cheers:.

Anyway, I've shared the replays from both races if they're of interest.
With the following tags; tpc, oval, bbraceway.

What are the fuel and tyre settings for the RBJ?
 
Good afternoon chaps, my usual just before last minute confirmation of settings -

Car: Red Bull Junior, 100/100, Racing Medium Tyre, Tuning Off

Track: BB Raceway, 13:00 Cloudy

Format: 5 mins Q, 15 minute race, 30 minute race with mandatory pit stop (don't take tyres Kermit)

Other settings: TCS, ABS allowed, no other assists. Penalties off, Ghosting off, Damage off. Grip settings etc all real.

Boost and Slip - it's up to you guys, after we decided (and I overruled xd) last time out, let me know what you guys think will make the best race. I think we will see a bit of a skill gap in this combo perhaps. Let me know here or discuss on discord and I'll decide based on what I see as consensus.

Should be a good one, fun lap but much easier than the Shelby was, hope to see as good a turnout as R1 and R2. Cheers people!
 
My preference is no boost. I also expect tough competition at TPC races.
 
Sorry for the short notice, do we have any reserves that want my spot for tonight?? I’m not sure if I’ll make it or not.
 
I might only be able to stay for the sprint race since the first Nation's round starts at 6pm EST.
 
Hi, a last minute message but I'll not be able to make it tonight, sorry I didn't announce it earlier.
 
Agree, I thought it was a lot of fun, I was amazed how much the leaders managed to push T1 consistently.

Definitely a combo we could revisit in the future imo
I was braking at the arrow board between the 100 and 50m board and finished braking before fully turning in, then partial throttle through the apex before full throttle again.
 
@alex77 This is the series I mentioned. Good mix of cars at ovals for some close and fun racing.
Oh God, I haven't tested to fix the settings at all! Let me make sure I do that tonight.

Expect RH or RM tyre. See no reason BMB shouldn't work. Probably weak slip just to aid overtaking, but the braking zone should be nice and long this week.
 
There's a decent chance I won't make the next round unfortunately. Going on 3 days without power right now. I'm looking at getting a hotel room because it's way too humid to be without AC, and everyone else in my house is doing the same. Hopefully I'll be able to have internet by then...
