Didnt you guys do a Clio Tuned event already?

 

[kart racer]

Yes, but at the end of the month we open it up. With only so many Pro events, we have to get creative.

 

[clacksman]

The final TPRA event of the month usually collects every car we've used at that race previously in the month. This 'Open' is new.

Hopefully I can get in on this, gonna dig out my Z06 or 599 or something else strange.

At first I was thinking "oh no, its going to be just a bunch of tuned clios"

Then I realized we will be put in order by our qualifying times.

I'll most likely bring the Ferrari F40. I expect a qualifying time of a 2'08 flat -/+ 2 tenths

looks like a clio event to me, you guys got any practice times set? tonight?

 

[TN2004S4]

This is going to be so intense man....

 

[Ghoa$t]

*realizes he has to beg NTSC to come out to race*

It's so very funny, but it so very true

I'm down DK a little after 9PM bro.👍 I'm sure I can get more NTSC guys to run with us tonight....

 

[clacksman]

The practice sked is busy, I'm told. In the :37 now that I have power.

 

[kart racer]

Practice times are 07 and 37

 

[EERS4YEARS]

You guys still planning on changing your start times if I show up?

 

[kart racer]

No.

 

[EERS4YEARS]

Great to hear, thanks buddies. Sorry for pissing TPRA ,as a whole, off. not my intention at all.

I'm thinking of showing up for this, though being a west coaster, 9pm EDT for posting a qualifying time will be a bit challenging.

What is the procedure for generating a qualifying time? Can the lap have been run at any time, or must it be run today?

A lap from today is not a must, just bear in mind that qualifying times are used to sort drivers into up to 3 groups based on the lap time submitted. A representative lap of what you can currently achieve is fine. Hope you can make it.👍

And, EERS4YEERS, thank you for the apology.

edit due to still being last post: Q'd, 599, 2:07.325
Can only get R2s on it, I brake kinda early because of this.
See ya tonight, all.

Don't forget to update your HOME before the drivers meeting!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Tuned Clio, 2'05.649

I was able to come close enough after running a 5 lap warmup for me to be comfortable with that as a Q time.

Cool. You filled out the form linked from the OP, right?

 

[Vaxen]

I don't see any form or link in the OP...

 

[clacksman]

Neither do I, now that I look. It seems Kart Racer is babysitting this one. Posting should do.

 

[kart racer]

Your in Vaxen. See you at home.

 

[kart racer]

Vaxen, how did you like the event last night?

 

[Vaxen]

The racing was great, the organization was also very impressive. 👍

I won't be able to participate very often, but will definitely catch a race every now and then.
