TURTLE RACING LEAGUE - FLEX Racing Series - ACCEPTING MEMBERS!

Hey guys I should be racing tonight.
Hope to see some of you there. The Elise is a very fun car to drive.
Sorry for double post.
 
I'm going to sit this one out because I didn't practice at all with this car and track combo, and like last night, I fear another monumental collapse, especially with heavy damage set to on. I'll race this course in my fully modded Lotus (not my own tune, as I'm tuning inept) on my own time. Good luck with the race.
 
I'm not gonna be able to make it for a couple of weeks. Work day rotations. Ugh. I'll still make a couple of practices in the next coming weeks.

Great racing tonight everyone. Thanks for coming out.

I started to join the lounge for Race 3 but there were so many drivers I didn't want to mess things up in case it was during a race. I hope you guys had fun!
 
I had a blast. Race 2 was especially fun. Some struggled a bit with the combo but I really like how the car felt on the track.

During practice it was very tricky until the tires warmed up. But once the tires warmed up it was pretty good. I loved the combo. If I made a mistake in a corner you could just drift out of it if you used throttle control. Very fun!
 
Taking pics right now I have to ask MBOBB what green paint chip did you use? Very nice looking.
 
I'm sorry I missed last night. Sounds like you guys had a good time. I didn't get home from work till after 10 and then back in here at 8 this morning.

Next few races look like big fun.Hopefully I won't miss any of them.
 
Great fun last night! 👍 Race 2 was especially exciting, with a 3 car battle for the lead for most of the race. Unfortunately for me, I damaged my left front in the chicane with 6 to go. Cost me a shot at competing for the win. :ouch: That car sure was fun to drive, though.

I know I really fast in the final sector. I heard you guys talking after the race about how I was able to get into the final corner so hard. I, too, felt like I could brake late and get in pretty deep. Maybe brake balance/bias had something to do with it? I ran completely stock, BB and all.
 
I ran a 2/0 brake bias. Race 2 was great. Battling with you and Garage father for most the race. Good close and clean racing.

Rally Green Metallic. If you need a chip let me know I have lots.👍
Good racing by everyone. I'm just not back in the groove yet. You know knocking the rust off and all.

You should like this weeks event. ;) Maybe it'll help shake some of that rust off.

Race Recap

It's a fast and slippery little car. Running with Heavy Damage on a track with little to no run-off before the barriers made it that much more challenging. Congrats to everyone who showed up, welcome to FLEX LR_Vegas and welcome back MBOBB. It's hard to some up all of the action that happened between the 3 races. Lets just say that everyone had their share of damage, some bad needing a pit stop, others were able to run the race with it. Dolph won the points race and ended up in 1st place followed closely by Garge-father. Martin ended up in 3rd place with Shred-tec getting 4th. 5th and 6th place were held by the GTP's, tzracer got 5th while Ph7shr got 6th place. On his triumphent return MBOBB was awarded with a 7th place finish while Scorpion got 8th by completing 2 of the 3 races. LR_Vegas showed up for the 3rd race and locked down 9th place and also the fastest lap of the night.

The highlight of the night was race 2. Pretty much the entire race the leaders were battling it out. Rarely more than a second apart. Very close and clean racing! DolphDrago ended up with damage towards the end and couldn't keep pace in what would have been a 3-way battle for the win. Congrats to Garage-father for winning race 2, well deserved!

Track: Suzuka Circuit
Car: 2010 or 2011 Nascar

My brother also wants to race which is causing me to also miss practices if he has the right car
 
I would like to participate, I can do it? same color and number that I have in tyro series where required, thanks. (id hjhr75-08 color gray wheels white #88)
 
Hey guys,did this new update turn suzuka into a track made of ice?I think they moved it to Myrtle Beach too.i sure was in an awful lot of sand this morning.
That #99 ford was throwing up atleast 20 ft tall rooster tails of sand. HaHa.

Yes this friday going to be fun. This just keeps getting better.

I believe I'll turn this into a hp restricted race for myself. Maybe around 650 hp.That way I can keep it together in the turns.Not good for the straights though.I'll get it figured out.
Man what great cars and tracks you guys pick.Thanks
