A few things to note after Texas.
1) @DGTR you need to register a team name. Other than that, you are set for the season.
2) People need to read up on the caution rules and call cautions when they happen. If there's two cars involved in an accident, or someone's crashed to the point of DNFing, then that's definitely a caution. Two missed cautions, which isn't as bad as I thought it would be, but still not excellent.
3) People need to get their pit strategies sorted out. Like immediately. There is no reason to blame the game when you aren't proactive enough to set up pit strategies in advance.

Anyways, Long Beach up next. Another opportunity to score a good result if you are smooth and cautious. Thanks to everyone that showed up for the start of this series. For what it was, it was fantastic.
 
Long Beach is this weekend, so time to confirm attendance.

Couple things to note regarding track limits.
1) Pit line goes all the way to the end of the yellow line leading into turn 1.
2) Drivers may use the tarmac to the right of the pit line as long as drivers aren't in the process of exiting the pit lane.
3) Pit entry line is the blue line next to the inside wall coming out of the final corner. As long as you hold part of your car inside the pit line when coming to pit lane, you won't be penalized.

@DGTR added you to the list of potential entries. Still waiting on team name.
 
Can someone tell me what the pole time was for Long Beach? Want to compare my pace to the guys in the league.
On default setups, pole time was 1:07.771
 
What was the lap? So because of that it switched to default?
His lap wasn't the only reason. A lot of people have no idea how to go about tuning in the game, which would be a massive problem in actually getting the series going.

Gotcha, As I mentioned to you before I have been involved with the IndyCar and leagues since it debuted on PCARS1. I am willing to send tunes if it would help. I will race when I can but not really interested in a Default series but I`ll race when I can.

And since I have everyone's attention, before Indy 500 qualifying this Saturday, there'll be the VRR Freedom 100, using the Formula Renault 3.5 cars with default setups. In the spoiler below is important details regarding the event's time and layout.
Procedure for the VRR Freedom 100 (All times in Eastern U.S.)
-Lobby will open at 12:00 p.m. for all drivers registered for the event to enter the lobby. At 12:05 p.m, a 30 minute practice session will begin, and drivers are able to join the session at any time.
-At 12:35 p.m, the session will end and transition to a 10 minute group qualifying session, with all competing drivers allowed on track at the same time.
-Once qualifying has concluded, the race will begin with a manual formation lap. Drivers will need to line up in rows of 3, with the pole sitter being on the inside lane of row 1. Pace speed for the formation lap is 75 miles per hour, and tire warming is not permitted.
-The race will be 40 laps, or 100 miles, with cautions following the VRR Coca-Cola IndyCar Series caution procedure, which is the lap the caution is called on, plus 4 full caution speed laps. Read up more on the caution procedure for ovals for that series in the applicable section.
-There will not be a green/white/checkered procedure. If a caution comes out on lap 35 or later, the race will end under caution.

There is also a list of cars available to reserve for the event, which is also in the spoiler below this.

And I'm in preference of before because I have to leave near the end of qualifying for my first kart race this year.

Confirming 500 entry

Entering Freedom 100

At the moment, I'm abit unsure my internet will even be able to be stable enough for this race or Saturday's race. For now I'll enter but the moment I begin to suspect its not going to be stable, I'm let you know before hand.
