There will be three races of about 20 minutes on sprint race days not counting warm-up races.

The first race of the season will be sprint format, next race will be endurance, and so on.

It is not required but would be nice if team cars ran the same or similar liveries.

See the Points section for information about team scoring.

I made a change to the track list and took out Laguna Seca and put in Road America. Let me know of any other changes you want to see. (I reserve the right to exercise my series director privileges, though.)

Do we want to have handicaps? If so, what kind?

Did you give the sheet time to load? It can take a few seconds sometimes. You will know it's finished when you see several tabs at the bottom.

Yep. sucked I couldn't get back in but thats FM4 sometimes...

I think it was just the middle of three bad gaming attempts

1) Got a 5% survival rate at WoT in 20 games!

2) Could race in FM4

3) Raced very poorly in FM5 Mini's. Damn Johnny and his wall!

 

EDIT: An actually there was 4th in there, I went to play AC:BF and it needed at 2.5Gb update.... angry

My first lap was terrible but then got used to Porsche after a while. Had a good 1/2 lap tussling with Zeratul, then (just about legally) got past him... 50/50 hit and he came off worse, sorry buddy

No problem Derek! I was on the edge of grip and that very slight bump was just to much, I messed up again later in the lap so Thane could get past but was able to use the porkers top end to claim back my 4th place at the line. By all of 0.019 secs! Thats close after 55 mins. of racing. Good fun and see you guys at the next race.
