[FM4] ProAM Extreme Cup Thur 9:00pm est - 10:30pm est
Get ready for the ProAM Extreme Series. The sries is gonna last two months and go a variety of tracks from small to big and winding. The car and tracks will test your driving skills against your competitors. Do you have what it takes to run the Extreme Cup?
[b]What is PROAM Racing?[/b]
In PROAM we run a handicap so pro and amateur can race together competitively. For this to work I need you to help determine what handicap you should be in. Keep in mind I am trying to keep everyone close. So if you are walking away or up front in practice maybe a bump up in handicap should be taken. All races are about 30 minutes. First five laps with caution, rest caution free. Because of Lag becoming an issue lately we will have Lag cautions up to 3 laps to go. With lag cautions you will get your spot back, regular cautions you fall in where available.
When?
Thursdays 9:00 - 10:00 Practice
Thursdays 10:00 - 10:30 Rooms Sorted Handicaps Determined
Thursdays 10:30 - 11:00 Race (All times eastern standard time)

So... anyone in for Thursday?
Tunes sent out, if I missed you let me know and I'll get the tune to you.
I'm in
Two month series? I'm in! Loving this little car!
Yeah, just a little different. Good car and tracks to boot.
I am going to MIA for at least the next couple weeks. We are moving back to Florida next Friday, once I get everything hooked up, I will join you guys on the track again. Hopefully I will have a easier time joining the lobbies this time.
Good luck on the move. Hope all internet problems get fix with the move.
I'd love to join, but I doubt that my connection will let me join into the lobby. I have no control over the router at my apartment in Toronto and I have restricted NAT, so I'm pretty much boned.
I will try to join in though, as every once in a while I can connect to Cotter and others, so we shall see. I've been missing my Pro-Am fix...
Count me in :)
hope to have the energy/ time to join this series. Started new job and the 10 hr days coupled with little sleep is deading me.
I think I can make it. I sent you a friend request, insanerc.
i'm in. Just trying to tune it now
Awesome racing last night fellas! Very fast times and hairy moments for all! I don't know if this is the first foray of the ProAm racing into A class, but I think it'll be an awesome learning experience for everybody. I miss the Fords already though, I think we got too used to being able to bang around 4-wide door to door through corners.
Maple Valley is going to be great though. See you all there next week!
For sure Voodoo !!! On all counts !!!
Had a great time last night once we got past lap 5.gif "18")
. Started in the back with Jimeez, worked our way through some of the crashes. But ended up in 16th @ last caution. Took me all race to catch up to MotoGP in 1st. Bothered him for the last few laps and was unable to push a mistake out of him. Made one last attempt on the last lap and pushed it to hard....got stuck in the orange sticky stuff and crleo got by and took 2nd .gif "54")
. I really like that track. Great car Sarcasmo!!!!! Can't wait for Maple Valley !!!! Thanks for the good times last night 2O4F racers!!!!!!
Reminder Race 2 of the Extreme Series tonight. will be on around 9:00pm est. Room or rooms locked at 10:00pm est to tetermin handicaps. Evryone is welcome, may need additional host if more than 16 show.
Too Late 2 get in??
P.S. Insanerc
Went to your storefront to check out the car...NOT THERE!
Not too late. I think build is on my x2O4FxProAM gt.
Insanerc...For my taste...Hairy back end but will try to feather more and concentrate more...Wish I could tune...Probably couldn't do anything anyway!!!
Wheels I just use the Jones tune.
Stewie-Surf
Just checked his storefront...He must of taken it down...NOT THERE!!!
Sorry Wheels...let me clarify....Sarcasmo Jones built the car for ProAm...look on x2O4FxPROAM storefront....thats insanerc alter ego....gif "18")
Is it Legal with Insanerc?
As I said before the build is on my x2O4FxProAM gamer tag. I sent a fr so I could send open build..gif "1")
Stewie was just refering to the original build. Jones built the Lotus for us. His tune is very good but can be tail happy. I think imjimmeez has a tune for the car if you want to hit him up.
Insanerc
I am good with yours...I am use to running last or close to it with SandBaggers like Brownie!!
Want to thank everyone who came out and raced with us last night. Loads of fun. Hope to you next week..gif "81")
Ain't it Thursday yet?
