* No Blocking, racing line is not blocking

* During a Caution all chatter should be to a minimum, this will help get the cars in line for the restart
* You can call a caution if someone causes you to lose position during the race through physical interaction
* If you cause your own departure from the track, or accident or whatever, you cannot call a Caution.
* Once you call a caution, everyone will slow down to 30mph. Do not come to a complete STOP
* Racers go back inline. Restarts are single file.
* Room Host will call out a countdown, 3*2*1 GO, once all racers are grouped up (within a car length of each other) and up to caution speed (30mph).
* No passing on restarts until the end of following corner after the re-start of the caution or when the series coordinator calls “YOU CAN PASS”
* No cautions on the last 3 laps.

Am I reading that right, no engine/power additions at all?
What, you think 180hp in a car is not enough ??
Just ran a 1:24.313, and so far the car is actually pretty ok. It doesn't like climbing hills tho, so that's probably where the most passes are going to be made on Camino.
Can't wait for the race. Looks like these guys will take a pounding better than the trucks
we'll see how they run tomorrow, probably a lot of rubbing
I ran it in a group and it was good for the Armature racer (like me)...
I had fun running with you guys last night. Good racing and some nice paintwork on the cars too.
it was, the car held up pretty well...
I have to watch the replays but it looked like the two small circuits, Iberian and Ladera there might be no need for a handicap but the other two we need to put a handicap on the faster guys as they were almost 2 sec faster
The racing was much more fun than I was expecting! I'll have to tweak my tune a bit to make myself a little quicker. Gotta try to beat Imjimeez
Fun Little cars!!

Great racing last night everyone! I couldn't believe how fast Brown got! I'll be making a better showing once I get myself dialed into the wheel. I'll be back!

Looking forward to joining you guys. I grabbed a race number and posted my average lap time for Iberian.
So how does this work? Do you send us an invite tomorrow night?
Sorry it's my first time.
No worries Justin. I've got you on my f/r. El Kochino usually gets going @ 7:00pm our time. We run some practice laps to figure out handicaps. Then start race @7:30. Just how up and bring your Beetle : )
Perfect!
FYI, the Events Schedule is still titled Ford F-150 and still points to that Thread:
yeah, there is always a problem with that even page, I'll have it updated
I'm in. Looking forward to my first race with the group. How do I join come practice/race time? Do I look for the group or will I get an invite?
