EURO - Thursday Night Spec Racing @21:00 GMT

A Series aimed at people new to 2O4F.

Races can be cautioned, so if you make a mistake and take a competitor off the track then you can call a caution.  This is done by clearly saying the words "CAUTION." 

The leader of the race must immeadiatly slow to about 50Mph and keep to the right, all following drivers must continue to close on the leader untill the last driver catches the field.

Places are given back and the leader will resume the race at the next opertune momement.   (Mid way through a hairpin is not a good idea)

 

Build the car to the spec and then tune as you wish.

 

So general race rules are:

30 ish minute races + Qulification is optional.

Cautions

Reverse grid (fastest to the back)

 

This will start in the first thursday of september and will run eveyr thursday.

 

The first car will be a clio RS 197

 

Build details:

Race Exhaust 

Race Brakes

Race Springs + Dampers

Sport ARB, Sport ARB

Hope so, i'd like to see more new people join in on this. 

We ran them last night and had some excellent fun in the clio, really easy to keep close to each other.   The focus needed work, but not much.

Well, from my uneducated point of view, and mind you I jumped out of the VW into the Clio, the damn thing doesn't like to turn...which is great if you're at the drag strip, not so much at Infineon.

Okay, i'll liven it up more.  Quite easy to do, just being mindful of making them too loose for the new guys : )

Nice, I'll try and make as much of these races I can! Tourni, interested in a Nissan 240SX (D class) as a future car? The one I have now is a good car for learning, easy to drive but not so easy to drive quick. It's got nice rotation and when you do it righ it goes light. Only tunable parts are the tire pressures and the diff.

Sounds good Zeratul - I want this to be a fully involved thing, so if you people want to run a car then we can :D  This is much easier to organise than doing that in the EUSL. 

 

This is why i reserved the 2nd post :)

This is what I am trying to copy:

 

They have the new car so just trying to adapt it slightly. I have all the yellow done just strugguling with the logos. I have the ELF ones and the Michelin one (thanks to VXRStus logo cars) other than that me at a lost sad

 

I wish we had matt paint aswell for all the cars.

 

And look how much that rim is poking out!!
