Come people! You need to get into this! Racing at it's best! I know the time slot may not work for some but this series gets my blood pumping and that doesn't happen too often. Join us next weekend for some top shelf racing! yes

I will try to remember this, but weekends are very unreliable of late.

Put me down for the Lancia, err the Lotus...

umm the BMW...(?)

Dang...

Okay, my mechanic says Ferrari or DeLorean, so, I'm undecided...

@Grim:

Thane62 is driving the BMW.

@Snappy:

You mentioned a manufacturers championship in the OP. I don't know how you planned to score it but I came up with something.

Points 6-5-4-3-2-1 because there are six makes. The single highest finishing make gets the points.

Totals after race 2.
 
[code]Manufacturer | Total | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 |[/code]

[code]Porsche      |    9  | 4 | 5 |   |   |   |   |[/code]
[code]BMW          |    6  | 3 | 3 |   |   |   |   |[/code]

[code]Lancia       |    0  | 0 | 0 |   |   |   |   |[/code]
 
Just an idea...

Hey all,

I'm new to both Forza and the club. I'd like to get into some series, and this sounds like fun.

I'm not sure about my Sunday schedule yet, but if I can I'd use my Lancia. I've got the specs, but if someone's got a build with those specs already, it's sure help. (I'm lousy at tunes.)

Same for a  livery. I'd buy one, or run vanilla? (Buyin' one's fair... )

And, if I can get it together, how does one get into a room? (Told ya I was a rook-kie... : )

Enjoy,

Mac

There was a smaller lobby tonight but the racing was still intense. The fastest lap times among the competitors were all close so it came down to mistakes /incidents. Imjimmeez overcame his 5 percent handicap and took the win in his Canon Sponsored DeLorean. Congrats Jim! GentlemanRacer pushed hard in his Porsche 911T to finish just .229 of a seconds behind Jimeez for second place. HundredthShrimp and his Ferrari GTO bounced back from the mechanical issues from last week to take a third place finish and score some much needed points. Oldschool, also in a Ferrari, had a problem in his cockpit early on but hunted Thane 62 down for a nice 4th place finish. Thane held on and brought his DeLorean in for fifth place. Viper brought his DeLorean in for 6th place. We missed several racers tonight and look forward to their return for the Bernese Alps Festival Circuit. 

See you all next Sunday at 8pm EST!

Tomorrow night - Bernese Alps Festival. Should be interesting. There were some very good races there when we did the shakedowns. Looking forward to it.

Is it possible to get in this series if I haven't made it the first few races?  Thanks.

They let me join after the 1st race, so should be fine. Attitude seems to be 'the more the merrier'. :)

4 flats, 2 cylinders and has to run in reverse  wink

Come on in clay, I have not raced with you yet I don't think. You were just leaving when I was coming in, but your reputation is well known.

Clay's a great guy, what little of his ass I've seen of him! cool

 He makes KC look a little slow at times. He ran off and left Josh and I the other night if that tells you anything. And I was in a fast car, as Josh found out! wink

You're more than welcomed to join in! Let me know what car you're interested in and I'll get one over to you. As usual, I am requesting that drivers sport period type paints. I have plenty for each car so once you've selected a car I can gift one over to you.

Recap of the Bernese alps race coming soon guys.

Thanks Snappy, I sent you a FR (Clay in LA)...I was looking at the points and seems no one was running the 037 so I built it up and have it ready for Road America.  Not sure how fast a lap you guys are running but it seemed all the cars were pretty close.  Look forward to getting back into some races with you guys.  Also: I have a pretty large crew (about 5 or 6) that I normally raced with and I am trying to get them to the site and join up.  We normally just race B class but have wanted to do some series races.
