Just signed up for this, currently without a team or a name and will happily take someone as a teammate as long as they won't soil my car or anything like that.

It's pretty clean in the OP, just read it over a few times. It's like a good piece of sheet music, no one will just get it on their first try.

But you don't have to worry about qualifying tomorrow night. RT just said that Sunday night is when qualifying opens for the following Sunday's pre-season race at Spa. Meaning you have a whole week in which to practice then figure out when the best time for you to qualify is. Most of us who aren't that busy on the weekends wait till Saturday to qualify so we can get in all of the practice we can for a good time.

You'll see certain people qualify early in the week as well, those people usually have limited time during the week so they figure that getting their quali. "out of the way" is best for them since they don't feed off pressure as much. Some people even qualify early just to psych out their opponents if they know they already have a really good pace. It's a really fun way of doing things and we've been doing it this way for a year now across multiple series and it's never let us down. Make sure to read the "gridding procedure" over and over again as well btw, so you know how we get in qualifying order on race day, which is the next question I'm sure you were going to ask.

The most important thing to remember though, and why you should really take your time, is that you only get one shot, absolutely no "re-dos."

It's sort of like qualifying in real life major series like NASCAR. Where they qualify the day before the actual race and only do two flying laps to set your time except we're not all forced to qualify at the same time, but can choose our own, which is nice.

! I can't believe I missed the generic colour bit in the Registration heading, I hate when people do that to me in the Suzuki Swift series, so I apologize, I'm just going to blame being tired.

Anyway, the colour I put is a bluey-green colour shift.

I have registered for Division 1. I'm pretty sure I can make at least 3/4 of the races.

I tried adding weight to get 50/50 weight, but it just set me back to 37s.

Very excited about this. I can only do it in Division 1, though.

Whatever division you register for, you have to stay in.
