Times sent, but only for GT1.:guilty:

I was a little to busy with other things this week to put in at least 1 effort in both classes. Also, I had to rush the GT1 time in because it was about 3 minutes to the deadline!:eek: I hope it gets posted...:nervous:
 
Obviously I'm a bit late to take part in the first race, would I still able able to run in the series?

Question re setup: There wouldnt be a setup as such would there? Im assuming this as they are arcade races or are you just after the quick tune screen?

Cheers,
Clint
 
After some :crazy: RL dramas .. times finally sent .. though i hope iv'e met the deadline :scared:
 
Ok shotgun .. time to hit the green button .. you can come out from hiding .
 
Guys, I will be leaving tomarrow for Colorado so forgive me if my responses are quite late.

Should ICallshotgun be on, you should be accepted. Not sure if the penalty from Super GT applies here.
 
I think that we are going to have to assume that something has happened to effect Chris's (ICallShotgun's) life and cause this delay!!!!!

Bare with him, if he can come back, he will!!!!!!
I have never known a more dedicated host, even more than myself!

I trust him to carry on with this if he can!👍

Neil
 
My sentiments exactly.
 
***Requesting an update***
 
After some deliberation, I will be taking over this series and have it resume. Should ICallshotgun return, I will unselfishly hand it back to him. I would like for you guys to resend your times to me so that I can put the results up monday.

It seems I can run with some softer tires...
So what tires were you running with in that round? I started with a RH/RM setup then went the rest of way with stops for RH/RH tires.

I think I started with mediums to go for a fast lap, then when I first pitted, I switched to hards for the rest of the race to stay out of the pits. I'll experiment with using mediums longer this round, and see if it helps my overall time.
 
Hey racecar, did you not receive my time?

Andy
Sorry about that, I clean my inbox and just happened to discover it. Your times have been added.
