I will probably open up a practice/practice race lobby around 830-9ish (est) for those of you busting out back up rides if you have already thrashed your go to car
 
I will not be able to race tonight.
 
Practice lobby is up
 
A decision has been made regarding TCS. All drivers regardless of division will be allowed to use TCS. It has been determined that it does not give a competitive advantage as lap times tend to be slower when using TCS.
 
PS4 may be dying... Last Saturday was bad enough. Hoping this is some kind of fluke. Anyone in a lobby I can test with?
 
If anyone has a incident they would like reviewed please send me a PM and I will look at it
 
Insane race today. My PS4 had given me a false scare after recovering from a system error overnight (no idea what had happened) just 30 minutes before.

The wet race is very intense throughout, almost lost the car in many occasions and put the car across the grass on the penultimate lap.
I went for a 1-stop strategy and saved quite a lot of fuel at the end. It was a good option considering the tire degradation isn't an issue, and the car's power curve was helping it out in a very smooth manner.

Perhaps I was a little hasty at the end, kept struggling to keep the car in control for the last few laps trying to maintain the momentum. Had a lot of brake fade into the final stint, tires were overheating quite badly on me. But overall, it was a good race, hats off to Nick for his massive comeback after a seemingly huge pileup down early in the start. - that 18 second gap over the last 5 laps were indeed great. I wasn't fast enough in the wet either way, had thought of drifting the car across 3 corners. :lol: :cheers:
 
I felt track irrigation was inadequate. I spent the afternoon fixing the water drainage issues.
I almost dumped my entire fuel supply on the track to make it more slippery.

I had thought if this race lasted 24 hours, wouldn't it be raining every day?

Awesome Nick. Glad to have you back! No rush man. We still appreciate you.

Sorry to be the guy but you have Sandite in both gold and silver class. Lol.
 
Champagne to the division winners this week! I hope there's no more wet weather for the rest of the season. It almost took my breath away for the entire hour. :lol:

I heard the central US is getting a massive chill spell in the coming days, after weeks of scorching temps. Stay safe folks.
