Time for a series featuring short tracks, multiple race heats, low grip tires and just enough horsepower to make things interesting. This series will feature two lightweight rear wheel drive sports cars. Pick your steed: Either the iconic S2000 or one of the triplets - Subaru BRZ, Toyota 86 GT, Scion FRS. Tuning will be kept to a minimum to focus on driving ability.

Come on fellas. Let's get some participation over here! Got around 7 people signed up at the moment (will update entrants list shortly).
 
I may be around to attend at least the first couple of weeks, let me see my schedule and post back shortly.
 
Awesome first night everyone! Couldn't have gone better IMO. Congrats to peyepete and myself for taking home wins!

I hadn't given it thought before, but this event format could lend itself to a lot of ties each night, as one can see above. To fix this, going forward, unless someone disagrees with it, all race total ties will be determined by qualifying position. I won't apply this to Event #1 because it could possibly be viewed as unfair...unless you all agree to it. Applying that rule to last night gives us this:

1 WolfpackS2k
2 peyepete
3 bdubclub
4 DudeTuna
5 Feldynn
6 dlrws6
7 nosoks
 
Personally I like second race higher position gets the spot, that is just me though, and won't lose too much sleep with whatever option you decide. Going to be looking to spin some laps, that Red Bull course is another that I don't have too many laps at.
 
Alright I'll take that into consideration.

Agreed on the track. Think I've done a total of 30-40 laps lifetime at this track. The first turn and second to last turn seem to be the most important to get right!

Both races tonight will be 20 laps each (Lap times are roughly 59 seconds long).
 
ANNOUNCEMENT

Going forward from this date onward, the last place finisher of the previous event may, if he so chooses, substitute driving his S2000/BRZ and instead drive a 100% stock 1991 Mazda efini RX-7 Type R in the color Competition Yellow Mica.

I know I haven't posted last night's results yet, however the last place finisher from last night was peyepete. So if you'd like pete, embrace the power of the rotary for one week:bowdown:

Excited for the race tonight, finally a track I have some laps on. :sly: 👍



Also, for the chicane what are the limits to taking it? Two tires over the curb? On the curb?

Great fun last night! Sorry I didn't see this comment beforehand, but Two tires over the curb was the expectation...and I think everyone honored that.
 
What a great series this is becoming, I love the stock suspension with power adds, makes for great racing. Add that everyone in this series is very clean and respectful, and it is wheel to wheel every week, from start to finish. Excited for next week.
 
Thanks for the praise bdubclub. I agree with you 100%. This formula has really worked well.
