Qualifying Results will be finalized on March 7th, 2014, any times after that date will not be scored!
Race day is on March 8th!


Here it is guys! This will be a one time event for driver who qualify! I have have been told that these are actually close to what an IRL Indy Car would actually run in real life. The point of this is to get away from the near 300mph speeds at Indianapolis Speedway with the Formula Gran Turismos. I thought it would be cool to tame this car down a little and make a "realistic" event out of it! Hope to see you guys on the track!

It was also cool to see more new people! Expecting a decent turnout after seeing how it went tonight! 👍
 
When's your next practice? I'm still 2 seconds behind the leader... got to get a good setup.
Practice is going on now! Make sure you are tuning in an online lobby as the physics may be different!

Room Number is 1472-6399-8408-2429-3413 Session is now over!
By the way, good to see you, I won your Indy race with the Camaros! 👍

I wish I could make the date Saturday but Saturday afternoons are a tough day for me. I ended up getting 40.82x which good to keep with the group. Maybe I'll join the practice sessions just to get a feel.

What time and how long do you usually practice for tonight???
 
Room will be up as soon as my game boots up! Will provide room number!
