Instant Race, Sunday August 29th

[Der Alta]

Yep, it's time to do another one. The missus may get grumpy, but I figure I can hand her $150 and tell her to go shopping for 3 hours. I figure she'll spend $250.

Enough about my marital adventures, this Sunday it'll be another one.

Instant Race! Sunday, August 29th 1pm EST (EST, aka New York City time).

I'll post up the link to the chat room here, an hour or so prior. We'll gather and at 1pm I'll announce the track and the car. We'll have at it for an hour and hopefully if the interest is there, a second one.

I don't really have a clue how to set up a car right btw.

 

[NielsG]

I came so sudden and full of panic into this one, that I bought the semi-racing instead of the full customized service.

Well, setting the car up is so much faster then.

Great race, AO. 👍 And a very enjoyable concept this instant racing. Hope I can be there next time.

[Kent]

Hey all,

Sorry to have missed the second race, but the first was fun.

The second looked really nice so I went on track to try it out.
Came out with about 20 minutes of racing and a time just above 1'23.0
I would have hoped to get into the low 22's, but the combo was actually such a challenge that I gave up.

However, it was a fun race.
Back with a replay file as soon as I hook up the xport (which might be in a little while).

Until then,
-
