August 26 @ 7:30 P.M. Eastern

Car: Genesis Genesis X Gran Racer VGT Concept, 869, 2401, Tires = Racing Medium, (target PP = 882-889)

Add the Racing Transmission. Even though this is a 4WD car, the Torque-Vectoring Differential is not available.

This kind of car is the reason why we don't use traction control and why we use grid starts. A driver has to be aware of his dextra pedes imperium.

A special addition will be a few laps around SSR.

Approximately 2,700 people view MNR events each month.

These are about as fair races as GT can offer.

Are you really not interested in challenging yourselves?
 
I wish I could, but I haven't gotten my schedule working right.

I hope you have a decent turn-out!
Thanks, old friend! I know that it can be difficult for some drivers, especially if you have to get up early for work the next morning, but the lobby is usually open for about two hours and there are the holiday Mondays.

The longest session was maybe 5 hours. If you have a prepped car, you can join at any time we are on-line.

As for quantity, 8-9 are common, so there definitely is room for somebody from that very full 2,700 pool of drivers . 😳
