Two important notes:

- If you're listed in one of the starting grids above, and you don't plan on racing, please say so now. We'd like to know as early as possible if we need to combine lobbies

- If you're not listed in either starting grid above, and you'd like to race, say so now so I can make sure you get a spot. Tagging everyone who raced last season but isn't listed above:


I've updated the starting grid (to reflect kg and speedcenter being out) and we're currently at a total of 16 drivers (which means one lobby).

I'll give everyone until 4 PM EST to voice interest here, otherwise I'll finalize the decision to combine lobbies at that time.

As much as having so much interest that 2 divisions are needed is awesome, I look forward to the mixed gr race if it comes to that.

Not sure about the "Who" is required to respond, but just to be on the safe side, I will be at the Event this evening.
 
Tonight's Starting Order (Final):

14 - @vsfit
15 - @THRASH
16 - @ChauncyMarsh / Se4n2s0si


We'll have 7 GT-Rs and 9 Beetles sharing the track. This went pretty smoothly last night (with a smaller field), so it should be interesting to see how things go tonight. Just remember GT-Rs, the burden's on you to pass Beetles patiently and cleanly. The Beetles aren't expected to "let" the GT-Rs pass - just keep your driving line consistent and the GT-Rs will pick their spots.

I'll open the lobby by 8:30 EST at the latest, and the race starts at 9:00 EST. Good luck everyone!

Im going to have some bugs on my windshield by the end of the night :mischievous: just kidding, I’d actually rather drive the Beetle. It’s a fun car.
 
New Combo Selection Procedure

Since we now have two divisions, and each division will driver a separate car, we’ll need a new combo selection procedure. We’ll have two prizes:

Prize A: You get to choose the track and car of your division
- Awarded to the driver with the most points in the current season (regardless of division)
- Prize A can only be won by a driver once per season​

Prize B: You get to choose the car for your division
- Awarded to the driver who won their division’s race
- Prize B cannot be claimed by a driver from the same division as the winner of Prize A
- Prize B can be won multiple times in the same season​

Note that the Prize B winner will be a limited in his/her choice of car. Since we may need to combine lobbies on race day, we’ll need the cars driven by each division to play nicely together - specifically, the car chosen by the Prize B winner must:
- Use the same tire compounds and tire/fuel wear as the car chosen by the Prize A winner
- Allow for safe/easy passing (i.e. the lap times by each car should be roughly 5 seconds apart)​

Here’s a table (that could probably use some tweaking) to use as a guideline for the Prize B car:

[Prize A Car] -> [Prize B Car]
Gr. 1 -> Gr. 3, Gr. 4, or Gr. B
Gr. 2 -> Gr. 3, Gr. 4, or Gr. B
Gr. 3 -> Gr. 1 or Gr. 2
Gr. 4 -> Gr. 1 or Gr. 2
Gr. B -> Gr. 1 or Gr. 2
Gr. X -> TBD
N1000 -> N600 or N700
N900 -> N500 or N600
N800 -> N400 or N500
N700 -> N300, N400, or N1000
N600 -> N200, N300, N900, or N1000
N500 -> N100, N200, N800, or N900
N400 -> N100, N700, or N800
N300 -> N600 or N700
N200 -> N500 or N600
N100 -> N400 or N500

Since this is week 1 and we're combining lobbies, there will definitely be a tie for Prize A (a driver from D1 and a driver from D2 will each get 25 points for finishing first). Here's the tie-breaking procedure:

- If the tie is between drivers from different divisions, award to the driver from the division with the most participants in the most recent race
- If the divisions have the same number of participants in the most recent race, award to the division driving the faster car
- If the tie is between drivers from the same division, award to the driver with the best finish in the most recent race
 
Looking forward to it. I'll be in the Ghostbusters mobile (see avatar). I'll try to stay out of your way, just don't slime me.

#reallyonlytryingtobeat @stelephant ;)

My goal every week. We are always in the back two spots battling, and I need some revenge for that Sunday night win
