Room still available? After a long heart to heart (and turning on the a/c) my ps4 has not overheated. This may not be the combo i should be dipping my toe back in with but yolo!
 
I will not be racing tonight, I've had zero practice and am so far off any kind of pace here. I'll be back next week for our regularly scheduled program.
 
I won't be able to participate in tomorrow's enduro. See you all for the next one (as well as anyone in Survivor and Sunday racing)!

I'll make a spot for someone... unfortunately I can't make it tonight

Thanks to all three of you for giving us a heads up. This should make Sean’s life a little easier as host this evening.
 
Jumped in to practice quick already know not gonna go well so im bowing out as to not destroy your guys run.
 
I was the cause of that stupid ending of the race yesterday. I thought I had enough fuel to finish the race but I was wrong (I forgot you need to finish the lap when the 90 mins end). I ran out of fuel and was basically coasting towards the finish line which caught everyone else off guard.
So my apologies for that. I have learned from this and it won't happen again.

Lol no biggie. Car should have went 45 mph though. Haha. Luckily Sean forgot to set the ghosting off.
 
Jesus, so are RS essentially like the old F1 qualifying tires? An out lap, a hot lap, and you're done? :lol: 👍 Should be interesting.
 
About 2 weeks before Brad had announced his interest into the endurance scene, I too was working on something for an endurance league myself. For the most part we had the same ideas so I just sat back and let him get this thing going. The only 2 things I came up with differently were allowing the group cars to have bop on but with some regulations and the Length of the race. For instance:

Gr.3 and gr.4 the allowance for a group was 25-50hp range up or down and the weight could have a range as well that would have been determined later once I had all the details in working order. So there are many gr.3 cars out there and many within range of others but we all know the whole field was separated significantly. Something we could look into the future is this, maybe even allow the combo choice to be 3 cars of our choice.

Or we could open up another enduro league with multiple cars on the same track as this league and run on Monday nights with the same track as the Tuesday night league and use the Monday night as the test session. My goal with this league is to grow it substantially so helping @BradESPN Grow this league is a primary goal of mine.

The same would have gone for the gr.1 and 2 as well but at the time the gr.2 was so new it wouldn’t have mattered. By doing this I believe it would have added some more strategy to the mix and such.

As far as the n classes it would have been the selected car and the selected car only. This was just my 2 cents. As far as the time, I was thinking 2 hour endurance, but with the way things have been going with all the races we have had, 1.5 hours is the perfect distance.

Well that's a shame... if something changes in the next six weeks, just post here and we'll make room for you - otherwise, we'll look forward to racing with you when your schedule opens up.

Also, what's your PSN name again? ERAUfan97?
