I am going to be out again this month. I tried to race Sunday night but could only get through three races. Unless I can find another effective option for a gas pedal, plantar fasciitis will keep me from doing any racing for too long at a time.

I dealt with this a year or so ago...not fun. Alot of pain relievers and morning foot stretching, but finally went away after a staycation . Rest and getting off your feet for a few days went a long way. Hope it gets better.
 
It actually feels better after I walk, especially after playing golf. Up and down the hills provides a good stretch. Holding my foot in basically one position while racing was not working and was forcing my calf to cramp during the third race. I've been dealing with it for about a month and a half and it's much better now than it was when it first hit. I was hoping it was good enough to race but not there yet.

And to keep up the bragging, shot 79 yesterday while taking double on both par 5's on the back. Should have been 76 at worst even in the 25 mph wind.

Not going to get that good in 5 years. I still have a day job. I'll be happy to shoot in the low to mid 80s most days with something in the 70s here and there.

I feel ya brother I have issues in my knee from an injury I got playing paintball in my early 20s. I also get chronic gout from my kidney disease so I have lots of foot issues too. Hope ya feel better
 
Guys I have to say coming from iRacing I didn’t think an “arcadey console sim” would ever be so much fun but playing GTS the last couple days has taken me back to my child good days playing GT 1-4 and Forza, I’m having a lot of fun.

I got down into the low (edit) 2:11s in the Audi TT TCR car and I’m just loving turning laps.

Thats quick. My best has been a 113.065.
 
Lol sorry I messaged on my phone, yes I meant 2:11, I almost busted a 10 last night but I kept clipping soil. I will probably not run so fast if I race though I am likely being a little too creative with clipping corners and hitting grass lol.

Good luck on your vaccines, I felt sick for a day or two then I was fine.

Good times sir. Just for reference, the curbing is considered track surface....as long as 2 wheels remain on the curbing/rumble strip, it is legal. Feel free to be agressive on those corners where you can clip and straighten out the corner, but be aware to keep it legal. If a chase driver reports an oob and the replay clearly shows as such and afforded an advantage, a penalty could be issued. Really depends on how much you want to risk. ;)

Yeah I’ve managed a few stray 2:11s, but low/mid 2:12s seem to be fastest pace for me. Looking forward to the weekend :)

Event #11
at Suzuka Circuit
Friday, May 7th, 2021
at 9pm est
Pre-Race Briefing​

2 events remaining. Suzuka is expected to to exploit the strengths of all cars for this event. With the S's, the high speed corners, and the long straight aways, there is something for every car, and the racing should be very close.

Still trying to secure a full grid for tonight We have 2 absences, but both are covered...with 2 drivers tentative.

Autopolis International will present quite a challenge with its technical sequences, but should cater as well to the bigger hp cars on the straights. A few hours to go until we see how it all lands.
I'd like to remind all drivers to continue to observe rules regarding overlap, corner rights, and observing the racing lines of your opponents and your own. Lets have another clean competitive race night.

Track Boundary Clarifications:
The usual 2 wheels inside any white line/asphalt runoffs, or on the curbing.

Drivers are asked to please review or refresh themselves with the following tabs in the first post:
Tab 1.7 Start Procedure (especially GS drivers)
^^Disregard in split race rooms^^
Tab 4.2 Caution Process
**GS Drivers** Please be familiar with the start procedure for Multi-Class race start. Any questions, please ask.
For Reference:

Hey guys,

Going to bail on tonight. My stomach has been killing me the past few days and don't think I'll be able to stay put for 40min without some sort of human fluids forcing their way out :ouch:

Sorry to hear it. Hope you feel better. In the event you feel up to come race time, just come on in. We have plenty of vacancies tonight...going to be a thin grid.
