Maybe we can all settle down a bit - so the bumping n banging will be reduced.
Otherwise we may lose some drivers.
Hope I didn’t cause anyone a difficulty.

Hopefully everyone will chalk it up to growing pains, calm down a little bit, and get used to the drivers their racing. This is for fun, and no money involved. The whole focus of this series is not all out race night domination, but good, clean, hard fought door to door battles no matter where your at on the grid. I had an absolute battle with juicy and Raw in the first race for 8th place. Finished ninth, but felt like 2nd. Was alot of fun.

I got disconnected during that last race :banghead: Really sucks because I enjoyed all the races a lot!

I was surprised to see you go off track, now it’s apparent that you DCed. It was an absolute blast trying to get around you even with your slickery RH against my sticky RM. I can’t normally keep up with you!
Same for you Nova, it was a blast. Sorry for all the contact to your bumper but I wanted to challenge / race you. Was loads of fun. I’d be pathetic on RH.

Is there an opening for this series?

I originally planned for Reserve drivers, but as last night showed, the more the merrier. I'll take as many Reserves as I can get. Cant promise you will always have a grid spot, but if you are available and you are quick to jump at an opening when there is an absence any Reserve driver could see some action. Also, since only 6 of the 10 races could t toward the season points tally, inexpect many Reserve drivers to be in the points running during the season. Review the first post in this thread if you would like to join as a Reserve, and follow the instructions at the end of that post. I will follow up with a welcome message and details pertaining to Reserve drivers. I'll keep my eye open for it.:cheers:

@Rob Brown,
No worries. It was great having the heat on me toward the end. My heart was pounding at that races end. Great fun last night Gents.

I have reviewed the Series Details and would like to compete in the Porsche GT3 Cup Challenge-presented by Snail. I would prefer to be assigned to a race team and issued a car livery and number by the Series Director.

We were involved in ping pong that collected us in race 2, lap 7, 14:00 minutes in. It was an unusual sequence of events that deteriorated. It certainly may have been minimized if I didn’t try to take advantage of the situation. 0r at the very least, didn’t create a 3 wide situation where nobody benefits. Sorry for my part in that fiasco.

Great Racing Friday Night Gentlemen. It was alot of close door to door racing, mostly clean, some, not so much, but expected for a first race Event with alot of drivers who are not used to one another.
Below is the scoring sheet of Friday's results. Congratulations to @nmcp1 for the overall win for Event #1.

Please be reminded there is a penalty and IR system in place if anyone feels there was an incident worth reporting. If so, please file them by this Friday 8/23/19 5pm est per the penalty instructions in the first post. The Stewardship will review and assess penalties before the next race night if necessary.



Overall, great racing and great premiere event for the start of the Season. Monza is next.

 
@N38824r
With your confirmation of attendance for Event #1, your grid spot was held for you for the night. I understand that life events do come up that may take us away from racing, but as stated in the absentee policy, communication is necessary and required.
Since you were MIA on Friday, August 16th for the first Event, with no report or reply when messaged, you have forfeited your primary grid spot for the remainder of the season, and will be placed on the Reserve Drivers List. Please review the Reserve driver process, and Add all Gold class liveries linked to your save file to be used when needed.
