Thanks for the Practice last night Killer. Ill be on tonight also if anyone's interested to do some Practice

 

[killerclown19]

Ill be on tonight again just let me know what time. Ill be testing a wheel so may need some help getting going.

 

[Bowtie52]

You bet

 

[Bowtie52]

Just added ipfreely1977 to the drivers list. Welcome glad to meet you.

Wow 3 #11s, that will look interesting on track. I think we could still use another Ford and Bowtie should add a manufactuer championship, but that just my opinion.

 

[Sassafrass_3]

Yeah that's too many 11's. Aren't these cars all the same anyway? I'd take the 88 but it was already taken.

 

[Bowtie52]

I'm going to be on around 9:30 10:30 CST tonight if any one wants to run

 

[killerclown19]

Ill be on bowtie. Quick question how bad is the new update gonna change our setups for the first race. Just a thought.

 

[Bowtie52]

Sorry guys I'm not going to make it tonight. Ive got a buddy stuck on the side of the road and got to go help him. Ya I was reading whats coming on the next update. I dont know we will just have to see.

 

[Bowtie52]

Ok guys I'm thinking wednesday the 26th a test night. Start time around 8pm CST. To see how the update is going to effect our car setups.

 

[aceboy127]

Sounds good to me. Another thing is the tire wear lasting longer.

 

[killerclown19]

Ill be there for the test race. Anybody getting on this weekend to do some racing?

 

[Bowtie52]

I may be on tonight. Don't know for sure yet

 

[ipfreely1977]

Joined today, send fr for practice?

 

[Bowtie52]

Welcome ipfreeiy

 

[Bowtie52]

Hey guys take a look at the ARS group and look at the post named Cautions and tell me what what you thing.

 

[killerclown19]

Caution idea sounds good to me. Anyone gonna be on today to run a little?

 

[Bowtie52]

Maybe ill let you know

 

[aceboy127]

I probably won't be racing later, because I have to study for a midterm exam. Oh the joy.

 

[killerclown19]

I tested with the new patch a little this morning and this is gonna be very interesting I was able to shave quite a bit of time with just messing with Aero on my base setup. I will be on tonight testing if anyone would like to join me for some tests before practice race tomorrow.

I was reading the 2.08 update post on here and in case you have not heard we now have draft in free run mode. I guess qualifying just went down the drain.

Maybe 1 at a time in practice or a maybe a qualifying race? I think cautions are ok to a certain point. Such as people wrecking every other lap and a caution is every other Lap. I think we are all decent drivers so yes I think we should just in case.

 

[Sassafrass_3]

I really like the idea of 2 lap, single car qualifying.

 

[Bowtie52]

That's what I'm thinking about going to sense the draft works in free run now

 

[Bowtie52]

Don't forget guys we have the test night to night.

 

[killerclown19]

What tracks are you thinking of testing on tonight Bowtie?

 

[TrackBound7]

Doing single car runs for qualifying with a field of 8 or so cars is pretty lengthy. At Daytona you are talking 16-18 minutes depending on how fluid the field is at getting the next driver out on the track. Personally at the speedways, I don't see a benefit to qualifying at all (with the exception of a point or what not for being on the pole). There is so much passing on the speedways that starting position just isn't important.
