Can't see a problem, I joined the last season with only three races left!

Make sure you read the rules set out on the first page wink

Btw Colin, that was a pretty spectacular off in the last race!

Thanks. I have got several questions. 3 races per car and an allowance of 3 cars. 18 rounds/races in total. Not enough cars or have I mis-read something somewhere? What level of sports tyres are allowed and when you say tyre wear is normal then does that mean light? Are the races every Monday night and at what time do they usually start? Is there a practice session? Apologies if I've just missed any of this information.

Team Name: Reverse Gear Racing
Colour: WR Blue Mica/Black Wheels
Cars:
Estate - Nissan Stagea 260RS Autech Version '98
Coupe - Subaru BRZ S '12
Hatchback: Lancia Delta HF Integrale Evoluzione '91

It's minimum 3 races per car so you have to use all cars and not just your best one.
Any sports are allowed, softs usually last but I don't think they will this week.
Practices are Monday night, races are Wednesdays qualifying from 8.15-8.30. Race start about 8.45.

theres 2 rounds each race night and the season lasts 9 weeks so 3 races for each car but since you have missed 2 races already you just need to do 3 races on 1 car and 2 on the other 2. Races happen on wednesdays where quali starts at 8:30 for 15 mins and we run a practice lobby on monday nights at 8:30 also.

Normal tyre wear basically means its on the lightest setting available and tyres are set to sports so you are allowed to use hard/meds/soft as its completely up to yourself what you prefer as theres no mandatory pit rule anymore.

Welcome aboard iwantanalfa, excellent to have you joining. smile

That was yet again an entertaining practice session. It was very enjoyable seeing Colin and Mule racing side-by-side. I was convinced that both were going to collide in the chicane…but didn’t. It must be hard to get two cars through there without contact – great stuff. smile

I almost thought Colin saved that slide, but when Col did loose it, I had a bad feeling that Mule would be wiped out. laugh Can't accuse Col for not trying to save it. laugh

Mule drove very well in that race. smile

i was surprised we did make it through there cleanly considering i couldnt see him (drawback of using interior view) but yeah mule was very clean when trying to get past smile

now onto the crash, i touched the dirt iirc and then tried to correct the car but was fighting a losing battle which resulted in me going sideways into the first corner and unfortunately hit mule. I have saved the replay and might upload it tomorrow hehe

And just to be clear, if you consider each location as a race meet and each meet has two heats, then you have your 9 meets and 18 races. Each car has to attend 3 meets (so 6 races per car) and only 1 car is allowed at each meet. At any meet, you must use the same car in both heats.

And welcome to the championship!

You need to make it so you can see the view that F1 had, your view and what I would've seen if I looked back

Heroic effort but as I learnt at a wet Nuerburgring a couple of seasons ago sometimes it's better to just let it go hehe

EDIT: F1's dog:
