*Non Nogrip member - I dont think He will be participating again, he was only in because of lack of numbers but im not sure yet:-(
As you can see, gray19 is currently running away with the championship with 4 wins out of 4, btcckid and sam100255 are battling close for second with me (DoMw94) and non nogrip member tanner foust (his xbl tag) left to pick up the pieces with his late entry and my hopeless car and bad luck!
I've got an update for my car for tonights 2 tracks (4 races) so lets hope I can improve!

10 lap races but set as 11 for one warm up lap.
For every other race, the grid is a FULL reverse of the previous race result. The grid can be organised in that additional warm up lap. For the first race of every track, a 10 minute qualifying session will decide the grid order.
Rules
Cars must be FWD or RWD, A class 550. The racing rules are the basic touring car rules.
Laguna Seca and Road Atlanta at 8PM GMT tonight.
I have no Idea why the championship table won't show! ah well, ive put a link instead
there was talk between me and dom on who gets in and who doesnt for the "1st championship". because there has been a interest boost after our first evening, the number of possible players have increased..
now due to that, theres some players that wont be able to race, as my thought of a simple, first come first serve way sounds surely fair as such. but for some, people have asked and theres been numerous problems which is fair enough...however, we dont want 1 timers joining instead of 100% commited players who wish to really participate.....
tannerfoust has shown genuine interest and i personally would like to keep him becasue hes shown true dedication even though he isnt on the forum....
so just 3 new players tonight........who will they be >??? :P
ok we can't race tonight because people haven't had time to get ready. me, btcckid and gray19 suggest thursay at 8pm gmt instead if that's ok?
this looks like fun, maybe I should get Forza :-)

I can do tomorrow or Wednesday at any time.
Work means I can't do Thursday unfortunately though but see what other replies you get and go with the majority.

then tuesdays and thursays arent going to work for me then because I have college class from 4:00PM-6:30PM my time, and in my time the race starts at 3:00pm my time...thats just not going to work. :( would it be possible to race on sunday? most people dont have to many time constraints on weekends, unless they have to work, but not many work on sundays that im aware of, so i think that will be a good day for a race.

So I appears that the the next race is at languna. I really don't want to miss that. It will be a challenge threading my car through the corkscrew, because if you look up "drift happy" you'll find a picture of my touring car:)

I did some practice laps at laguna, and my best time is 1.39.160. Is that competitive at all with your cars? That is with all all assists off, with an auto trans.

For comparison I just hit a mid 1:35. That reminds me though, do you switch off any aids or are they all allowed? I generally use the line (I know I shouldn't) but I've got into the habbit now, I don't even follow it really, just use it as a braking marker. If you have all aids off I'll have to get some practice in but it won't take long to learn the tracks without it.
I can do Sunday ok, can you do Wednesday's Alexzander?

I have everything off - even in Forza time-trials and stuff.
I HATE driving aids!

I think i can do Wednesdays, I dont see any constrains there unless my dad has work for me to do, which is a possibility, butt i should be on at 3:00Pm (my time) but when it is time for the race, how do we link up in a lobby?,does the host, which im guessing is DoMW94, send out an invite or something? if that is the case, my Gamertag is ALYKZANDYR.
yea it would most likely be dom or myself ........ mine is " killersawus666" i cant remember what time i did in my yaris but 1.35 ill aim for for now :)
just did a 1.35 5 or so.....i was pushing but was only after a few laps.....

Oh yeh best make sure my gamertag is up, it's "Worzle Gummidge".
I put in a few laps without the brake markers and it's not so bad, it's funny because I wouldn't think of doing it in PC sims. I got it down to about a second off my best time and should be able to make up the rest with a few more laps practice.
Will we run Road Atlanta too? If so I best run a few laps of that track too. Look forward to it guys. :)
For Wednesdays, i know its kinda late but how is 10PM GMT?

Hey guys!!!
I'M BACK IN BUSINESS!
I'll go buy a subscription (cos I haven't been playing) either tomoro or next day - so then I'm in!
I'm gonna go build and test for a few hours now! so can I seek a bit better clarification on the rules, to be a pain?
A550 - touring car style cars only, fwd/rwd - any mod (apart from superchargers and stuff), wings I'm assuming ok? any mandatory upgrades? Roll cage, weight?
That's ok for me. Just to be sure that would be 11pm uk time?
no 10

Just ran a 1:32.8 at Laguna with my 1997 M3 E36... Considering there are 35's and 39's posted here - I'm questioning the car..... but there's nothing non-touring car on it...
It has way less power than the E90 and that ran in the first 2 races.

yeah 10 pm uk time. but why is that 9 elsewhere? is that this sites timing?
