Race 2: 5 laps - Big GTRs - South City Long
Race 3: 12 laps - MRT - Sam Speedway.
Race 4: 4 laps - FBM - Kyoto National Reverse a la Rockingham
Race 5: 14 laps - Secret :D

Sprint race points. First race random grid. Rest of races, random number reversed.

YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I just remembered that the last race was today and i became sad cos i thought that i'll never be racing with you guys again.. :schwitz:

but i guess i will. :thumb:

[evilpimp]

Interusting, seeing as its not for points and that I'm currently VERY busy, I won't be practicing for it but I will make sure I get sets and all. Looking forward to this :)

[hyntty]

Sounds promising. Wonder if the racing will be cleaner and better when there's no points involved :scratchch

[racer hero]

Can none beginners please race this one?

[J@tko]

OP edited.

[TAYLOR-MANIA]

Oh nice! :smileypul
I should be there. Some real nice combos aswell & we get to use that masterpeice of an AutoX layout!

[Technique]

Cool. I missed round 8 because some stuff came up so hopefully I'll be around next week.. :)

[hyntty]

Well here's a dilemma... There's the Finnish lfsws qualification @1800 gmt, and I'm kind of wanting to go there to drive for the last places. But then again, I'd really like to come and beat Mista and Taylor, or at least get one more chance... To be or not to be, now there's something to think about

[evilpimp]

Lol, hyntty I'm sure we'll meet again some day.
I might not even practice for this event apart from the day or the day before because of all the other events I'm in.

Hope that I'll show up :D

[kABLiuks]

bcause its a round for fun, so why dont we make it "CAN reset" or atleast you can telepit and rejoin any time? :)

[J@tko]

It'll be the latter, and can reset for the MRT round.

The rules will be much more relaxed for this - as its really only a bit of fun :)

[dekojester]

I'm not holding any FPs for this.

I'd have no sleep to give ample time to all combos.

I'll be in DR though some to change combos and such.

Also, I'll be using Microsot Excel's =RAND to get the grids. Min will be 2, max will be however many raced.

:-D

Keeps ya on yer toes !
:nod:

[hyntty]

What's the timetable? If I'm there around 19.30 will I miss more than quali?

[J@tko]

I've deleted quali - 1st race will be random grid :)

If you come @ 1930 then you should get in at least 2 of the races :thumb:

[kABLiuks]

[evilpimp]

As expected, didn't have time to practice at all so dont expect me to keep up with you hyntty. :P

Should be fun even though I HATE the FWD's.

[J@tko]

Thanks to Mr.T and Racer Hero for helping me do a little testing tonight. Added a new last race to the above programme. Combo is a complete secret. You'll be given 5-10 mins pre-race to have a go! :D

[J@tko]

EVERYONE PLEASE NOTE

ROUND 9 WILL START TONIGHT AT 7.30 PM BST

THIS IS BECAUSE
A) I MIGHT NOT BE THERE AT 7
B) HYNTTY WON'T EITHER :) (and I want him to beat Mr.T :D)

The server will still be open all the time. You can still come at 7pm - for some practice or what not.

Hope to see you all there :thumb:

[evilpimp]

Well, obviously he'll beat me seeing as I didnt practice at all apart from that fun (not really practice O_O) with the MRT.

BTW, the change of timing isn't coz I'm being selfish or anything, it's coz I've got a timetable for the evening set up and it doesn'nt work if I'm not there :(
