Hey guys,

I need someone to host tomorrows race. I have 12 days left before I leave for college and I have been spending every day/night with my friends/girlfriend, and so I haven't had any time to practice and I wont be able to host. Hopefully someone can host for me. Sorry for the short notice.

Hello
Well I know Flow is out of town and he might be at the race might not.
But I can host D1 if no one else jumps in.

Just so no one worries, I will most probably be hosting the NA Div2 race tonight... Seems like an eternity since the last time!

Good luck to all and don't forget to show up!

Hi Guys,

Bilbo what time will you be opening the server tonight?
What will be the name & pass?

GOOD LUCK to ALL Div...

Steve B

The server will be called "NAR NA Div2 Race" and the password will be the usual, "sunday".

I should have the server up around 7PM Eastern, 7:30 at worst. Qualifications start at 8PM (8:10 more likely, to allow for the usual time-challenged guys

), race starts at 8:30 or 5-10 minutes after end of Q, whichever comes last.

Qualifying order will be (reverse championship order):

1-SteveB
2-Andri
3-Titoff
4-Echoshill
5-Koma
6-Mizuno
7-QC-Mike
8-Mercury
9-Steve (the original!)
10-Xzwins
11-Bilbo

I have included the inactive drivers in case anyone decides to change his status for the second half of the season but I would be very surprised (and in trouble) if everyone above did show up.

Please be aware that there will be zero-tolerance regarding pit-exit line cutting. That includes losing control over the grass at pit-exit and ending up prematurely on the track. The Penalty is +20 seconds per infraction.

Thank You Bilbo.

C You guys there.

Steve B

roflmao

What a way to start the season Qualifying first....

hehehehehe

1 Question....Will I be told when to go out or once the Qualifying session starts I can just go?

Steve · Post by **Steve** » 07 Aug 2005, 20:09

once Bilbo goes to qualy, just go go go !!! and remember, once you finish your qualy lap, NO TALKING, makes it very hard to concentrate for the drivers on track

Bilbo · Post by **Bilbo** » 07 Aug 2005, 20:40

As Steve said, since you're the first to qualify, you can go as soon as the Q session starts. If you don't go, you will be told...

There is no chat allowed AT ALL (except from the race host) while people are qualifying and/or racing, unless there is a major problem that needs immediate attention.

From my personal experience, there is much less stress when qualifying first than when qualifying last and seeing the other's faster qualifying times...

Anyways, 100% races are races of attrition so your qualifying position, while important, does not mean that much in the end.

One more thing, just to make sure: Launch control is mandatory at race start.

Thank You Steve and Bilbo.

Yes I did some practice with LC and am ready as I will ever be.

C U on track.

Hi Guys,

My friend JUAN GARCIA is back from holidays and was wondering if he can join tonights race.

He already got confirmation from CART, he just didn't get a chance to rply to him.

I will watch this post to see if he gets a GREEN light for tonight.

Steve B

Bilbo · Post by **Bilbo** » 07 Aug 2005, 22:29

Well, since CART is probably busy going through all kinds of debauchery with his friends/girlfriend

, I think it's OK to have Juan race with us if we have room (likely) since CART approved it. I am assuming he has trained appropriately for this race and can drive safely.

That's unless someone objects to Juan's presence (if CART does not confirm before the race).

CART Rulz · Post by **CART Rulz** » 07 Aug 2005, 22:41

Sure he has my approval, I just never got a chance to E-mail him back. I apologize for the delay, I just completely forgot...

CART

SteveB · Post by **SteveB** » 07 Aug 2005, 22:43

Well what if I tell him to join the session if there are any disputes he won't take offence to it.

Meo and Klaaz saw what he can do. He is a safe and fair racer.

I will tell him to join then it is your call.

Thank You my friend.

Steve B

Oh ok Thank You CART very much.

NP I hope all is well for you getting ready for school.

I will let him know.

SteveB · Post by **SteveB** » 07 Aug 2005, 23:44

Hi Hitman,

Juan has requested to race in D2 if seat is available.

Juan also says HI to all and THANK You very much for letting him join he just doesn't have access to private forum yet.

He will be joining D2 race tonight if requested other wise.

Steve B

CART Rulz · Post by **CART Rulz** » 08 Aug 2005, 00:05

Yep he goes to D2.

SteveB · Post by **SteveB** » 08 Aug 2005, 23:45

Hi CART.

Juan would like to thank you very much for letting him join NAR Family.

He had a great time last night while it lasted lol.

He said he cannot access the private forum yet, he tried just before race time yesterday.

He submitted his user name and pass but it didn't work. Maybe do you have to confirm his status?

Thanks Again

I will let him know about the team change I think he will be ok with WILLIAMS but don't quote me on that....lol

Steve B

EDIT>> I spoke to Juan and he said switching to the WILLIAMS team is fine with him.
