Where/what/when are you guys racing?

Did some tests on Philip Island with the Corvette yesterday. Not an easy track. When the race started I realised it was a 2h endurance and we were only 2. Didn't finish that one.

Practice is on Sunday nights, races are on Wednesday nights. This week is long beach.
You need to be part of the league, just send your iRacing name to one of the league admins and they can send you an invite.

You're definitely welcome to participate - just PM me your name as it appears on iRacing.

I do see your location is Belgium... not sure how the timezone works out, but the times we run in CST are:
6-8pm Sundays
7-9pm Wednesdays

We always run the RUF Track (this IS Rennlist after all), track changes every week. 6 week "seasons" with 1 drop week.

In other news - I *may* miss this week's event. Have some family stuff I gotta take care of tomorrow and I'm not sure I'll be home in time to join (and if I am home in time I still might not be able to join...) Hopefully I can make it... I really like Long Beach.

For some reason the axis fix just won't take. Long story short, I will probably join you guys next season, but that will be the low season I expect.

Maybe I should just sell the rift?
which version of the rift is it?

Great race everyone, and nice win Jim, when you lost it in the air pin I thought here's my chance But you recovered quickly. I must admit that I hoped you wrecked your car !

We need to do something about the attendance only 6 tonight

Couple of days ago I found myself in a Corvette Race on Philip Island. Turned out it was a 2 hour race and there were 2 participants.

Yet another track I've never been to even virtually. Seems like it will be a lot of fun once I figure it out a little. Or a lot.

iRacing learnt me again that slow + smooth = fast.

Had to learn Suzuka, and did a race there. Was not really on the pace, but ok, I'm no sim racing hero either. In order to increase my license level I decided to do time trials. 5 laps without any mistake was required, so I drove with the necessary margin not to make stupid mistakes and get 5 clean laps. End result was that my 5th lap was 2 seconds faster than the fastest I managed to drive in the race ...
