OK, Mustangs at Sebring (night) it is.

see you guys tonight...hope a lot of you show up!

 

I'll be back in the swing of things in November. I'm taking a better job with real 8-4pm bankers hours, so I'll be in the land of the living again. I've been so busy I actually don't even have an active sub right now.

 

Apologies in advance for the newb question, but what time do you guys do this tonight? 7:30? Which timezone?

It's been ages (my game needed 800Mb of updates!)...but I dusted off my wheel and pedals last night and played with the miata cup at Seca. ......took me 20 minutes just to get into the measly 1:45s. Rolling Chicane is my name. Still would be fun to join you all.

 

practice starts at 7:40 Eastern time.

join in! the more the merrier.

 

if you're on the fence about joining tonight, Pat Long is racing with us

 

password is mrroblay under the CXC labelled session. Hosted race.

 

Good racing again. I was going to need a 2 stop race to make it to the end because of the small fuel tank. I optimistically went as far as the car would go, but didn't get the white flag when I needed it.

Andy gets to say he went wheel to wheel with Patrick Long and came out ahead. Nice win Andy!

Next week lets do something fast!

 

Sorry guys.... 7:40 Eastern is 4:40 Pacific when I'm still far from home everyday, working.

Now... if there were a 8:40pm Pacific start time... that I could do.

Jealous of your Pat Long time. I passed him once in the real world, between Turn 5 & 6 at Laguna Seca, but he was just cruising along in a Cayenne GTS for a promo shoot and I was hustling a Cayman S on R-comps... so no real victory there.

 

the first few laps were great! then I stuffed the car coming out of Sunset, then had to make another stop b/c I didn't have enough fuel to go the rest of the way. d'oh!

Pat managed to run out of gas twice (?).

Andy and Justin had a great battle at the end of the race, reminded me of a few years ago when the Porsche and Ferrari were battling for the GT win at the end of the 12 hours!

as for next week: how about the LMP at Road America? that would be pretty fast

 

the race starts at 6pm pacific time; if you can make that skip practice and qualifying. (just get some practice with that car/track combo first or you'll be out to lunch quick!)

 

Sorry I missed last night. I was trying to do too many things at once and before I knew it practice was almost over. I figured I would just get out of the way for the pros.

On the bright side I finished an IRacing specific pc build for a fellow rennlister and Spec 944 driver. I am hoping he will be joining us in the near future.

 

our very own Gator_86_951 paid me a visit today! this was his first experience on iracing with a full motion rig.

I think we gave him vertigo

but he recovered and did some quick laps in the LMP at Sebring, F1 at Watkins Glen and then a race in the SRF at Summit Point!

nice to meet you Gator! come back any time!

 

That's sweet. Is that 3 seperate monitors or projection.

 

It's three 55" Samsung LED TV's. iPhone photo washes things out a bit so it looks projector-ish

 

If you guys are ever in So. Cal. you MUST experience a full motion sim. I did get a little vertigo. I think part of that was the lack of sleep and not eating something before hand.

BUT, the full motion rig is ****ing bonkers. My high school / college buddy Josh even came by and was more blown away then I was. I understand United services Tokyo from LAX. Maybe a pit stop or two on the way to the land of flashy lights and cabs with automatic doors!
