John - when you go to "Hosted Races" there will be a green arrow to the right of the line the race is listed on. Mouse over it and a PW box will pop up. Sorry you missed it, ended up with 7 guys racing and it was a good race. I got very lucky in T1 at the start, #2 took out #1 and it was clear sailing for me for 15 laps! Who is Ray R.? Can't place the name here..

Good racing tonight. Gary R. got a good lead right off the bat as the rest of us were back smashing into each other. After that nobody could catch him with the heated fight for second between me, Gary M., and Vito.

Thanks Gary - I got back from the store right at 9:30, after it was too late I RTM'd in the iracing instruction manual and saw was I should have done. I only had a couple of laps practice before hand anyway - and I've never been to the Glen. Still stayed up past my bedtime practicing......

That was a good race last night. I had a lot of fun racing back and forth with Justin and Vito, while we all tried to catch up to Gary R (who apparently just never makes a mistake!)

Thanks again to Gary R for hosting and for opening the session to all drivers - it was a lot of fun!

Guys, glad to do it and just look at my lap times to see I made PLENTY of mistakes! If you guys can swing it tomorrow nights race at Daytona (Oval) in Impala Cup cars will be a blast with lots of people out there!

Paolo and I kept battling it out for 6th and 7th by passing each other while one was in the pits... I had a great time, though!

Fine with either. I did Legends on a Road course and even with some experienced guys it was a crash fest so if we do Legends I'd highly reccomend oval.

OK, let's make it SRF's at VIR, some of you need to buy a track but if you already have the Corvette you can run VIR in a C6R tomorrow night in Kevin's Rennlist League race! Joe - what's an OK time at VIR for the SRF, I know you are a ringer there...

Practice starts about 6:30
Qualify at 9:00
Race at 9:15

I am far from a ringer there. The fast guys are in the 11's, I think I turned 15-16 at best and more likely a 17-18.

Real life times are high 13 for the record 14-16 for the top guys and 17-20 for the fast regional guys.

I will try and practice with you guys, but won't be able to make the race. Speaking of too many leagues Joe, I have a Tuesday night Xbox thing with some other guys for Forza, GRID, etc.
