Martin said the test races have been re-scheduled to Thursday and next Saturday in this thread

perso au vu de la course test de ce soir sur l ovale , je pense que pas loin de 80 pour cents ( dont moi meme ) du plateau n est pas du tout pret a courir sur un ovale et je pense qu il devrait etre interdit a quelconque pilote de pouvoir prendre le départ dimanche soir sans avoir participer au minimum a une course test ....

repousser d une semaine la 1 ere course et la 2eme par la meme qui tombe le dimanche suivant serait judicieux de mon point de vue ( en proposant d autres courses test uniquement sur ovale avant ) avis qui n engage que moi

Racing at ovals is an excercise of patience. Races are defined usually in the last 10 or 20 laps and one thing we must take on account is that we must keep the car in one piece to face those last laps if we want to have any chance to fight for a position.

Also it is quite important to have situational awarness. I mean, to have clear what is going on around our car. There is very usual to run 2 wide or even 3 wide at the turns, and so this is, imho, quite important. The rest is just getting practice.

About roadcourses, well, patience is always a positive thing. And before trying a pass, we must be sure it is enough space to do it safely. We won´t be killed if there is an accident, but what can be killed is the fun.

We are switching Rio and Mid-Ohio since we are struggling to get Rio working on the server.

An update regarding the schedule:

Jp and I have found what seemed to be the problem with Road America, so we will re try it on Sunday, June 7th. If it doesn't work at the first try we'll race without yellows. But there will definitely be a race on this day.

As Nazareth and Cleveland are not totally ready yet, we will rescheduled them on the second semester.

So on Sunday, June 21st we will be racing at Laguna Seca, and on Sunday, July 5th at Toronto.

Sounds good, thanks!

Will qualy also be repeated, or just the race?

I wasn't on pole, so we can re run the qualify.

We were only 16, hopefully we'll be more, and the race was cancelled altogether. I assume we'll do as if the first attempt didn't happen.

Like JP said

Makes sense to me to redo qualifying.

Good to hear that you are rescheduling the race. I will not be available then, however.

Is this still "on"??
If so, maybe to repost it in round 8 annoucment...

Stay tuned for a reorganization of the schedule, ignore first post as it is outdated. Individual races will be announced in their own thread.
