Hi Guys,

Forum Schedule says August 30th for Michigan Speedway -
Homepage says August 23rd

Whats the correct Date?

Always follow the forum. But for now, it's neither, we made a mistake as there are some conflicts with Trans Am
Martin will post, but it's pretty certain it won't be this Sunday (the 23rd)

I watch the date yesterday and it was 23th of august.

Why the date was changed if there is a Trans-Am race on same day ?

However oval racing is difficult, can we have a server to practise ?

i found a TPSCC track for Michigan but not very nice

i have a VHR_Michigan from Nascar which is pretty good

or maybe first, can Jason launch the Michigan race thread to know how much drivers will enter ?

Please stand by; Martin is in the process of sorting everything out...

ok Jason
thanks for fast answer

i saw your avatar, you'll be at home Jason !!! hope for the best

We change the dates because ALL the tracks have issues, and the one person here that corrects them works 80+ hours a week and struggles to find time to correct them all. Besides 23rd of August is too early, and it'd hurt the attendance (which was poor to begin with).

Who is this guy?

He drives like the devil is chasing his soul!

I know all HSO tracks are unique, but we have successfully used USPITS > Mich_JE  in another race league.

Well, it'll be very helpfull for me if the race is to be as late as possible since I moved to my new home, and I still heve no internet there (yeah, its Croatia ), and at this moment I have my PC installed at my sisters place so I can drive HSO races... (so everybody around me is thrilled, my wife, my sister, her housband and kids   )

And one more thing, it would be great if you could determin the track version, besides its not yet HSO "modified", for practice purpsose..

This should be the definitive version of the second semester schedule:

#	Map	Date	Event	Circuit	Type	Distance
11	[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]	Sep 6	U.S. 500	Michigan	Speedway	250 laps
12		Sep 20	Nazareth	Nazareth Speedway	Speedway	225 laps
13		Oct 4	Grand Prix of Houston	Houston	Street	100 laps
14		Oct 18	Grand Prix of Cleveland	Burke Lakefront	Road Course	100 laps
15		Nov 1	Rio Indy 400 Km	Rio-Jacarepagua	Speedway	133 laps
16		Nov 15	Gold Coast Indy Grand Prix	Surfers Paradise	Street	65 laps
17		Nov 29	Grand Prix of Detroit	Belle Isle	Street	72 laps

Im not heavy metal fan, but somethimes they have the right words for right situations

to help the drivers who want to practise on the 2 last difficulties : Rd18 : Detroit - Belle Isle Park

i guess we will be running the very good version v1.0 by jpalesi

[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] isle park

heavy file (216 Mb) due to many track layouts through the years ('85-'88-'92-'94-'98)

1998 layout is included in 2 versions: Regular or FPS version

and Rd19 - Fontana

i think we may use TPSCC Fontana Speedway v2.0 used for betatest of this great mod

we have a Baseline setup for Fontanta is the userdata sub-folder CartFactor

named: CART98_baseline_fontana.svm
it is quite good to drive fast for a beginner like me
it helps me a lot for Michigan the same D-shape oval

if someone can share a Detroit setup to finsih the race not in the walls

The race thread will be posted tomorrow after the open race.

Thanks Jason.

Oh. My. God.
I just can't believe we're going to use "that", just for the sake of having a race there.
