#77 will be free today. I will be back from next race on.

I'll drive #77 tonight if there are no objections.
Giving this mod one more try. Third time is the charm I hope.

I hope you had the best luck

I would have made it farther if I had remembered to enlarge the radiators for the race. 

Im sorry dudes I didnt show up!
I had best intetnion to watch F1 for an hour, and then win the race , but my familly insisted on a sunday horror evening...

Hope you managed to fill first three rows...

One of those days you are not enjoying it too much but you get the job done and hope for more fun next time

Pedal calibration problems again, so I was mostly stuck in horribly slow 1.49s and ocasionally some 1.48s when the load cell got "unstuck" after hitting it really hard and letting it bounce back to normal position (Rest of the time it was dragging a bit the brake). Clutch also off-calibration so ocasionally engine overreved at the top

But lack of opposition in the thin field allowed me to cruise comfortably in 6th place for some points

Pity that the change in the race date and other things interfered and we got few people racing in this otherwise beautiful track.

Laguna will be much tighter, if there is a place where only 11 cars would not have been so boring it's Laguna but oh well it happened in the place with the longest lap

The track changed, but not the date, a race was scheduled yesterday since the beginning
There's still a dozen of drivers that apparently gave up CART since they didn't bother telling they weren't coming in both attempts at Road America.

If you guys are short on the field clear the entry list of no shows and I will run. I will just set the car up for safety, not speed. I'll just be an also ran with the goal to not change BOTH wings.

Maybe, but I still hope it all will be down to some circumstances coming together. We will see next time, with a race announced in due time etc

@Mike: There is almost always a free car around come race day, so you are welcome to join us

I see two Toyotas open. May try one of those. Perhaps the lower power will keep my rear wheels from passing the fronts so often!

The entry list isn't updated, see the last page to see the latest update. I think all cars have a driver, it's just they don't show up...
But as was said, we've been 20 cars or less for a while, you won't have a problem to find a car. And if you have trouble with the power, run with the lowest boost.

Je suis candidat pour un remplacement ou avoir une voiture.
Si je peux être renseigné assez tôt, je peux mieux m'entrainer.

Merci d'avance

Marcus

Results are posted, but they do not appear on the main page because the schedule dates are now out of whack    At least everyone's stats should be current.

EDIT: Date fixed, so it now appears on the main page.
All points championships are also updated.

resumé de ma course 34 tours avec un pitbull enragé accroché a mon aileron arriere  ( JP )

1 er pit au 17 eme tour , moi Jp Rocky on s arrete ensemble , je ressors devant

2 eme pit au 34 eme tour et la JP a reussi a économisé 1 tour d essence de plus que moi , il pit le tour d apres , me fait l under cut , ressort juste devant moi , de la pendant 2 tours on s est plus que bien chauffé en se doublant et redoublant l un l autre , j ai memoire d un bon side by side dans la 1 er courbe qui s est prolongé jusqu a la sortie du V3

puis apres du a son tour d economisé , j ai du le laisser partir car j ai du reduire mon boost sinon je ne pouvais pas finir la course et je franchi la ligne avec 2l dans le réservoir

Oui pour les screenshots, y'a du matos aux alentours du 35e tour, c'était bien sympa.
Et encore, je sais pas trop comment l'undercut est passé, car j'ai fait une erreur dans le tour avant ton ravito, et je me suis retrouvé à 2 secondes derrière.
