| Everyone please take note of the pit exit procedure added for this event.
Pit Exit Procedure
During qualifying and race sessions, drivers exiting the pits must keep at least two wheels behind the full length of the yellow line. Failure to follow this procedure could result in a post-race penalty. | |

- I'm sorry fellas but I will not be able to broadcast the event as I will be 55 Swedish mil away on my sister's wedding, and it's something I really don't want to miss
I hope that you will be able to sort something out for a live broadcast otherwhise I'll try to sort a race video out later
Good luck and Have fun Please pass along my wishes for every good thing to your sister and her betrothed! As for the Toronto race, I don't know if anything is being planned for a broadcast that hasn't been posted here but, if there are no strong objections and it is OK with Jonaton, I will try to be on-line and record a radio broadcast of the race. Hopefully, this will provide Jonaton some commentary he can merge with a replay and some creative editing. As I am not up to speed on the video feed side of the story, I'm thinking it may be fun to try and go old school and try to paint the picture with words. I say "try to be on-line" because, while it is a holiday weekend here, the remnants of Hurricane Harvey are mucking up the weather. But if the weather breaks and there is a chance to get to the lake or the golf course . . . well, you have my apologies. If someone has something planned, I'll help with that. However, if you see me in a TS channel on my own, please feel free to join in. | |

| OK, admittedly I got late start (I thought the race was next week) but I now find that I am way off pace at this short tight street track. If we had a 7% rule my best lap wouldn't be fast enough let alone trying to put together 102 safe laps. So I'm voluntarily giving up my car for this race to someone waiting or wanting a better one-off ride than they now have.
Thanks to Adam Hackman and David Jaques for the setup help. Both sets improved my comfort and times greatly but whatever oval skills I have are not offering up any chance for success, or even survival, on this track.
Good luck to all who compete. | |

| I guess without Jonatan, we'll be racing "in private" this time around I guess? I think I'll just try to finish this last race on a March chassis, car feels horrible here, the bumps playing with me, not the other way around | |

| I know, that's why I wrote it I hope it will make me a bit more stable on my favourite road courses. Btw: I didn't even notice Ryan and John had picked two of the free cars. Good thing they aren't empty this race though | |

| Took minor suspension damage just before my first pitstop which made handling less than comfortable. Then, while already considering retirement, I came into the pitlane and found a retired car filling my pit box. Oh well, at least I didn't practice much. | |

| I had a similar issue to Dana. I came in for my 2nd stop and found a disabled car parked in my stall. Kudos to the guys of front. You guys are on rails! I didn't really my race setup was THAT far off pace | |

| That's really a bad job by IDT. They made the track, and they should have known better than to stack garage spaces on top of pit stalls. Really sorry about that. | |
