Just be thankful this isn't government run  :D

We really should work on a start date now, I'm afraid interest may be waning..

How's Sunday the week after the Super Bowl?  In other words, about one and a half weeks from today?

One other thing...Dirt's running this series.  He's in testing right now.  Personally, I'm excited at the idea of running with him again.

Quick bump/reminder...12 hours of Sebring is on for Sunday, 2/8/09, 3 eastern.  We have more than eight participants, so if someone wants to run a Saturday room, I don't have any objections, but I'll be out of town visiting the new neice.

Fndr, I'll be out of the country then, so that will eb one less competitor for the first round. At least that gives me a chance to go in an upward direction on the leaderboard in the succeeding weeks :D

I'll be running an INGS RX-7, as the Renault is way too fast to be worth driving.

2:04.9xx at Sebring, with chance for atleast a 2:04.6xx is just way to fast, and its a LB car anyways.

can't wait for the race!

'Fraid so - after tonight I won't be on again until Tuesday evening so this is a round I'll miss. Still, there's a bunch of others for me to lose in. And it's not like I'm likely to beat Pete or Snyder (not to mention Open) at Sebring :'(

OK, so I've cleaned up the first post a bit.  Reno, Drift, SK15, and TCD, you'll need to pick a car by the first race (obviously).  Remember that you cannot change your car over the course of the season, except for the rims and the tire compound, so choose your build carefully.  I can note the car after the first race, so there's really no need to post here, unless you just want to.  Also, if I have any of the car choices wrong, that will become apparent in the first race, though I'm pretty sure that most of the ones I've noted are at least the most recent thing I've seen.  There will be a practice session tonight, and the 12 hours of Sebring will be held Sunday at 3 Eastern.  IIRC, that's 8 for the Brits. 

This, however, brings about one question.  I'm showing 10 entrants, assuming everyone (other than Spiny) shows.  Is anyone else willing to host a second room, and if so, is it going to be on Sunday or Saturday?  (If there's a second room on Sunday, room assignments will be determined by coin flip.  If the rooms come out uneven, I'll try to create two equally challenging rooms with as few trades as possible, or re-sort if necessary.  I would also be willing to attempt a seeding approach, odd seeds in one room and even in the other, but I'm not sure of the best method for determining the seeds.)

I can't make Sunday race, got called in to work then.  If there is a saturday room, i'd be willing to participate, or host a saturday room.

AFAIK, no one else has shown an interest.  If it happens, just post up the results.  Remember to save the replays.
