[Ryan]

I won't promise I won't exit every corner backwards but why not? I'm in.

 

[TobiasR]

In!

 

[Tommi Saari]

Yes, please!

 

[Lorenzo Bonder]

Added to the list!

 

[Ricoow]

In!

Exactly what you wanted right?

 

[TobiasR]

Exactly what you wanted right?

Yup. Thought you might have had something to do with this. I VERY much appreciate the track choice also.

 

[kedy89]

Maybe. Hope I'm back home in time for this.

 

[Tommi Saari]

This track is bumpier than any stage at thousand lakes rally. I'm pretty sure those brake bumps are a bit over done. Yet to find good period on board footage.
Giant challege to keep that turbo rocket on track and find the smoothest line around that paved field. I had to bring out formula abarth to learn the track .

 

[Rudolph Maré]

Sign me in provisionally. I'm not sure I'll have time to learn the track or get used to the car. I have last driven the 98T when it was just released, and back then it was pretty hard to keep it on track. Especially in 100% boost mode, which gives you maybe 2 or 3 laps before your engine blows .

People who raced these back in the day must have had balls of steel.

 

[TobiasR]

We should be finishing this race right before the F1 cars start in Texas. Should be a good warmup!

 

[TobiasR]

I'm probably gonna be a bit late, but I hope I can make it in time for the race...

 

[Matyas Kone]

count me in but I never was on this track...

 

[Lorenzo Bonder]

Server is up folks. Vote twice for next session to get to practice when Official Practice starts!

 

[zAmboni]

I'll give it a try. Never driven the track and I'll just try to stay out of the way if I suck.

 

[Matyas Kone]

guys I can't join my laptop is crashed and I have to fix till tomorrow morning, so sorry.
next time

 

[kedy89]

sorry guys, came home just now. Hope you had a blast

 

[Tommi Saari]

Personal goal achieved, lost it four times but kept it off the armco. I think I deserve a beer.

 

[zAmboni]

It was kinda fun. I almost felt like I was cheating because I had ABS and TC on, but I thought it was better to do that than do donuts in the infield grass all race long .
