Staniol / #5 / Hendricks Motorsports

I really do not know if there are differences between these cars, but this has a color that warns you to avoid me on the track..

The cars are all equal, so no problem there.

If we happen to be on the practice server at the same time at any point during the week, I'll be glad to work with you and get you up to speed.

That applies to anyone, really.

I've just signed up for the FFRL Daytona 500 with a prize of $250. Its using the VHR2012 mod with fixed setups. The sign up page is http://www.ffrl.org/ It's on the 25th Feb. Anyone else up for joining me?

interesting, considering it, not great at ovals chad and pumbaa will agree with me on that 5 laps down in my first oval race, crashed in the watkins glen on, and yeah not particularly great at these, i will run here first, and if there is still space and i enjoyed the one here then i may come over and put an entry in

...now that's tempting.

Not sure I can pull off doing two long races withing a week's time, though. Likely to incur the wrath of the spouse.

But I might float the idea. :P

It's just shy of 9:30pm Eastern time, I'm going to be on the server for a half hour or so.

I should be around for practice tonight, though a little after 8pm as that's when I put my son to bed.

Guys, I saw a few things tonight that everyone will need to be more careful about.

Don't crowd whoever has the inside line and push them down onto the slickery yeller line.

Moving down on the inside cars to try and squeeze between the two cars when there isn't enough room.

Rubbin' is okay. Slammin' is not.

No one was being intentionally bad, but with the way these cars move around, it could turn into a pinball game with little effort.

Remember to stay off the yellow line, and if you pass someone inside while on the yellow line, you have to give the position back. IOWs, the inside yellow line cannot be used as an advantage.

Thanks.


Next scheduled practice on Saturday at 12 PM eastern time.

I was thinking about running with you gents, but that mod's got some of the screwiest FFB that I've even felt.

Just spent over a hour trying to tweak it, nothing helps. I've been through the Richard Petty Driving Experience and I can't get it to feel remotely like what I felt in those cars, no matter what I've tried. I've taken RealFeel out, put it back in and adjusted it from one extreme to another...can't even get it anywhere close.

I'm definitely considering throwing my hat in...I did two tours in the MNRL Busch league and two other leagues during the NR2003 days, but the last time I raced online in any serious way was 200...8 - ish. My G25 has been sitting, gathering dust for months. I'd love to run but kinda worried I'd be the paddle in Doug's virtual pinball nightmare...
