Please vote if you plan to participate! We got a lot of votes in the original polls, and only about 1/3 as many this time around. But as of right now, the specific schedule of the race is as follows:
Lobby opens: 2:30 PM EST, October 10, 2015
Race begins: 3:00 PM EST
Race ends: 6:00 PM EST
The polls currently show a strong preference for a three-hour race and, although most people would
prefer
to start at 4:30, there is one voter who requires a 3:00 start time.
If that was you, and you won’t be able to finish the race either way, please let me know so that I can bump the start time back for everyone else.
ANOTHER NOTE: Depending on the ease of obtaining a GT or LMP car within less than a month, I may allow some standard cars with full race aero and engine swaps from their racing counterparts. (For example, I imagine the C7 Corvette can be given a C7.R engine and whatnot to essentially turn it into a C7.R) This option will only be available to those of you who either aren’t able to earn enough credits for a race car or those of you who get the game too late to have time for it. If you are able to purchase a race car, you must do so instead of using this method.
If you haven’t already, watch this video. Keep in mind that every GT or LMP car made in 2010 or later is eligible for this race, so look at their prices and stats and try to find the one you want.

That was probably me. But I will try to make it in general, hoping that I can still order my Forza xbone this week and get it running in time.

I voted for the earlier time since for us in the UK the earlier the better. The current early time still puts us finishing at 10pm which is lateish for me (tend to be up early and busy on sundays).

When it gets closer to race day, I’ll see if anyone would mind starting much earlier, like 1:00 or 2:00 EST. It’s difficult to schedule something that will take most of the afternoon when everyone here has their afternoon at a different time.

Yeah I can see how it would be awkward, I’ll keep an eye out for these posts so I can stay up to speed.

I’d prefer earlier to later but still can make it if it is the later of the times

Nope it’s a 100% Canadian company but they are built on a Ford F550 platform so maybe that’s why.
