RACE NOTES:

- I think we've finally got the balance-of-performance adjustment system nailed down; most everyone was within about .3 or 4 seconds of each other lap-time-wise and finishing times were a lot closer than last week. That being said, a lot of us (again) ran faster than the target time for this race but I'm not going to take off points for anyone since it was only by like a half-second for most people. When tuning for next week's race please don't account for that half-second , just aim for the max time again. If everyone runs a little fast we should be just fine.

- We don't really have a specific track in mind for the B450 race next weekend since I don't know if you guys want to race Le Mans in those cars. I was thinking Suzuka if you guys want to do something else.

- You'll also notice we had new guy, robluvscar1 (camaroboy68ss's friend), for this round. If you guys know anyone who still plays Fourza and think they'd like to join our series they're more than welcome, we'd love to have more people race with us.

UPCOMING RACES:

1/25: B450 @ TBD (Le Mans?)

1/31: A550 @ Le Mans

I keep forgetting about this! I joined the Oppo club in Fourza but I've yet to participate in a race.

Every Saturday at 4, man, set a phone reminder, whatever you need to do. Surprised you haven't seen any of the reminder posts for any of the races, I always feel like I'm spamming Oppo with all the threads about these series.

Any experienced racers looking for a Forza 5 Series, I just started doing this miata club spec series that is ridiculously awesome.

I say le mans it up for the B450. Should be interesting.

That's what I'm feeling, just don't want it to get monotonous. I'll put a poll or something in my reminder post tomorrow and see what everyone else says.

That's probably best, or just shorten the race a little given the track.

I was thinking like 4 or 5 laps, nothing major. Haven't run any test laps yet but the A550 cars were around 5:10, I'd imagine the B450 would be about 5:30 so yeah, maybe a 30 minute race compared to the 35 or 40 we normally do.
