RACE NOTES:
- Fuck the breadsticks at Tetre Rouge.
- We didn't have any (major) crashes so thanks everyone for driving clean, especially on a track like this. Keep it up at Infineon and we shouldn't have any problems.
- This was the closest race of the season thus far, with positions 1-4 and 6-9 finishing within 3 and 4 seconds of each other, respectively, which is actually kind of amazing considering it's Le Mans. That being said, I was considering moving the target lap times up a bit for the rest of the races so that the faster dudes won't have to tune down so much, let me know what you guys think. We have a good thing going here so I don't want to mess with it too much.
- This was also the only race of the season where the majority of the field didn't run over the maximum lap time and I thank those of you who kept to that limit. That being said, a couple people (one of them being me) were over two seconds faster than the max time. I'm not going to take off any points since pace-wise it only works out to about 6/10ths of a second extrapolated over a three-mile-long track, but for next week be sure not go over the target time in practice , it'll even out during the race.
- Shout-out to The Honda Man for scoring the first Mopar podium and win of the season.
- That's really about it, not much else to note apart from thanking Nonster, Decay, and HyundaiBroNowHasAMiata for stopping by for some racing. The field as a whole got pretty spread out this race but Infineon should be more competitive, don't get discouraged or anything.
CURRENT ORLOVE TROPHY STANDINGS:
Two challengers appear for the Orlove Trophy: HyundaiBroNowHasAMiata for rolling his Mach 1 at Tetre Rouge and Corey for flipping his beloved shrimp. Shame on both of you.
Tohru (Tohru Rokuno) - 2
AutoFixation (Parlock3) - 1
Kampfmesser - 1
HyundaiBroNowHasAMiata - 1
Corey CC97 - 1

Benchmark times for Infineon?

I was the other Orlove...
Did no one get a picture?

1:51.5 is the tentative number, I'll post the final one tomorrow.
![]() 02/02/2015 at 18:26 |

For both classes?

Seriously FUCK Tetre Rouge, I was gaining on either The Honda Man, or camaroboy68ss when I Orlove'd.
![]() 02/02/2015 at 18:26 |

I didn't know anyone Orlove'd. I was too busy denying Camaroboy his honor.

Also when will we know what the target time for B450 @ Infineon

Wondered why you ended up in the back and don't think so, Honda Man got the replay but didn't watch that far, not sure if anyone else saved it.

I will get a win this season! Hopefully next race, infieon is one of my better tracks

what layout are we using for the two races at Infineon?
![]() 02/02/2015 at 18:30 |
|
Tomorrow I'll post the final time, I ran a 1:51.5 yesterday night so it'll likely be in the 1:51-2 range.

This was a lot of fun even for me in the lonely desert known as 5th place. I'll have to try to make the Infineon race too!

For the B450 race, A550's probably going to be 5-6 seconds faster. I test out tracks the week of the race so I won't know any times prior to that.

Regular circuit, I thought about doing the NASCAR layout but it was kinda boring to drive. Time's around 1:51.5 for the B450 race, I'll post tomorrow what the final maximum will be.

Ok, and which configuration is it, thanks again?
![]() 02/02/2015 at 18:36 |

Yeah it was a really weird with you and Parlock kind of all alone and then everyone else on each other's bumpers, especially at such a huge track as Le Mans. Infineon should be a lot better about that, this was just a strange one.

Which Infineon are we racing on?

You said it was me gaining on you when you Orlove'd.

Full circuit?
![]() 02/02/2015 at 19:39 |

Yep, unless otherwise noted on the calendar all the tracks are run in their longest configuration.

Alright, sounds good.

I got the replay. I'll have to go through it and get the picture. I ain't even mad since I ended up in the absolutely intense battle between 6th, 7th, 8th, and 9th because of the flip.

Pretty sure that was the first win for a Mopar this season. Good job!
