Lime rock?! Are you kidding me?! Too Small! many crash! very sad

Pre-season expectations of Lime Rock:

I'd rather have Monza without the chicane than Lime Rock...

I see long beach being more of a crash fest than limerock but keep an open mind guys. If you call your passes like you should be doing and pay attention i have no doubt these will be epic races. The track has run off there is room for forgiveness pkus it is a rather wide track for as small as it is. Unlike long beach where there are walls instead of grass and about half the width of limerock. Plus LB is only a half mile longer with more turns

Two questions:

One, would it be too much of an inconvenience to include the various timezone start times?

Second, is this the first time this event is being run on FM6? If so, how are there lap records already? Are they from series development? If so,those should not count.

The lap records are from the Forza 5 series we ran. Same tracks, different game, older cars. Also, I think that considering that Lime Rock has the rumble strip problems, it's a bad idea till that's fixed. I agree with TechnologicMau5 with Monza Alt. as we tested that earlier in the week and it was pretty fun. 230mph flat out into the long right hander, no brakes till the chicane!

Monza is NOT showing up for this particar season it will be in the 2nd season later in 2016 where there will be no american tracks featured. Neo ill get on that when i get home.

Ok man. Calm down. A simple "No thank you" would have sufficed...

Sorry for coming off harsh, was not my intention. So appologies here.

Not sure of the relevance since it was a different game with older cars.

However, if this has to be there, then that should be referenced in the listing. For example:

October 16th - Round 1 Long Beach, 41 Laps = 80 Miles (FM5 Lap Record: Xx VenomTDI xX - 1:08.288)

The reason is there may be some of us who haven't played FM5 much, if at all, and/or who are new to TORA. One cannot assume everyone is going to understand what is trying to be communicated. It is much more informative.

Those are there neo as im fully expecting them all to be smashed, differnt game aside. If its causing that much confusion ill just remove them all together as this is the first time i have included them

Leave it how it is Louis. It's self explanatory the records had to be set in Forza 5, seeing as Forza 6 just came out. Gives everyone somethingnto shoot for eradicating the ols track records!

My opinion about the track records goes back to real life track records at Indy itself.

The records set in older cars under widely differing rules packages stand and are still the target to shoot for in setting a new record.

For that reason, I see a realistic reason to include those track records in coming seasons.

We're using the bus stop for Watkins Glen, right?

I think you guys are making a big deal out of something so minor. Just leave the track records, it honestly doesn't matter.

Yes bandit

Which layout of limerock will we be running?

the 1.5 mile layout, the classic uphill. surprisingly the cars don't catch air.

Lime Rock I think will be the most fun track of the season

Sonoma Indy? There's either Full, GP or Short...

GP Circuit my friend

Daytona Night which layout will that be?

The 24h layout with all the lights.

Guys is it too late to enter for the last race?
