Sport Tire Challenge Series Discussion

should we need to talk about pit entry for Watkins glen or a guide to do it

Pit entry at Watkins Glen is pretty cut and dry. However, if you make an entry that causes issues for other competitors, you're quite likely to see an SI filed against such actions.

The only way to enter the pits is doing a perfectly executed handbrake turn.

If you can pull it off, I won't give you a -440 point penalty

Woooow, really surprised with the decision of the situation between Flying Mikey and Platano Racing (reference number: 183). Platano Racing wins the position over Mikey, taking the lead, and Mikey with all the bad intention, hits him three times until he takes him out of the track. Decision: Warning.

What would have been the decision it was me doing it?

That video linked [ https://youtu.be/K29j-8G9RSY ] is of the clearly defined jump start. It's blatant that he gave himself a run up to gain advantage. There is no defence here.

The decisions stand, you are free to PM me if you have queries. But if you or others want to get smart, I suggest not to, if you want to continue partaking in these series.

you are right, this is the video: https://youtu.be/JkUcx3W08DY

Mikey will tell you himself that I gave him some strong words. But the stewards overall agreed to give a warning based on the mitigating circumstances explained by Mikey in his PM that he was trying to yield to the side that Platano was already committed towards going down. I told him it wasn't smart and in hindsight he should have left the left door open, but a warning is fair as overall Platano did not lose much. It would have been the same if you did it, Detonator.

Thanks.

on the exit of the outer loop, is the track limit the white line or the curb?

Just like any TORA race, unless specifically stated, the white line indicates the track limits.

Had a couple fun races in the EU series today. Too bad I lagged out in R1, as I had a good run going.

I saw a lot of track cutting and exceeding of track limits at the Glenn last night. While I didn't report anything, I'd like to see the track limits respected a bit more.

If you have the replay, file an SI. That is the only way we can police things.

Sorry I didn't want to race this week. I just wasn't feeling it. I signed in on Tuesday but Wednesday I was on iRacing and I couldn't drive. Literally couldn't drive. Got on forza on Thursday and I couldn't drive. Mentally couldn't drive, nothing to do with anyone just I lost the feeling. Sure I could putt around but I wasn't there, I didn't want to be there. I wasn't having fun. It was better off just not being there sorry.

well........race 1.....I finished lasted.......as for race 2........well.......err

Final Score:
Curb- 1
Blaze- 0

I also like how the safety crew is still behind the catch fence not even giving a crap.  

It seems this series has drawn interest from YMTV. They will be streaming coverage of the A Lobby in the US this week so be on your best behavior fellas.
