TORA.US Touring Masters General Discussion.

Cheers Zeta!

In light of the delays in Touring Masters, to speed things up, the next series will try a new format...

One 35-40 minute race, with a full course yellow one lap shy of midrace, followed by a mandatory pit stop, then green one lap past midrace.

The format is sound the time table and alternative host's need to be worked on... I propose qual 830est /330bst first race propmly at 9

To help erebus out I can host

That would work, your hosting last night had no issues( assised from personal qualms of connection.

Round results have been updated,
I will update Drivers and Teams standings in the morning because my laptop is killing my wrists

The idea that there would be two lobbies, and we were not ready for that, didn't occur to me until Tuesday. My bad, but to be honest when the series started, we were just hoping to get a decent single lobby grid of "more than 10" as a goal. I had hopes to get more, but just never expected it.

The single race format is NASCAR based, but eliminates down time between the races and limits the meet's restarts to a total of three for the whole night. I see a 30-45 minute overall time savings.

I do like the idea of Q's at 8:30PM EST/Race at 9PM EST though.

TH3 LOBST3R also said that he would be willing to host as well.

Regrettably, I think I am going to have to withdraw from this series. As I work nights and need to be finished up by 10 pm est at the latest, I knew the 9pm start time would be cutting it close. I fully expected to probably miss the third race. I didn't really care about the points or the standings, I was just hoping to at least run the first two races and have some fun. With the delays last night I would not have been able to even run the first race. I'm not placing any blame, it's no one's fault. That's the nature of the beast, we all know that. Hopefully the next series will have a more favorable time slot for me.

the highlights from both lobbies will be made official a little later today via Facebook and hopefully Twitter.

Promise.

^ pinkie promise? 😁

sure. why not?

I will be making my debut next week in the touring division

(My spelling was never good so please go with it)

I would like to apologise to River_Merc. Durring the race on "Road America" I had arrived at corner 4 with very late braking, and mad heavy contact. I was not aware that I had thrown you off the course, I sincerly apologize for that. I was not up to 100% with the setup I had as I had to rebuild from a preset over night, with very uncomfortable braking and balance.

I'd like to apologise to any other drivers that i had contact with through bumping/ tapping.

From what ive been told, quite a few people have a problem with me after Road America, if its my Racing Style and i gave you a lil tap within the Races i apologise but as far as im aware i didnt take anyone off the track or give anyone damage as everyone knows whos raced me before i will race you as cleany as i can, 

but if its a problem with who i am in General then Suck it up all i have 2 say

From the replays I've seen it wasn't you.... Same livery but I don't know

only thing i remember is giving Akihirro a Lil Tap cause of late braking with Hiredgun going up me inside on turn 3 and kind of expected Akihirro brake a bit later on but bar that i cant remember touching anyone else as i always try my best to avoid tapping people as i know full well a lil tap in these cars can send u into a half spin

It's because your a Brit!!

I don't think I have ever had a problem with you Solar myself.... then again.... I am never that close to you either!  LMFAO
