drive fast don't crash

To be honest he isn't wrong haha This is a super tight track so crashing is a big danger here. Just make sure you're aware of what's going on around you with these cars as they are the fastest we run at TORA regularly. And overtaking is difficult here so take your time with it Other than that, just have fun!

Not sure if it was just me, but my game was running at less than 5 fps basically the entirety of qualifying and now I start basically last. Not gonna lie that's got me heated cause I had a decently fast car.

'Fight 4 LuhMer' has to be the most solid collab entry name ever.

ok I know a lot of you guys are frustrated with what happened in race but this is why I get this race out of the way 1st, as the season carries on the racing will get better and you guys will be more comfortable racing one another. thank you all again for making this the largest indycar race in tora history with 47!!!!!

Good racing everyone. Really enjoyed tonight race, one of the best races I've had. I love these types of tracks where it's all or nothing which lead me to my 2nd race win in B lobby.
Good racing with LMP Satistic and Jamie90VXR before he got taken out.

Hope that next month is just as good.

should be tracks are much more open and forgiving!

The left hander after the twinkie right hander, where you turn in and the left wall is close I hit that wall and got major damage and had to pit. but hey ho, somehow I got more points than you lot even tho I finished 4th

Just wondering how a good few people are ahead of me on the table when i was in front of them when finishing the race....

Yeah I was wondering that too. I think nova may have entered the wrong results in

I owe a huge apology to Diablo. He made a move late in the race and I misjudged how much room I had when turning in. Cost him a really good finish.

guys I fixed the points, anytime there is an issue like that please place a notice in the results and standings thread, that was a sort issue with the doc not an info entry issue

Can someone please add the qualifying procedure for ovals into the rulebook? Last season for Daytona it wasn't there, nor was it mentioned in the sign in thread, and Integra and I showed up expecting 15 minutes. Don't want new entrants to do the same.

BUMP. Also, I assume there's no e-braking around tracks for a quicker laptime?

updated in the rules in regs it is highlighted red in the rules, and also this is now the 2nd time ive heard of e-braking to get a faster lap time. it's late to prohibit this race but may have to starting at the next one as this seems to be the new way of driving which goes against the spirit of racing. IMO

The grass braking of FM6...

Such a shame to hear about these little things... ruins it

Dirt braking is non existent as you do lock up and crash now.

I agree with you, I race a lot of P class and most of the top times involve the ebrake being used somewhere, it's very frustrating and doesn't feel like real racing

My appolagies for incidents with the final lap of Lobby c

If any problems are there then Please SI it.

sorry

I'd like to give a shout out to LMP Statistic for a great race at Monza. We had many close encounters, including twice side by side through the first flat-out right hand bend (Curva Biassono). Some very tight racing and no crashing or damage at either low or high speed. It made it a very fun race for me, so thanks!

Yeah, some very nice racing by most in my lobby. Just never saw so much cutting in a TORA event before.

I found the r3 that monza was fun. it's a pain to turn of because you need to find a balance point. hope you enjoy the race.

p.s don't why i am saying w week later.

For those asking about why stock tuning is enforced, it's because those who don't know how to tune (myself included) have been caught out in some very dangerous ways going through the turns. The most popular being the car snapping towards the wall for an unknown reason. If this were to happen in the middle of a pack then many bad things would ensue. Plus it'll now be a much closer race due to everyone running the same tune.

Remember to practice the pit entries and exits BEFORE the race. Last thing you want is to lose positions because you crashed or didn't follow procedure.
