Sure.. Feel free. As you have access to the Racing Club, you should know the password

Remember to also apply the ARCA Sim Racing patch:

http://forum.racedepartment.com/arca...-released.html

All the other info (see first post of this thread)

So hopefully see you this evening.

[Roy Stevens]

Is there a server online for practice ???..i need lots of it lol

[Lee Clifford]

ok thx sascha!! :bike:

[Lee Clifford]

Any servers on for practice??Im gonna need some lol!!

[Sascha Henken]

Lee. There is one server now running:

RaceDept.com #1 FD (it´s listed in the ingame lobby)

In case you don´t know the password, just use the link in the first post of this thread to get you the password.

If you need more practise of 120 mins, just vote to restart the weekend and the server will restart the practise as often as you want. I´ll be there at 18:00 GMT as I have still to work on something else here.

Also please read this thread: http://forum.racedepartment.com/frie...ips-rules.html

Lots of informations for you I think which are important and/or nessesary to understand

[Gareth Hickling]

I will be there!

[Mark A Warmington]

Now that was fun... That is why I love 1 mile and half mile ovals. You can get some fender damage and still be on the pace of some tight and fast racing.

Loads of respect given to everyone on track and some exciting 3 wide moments.

Thanks all - can't wait till next time.

[Sascha Henken]

At the end of the race I got closer and closer to Christopher and when I was directly behind him I let him feel that I was faster so I gave him a tap on his rear bumper. That just looked so freaking amazing when he wiggled with his car. Lucky he saved it as I didn´t wanted to make him spin around..... That was great racing this evening.

And welcome Lee Cliffords to the club. You did very well for the first time mate. I´m happy that you´re with us here

[Christopher Aponte]

hehehehe
it was a great night to go ARCA
i had the best race (with 7 other great bunch of people )....had a big lead in the beginning....but Sascha was just faster & could have catch me on.......went on defense mode.....& Sascha let me know that he was behind me with a little kiss bump lol....my car got a tiny bit sideways but saved it quickly enough
(don't worry Sascha...i knew you were behind me as i kept looking always behind......i have looked so much that now the left red button on my g25 doesn't work that well LOL )
It was great on Milwaukee Mile

then on to public Daytona night....my first night racing .....at first didn't want to participate.....but then wth....it's for fun......
after quite some restarting we finally got it going......it was only between me & Sascha.......and it came down to Sascha winning me with 0.027 sec lead.....loool that is close ....made some mistakes that i think i could have won....but that's racing

grats guys for some great racing.....
& i think i found my drafting partner....right Sascha

[Sascha Henken]

I think about the Daytona race was, that I kept staying behind you all the time Christopher. That made it possible to save as much fuel as needed. If the yellow wouldn´t came out at the end of the race, I would´ve been able to make it with 0.1 / 0 laps of fuel or so. During the caution I should´ve entered the pits for a Splash&Dash but was stupid enough to go "all or nothing" and stayed it. I turned of my engine as often as possible to save fuel and I saw the needle ticking down more and more. I was sweeting I tell ya. In the end (what a friggin awesome finish with the Top3) i´ve done it with 0.4 gallons of fuel, which was calculated as 0 laps available. On the finish lap my engine got stucking... LOL..... Great fun... More of it please....
