Any and all tuning is allowed but may not exceed 607pp. Then slap on some Racing tires and you're ready.
Racing will be held in an OPEN Lobby and will start promptly at 5pm EDT. The lobby will open at 4:30pm and Qualifying will begin at 4:45pm. After qualifying do not leave the pit area or you will be placed in the back of the pack instead of your qualifying position.
You can plan on pitting at least 5 times in the race; maybe more based on your driving style, but definitely at least five times. All driving aids will be disabled. False Starts engaged. "Race for Real" mode. Heavy Damage. Heavy penalties.
Still you can expect some very goos times as we race around Nürburgring 24h for 12 laps (186 miles).
Also also, there will be prizes for the podium finishers.
So grab some faulken tires, or any other kind of tires you choose and let's race!
This event is brought to you by upChuck Enterprises (what's upChuck?) and the great folks at Ninja Tuning & Testing Services.

Race Fast! Race Hard!! Race Clean!!! Have FUN!!!!
Our event participation guidelines are very simple. We ask that all drivers race hard, fast and clean. Participants should control their cars as if they owned them and avoid in-race contact with others. If your actions disturb the forward progress of another driver we ask that you pull over or slow down and allow the other driver to regain his position ahead of you. Have fun!!!

So once every 2 laps if you are good or once every lap if you are me?
DudeTuna:
Charlie is just being kind and reminding everyone to not exit the track after they have a Q time. Because if they do they will start at the back of the grid. That's how it always works by the way.
