Interesting, I just noticed in the main post I said HSR is the starting track but used the HSR Reverse track map.  Whom ever gets there first feel free to use either direction or even both if so desired :).

It's the stock weight for a couple of the cars I think, some are more and some are less though.. it's a great opportunity to grab some more expensive cars that you can tunafy afterwards (or before if they fit at least weight wise), at least that's my plan :D.

I'm with Wizard. Awesome track maps. Funny thing I just assumed you stole them off the internets.  (http://i583.photobucket.com/albums/ss272/james_mikel/STGT%20forum/lol1.gif)

For the most part that's exactly what I did do Dude, well I stole the original images from the interweb and threw them at Photoshop to try and hide that fact ;D.

Well, i got there a bit late....but just as Feldynn had left the lobby and about the very same time that Nosoks joined.  I had some trouble (again) with the paddles on the G25, so I had to opt into using the Auto Tranny. :-X (don't get me started).

While runnig with LR_MR_Chevy, Nosoks, Bob-vi, Ronin, Cip_Tuna, and others, LR_MR_Tanker showed up. He asked about the room/car specs and I mentioned them, and somewhere along the line, I quoted Nosoks' Signature quote: "If everyone followed the first rule, we wouldn't need any other rules"  - "First Rule: Pay Attention".

Now obviously this absolutely has to be one of the most prophetic statements EVER, and I usually abide by it 100 percent (except for me- tonight).   Well I could not understand WHY I was 2 seconds slower than most everyone else, but I continued to race different Grand Tourers.   When I left the lobby, I looked at my car specs and looked at the race spec and noticed one teeny lil' detail I did not follow - I ran Sports Hard instead of running Sport Soft Tires....................................

Details, details......Ugh! :-\    Don't get OLD!

Only got to run one race but it was enjoyable. I am usually not a fan of such portly vehicles but in the right crowd on the right track they were actually fun. Thanks to Feldynn and to everyone for sharing the track.
