Depending on the time that date should work for me.

Just remembered that the 26th is the date of an annual music festival that I usually attend.  I mainly just go for the drinking, and it starts at 10am...usually over by 6.  So...I'm a maybe now.

Pirelli pulls out of Cote d’Rockets

Sometime today, Pirelli announced in a press release that it will no longer sponcor the Cote d’Rockets or act as tire supplier.  After a second incident during an independent tire test session in preparation for the race. As seen here:
Pirelli has decided that it would not be in its best interest to continue offering its Pirelli P-0-Sports tire in light of the ongoing issues.
Members of both Sitting Duck Racing and PD Racing Association we at the independent test and had the following comments:
PD RA: “We do not believe the tires were the issue, the P-0-S tires are perfect. If anything, they might be too perfect.”
SDR: “um…”  
With only 2 weeks to go it will be difficult to find a new sponcor.

Stay tuned...

Now on to the serious stuff:  We are 1 story piece and about two weeks away from the race.

I'm in the process of updating the front post with all the info over tonight and tomorrow in-between the Long Beach races.  Start time is 6pm est. I thought about moving the date but given we are getting close to Undy as well, I'd rather not run it too close to that race, assuming it gets run.   

My guess is we all expected the pit stop problems to be resolved by now. Despite the issues my plan is to move forward with running the race bugs and all, but ultimately its up to all of you.

Shall we continue or hold off a while longer in the hopes the game issues will get fixed?

I'm still planning on making it.

[Wolfpack987]

If I can make it home by 6pm (EST I'm assuming?) then I'm in.  But I'll be drunk and relying on a bus for transportation so if it leaves late there's not much I can do.

[dlrws6]

Yep eastern time.

[Wolfpack987]

Prob can't make it

If it was 7 I could though

In a 13st hour deal a new title sponcer has been found for the inaugural Cote d’Rockets.  Fratelli Tires a small Italian Tire manufacturer has signed on as the title sponcer and tire provider for the inaugural event, replacing Pirelli tires which pulled out as title sponcer and tire provider after several incidents that were linked to potential tire issues.
Fratelli Tires will be providing their Fratelli Universal sports tire for the race and all remaining testing and qualifying sessions.  The Fratelli Universal tire is a unique one size fits all approach to automotive tires.



Fratelli Tires is a small family owned business which is led by the head of the family, Mama Fratelli, seen below.
