I thought I would throw a few notes out there regarding this “series” of races that I have been asked:
-
It’s not really a race series, we do not keep track of who wins, points, or qualifying. You show up and race and have fun with us, we will bribe you with a car.
Doesn’t matter if you win the race, any of the races, or finish dead last every time, everybody gets the same prizes. Well, the prize car you choose anyway.
-
Paints, color schemes and numbers are optional. As long as you have the right car with the right tune, it doesn’t matter what you have on your car…well, keep it clean guys. None of us need to get banned.
After racing with us once we will take care of the plain car.
-
I had a question about participants providing paint jobs. Nope, racers do not have to do anything buy show up and have fun. We will provide all of the prize cars. Again, if you want to race, there is not a required paint or vinyl or number.
Since we are having some connection problems in the lobbies, guys please read this and if necessary go to the link if you might be the culprit.
Here is an Xbox forum post about NAT settings: http://forums.xbox.com/xbox_forums/xbox_support/f/9/t/157383.aspx
"Open, moderate or strict NAT? How do I know my NAT status?
Just turn on your console, go up into the ribbon to the “Settings”, then select the “System” tile in the upper left. If necessary, choose your appropriate connection type (wired or wireless), and then do a network test to Xbox Live.
If your console doesn’t give you an error message about NAT, you already have an open NAT. Congratulations. You are finished here. Go play! If you experience problems with some friends, ask them to do the network test for themselves, and if they have a strict or moderate NAT, direct them here."

Im in this one ? Can we tune our own if not that’s fine also .
CFunk, wld like to participate but with working 2nd shift in ( PST ) zone on weekdays I can’t make the times.
Please download the tunes from my storefront. We are trying to keep everyone somewhat close together on the car setups.
Sorry to hear that man. I know the time is a bit odd, but seemed to be the best for the time being. Who knows, maybe it will change, we will just have to see how this goes.
As long as it’s within a time frame I can make it…I’ll be there for sure.
I have a long line of ideas for these cars…I’ll be doing multiple versions of a particular design with different sponsors and colors to make several versions for each car. So people and/or teams can race them and either stand out from the pack or stand together as a team.
Here’s just a taste of the cars I have already produced for this, I took a slightly more NASCAR approach to my designs but overall I think they will still work.
I’ll take some more pictures of the other Camaro’s and get to work on the remaining cars shortly…so more pictures will be coming soon.
Cars lookin good , D !! Elm’s Javelins are “clean n mean” Hope to finish my prize cars next few days. Decided on mactching set of the 4 - Race Series exclusive.
Will most definitely join in the racing as schedule permits. Still in the middle of soccer season Know you will run this well, CFunk
appreciate all your time and efforts for the club. Excellent job on EVERYTHING. Thanks.
Thanks IROC! Can’t wait to see your matching set of cars! Good looking cars D! CFunk, glad you took on this project and I know it will be great!
Thank you Iroc. I like to race lots of different cars throughout a given racing session. So, basically I’m never in the same car twice. So, I’m going to have a bunch of different paint schemes and I’ll happily give any or all of them out as prize cars for the group. For instance, for DLK’s Nationwide Race series I have 15 different paint schemes the I can chose from…and it’s looking like I’ll have just as many if not more paint schemes for this series.
I’m just going to toss this out there…I am no good at tuning and have no tunes for any of these cars. I’m going to need some kind of help to keep things fair and balanced. I know standardized tunes were mentioned and I’m definitely all for that…it’s the only way I’m going to stand a chance.
Im in with the AMC

Very sharp ride, CUDA =]
Added more prize cars.
Getting really excited for this. I will be able to do every other week.
Elm and Kool, the prize cars look amazing.
Also just curious as why the Challenger and Cuda aren’t used, are they just too much of an advantage? I have all four of the others ready to go.
