It is going to be the same setup as last week. The 10 minute qualifying heat with best clean lap time

I'm in the Midwest (Zulu-6). I work after I get off of work, so I play late. Tag is same as my handle. Probably won't be hitting the bars tonight because my friends spend money on performance automatic transmissions.

Lets not forget to qualify in a fresh lobby so positioning is correct. Also, are we still doing a rolling warmup1st lap?

Yes, still doing our warm up lap and rolling start

Actually, looks like I may be able to make it to this one after all. How do I join? Do I wait for an invite or do I look for a particular game? Sorry, I'm still pretty new to this but excited to give it a try. I set up my car yesterday, haven't driven it much but feels good so far.

Once you get an xBox Live friend request, approve the request. We have a pretty complete "network" of folks who are friends on XBL, if you've friended one or more of us, you'll get a game or party invite.

EDIT: if you've got a car built to the spec, I can get on and send you an FR now. Maybe we could get some practice in.

Rolling start f'd me up last week, as I had already muted ya'll mouthbreathers (I missed whoever has the random crazy mid turn psycho clown laugh however. Here's my vote for standing starts.

I'd be very disappointed to see the rolling starts go away.

I'm up for 9 tonight. On now, but may be away for a bit need food before race. Hopefully this time I can back up my claim to a mid pack finish.

WTF??? I though 9:00 was practice??? Suddenly everyone's gridding up for the rolling start? I quit the game, assuming I missed qualifying???

Got it. Just figured I pulled a dick move by blowing by everyone. Didn't realize we were doing rolling start on practice. Assumed I'd missed qualifying and bailed. Red-eye.

You weren't alone, Poop. Thankfully those with mics started discussing whether or not we were going to figure it out

Great race tonight!

The Brake For Moose, Ben & Jerry's, Thule Mazda ran great right up until it was upside down. For the first time ever on this track. Sigh.

Also, I should really get a mic.

Edit: Thanks to whoever it was that flipped me upside-up. Griffin I think?

Congrats to Mutant for the victory. I had fun. The game lag is what caught me out. I was looking forward to having a good battle up until the quicksand caught me out going thru the Esse's.

Hopefully, when I get down to Georgia, I can snag an Xbox and jump back on.

Great race everyone! I got my pit stop done a bit earlier than expected (near end of lap 1) after some excitement trying to avoid a car on it's roof and hitting someone that was sideways (sorry).

Definitely looking forward to the next one!
