Perhaps the most famous track in Japan, Suzuka is also one of the oldest. Opening in 1962. Suzuka is unique being one of few major racetracks anywhere that follows a figure-8 layout—the back straight passes over the front of the track. Suzuka is a challenging 3.6 mile course, with a final chicane in the Casino Triangle area, and a dangerous pair of large-radius turns known as Spoon Curve and 130R (i.e., 130 meter radius). There is also a difficult series of S-curves (turns 3 through 7) to test your car's composure in transition. Spoon was redesigned in 2002 to be safer, and the Casino Triangle chicane has been revised several times over the years to control speeds going into the final straight and pit lane underneath the famous amusement park carousel. One of the best places to pass is the final chicane, but miss your braking point and you'll find yourself in the service road and losing positions fast. The return of the Forza Sports Car Series to Suzuka Circuit will be a historic event and challenge for each racer to overcome.

I need to pre-race. I should be available on Saturday night at around 9:30 P.M. EST at the earliest. I also need to qualify then to reduce the 75 second penalty to 45, because I couldn't find anyone available this evening.
Anyone available?

I got rid of the sig because im to stupid to know how to resize it. And it is an American based team so why not have the national guard on it?

My schedule is not on my side as far as FSCS is concerned today. I was trying to get on but I may not be able to until late evening. If that is the case I will be on EARLY and most of the day Sunday.

I need to do the same. Didn't think I would be home but I am making it home today. Not sure what time. Hopefully early enough to qual but if not at least I will be racing.

That really stinks, Don. I also feel bad for the 5 racers who lagged out of A lobby. And jpn, I thought I was gonna get you after I came out of the pits. Congrats to Raceboy and No Brakes, and to jpn--that was rough for a while.
