Hockenheimring Baden-Württemberg is a motorsport race track situated near the town of Hockenheim in Baden-Württemberg, Germany, located on Bertha Benz Memorial Route. Amongst other motor racing events, it biennially hosts the Formula One German Grand Prix.The circuit is almost completely flat, with very little change in elevation. The Hockenheimring opened in 1932 as a motorcycle racetrack, where such famous motorcycle brands as DKW and NSU battled for supremacy. The early course was packed-dirt, suitable for the rather wild world of two-wheeled racing, but all of that changed in the mid-1930s when a new circuit debuted. Wider throughout and vaguely oval in shape, the track kept this form until 2001. By then, F1 officials asked for a redesigned course, and the result is shorter by 1.25 miles, removing the forest section straights in favor of more numerous tight turns. While many legendary areas of the track, like the long, flat-out curve known as the Parabolika, were left intact, the changes allow for more fans to view the improved overtaking. The resulting course is notorious for being unpredictable and relentless in its close action racing. As there is virtually no elevation change throughout the flat track, drivers must contend with five long, high-speed straights and several tight corners. Speeds of nearly 200 mph can be reached on the Parabolika before braking into the famed hairpin ("spitzkehre" in German), one of the most exciting passing spots on any circuit. A few turns later, drivers reach the modern and graceful Mercedes grandstands, which loom above a technical, sharp left-hander roughly halfway around the course—another good place for overtaking rivals. Rounding the final Elfkurve and Sudkurve turns through the immense grandstands, nearly every seat has a view of the final straight and the finish line. Architecturally this track is a masterpiece and for racing it will provide the winner with immense pride for winning on one of Germany's premier race tracks HockenheimRing in the premier racing series The Forza Sports Car Series.

I'll likely qualify in one of the last heats as usual. As long as I don't stay up too late, I intend to wake up at a decent time and try to get more practice in.
A few clutches and transmissions later, I'm still working on learning to use the clutch on here. At least, for downshifting. Tomorrow will be devoted to practicing all day.

Is anyone on that I can qualify with? I have been keeping an eye out for today and yesterday but haven't seen Pred (at least), and I'm afraid I won't be able to qualify tomorrow before the deadline as I have to be a birthday party from 10am to 2pm (don't ask... I didn't choose the time)... Anyhoo, if someone could help me out that would be sweet. Thanks!

Haha, I do appreciate the help though. Hopefully I can run a good enough race to back it up. Especially with actually making A lobby.
Looking at the time spread on that, that's crazy close here in GS, the first 11 cars within 3/4ths of a second of one another. This is going to be interesting. Gah, I hope we all end up with a clean, good race.
GT and ST look like some good things are going on too though.
