Season 6 race 4 Road America 45 Laps 11/27 5PM PST

Sunday November 27th 5pm PST - Elkhart Lake, Wisconsin, USA

One of the premier Road Courses in America. There may not be a track in North America that stirs the senses like Road America. With it’s 4.08-mile, 14-turn circuit, this track demands complete focus as the cars wind their way through Wisconsin's Kettle Moraine at record speeds. With the points race beginning to take shape as drivers and teams begin eying the championship it is surely set to be a hotly contested race. Batten down the hatches and prepare for an exciting race.

PIT WINDOW BETWEEN LAPS 5 - 30.

Qualifying can begin now. Contact a series official or room host to qualify.

I'll be withdrawing from the series. I just don't have the time or motivation to do endurance races in Forza. Thank you guys for letting me race and practice with you (the few times that I have), it was a lot of fun. I wish you the best of luck with your series.

Well this sucks. My internet has been down since Thursday. Im praying it comes up by Sunday night but doesn't look promising. I really enjoy this track so going to be bummed if I miss it.

Looks like you gave me a pi hit after i qualified so im going to keep 745 for the race and go down to 744/whatever u give me next race

That 2 pt adjustment was made on Tuesday, I just didn't finish all adjustments until late Wednesday.  Didn't load them on Thanksgiving day for obvious reasons.  Put them up actually late Thanksgiving night when everyone was full of food and sleep.  The PI that is presented is the PI racers are required to be at for the next sanctioned event, which for us is the race at Road America.

It doesnt really matter when you made the adjustment. You didnt put the changes up until after i qualified and i will not take any reductions after i qualify

Then you'll probably be docked points after the race. It's 2PI man, not a big deal.

Since when has a pi change after qualifying ever been done. Also 2 pi on the gallardo makes a big difference

You have too much PI to be complaining about anything. Unless you'd like to run at 722 for the rest of the season.

I understand you may not like it. You would't have liked it at any time. However, it has happened before a couple of times. However, to take a hard stance is not the right stance. It is a holiday week so the adjustments went up 1 day late. I have a life too my friend so Family was first and I got them up as soon as I could. Just an FYI adjustments do happen between qual and race all the time in racing. I just try to limit it if at all possible. 744 is your race trim on your #24 Lamborghini Gallardo 570-4 Superleggera.

Thank you.

Of course i wouldnt of liked a hit anytime but that happens. Im mad that you did so after i qualified. You said you did the changes on tues into late weds. I qualified weds so you either knew u had changed my pi and decided not to tell me or u took some pi off because i did well. And when have u changed pi after qualifiying before. It used to be we raced immeadiatly after qualifying. Ill race tonight at 744 but for now on you need to have the final pi adjustments up before anyone is allowed to qualify

I usually have all adjustments up by Wednesday and open qualifying for Thursday. I will PM you.

Qualifying Results

The Qualifying Results for Road America are up. I gotta say it was a super close and super competitive qualifying session as we come to expect from the Forza Sports Car Series. There were some surprises up front and others who were expected to be a little further back but when the difference is .300 for the top 5 and less than .490 for the next 11 or the top 6 thru 16th it could have gone 60 different ways. Then further down the field we have only .980 separating 17th through 26th! It can be safely said that this is going to be a race not of car lengths and seconds but of inches and thousandths! Racers THIS is the Forza Sports Car Series!

Rooms Posted in 40 minutes.

yep, just show up on time and get into the room. The host and rooms will be posted in about 30 minutes.

Was busy all afternoon and didn't get a chance to qualify. I'll be racing tonight though, if there is enough room in the last group.

I sent you my tune I'm running. I'm in love with it, it's just it was in FM3. You might have to lengthen the Finale Drive 2 - 4 clicks though, but Dustin said it was good as was and he's only 1PI less then you are. That is, if you keep the stock cams on it.

Please be in your room by 4:40 PST if at all possible. We will do a 1 lap run to get racers in grid order at 5:00pm PST . Then a normal outlap to begin the race. Be on time or be left out.

Mandatory Pit window lap 5 - 30.

Well that freacking sucked...got lagged into...AGAIN...this is the second time this has happened to me out of 4 races (both times like my car hit a brick wall going over 100 and get 100% damage)...looks like I won't be anywhere near podium in this series.

I'm officially quitting. I can't keep racing around guys with more PI than God who have no idea how to consistently take a corner or let off the gas when the car in front is taking a line away. I'm going to block, its apart of racing, its apart of any motorsport. When you have 50+ more HP and no idea how to take a corner, you block me in every apex, but I don't ram into you. This time I slowly slid over and showed my intentions very early, but, still got wrecked. I guess I am just too aggressive, and I don't want to ruin anybody else's race anymore.

This was simply the last straw. I enjoyed my time spent racing with all of you, and I wish you all the best of luck.

WOW!!!!!!!! Is all I can say people need to learn there lines. Admin needs to hand out some point deductions this week in loby C.

Room B must have had some bad laggers. I was coming through the Carousel behind Science and I think jpnvr4. Whoever was right in front of me disappeared completely, and then at some point before the kink, i got nailed with 100% damage, and Science got flipped.

It's pretty frustrating when I drive as clean as possible, even yielding positions to avoid a crash, only to have people run into me as they blow corners or miss their lines completely. It's even worse when they are able to keep doing it because they have such high PI.

That was probably me...when I got lagged into my car did a front flip 100% damaged out in the carousel and wound up into the sand...couldn't move after that

Internet went back down on lap 44. Pretty sure cannibal fishes mic of epic loudness set my internet into circle of doom again.

Was decent race considering I was rear ended twice. People, if you are right behind someone brake way early. You aren't going to win by being 5 feet away in a corner. No hard feelings about that though.

Good fight with themannow777 the last 25 laps or so. Sad I wasn't able to take that victory because of my stupid internet provider doing god knows what this weekend.
