New class coming. Details in a later post. Class name Super Street

Do i smell a 500hp limit since there are so many muscle cars with that kind of stock hp (more like 450hp but who's counting) Hmmm but then again.

That sucks Roscoe. I had no clue that the NFL changed Thursday night football to Wednesday. That one would have been nice to know before now lol. But the show will go on!

PS......I think Roscoe is jealous of Dr. Piihb medicine woman and oddball.....lol. just sayin

Super Street class

Car: Buick Regal GNX
Max H.P.: 450
Minimum weight: 3,600
P.I.: A 600
Transmission: race transmission is permitted but only 4 gear setup can be used
Forza Aero required
Race roll cage required

What no ford for super street

That is just the chassis, it can be ford powered and have ford logos on it lol. I would like to see the box type body style for the super street class and ford don't have one like that in the game.

The superstocks are like the street stocks on steroids. The racing will be just as close but a good bit faster. Tomorrow's races will be amazing. I am really looking forward to getting this going.

PS Roscoep, I am beginning to think you are crushing on me. Oddball has made no advances of late, I may be available if you want me. You just gotta buy dinner first, I may be a ho but ain't no cheap ho.

So no Camaro or 87 firebird in Super Stock even though they have identical stats? eh either way still cool.

Track Schedule updated, and Super Street specs have been placed in the rules section.

Tomorrow nights race will be the first points race of the season! there will be a drivers meeting at 9:00 and hot laps will start at 9:15. Racing should then start at 9:30pm eastern time. This will be the only time where the race will start past 9:15. Please be there a little early to ensure there is no connection issues.

I know there is a few drivers that i dont have on my XBL friends list so please send a message to Dr. PiiHB or myself and we will get you in the room.

We are also still looking for a pace car driver. if you are interested in doing this please send me a PM and we will get you set up.

Not as of yet, we will be running the buick alone due to limited testing in that particular class. Plus i wanted this class to resemble the late 80's early 90's box style stock car. We ran some races in this car tonight and it was some good racing, all of the cars were within .100.

Nicee. and i understand what you are shooting for.

this seem right? Thats what a street stock is in Ct. (and yes. they are going 4-5 wide on a 3/8 mile bowl of a track.

Thats awesome, and yes thats what we are trying to get rolling. thery are going to be super competitive

Thompson CT by any chance? I've been there a few times.

I'd love to do this with you guys but just can't make it tonight, and in a month there is a series I've been doing for years starting back up again, kind of don't want to leave that. The cars are almost the same as this one too. Maybe I'll get to a few races with my 73 Firebird.

That picture came from The Waterford Speedbowl, which is my personal favorite CT track. Thompson is great as well but the track isnt doing too well. it isnt going to go under due to the different businesses associated with it but the car count is abysmal. the only class doing well there is the ministock which, while exciting, dont draw a crowd alone.
Waterford almost went under because they insisted on keeping prices so low for entry (drivers/cars/spectators). but now they are out of the hole and if you ever get a chance to go there, i will say its the most exciting track in CT. best seats in the house would be the top of the main grandstands at turn 4. its where all the action happens (and where the pic was taken from if im not mistaken)
Stafford Speedway is alright, but it is televised and strict, not to mention pricey. the racing is still great and the car count is holding up overall a great track to go to as well.

Ill be entering tonight as well.

Number 77
All divisions? depends on how long it goes for but i will make Street and Super Street for sure.

this week will the races will take about an hour to an hour and 15 min. plus time for the drivers meeting.

im on now till race time, im down for some practice

Sounds good. I'll still be a few but I will be on before race time.

ill be getting on in a few and joining your room

Points have been updated and track records for each class have been set.

Tonight's race was great, not perfect in the super street and late models but it was only the first race. Thanks to everyone that came out to the track and raced. We look forward to seeing all you guys back next week.

From this point forward, if there is 3 cautions in a row without running at least 3 laps green, restarts will be single file.

Also from this point, the leader will call the "go go go " instead of the pace car.
