Yeeeaaaah I figure that's okay for you, considering all the names I've wrote
on you since all those years 8)

the race server will use the invite list. I don't know if that changes your
mind on running, since you might not know who's on the list...<g>

Gunnar, how would you suggest we do that, since there currently aren't 2
different series?

Eldred,

Don't know if I am on the invite list or not as I have not run in many
races, but I do hope to start running with you guys soon, so if you can see
fit to add me I would greatly appreciate it.

Thanks,

Don Burnette

first of all, I didnt suggest you do that. :) but there could be two
different series, if you wanted it. anyhow; I'm under the impression
that RASCAR is mostly a group thing and not a racing thing. if that's
the case there wouldnt be much point, IMHO.

even makes me want to join. I'm sure there are some backmarkers I can
fight with. knowing myself, I'll probably get N2K2 two weeks before
N2K3 is out, though. :)

If you're in the roster, and if your Sierra ID is correct (according to
the roster), you'll be able to join.

If the RASCAR races are going to be invite only and require car files to be
submitted why not take it offline from here and run it like other leagues.
The RASCAR discussion seems to be the dominate one here now. Hard to read
through all the noise to find other happenings. Those of us involved in
other leagues don't use this as our forum.
Not trying to be an ass on this, but if it's not an open race for people
that post here then it should be run like any other league or group IMHO.

Well, since it is RASCAR, and since it was born here, there's no reason
for it not to be discussed here.

The races aren't "invite only" - you merely have to be registered and
included in the invite list in order to race with us. This is being
done to a) get everyone to use a single sierra ID when they race with
us, and b) head off a potential future problem with wreckers and ex-
RASCAR malcontents from getting into and ruining the races through
moronic and purile driving.
