Sunday, April 1 - 9amEST. Since people still have frame rate problems with Road Atlanta, we'll run Monza. Another reminder: The US changes from Daylight Savings time at 2am on the 1st. We set the clocks from 2 to 3. So the race will be an hour earlier for the Euros. This race may be the last 'open' GP race I host. It depends on the smart driver/idiot ratio... Eldred p.s. The next race will be at Mexico - I've already decided...<g> -- Dale Earnhardt, Sr. R.I.P. 1951-2001 Homepage - http://www.umich.edu/~epickett F1 hcp. +28.67...F2 +151.26...

Okay, we just changed this weekend, so it will be the usual 6 hr diff. That would make it 1500 hours CET. Mexico? Mexico!!! /Jens (I hope my pit crew is ready for the race). EldredP wrote:

No it won't... we're already on summertime. Time gap between EST+DST and CET+DST will therefore be the usual 6 hours. I say again: 6 hours. Making the race time 15hr00 CEST (Central European Summer Time). That time again: 15hr00 CEST. Jan. ;-) =--- EldredP wrote... > <snip> The US changes from Daylight Savings time at 2am on > the 1st.

Jan, are you sure it's such a good idea for us to remind people to show up? Just wondering... /Jens Jan Verschueren wrote:

Possibly... then again: would be zero fun if nobody showed. Jan. =--- Jens H. Kruuse wrote... > Jan, are you sure it's such a good idea for us to remind > people to show up? Just wondering... > > /Jens >

LOL I'm not very good at Mexico, but it could probably produce good racing. Maybe we can fight it out for last place<g>. You'll have more than two hours to practice, though. :-) Eldred -- Dale Earnhardt, Sr. R.I.P. 1951-2001 Homepage - http://www.umich.edu/~epickett F1 hcp. +28.67...F2 +151.26...
