More fun on Hawaii

This is from late Sunday night/early Monday morning A few of us IGNners hook up with some other racers and run a pleasant drive at Michigan. After that we took to more races at Martinsville, then N.Wilkesboro, then Richmond,then Dover. We nominated a new race after Dover, this time for Loudon. We're having a ball at these tracks that I for one have spent little or no time on before. We're waiting for people to finish up a race at Talladega and perhaps they would join us at Loudon. The race at Talley finished up, people start leaving, and apparently someone from that race nominated another one for that group. At Talladega. How many times can ya run that one track? I think (this is all in good clean fun of course) that there are people out there who are afraid to go to a track where they might have to apply brakes. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Winston Cup 7 41 23 Busch South 9 34 47 NCTS 7 07 Busch North 47 44 34 Mod Tour 21 8 10A IRCA 93 39 96 Busch North & Modified Tour Home Pages at http://www.vgernet.net/aclaffie/ Your Attitude Will Be MODIFIED!

Name the place Claf!! BS'ed with ya on AUTORACE and now I'll run with ya anywhere!! Let's rock this joint! Later markmc

Well you know, the new racers figure that Tally is going to be the easiest track to run... Actually I find that the short tracks are better. The people who join you on the short tracks tend to be a little more cautious, because that's what a short track requires. As a matter of fact I think I raced you at Martinsville last night. Of course that was a mess at the beginning, but once we got spread out and got in a groove, there weren't any problems. Talladega is just too unreal for me. I don't like the line that the people run on that track. Besides when you wreck on a short track, you're still in the race, At tally chances are if you wreck you're done for the day....

This may be the case, but I'm willing to put up with a little driver error caused by someone still getting acclimated to the shorter tracks, assuming it's not intentional of course. The good part of this is that on the short tracks, you have to try pretty hard to get in a 'fatal' accident, while at Dega, you hardly have to do anything at all. The real hot setup would be for many Hawaii drivers, if they aren't doing so already, to sign up for a league, either a typical Internet league like IGN or Simcar, or a league on Hawaii. Having exposure to a lot of different tracks can't help but make a person a better racer. I don't think I'd ever try Phoenix or Wilkesboro if they weren't on my series schedules. However, the dimwits that always cause wrecks and get impatient and decide if they can't win they might as well wreck everyone else can just as well stay at Dega and I won't have a problem with that. Of course, those people probably don't read rec.autos.sims so they'll never see this. Ah, well. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Winston Cup 7 41 23 Busch South 9 34 47 NCTS 7 07 Busch North 47 44 34 Mod Tour 21 8 10A IRCA 93 39 96 Busch North & Modified Tour Home Pages at http://www.vgernet.net/aclaffie/ Real Racers Don't Race Talladega!
