I would vote for a Mon-Thursday nite....its very difficult for many of us to race weekends and keep other family obligations... And of course to go to other NASCAR venues. ;) -- ::::::::#########::::::::::David Burton aka Vetteracer :########################::http://www.rust.net/~daland ########################:::"You have to first finish, :::::::#########:::::::::::before finishing first" <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<

I agree with David. Monday thru Thursday would be better.
This is one of the main reasons I have a hard time joining the pre-formed leagues for the NRO/ online racing thru TEN. Most are allready filled for the sunday night leagues, leaving me with the Friday/ Saturday leagues to join. As a buissiness owner who does travel during the week and has a family I need to spend time with on weekends, the best days/ nights for me are sundays. I did read your first post Jimmy, describing your problem with saturdays, and fully agree, SATURDAYS has to be THE worst day for the Championship race for NRO. I also read the responce from Jim Sokoloff and must say, I dont think that there was much thought put into the days picked for the championship if what was published in Interaction is correct. Hell even NASCAR can see that Sunday races gets a larger crowd. :) First off, the NRO will not begin ( from what has been posted here and per the TEN homepage) until June. This puts the Championship race in the later half of summer when most have plenty of things to do ( even more to do if you live in the cold, snowy midwest) on weekends not to mention the fact that Saturdays are HEART OF THE WEEKEND! I am not looking for any sympothy here but, 75% of my Saturdays are allready spoken for thru out the summer months. ( Little Leauge , Softball, family planned day trips, reunions ETC.......) If I do join a league and get to be one of the lucky drivers who makes it to the Championship rounds, I will have to miss out. Sure I can try and re-plan a few days here and there, but how do you tell your kids we cant go to the zoo (or what ever it may be) just because Dad has to play a game on the computer tonight. Granted this senerio can happen any night of the week, however I believe it is much less likely to happen on a sunday evening when the majority of people are home getting ready to do the work week all over again. If I know I will miss out on the Championship just because I can not set aside Saturdays , then why spend the money and time in the NRO? Hopefully we get more people who feel the same as far as Saturday nights being PRE SET for the Championship. After all the NRO only will exist because of us NASCAR 2 ***s, so I would hope are input is important to Sierra hence the reason for this post. Again if you feel the need to spam me for this responce, fine, but I am simply giving my own thoughts to the whole NRO concept NOW, before it becomes a reality, at which time it will be much more difficult to change something once it has been put into place. P.S. Spell check must have crashed in turn 4, so pardon the mistakes. Mike Schmidt "Atech on Kali"

> How many of you would rather race an NRO Championship race on Sunday > evenings vice Saturdays???? Please post and reply here!!! I think Sunday nights would be great for me. But the best would be that the league should have 2races in a weekend for people who cannot race one day or another. I would be fair for anyone who does something else. But sunday nights would be relaxing before school and/or work. But before I can even think about Championship race in NRO... ...Got to work on better than 194.607 at Tally :) Thanks a lot, Good race at the Brickyard, (Old'Indytrack guy in rec.autos.simulators) ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ =ymenard now!!!
