RASCAR league race at Lowe's Motor Speedway

David G Fisher posted results from the RASCAR league race at Lowe's in NASCAR Racing 2003. Drivers discussed incidents, lapped cars regaining laps under yellow, car file confusion and whether Sierra scoring had returned, which Larry confirmed. EldredP said he was close to quitting sim racing after running at the back, and others suggested TeamSpeak, the RRH rookie series or the GPL 65 mod.

By the time I reached the exit I got some wall glue and couldn't be avoided anymore. Sorry to Brian :) who had a very good change of winning and got robbed in the process. Apart from this I think we had a pretty good race. I certainly had some good time especially when I was able to keep up with the lead draft. Also noticed James and Liz were running very strong tonight. cheers jurjen
BTW - you were right about my carfile Dave. Somehow I set 3dpp up with the wrong car - fixed that now :) But I notice you didnt seem to have the right carfile as well? RA tells me you used 19_j_mayfield.cup.car ??

I feel sorry for Brian too. Just think, at least you didn't stop in the pits 1 lap too early :) My hats off to Ginger and the rest of the to 5 runners half-way through. We had a yellow, and they did the yellow-flag thing perfectly and a major portion of the field was able to get thier lap back cleanly and put us back in the race. Most of us got caught by that after pitting. As usual I knocked the right-front fender off about 5 times during the race on the turn-4 wall. I ALWAYS do that here :) Spent most of the race running with Jurgen. It was fun :) -Larry P.S. Where are the standings? Also, MITCH - Turn the points back on! We didn't score that race on Sierra!

One of the best runs I have had at Lowes. Thanks to the top 5 for letting us get our lap back after going down on that first long green. That put me back up front, and I was running good with the top 4 when me and Spit got together. Don't know if I came down on him or if he pushed up, just one of those racing deals. But the car was a handful after the damage and I could not get back up to speed. It was a great race by everyone and a lot of fun. bluestringer

Yes, I've used that car for a long, long time now. Previous management wanted me to use a different car, and the car file was put into circulation without my consent. I have no way of getting a custom 19 painted for me, so I just use one that's in everyone's game already. -- David G Fisher

Hey Eldred, why don't you join RRH - they've got a rookie series that runs on Monday night and there's a LOT of help for people dealing with making their own setups. Just a thought.

That's the car I didn't want to be pushed into using. Somehow it ended up in the car file collection anyway. -- David G Fisher

Does anyone score on Sierra anymore? We havent changed anything that Im aware of. What should we change back? I self spun Eldred and would have been back with ya had ya stuck around. Like you I just got bored and bailed. Charlotte was never one of my "happy" tracks anyway :) Congrats podium guys.

I seem to remember the RASCAR races counting towards rating, LPI, etc. I certainly didn't get 60+ race starts this year from pickup races... > >I self spun Eldred and would have been back with ya had ya stuck around.

I shoved the original carfiles aside as I installed the game :) I changed the (driver)name of the mayfield carfile and posted it at RSC. cheers jurjen

Eldred, I wish you gave teamspeak a try. Buy a cheap headset or just listen in with your regular speakers/headphone. It really gives an extra dimension to the races. And because most of us use it, the text chat has diminished a lot and it can feel lonely without TS. cheers jurjen

C'mon Eldred, before you think about doing anything rash at least try out the 65 Mod! Promise it'll be fun to drive, at least. Even the Honda and BRM ;) Regards, Rudy -------------------- GPLRank: -22

TS won't gain me any speed or help me be more competitive... Most of the text chat is extraneous anyway, so I tend to ignore it.

We use ventrillo in RRH, and you can get realtime help with your setups instead of using the games brain-dead chat system.

He didn't like a car I and some others were using and offered us new ones. Nothing wrong with that, but I declined. Next thing I know he's offering it to other drivers in RASCAR to use in place of mine anyway, and it ended up in the zip. Another one of those control issues. -- David G Fisher

Yes, the scoring/rankings are back. Remember, we had to turn them off when the scoring server was being moved by Sierra. -Larry "Mitch_A" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:H8uuc.76590$[email hidden]... > Does anyone score on Sierra anymore?
