If anyone could make a promo video for this I'd greatly appreciated it!

I am you queer! I got a 3 day weekend coming up this weekend so I'll get it done.

Thank you!

Track link added!

Hey guys, tonight after sign-ups have been a few mins, I would like to do some testing. I copied most of track ini from the OLR500 track which was great for CTS physics to the new track. I just want to make sure the track is amazing for the race.

Iight guys, just one more week until the big race. Going to need to some car files uploaded here soon. If everyone can get their files up by Saturday, I will make a big car pack for the race.

So is anyone going to race this? B/C we are 2 days away from the race, and we haven't tested, don't have any car files, and it feels like there is just no hype for it all. I would love to run the race and have 15 to 20 people, but if no one wants race, then we will just cancel it....

So I'm guessing no race...

I don't care either way. Limited interest is likely due to it being Sunday though.

This. I watch football (and NASCAR usually) on Sunday.

Well the race was tonight, and that's why I thought it was a good idea for tomorrow since there was no racing. But its just whatever. We will just cancel it for now. Maybe we can run it on a week night sometime this December...

Probably would be a good idea to run it early on in the week during Christmas break.

Yeah sounds like a plan to me.

That will give me time to get my new pc in and get a promotional video out.

For some reason... I thought it was Sunday, just thinking about when we did the SS league on Sunday nights (if I remember correctly)

you guys are pathetic, Lambert is putting this race on for a good cause and nobody gives two shits about it. So what if its on sunday, we use to race every sunday and get 20 car feilds. you cant tell me that your lives are so busy and so commited to watching football you cant take two hours out of your life for this race.

I usually try to have a life on the weekends, and when that's not going well I end up employeed in doing something for my parents.

Next time I'll remember to check with you and make sure it's ok though.

Iight, not to be a dick, but can you just stop Ian? The race is memory of my dad that past away almost 6 years ago. It's not about you or any other racer here, including myself. So don't take shit personal and quit with smart-ass and sarcastic attitude.

And thanks Jake, I appreciate it. But I had a feeling b/c it was on a Sunday, not a whole lot of people were going to race.

I understand the race has a significance to yourself, and that's fine. But you can't expect people to commit to something on the weekend, especially for people who are in school most of the week which is a chunk of us here.

I usually find weekdays more busy for people that actually care about school, than sundays, usually people are home on sundays. its funny how people say they like to have a life on weekends but then there ends up being 20 people on teamspeak on a saturday night.

Jake, nobody has cared about racing on Sunday's from what I recall for at least a year now, wasn't that part of the reason why the SS series shut down in the first place? People are around on Sunday's, but nobody really wants to race on Sunday's including myself, not to be selfish and rude, but Sunday is usually the day for me to be glued to the TV and watch football and NASCAR all day and sleep. I think there would be more interest if it was on a weekday like Wednesday or something, or before or maybe during the holidays when people are around, but there's no Solstice Leagues going on.
