Re: NASCAR RRS Pre-Season | Saturday July 7 | Suzuka East
What's going to be really difficult about this is that at every right hand corner, we're going to have to make the car spin to the left and come out facing in to the corner. NASCAR steering wheels only have 45 degrees of lock, and all of them are to the left. This is a widely believed fact! ![Wink](https://2img.net/i/fa/i/smiles/icon_wink.gif)
More E-Brake than any other Driversports.org event, evah!

Re: NASCAR RRS Pre-Season | Saturday July 7 | Suzuka East
3 car race, but that's ok because big cup cars on small track was lots of fun just to wrastle. Q'd robiker, Rooster, Forgetful. biker tried to run away while it took me a few laps to reel in roo. By that time we were getting closer to biker.
roo pitted on 13/14 and robiker I pitted on 14/15 and I was able to come out in front of roo. The three stopper was on for all three cars...
On lap 24 or 25 I got disco'd, and as host it dropped the room. So, we regrouped for a 30 lapper (lol caution, fresh tires and fuel). We lined up in the order we were running and started out again. The same story, biker opened an early lead, but I started to reel him in a little quicker this time... until just before the pit stop when he ran wide in the last corner. I stole the lead, pitted the next lap and then was off to try and nurse my 7 second lead over roo. But it wasn't mean to be as on lap 21 I ran wide on the last corner too, damaging the left front. I got back on track in time for roo to pass me and I thought I could hang with him, get used to the light damage and maybe even get the lead back, but on lap 24 I spun inwards coming on to the straight an wrecked'er good. I crawled backwards to pit in and paused in the pits to take a DNF. Roo reeled off the win and robiker 2nd. Fun. Would have been better with more cars.
