Hi Ry,
Just seen a reply from ChurchPro. Just send him a FR and that'll get you in on Weds. He's on my friends list if that makes it easier to do.

Wayne, did a couple of races with them last night, just random A,B,C,D class racing, and did ok, enjoyed racing cars again!

They are a good bunch aren't they!

Did you do the OLD car thingy? I ummed and ahhed about it but ended up ahhing or is that umming and didnt go online after all! Will be there tomorrow though (and also on Friday if shorter events).

erm no, didn't see anything about that.. still trying find my way around their site..

What about 2 around Nordschliefe and 5 or 6 around Le Mans?

Wayne Thomas · Sep 11, 2012

Someone was running events pre- XXXX or something.

Know what you mean about the site, lots going on and not all to do with racing.

For tomorrow I have built a collection of Toyotas from F class all the way to R1. Haven't tested all of them so it's gonna be interesting! Might do this every week ...... Next week BMW.

Bought most of the tunes from SF and some paints as well .... Going to look the part at least!

That could be a plan..

Steve Smith · Sep 11, 2012

I agree that something that needs to be decided. We've got too options on the table so a choice needs to be made soon as to what is it happening Friday as I prefer getting some practice in first rather than just turning up to a race and driving blind.

Wayne Thomas · Sep 11, 2012

Andrew??????????? lol

Wayne Thomas · Sep 11, 2012

It took some time as some cars cannot get to a certain class. Struggled with R3 as a lot of tunes on SF are for Drift ........ the one I got might be so it could be an interesting race if it is!

Noticed you are looking at their Thurs night events. I was too but with the 2O4F Casual Weds, RD Club Friday and any other RD events that get off the ground it may be too much again. I've built the Clio though as sometimes they throw event cars into club events, there's also a Radical R1 tune that I downloaded from ChurchPro but I find it very twitchy with a controller - always fancied a Radical series

Yeah so far, I've said I will do that Clio Race, the fun Wednesdays and then said I'd join in a Cayman series which they run on a Saturday night, which is perfect for me as now the NFL season has started Sundays are a little problem for me now.

but yes with the RDDC Fridays it's 4 days of Forza but that's not a problem, if it picks up again here then i will simply stop one of them as they are very casual things that i've entered anyway.

got some work to do tonight:

1)make sure I have a half decent car for each race tomorrow night.
2)Make a Clio and paint it.
3)Paint a Cayman and then use the tune Jcotter is hopefully sending me.
4)Still need to post my photos of the racing we had last Friday as the second race in particular was very close for quite a long time!

never really driven the radical cars to be honest, so don't know if im missing out on anything lol

Ryan Sylvester · Sep 11, 2012

I say go with Wayne's idea on racing the 2, as it's a 2 way split on track regardless..

pretty sure Andrew would agree anyway, wherever he is.. lol

Wayne Thomas · Sep 11, 2012

We used the radical in early days of fm4 in some club night events. The Cayman event looks cool but not suitable timewise for me. If you get the cayman tune can you gift it on to me and I will get one sorted for practice with you sometime. Think I've set up a Clio already.

Thinking about cars, FM4 needs Caterham!
