    SSCA 12 Hours at Daytona

    Just wanted to let you guys know that SSCA will be broadcasting their 12 Hours at Daytona race this Saturday. kneebon5, slizzle24, and myself will all be racing in it.

    Race starts at Noon Eastern time, Saturday, March 8, so if you guys have a chance, and want to watch some Endurance racing, give it a look. There will be commentators, as well as interviews with guys that are racing in it.

    I'll be in the #56 Swedish American Corvette, so keep an eye out.

      Sorry about that, couldn't remember exactly what car you were in, so I didn't want to mention it and mess up.

          thanks, going to be very interesting. If it was me vs. Mike he would win for sure, but we will see how our teams do against each other over the 12 hour period.

            I don't know about that Nick. The two of us seemed to be pretty close in qual and the practice race. I think it'd just come down to which one of us made the fewest mistakes.

            Assuming you guys have no problems, I think you'll take us.

              once it turned to night i was screwed. i kept missing my braking points, so i had to fall back behined someone so i could tell where the corner was. And yeah once you get ASR send me an email, we will go run some. I've got some sets, of coarse i wont give you the good ones (need those for the online series), but really the defaults are fast anyways.

                I'd done some night practice so I had a pretty good idea of where I needed to be. Only had one real issue and that was in the infield. Came out of that first right hander close to another car, and he turned WAY too early for the kink, I of course turned early as well and it almost got interesting. haha

                Will do.

                I understand completely about wanting to keep the good ones. I'm the same way with my rFactor and GTR2 sets. I'm hoping we'll get the game tomorrow, as that will give me serious time to get some ASR in before I have to buckle down and practice for Saturday.

                    I'm torn between which version to watch. That second link you guys posted a smoother connection than the link in the first post, but doesn't show graphics or up-to-the-minute update of everyone's positions.

                    Anyway... last time I checked, you guys were in 18th and 19th positions with roughly 8 hours left to go in this race. Hang in there!

                      Well, my team is out of it. We had a crash on a driver swap. Ahh well, was fun while it lasted.

                          Yeah, disappointing to say the least, but oh well. Nothing we could have done any different. Good news is my teammates won the LMP class thanks to a couple other cars dropping out.


                          Congrats on your finish guys. It's a feat just to finish a 12 hour race. Nick, sorry I didn't respond, stepped away for a minute.

                          That we will Kenny. Still waiting on my copy, but as soon as it gets here I'll let Nick know, and we'll have to jump on a server somewhere. That is, as long as you guys promise not to laugh at me. :wink:

                            oh man was that hard. But we got it done, and i dont think i want to do another one for a very very long time. You should have listened to kenny the last hour. We were both dead, the 12 hour mark couldnt come fast enough.

                            But it was fun, great to run something so different than what we normally do. And our damage testing paid off, didnt fix it and were still running good. After we got up on the guy behined us by almost a lap i just took it easy so i could hand it off to Kenny.

                            When he got in it he started passing everyone running 39s with a broke car on the last hour. I dont know how many times i told him to slow down, he almost ran over an LMP.
