 After some discussions with a few drivers after the Bristol race, there are a couple of things that are being repeated by numerous drivers.

1. Some drivers take league racing to serious
2. I'm not really having fun anymore

 I to see this, and feel the same at times. Maybe we should look at a different alternative to the typical league format, points racing. After much thought on this, screw the points let's have fun. The format I would like everyone to think about, we run the weekly Nascar schedule as they do. But we don't race for points, just bragging rights. We can still keep driver stats etc, so we can see who has done what. There will be some races picked out to which prizes will be given out, those will not be announced until the pace lap to take the green flag to keep it interesting.

 Rules will be pretty basic:
1. Race Hard but Race Clean
2. If you cause a wreck your done for the night
3. 100 laps at every track (except road courses 50 laps)
4. 2x fuel at all tracks
5. 2 cautions and your done for the night (spins)
6. All drivers must be on Team Speak to Race
7. Lap cars pit if mixed with lead lap cars if a caution comes out with 10 laps or less to go.
8. Bump and Run at your own risk
9. Anyone thought to be cheating will be banned no questions asked.
10.Rough Driving will not be tolerated (see rule #1)


 All input is welcomed, let me know what you think.

Well heres my input:

The league is ran fine, the problem is some drivers dont take it serious enough and such dont give 2 shits about the guys they are racing with. I simply input this upcoming season is Invitation Only and the people that get them can decide if they want to run here.

I personally see those changes making this into a shootout race type and that isnt what I signed up for, I want good clean racing shit does happen but I watched the replay a few times from the Bristol race and there are some BS cautions and some real Chicken shit Driving.

I had a bad night myself at Bristol but I also parked my car when I knew I was going to be a problem. You guys, this is a game and meant for fun, all you need to do is own your actions some do and some dont. Oh and keep the BS out.

Just wanted to add it takes 2 seconds to wreck someone for a pass and it takes laps to plan a pass on someone that can actually drive. If you come to the conclusion that the only way to pass the guy is by wrecking them, guess what they got you beat deal with it and take your finishing spot, this aint a bumper car derby and neither is nascar that I can remember.

Agreed

[LasVegasSinner]

I agree with all of that considering I got ran into a couple times at Bristol on fucking restarts by guys that were laps down and Im racing for position oh well I held on with out wrecking the car completely but some bullshit cautions came out and chicken shit driving was present I will gladly watch the whole fucking race again and bring some of the drivers names to light if thats what it takes for some of these guys get the big picture.. Im sorry I am not perfect but you come up fast on me Im gonna let you go and thats what I do !!! But when I come up on some of these guys they block me so hard a wreck would definitely take place If I attempted a pass which not only slows me down to there level but keeps me from coming anywhere close to catching up to the pack which is bs cause I dont always have a fast car but usually steady and consistent .It seems like alot of these guys build there cars for a ten to twenty lap race because it also seems like theres some kind of caution coming out at the last ten or twenty laps of the race how fucking convenient for them...This is supposed to be fun and most of these guys are good drivers theres also to many what ifs... And i am loosing interest because of the guys that are willing to do anything for the win or position's.Hey Its just a game so have fun but race as clean as you can!!  My opinion only but it stands tall...

Well after reading the posts above, i would have to say that nearly every driver takes it serious, i think the biggest problem is only half the drivers seem to spend the time during the week to practise for the up comming race, maybe look at that, no track time equals no race, also it seems a fair bit of the finger pointing is being targeted at the  =TTR= crew when i believe myself that nearly every driver could be accused of blocking in past races COT and 88's EXCEPT FOR A FEW DRIVERS,Bristol was spoken mainly in the above posts i led over 90 laps and ended in a wreck, Bristol is a tough track for any driver good or bad, you are going to get wrecks and plenty of them, most guys were having troubles if they went high and didnt want to move up in case of spinning out, just my thoughts on that race.You guys have a fantastic bunch of online drivers here that are very competitive but you must remember a few of our guys a still new to this and struggling from comming from NR2003, so in closing i will say its been a blast running with you guys but finger pointing is not the solution, say it straight out, so i will be covering the 98 ford thunderbird and putting her in the shed,
Peace out and be Safe

Well thats obviously your decision to make Doon but I dont see any one driver pointed at in any of the posts nor TTR. I will hate to see you go if thats your choice. As far as the blocking goes I have to disagree with the part about nearly every driver. Dont quote me but I beleive the blocking vegas is referring to is by lap traffic, which lap traffic shouldnt be blocking and I would think even you get that Doon

[BumperHumper]

Hi guys well im with Doon on this
im parking the old 05 as well after the last few races
Ive witnest in my opinion bias decision from RTTC race review crew,
and a bit of dirty driving from a coulple of damn good drivers.
We at TTR did not come over to race here at RTTC to stir shit up
and or cause trouble. I feel the decision made after last weeks race
is redickulas one driver wasnt penalized enough and the other driver
shouldnt have been penalized at all so with that said i have no ill
feeling towards any body here at RTTC your all a bunch of great guys
and ive had alot of fun racing with you all. Good luck and peace out.

Take care

The biased RTTC race review crew, just happened to have a member of TTR in it that decided some of the penalties that were handed out. One of the penalties handed out, was actually decided by you Bumper, I guess that was biased as well seeing as how it was one of TTR's drivers that got it at your request. You guys take care, as we will carry on.
