A very good idea, I’m on iracing, look me up and send a friend request.

I’m running Renault formula 2.0 at Nürburgring this week and plan to run Pro Mazda at Spa next week. For me it is important to plan the car and track in advance as there is quite a learning curve.

Re: Alex Berg in Shifters

I would be in favour. A consideration is the safety angle, the speeds are high and the weight as well (425lbs at 127 kph), therefore the potential consequence of an accident is different from JR2. I believe that driving shifter calls for a more cautious approach. My question is whether or not we sho...

Re: 2019 class discussions and roll call

In a recent email, Joey proposed to put the class regulation weight according to the engine spec on a nasseau panel sticker. That should get rid of the confusion at the scales. I think it is important to minimize subjectivity and ambiguity.

Re: Race Sim - seats?

I have the same thing as Steve, very happy with it. For consoles I can recommend Assetto Corsa, it is more of a simulator, similar to iRacing.

Re: proposed 2018 weight rules

I’m 435+ on the scales. Short of a carbon fibre hip replacement, not much I can do to get lighter. Having a higher weight limit is not going to make a difference to my race but if it is too low it might discourage the heavier guys from participating.
