* During a Caution all chatter should be to a minimum, this will help get the cars in line for the restart
* You can call a caution if someone causes you to lose position during the race through physical interaction
* If you cause your own departure from the track, or accident or whatever, you cannot call a Caution.
* Once you call a caution, everyone will slow down to 30mph. Do not come to a complete STOP
* Racers go back inline. Restarts are single file.
* Room Host will call out a countdown, 3*2*1 GO, once all racers are grouped up (within a car length of each other) and up to caution speed (30mph).
* No passing on restarts until the end of following corner after the re-start of the caution or when the series coordinator calls “YOU CAN PASS”
* No cautions on the last 3 laps.

Interesting.indecision

My future in this series is going to depend on my internet connection in Toronto.  I should have a high speed connection, but I don't believe that I'll have any control over the router, so my NAT settings might be screwed up.  Hopefully everything will go smoothly and I won't have any problems

Hey Kochino,

Could you gift me the setup for this pig... er... truck?  I need to fiddle with the brakes.

Next time I'm in practice with you guys, I'd like to get a lesson on restarting as the leader.  I got all rattled last night and messed it up.  Sorry if anyone got caught in the ripple.  I should know better.

This is important because I plan on leading a lot of races. cool

I think the braking difficulty is related to that 6200 lbs number.  I just want to increase the pressure so I don't have to push the pedal so hard.  I doubt that it will slow up any better, but I'm happy to share.  Might help others with load-cell braking.
