[li]Explanation of the "Race Your Way In" event[/li]
[/ul]

In an effort to keep incidents on the track to a minimum, we run a series of 2-3 races where drivers accumulate points like in our regular season. This allows us to see how people drive as well as letting us bring the strongest runners from the event. If, for example, we need to fill 10 seats, we would do this with the top 10 in points from that event. 
[ul]
[li]Recruitment[/li]
[/ul]
In the past this event has been the only way to get into the series period. In an effort to slightly ease off on this and to further encourage friendship and competition in this series and the community, we will now allow drivers to be invited in by current seat holders. To be able to do this you will need a vacant spot on your team. Have the driver sign up as normal and declare them to be on your race team in the team selection topic. Once you do this we will move their name into a full time seat. 

[ul]
[li]Draft[/li]
[/ul]
A new addition coming to this event this season is a draft system for teams who need additional drivers. All teams wishing to participate will select a team captain who will attend the event to watch how it plays out. If your team does not wish to participate, remember that the team minimal is 3 and if you do not meet this we will assign you a random driver before the season starts to meet this total. We will have more information coming soon on how the draft picks will work.


If you have additional questions or concerns, seeks out Myself, Eddie Hawks or Chris Perez on Teamspeak and we will happily assist you however we can.

The 2 hour practice session for Round 1 at Texas will be opening in moments. Remember you must be in TS for this and all future races.

 

[BrandonMassey]

Killer race last night guys, proud of you all. There was a lot of good racing all over the track and only 2 cautions. I'll get some points standings together so everyone can see where we currently stand within a few hours. The only drivers who I will actually score will be drivers who are supposed to be in the event.

Remember we have more drivers currently racing for a seat than we have seats available. This means if you did not attend last nights event, you have some ground to make up with only 1 race left.

 

[bige3dalejr88]

Good luck tomorrow in the last race guys. I'm not going to be there, but have fun. Look forward to meeting all the new guys.

 

[BrandonMassey]

Sorry for the points delay. With my dad in the hospital and having to help the family, I have been tied down. I will have the points for you to look at before the final round tonight.

 

[Rory Collins]

Sorry to hear about your dad Brandon. Hope he is alright or gets better soon.
Although this racing stuff is fun it's still just a game we play and unimportant in the scope of things. No apologize needed for us.

 

[Rob Thomas]

unfortunately i will be removing my entry into the Sunday league race your way in event and focusing on the weds truck series. Im not prepared to race tonight due to family issues and id rather step away than jeopardize any of the other drivers chances at making the field. I would however like to keep my name in the hat for any possible replacement or fill in roles that may pop up in the future for the Sunday league. I appreciate you giving me the chance but life came into play and put things on the back burner for a few days. I am fully committed and ready to start the trucks when its time to go racing. thanks again and good luck to everyone
p.s. i hope your father makes a speedy recovery 

 

[BrandonMassey]

Thanks Rob.

I added the points to the main post in here, it's a little cut off so you will have to scroll it. I just used our last seasons point sheet so ignore all the other blank rounds, 1 and 2 are the only ones you will do. Drivers who did not have to race for a seat were taken out of the results. The finishing, qualifying and bonus points have been awarded as if you were the only drivers in the session.

 

[BrandonMassey]

I removed the points sheet from the main post in the forum and this is why.

We had 9 drivers who had to race for a seat show up out of the 15 who signed up to try and race in. After consulting with teams, we only need 7 drivers. After consideration of connection issues as well as other issues, he is the drivers who made it in.

I will be contacting each driver on iRacing tomorrow to let you know that you made it and what else you need to do. For the ones of you who do check our forums, You MUST go to the team selection topic and either from a team or join an existing team. This series is about fun, competition and friendship.

In the spirit of this, we currently manadate all drivers who race with us, join a team. If you have not joined a team by the 6th, 3 days after the opening race, I WILL randomly assign you to a team.


Welcome to the Sunday Series guys. We look forward to seeing you on the track on the 3rd!

 

[BrandonMassey]

For the drivers who were invited in and only had to attend 1 event to make it in, you all exceeded your obligations. I appreciate all of you showing up to both events and putting on some killer racing. Will add your names below so there is no confusion on if you have a seat or not. Also I am pretty sure I told you guys on Sunday that you made it.
