Pre-race interviews are up!!!

I've done the practice race, and got a few laps in here and there. 

2)Watkins Glen is a very popular track, and it hosts a few different layouts. Is the Classic one that you like, or is there another layout you prefer and why?

I like the Glen, and enjoy all the layouts

I'm voting for A, Paul will sneak into his wife's purse and retrieve his manhood again  :lol:

1) Welcome to the Cadillac Global Challenge series! Have you had much time to practice the Caddy, or are ya shooting from the hip and sending it on race night?

Waiting on a new motherboard to show up. Not sure how much time I'll have to practice.
Much will depend on Tuesday's having 1 or 2 divisions.

2)Watkins Glen is a very popular track, and it hosts a few different layouts. Is the Classic one that you like, or is there another layout you prefer and why?
Prefer Boot. Classic is too short.

3)Which of these has the chance to happen first on Monday night? Please feel free to comment on a,b, & c :lol:

b-Kenny finishes a race? Well, there is 1 fast repair

 

[Kenny Duval]

I wouldn't hold my breathe. I failed to finish last night even with a fast repair.

I'm gonna try to be like Paul with his new motto "I will pass you on the grass, so I can shove this car up your ass"

I like the one with corners. This one is like a drunk NASCAR track...

A. Very low. Who knows where she will hide his balls next week.
B. Unknown. Round 1 of a new series is always a crapshoot, even for Kenny. If he leaves his dickhead magnet in the pits, he just might finish lap 1.
C. Hath Hell frozen over? I doubt it, as I sense the temperature approaching 'chaud'...

1) Welcome to the Cadillac Global Challenge series! Have you had much time to practice the Caddy, or are ya shooting from the hip and sending it on race night?

Due to my schedule, all of my practice will most likely come during the race day practice session.


2)Watkins Glen is a very popular track, and it hosts a few different layouts. Is the Classic one that you like, or is there another layout you prefer and why?

I neither like or hate the Glenn, even though I've always had decent results here.

Kenny will finish a race first. No way Paul can locate his dude berries this season and Jefferson doesn't understand the meaning of sober driving.

Prob will do a mix between. At the moment I haven’t really done much driving of this car other than one fun session at mid o years ago, that Bathurst fun run we did one night and the race Monday.

[font=Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif]I like the normal boot layout they run currently the most.[/font]

[font=Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif]B for sure. A will never happen as long as he has young children and is under whip and chain, c will never happen cuz gp has now officially replaced all his blood with vodka. Prob would have a better chance at mark drinking a Mans drink for once.[/font]

Pre-race interviews

1) Welcome to the Cadillac Global Challenge series! Have you had much time to practice the Caddy, or are ya shooting from the hip and sending it on race night?

I've been driving it a bit here and there, but for the most part I plan on just showing up and seeing how it goes.

2)Watkins Glen is a very popular track, and it hosts a few different layouts. Is the Classic one that you like, or is there another layout you prefer and why?

I like this layout in this car, but the layout we ran in the F3 is probably my favorite.  The bus stop is ok and all, but taking that right hander is way more fun without it.

3)Which of these has the chance to happen first on Monday night? Please feel free to comment on a,b, & c  :lol:

Paul has one silent race and you already forget how absurdly loud his mic can be?  Loud Panda is best Panda.

Missing First Two races in the Caddys, Real Championships in Mid-Ohio. Duty Calls!

 

[ntketchum1386]

1. Practice is starting today!

2.I prefer the boot just because it adds a bit more character and challenge

3. Im new so I have no opinion lol

 

[bonaduce]

1) Practice? Practice? Who you kidding, I practice all day at work https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DjDPJZhd27k&t=18s

2) Give me the classic, classic coke, classic cars, "classy" women. Anything with classic in front of it has to be better.

3) New season, new car, but anything is possible. Vegas odds are 3:2 that none of these predictions will happen.

Hey gang,

    As we are on the eve of the first race in the Caddy series starting tomorrow night, i just want to give some input as to the what we expect from everyone here in this league.

Respect! This is going to be a huge factor with a large field of 40 drivers we have signed up! If you think someone is aside of you, they probably are, so just assume thats the case. We don't want the dive bombers dropping bombs out there, work on your move and try to complete it as safe as possible. If you accidentally get into someone, say your sorry, give them the spot back if they are mobile yet. 

Chatter! Guys keep the Iracing chat clear except for race talk only, once qualifying has begun, and through the end of race. We have a discord chat we will be using during the race in SRM discord https://discord.gg/NV5jFxh. Feel free to join in if ya like, but be warned nobody is safe there, as there is always a good amount of harassment getting dished out . If you have a noisy background we will ask you to use push to talk.

Turn 1 lap 1, blah blah blah here we go already i know.... guys seriously, again give each other respect and room out there, its a long race and you will get your chances to make your moves I promise! Let's prove to PRL we have what it takes to be on the big stage, and this doesn't mean you need to be fast, just smart .

Pace lap with rolling start, do not let a huge gap form and then take off to close it up! This will create a huge problem back through the field. Please try to go on the start finish line, or as close as ya can with your spotter yelling at ya .

Fun factor! Let's have fun guys, it's the most important rule ! See everyone tomorrow night  

 

[TheGreatC81]

1) I've been doing some sessions here and there, along with the practice race. Going between this and the F3 is a little weird.

2) I like the Boot best. I'm not big on really short tracks, but it does make getting into a rhythm easier, and not as many places to screw it up. I'm confident I'll find a way though.

3) a) Only to tell Mark to go fornicate with himself, but in a much more colorful way.
    b) If he even starts. I'm already hearing rumors of a possible puss-out.
    c) Not unless Brazil suddenly goes dry.
