================================================
Pre-Race Practice night Wednesday 03/24/10
There will be 2 short races for teammates to test their driver swapping and get some track time with more cars on track, etc.
 
There will be a US and an EU session!
 
US time Friendly Pre-Race Practise night: The first race will take place at 9:30 PM EDT and will run for 30 minutes, and the second race will start at 10:15 PM EDT and also run for 30 minutes.
EU time Friendly Pre-Race Practise night: details might change!  The first race will take place at 21:00 CET and will run for 30 minutes, and the second race will start at 21:45 CET and also run for 30 minutes.
 
Please use this time wisely! Do not waste your time and effort putting lots of effort into winning these races or spend the time hot lapping. That is not the intent of these practices races. Everyone should consider this night as their final opportunity to test driver swaps, get use to the pit entry location and speed limit and test your actual race setup under full race-like conditions before the real race on Saturday night.

Here we go the penultimate race of Season 2, lets make this a good one.

[Markus Bardenhorst]

Would be cool for EU time zone citizens to have the race start at 21:00 CET ... but as we're talking about 1000 kilometers of length, quick maths say that should be done within roughly 5 hours...

Can you confirm the time table is correct nevertheless?

[Lenny Trapp]

I was hope for my favorite long-version of Nurby ;-(    but still a great track none the less.

[Jimmi Allison]

You are correct Markus - Bruce and i will confirm a change in either time or length - this is supposed to be a longer one than 5-5½ hour. Stay tuned ;-)

[Jimmi Allison]

Confirmed; Round 9 is 1500km

[Paolo Taddeolini]

So these are about 1000 miles like Road Atlanta round...correct?

[Jimmi Allison]

Pretty close Paolo - very close to 8 hours give and take a little.

[Bruce Fisher]

Jimmi is in process of updating everything to reflect 1500km

What are the odds of having the race actually start a hour or so earlier anyway? It would make a big difference to some of the EU chaps.

[Jimmi Allison]

Odds are 0 to none, unfortuantly. But if you can convince all the US drivers - then i dont have a problem.
This race starts at 9pm CET, thats 3pm EST - a lot of the US residents are working on saturdays (even i am, with my new job) so that wont happen.

I´d rather have the house to myself, with kids and wife in bed, so they dont bug me anyways

[Robert Fakes]

Yeah that is true  . I'm not much of a night owl haha, lucky Anders can do it, he's the man!

[Kevin Banic]
