Just checked trading paints and only the team owner can upload a team paint. GRAsim #1 has the green paint from the Daytona race but team2 has no paint assigned. I just got Matt to send me the paint file for the Daytona paint so I can edit it. Do you want to stick with it or change it up? i can't remember where the paint file for GRAsim #2 is though.

Looking like only four of us. Merge into one team?

There's 5. That's why I asked if you guys would be comfortable doing 2 man. Unless we could pull someone else here into it. 5 is too many for 1 team IMO.
Team #1 Eric Eng Pete Hebron Paul Darling
Team #2 George Wood Zack Reinke

Team #1Eric Eng Pete Hebron Paul Darling Team #2George Wood Zack Reinke Like I said, I'd be fine with a two man team each with a 6 hour stint (or each doing two 3 hour stints). If anybody from team 1 would be okay with that we could do a switch with whoever that is and George. Other than that if I really need to (I don't know if the race would still count for us) I could do a bit more then 6 hours but would probably take a 10 or 15 minute break at some point just for my sanity. Haha

I think the minimum participation needed for a 2 man team is each driver to do 1.5 hrs.
12hrs /2 drivers = 6hrs then minimum participation is 25% which would be 1.5hrs to avoid DQ.

Oh, I didn't see the fifth on the chart.
No, I can't do but the late hours. I have my Saturday lessons to give!
And Zack, you're absolutely nuts to try three hour runs at Sebring. Daytona was bad enough, and you get a break twice a lap.
Good thinking Pete, I forgot about the fair share rule...don't want to pull a Jordan Taylor!
Crap, we need a third.

Very Important for you guys this weekend. Stay away from the pit wall on the front straight. It can really mess up your race.

Would I have permission to try and find someone last minute to bring in to the team for the race?

So a yes then? haha. I've sent a couple PMs to guys that posted in the forums that they are looking for a team and will try to get into a practice session with them later tonight if they still don't have teams. If not, I guess I'm running a REALLY long stint in the morning. haha

Yeah, try to grab someone that can fit in our team schedule. That'd be great!

Also, George. If you want to try this set, here, out that would be awesome. If you don't like it or don't have time to check it out tonight I can still run with Paul's set but I'm feeling much more confident and am about a half a second faster on average with this one. Ran about 10 laps in a row within two tenths just now and practiced and finally managed to get under 2:02 (if only barely) with a 2:01.9. edit: one more thing, what is the earliest you think you will be available tomorrow. I know the sheet says you might be available after the 6 hour mark, but do you have any better idea than that? Just in case I can't get someone else I want to know how long I'm going to be driving before we can start switching off. haha And for anybody, how to I enter a session as the GRAsim team? As of right now I can only enter as Team (your name here). For one, if I'd like to get a qualifying time in. And, it will be pretty hard to make the race if I'm not allowed to register us in the morning, unless somebody else will be doing that. I've not done any team racing before this, so excuse me if I'm asking really stupid questions here. Attachments:Sebring.sto (1.82 KB)

Good call, I think the team "owners" need to send an invite to join the team. I think this is Matt(team 1)and Paul(team 2). Hopefully next time they are on they can send the invites out.
edit: if you don't hear from them, create a team tonight or tomorrow and invite George and any other drivers to join.

We also need to have everyone NOT registered for the wrong team, or else "fair share" is calculated in the race, correct?
I will leave Team #1 and stay with Team #2.
My time slots are definite. I can't be home before then, and the "maybe" hours are planning for late customers and light snow on the road.
The setup is fine, just have to adjust the brake bias for my comfort. I can do that in the car. Right now, I'm putting in 2:09 in race traffic, just trying not to destroy the car while everyone else does flying laps.
