top_shelf_12 Posted June 27, 2014 Report Share Posted June 27, 2014 Means CCS is a physical track and I'm sure there will be contact at some point that's all. As for the green, it's a pretty unique color but those green cars multiplied. 8, 84, 00, the dirt 8... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, we payed about $10 for the pin stripes.. Some luxuries must be had, even if it breaks the budget. I never said anything about being fast! I just hope everyone else is slower!

Yeah I noticed that watching some of the cars, seems like you have to go in a little easier into 3 than in 1. I also noticed it seems like some drivers don't (maybe they're scared of that wall?) move up the track exiting turn 4, but the front runners do. I appreciate the advice and will keep that in mind.

top_shelf_12 Posted June 27, 2014 Report Share Posted June 27, 2014 Good advice and glad you get the concept of "slow down to go fast" Smooth can beat speed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hardheadted Posted June 27, 2014 Report Share Posted June 27, 2014 Even though it's totally different, he's been sim racing since he was 4 and races as a pro on iracing. He learned the theory and concepts of going slow to go fast there, also they have to build their cars from the ground up.. What I've seen is he takes and uses what he learned there, figures out how to use it on the track. At least that's what he did when we were renting the gocarts on friday nights. I do know he understands that it's a different world but the theory is the same. He's done pretty good in the pro series there and won a few big races online. Even finished 3rd behind Bubba Wallace Jr., (nascar driver) in one race recently. That's why I'm really wanting him to have a chance. Besides that, he wears a size 14/15 shoe!! That has to mean something, the gas pedal is scared of that big foot!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HiTech Posted June 27, 2014 Report Share Posted June 27, 2014 ONE of our team mates started out with remote racing and ventured over to racing cars ..he has done very well over the years ..i dont know how those guys can keep up with their own car i could not keep up with one em for one lap ..too fast for me .others have done well too from standing to sitting behind the wheel ....race what the car will give you and push it just a tiny bit more .find that weakness in the other racer and use it against them .i did not win races with a pocket full of money .i had hand me down parts from some of the money teams i was racing against ..i took what i could afford and beat em a few times .some wondered how could i beat them with the junk they gave me ...one mans junk is another mans gold ..good luck we will be watching ..

There were plenty of bumps already on the car, it's already had it's rookie bumps, only difference is a paint job and a new driver! I'd hate to have to spend a whole dollar or two repainting part of it... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
