That don't matter...my wife does same thing. If I take a day off, it inevitably ends up being a day off for her cuz "...she never gets one" ...have fun with the HoneyDo list.

Looks like my Mother-in-law has my back... she told my wife that I've been bustin my ass all weekend and that I deserve a day of chill... We're still going t ogo shopping a littler later, but I just fired up the Xbox.... It's SO very cool when your Mother-in-law backs you up... It's hard to argue!!

Must be nice lol. My wife has had me outside at 8 am the past four mornings painting the house until the sun went down. I'm on "lunch break" now so I'm sneaking some forum time in. My mother in law made us come over to help paint her house, but now that we are painting ours she won't answer the phone. Women!

Is this still on for tonight?

According to the message from joe it is regardless of fwks or mot.

I'm not sure if I'm going to make it or not. Any cars shared for this?

usual club race time? 10:30 or 11:30(EST)?

10:30 EST

im in

Was planning on running this but the power to my area of town just bit the dust so I might not make it.

You gotta have the worst luck ever (at least this month).

Well, right up there with Frank's racing luck.

I've asked sykle1t to register here in order to fill in more information and answer questions!

One detail wasn't mentioned.... Must have street tires!

Just saw this... I'm out... there is no time to retune for this...

I couldn't make this one . how did it go last night?

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA.

"retune"...

DUDE, you can't be serious. For a demo derby? You needed to tune it?

And beef, I guess it was alright? (From my perspective) I lasted all of 1 or 2 hits. That's as far as I managed to go. Therefore, it wasn't as enjoyable for me (from an actual demolition standpoint). The company however made it very enjoyable. And watching everybody eventually hobble made it fun.

It was especially funny watching Case limp into the pits and then come flying out to hit somebody. Then rinse and repeat.

Yeah... Retune....

All I did was slap on some Sport Suspension bits and street tires....

I wish I could see that, it sounds hilarious! Did anyone save the replay?

I may have one or two replays saved... I will post them to my SF tonight...

The First round we never got past the first corner! LOL

The rest of the runs we did at the test track on the layout A... That was entertaining.....

Is that even possible? The test track has no pits...

That's right.... We decided to change it up, set a 10:00 minute timer and GO TO TOWN!! It was a Blast... We have a new fun Lobby config!

Joe Ruled the night with his Corvair, although in real life he would have been impaled by his steering column....

Once we said NO RULES, I dieseled everyone in the final round... I even raced Marm and Low in reverse and WON!!! Final hit on Marm was awesome! I believe I have that replay!

You should have done a round at a speedway - everyone chasing each other in reverse would be interesting to watch! I can't wait to watch the replay of all that destruction at the test track

Honestly, it didn't matter what track we used.... We would just start the race and start smashing.... There was no chasing at high speeds... With SIM damage on , one good smack and you were pretty much limping... Death came on the second well placed strike...

We should try this with limited damage and see what it's like.... OR ..... Cat-n-Mouse with limited damage and pits? Can it be done? would be fun to try!

That would be fun. Maybe create a club event and schedule it for next saturday or something. I would just start in reverse and smash into the guy behind me. Something tells me that disabling his engine will be a bigger blow than my rear brakes not working (what are brakes in a demo derby anyway?)

...this is going to be so wrong, but in my head I can't stop saying this in Low's voice

"If you're breaking, you ain't racin'!"

..please don't kick me, please don't kick me...
