TRD3 One Off INDY 500: Interest Check?
As it's another empty TRD3 weekedn with regards to the DTM and Supercar V8s, I was wondering if the crew would be interested in running the Indy 500 using the IRL cars under the 'Open Wheel' category (if anyone has unlocked it).
State your interest here. If there is enough interest I'll come up with some race parameters and we'll do it.
No worries. I'm thinking of a 50 lap race, so it wouldn't be too time consuming.
And default setups with the exception of gearing9-23-2006 Cadey-Lee Deacon,The Rocket Pub, New Parks, Leicester: Little one, through some miracle of reincarnation may you be given a second chance at a full life. You\'ll not soon leave our thoughts and prayers ;(

not sure how many of the old worlders will want to do it though.
I think they'll be scared to run so fast so close to those concrete walls."Approach racing like billiards - bash the ball too hard, get nowhere." Juan Manuel Fangio

i'd probably get bored of going left and flat out all the time after 1 lap..maybe 2 if i resist the temptation to drive it into the walls trying to cause as much destruction and carnage as possible...and see if there is a message that comes up and says "game over- driver dead"
How do I print my voicemail?

I also might reccommend starting from the back of the grid to spice things up a bit.... or whatever you want tannat!
maybe no restarts after the first lap?
just running 50 perfect laps at indy is hard enough.. maybe we don't need to spice it up at all
I won't be able to run the race 'till monday though on account of going to the real 500 sunday
maybe this will spice things up - to the winner of the race I will send an official ticket stub from this year's 500. it's a real pretty ticket that's 8 whole inches tall! (not sure what that is in euros. sorry!)
it's like the one below only different.
