Hey guys sorry about leaving without an explanation last night. My wife walked in with a trunk full of groceries and needed my help. I just turned off the PS3 and jumped out to help her. 

This race was awesome guys. Lots of tight battles. It was a lot of fun. 

See you guys next week.

Sorry if i was a little agressive on keeping the lead.  it was the only way i could make it 12 laps on the first stint with tires.  i had to be in the lead and run my own pace which was about a second slower then it seemed Juan and Eci were confortable running.  had to do what i had to do.  i think i nudged Tguns once not knowing he was beside me.  i think we were 4 wide once down the Kimmel straight.  hella fun race.

Juan  by the way,  awesome save early in the going.  i thought you were going to loose it big time.  other then merging back into the track in the chicane that was incredible.

Pete, thanks.  Got it.  Now I just have to load it onto my PS3.

Hey guys!  I'm new to the "planned events" type of racing, but I'm very excited to try to get out of the mess that is the open lobby.  I had some technical issues preventing me from joining this week, but my PS3 seems to be cooperating now, so I'm already getting ready for next week!

Other then sending a friend request to ECIRACING, is there anything else I need to do to participate?

Curious what sort of lap time I need to be putting up to be competitive in Monaco!

1:51's in the worlds UGLIEST lonewolf on Sports: hard tires... lots of work to do on this car still, but I'm hoping I'm not 15 seconds off the pace!

couldnt tell you.  ive never raced monaco in a planned event setting.  usually just open lobby.   all i know about the place from that is check your feelings at the door.  if you bring em to the track they probably going to get hurt.

i think i remember a 1:47.xxx being the time to beat last year?  i only raced a few events here and there in my "rookie season" of FF's

Wow I definitely have some work to do.  I wonder if that was with the same regulations and hard sports?
