re: Daytona 500 Discussion Thread*

What time will the green flag drop?

Apparently I was just on a Go Rving commercial on Speed. I missed it.

Hmmm... let me think. You have to create a team. When creating a team, it should give you the option of joining a private league, or just joining an open group like a group of particular fans.


If you missed that part, at the home screen, under your team's name there are three buttons to create group, join group, or leave group.


Click join a group. Then join a private group, then enter the groups info.

Green flag 1:20

I found it. Think I'm good to go. Looks like it displays my real name. Change I make that private?

Yes you can, but I don't recall exactly how. Click on your name where you see it, and on that page is a privacy settings button.

I would like to sign up.. Whats the league info?

I took care of it. Thanks.

Restrictor plates just kill the hp. They should stick those bars across the top of the car and add that lip to the rear spoiler like in 2000. The pack racing was crazy then.

Am I the only oen who remembers the superspeedways before the plates? It wasn't pack racing, that is a result of the plates.

I wonder if for the four "plate" races each year, mandate a V-6 instead of a V-8. That would cut HP, but still give better throttle response.

Throttle response isn't as critical at the super speedways because they don't lift once up to speed. If they feel that the cars are too fast they just need to put different plates on the cars, Nascar wont go to a v6.... That is far too costly and inefficient with resources. They aren't trying to get rid of pack racing though. Last year we had the two car breakaways and rules were changed to prevent that so pack racing would come back.
