Please note that the only two of my "new" tracks that are in a "race raedy" state are Alamo Marina GP and Sandy Extension (I'll be reworking the pits on this at some point but it works ok now). The others are under construction and may not be able to be completed in a logical manner.

due to host's personal problems the host has not been able to play every nodo stunt race. Today we will do part one and next week a part 2, I guess.

Hi! I'm new to the crew and was curious if there is a skill level you guys are looking for, for this playlist. I've signed up to do the welcome playlist this Saturday, but would much prefer to play nightly rather than once a week.

Hi! I'm new to the crew and was curious if there is a skill level you guys are looking for, for this playlist. I've signed up to do the welcome playlist this Saturday, but would much prefer to play nightly rather than once a week. I gotta advise you that if you are in welcome playlist, playing in this playlist will kick you out of the welcome playlist. So you should consider that. There is no skill level required other than right attitude.

Short track playlist - Week 1
Playlist runtime of around 90 minutes
Here it is guys! The Schedule for the first week, with 3 races that will certainly provide lots of action. So since this is the first official week here are some recommendations / rules: - Pits are a huge factor in this races, and while you should try to go trough the pits as quick as possible remember other people are racing too, causing a incident leaving the pits warrants a 2 pit penalty, no exceptions, people leaving the pits have no priority.
- Cars can be respawned, but its strongly advised to bring your own car, people without cars on the allowed list must pick a stock car, I will never restrict races to a small selection of expensive cars, so money shouldn't be a issue.
- Remember this is a marathon not a sprint, patience is the key here, in the races with pits use it to your advantage.
- This is a chilled out event, if you want learn the tracks, which I recommend, but please don't spend the next days hotlapping them
- Well and the most important one, have fun!
- First race grid order will be random, next ones will be reverse grids from previous races.
BTW Keep sending me tracks guys

How to pit on Richman Loop: 1. Stick to the righthand side on the uphill ramp 2. Center your car with the Secondary checkpoint 3. Full speed the jump if you are a man (Maybe release the throttle so you don't go flying over the pits) 4. Land on the ramp and activate the slowdown while you fall on the pits 5. Take the pit 6. Exit the pits without murdering anyone. Thats pretty much it guys, I don't think the pits will be that hard to hit, but since you can enter them at full speed I guess there is some potential for trouble. I made it so you can enter them full speed so it doesnt hinder other drivers turning. CALL OUT YOUR PITS IF YOU HAVE DRIVERS NEARBY, if you have a driver in front of you, make sure you don't completely annihilate him by not braking before the jump.

Sounds very fun indeed. We will be able to borrow cars right? I want a Gauntlet/Vacca/Exemplar.
Why people use these slow zones for the pits now? They look very inconsistent for all the players, some get the cars stoped, some the cars just loose 90% of the speed. I think the best solution is made a split checkpoint and made a longer section or the track so people lost more time. This things are so annoying.

Depending on the situation that might not be an option. Also there are different settings to the slowdowns so you can set them to either slow the cars down, shortly stop it or kill off the engine for some seconds. To me the effects seem pretty consistent as long as you know which stripe has which setting and some people don't trigger the effect more often than others.

I've had success setting the short strip sideways instead of long ways, seems more consistent that way with least amount of time on the pad.

Good thinking Baron, I'll definitely experiment with that :)
