Lap 2 #96 clips #54 to cause an incident (race was restarted).
Lap 3 #77 slides up and makes contact w/ #39 in turn 3. After review, the #39 had his left side tires BELOW the dashed lines, which means he was in the territory already reserved for #77. #39 was low because the outside lane gave him little room in the middle, but he appears to have had enough room to thread the needle. Incident charged to #39 who served his penalty.
Lap 20 #5 gets bumper-hooked by #103. While #103 was moving down the track, the responsibility in this case is on the trailing car as they are just exiting the turn. Incident charged to #5.
Lap 21 #095 spins while coming into the pits and is hit by #96. #095 served his penalty.
Lap 36 #712 gives a bad bump to #43; #712 served his penalty.
1 and parks: #22, #75, #710, #096, #25, #103, #96, #39, #5, #095, #712
1 and park (next two races): none
After 10 races this season, we have 10 different winners. Our numbers historically drop during the summer months, but that stat speaks to the level of competition in the series. Great job by all!
ALSO, there is a chance we are going to be testing a new track, possibly as early as next week. IF we can get everything sorted out by then, we will provide a link to download the track and test it during next week's TallyChallenge practice session. I will update this thread as well as Facebook to provide a link to download the track if/when we are able to get a date set up for testing. Stay Tuned!
Lap 21 #46 bumper-hooks off the #17 car. The move made by #128, while aggressive, was clean and legal. Incident charged to #46 who served his penalty.
Lap 30 An accordion effect causes drivers to play bumper cars with each other. This looks like a classic "racin' deal" to me as I didn't see any driver to anything wrong to cause the incident; just bad timing for a checkup. No incident charged.
Lap 37 Another accordion effect stacks up the single lane racing and causes a wreck. Again, I can't find fault in any one driver. Stuff like this is more likely to happen when the field decides to parade around the track in single file instead of racing it up.
Lap 40 #96 is slow to accelerate when the green flag flies and it causes a wreck behind him. #96 parked.
Lap 63 #25 gets into #43 while entering the pits; #25 parked.
Lap 64 #44 gets into #38 while entering the pits; #44 did not serve his drive-through penalty and is docked 1 lap.
1 and parks: #22, #75, #710, #096, #25, #96, #5, #46, #44

Points and Bracket Series will be updated Monday evening. ALSO, we will be testing a different track during the 7-8:20pm EST practice session. You can get that track here- http://www.mediafire.com/download/ddmul ... 015_BP.rar
Lap 8 The #05 Jon VanGorder slides up in the tri oval hitting the #96 causing a multi-car incident. The #05 correctly served his penalty stop.
Lap 46 The #5 David Day gives a bad bump to the #83 hooking himself off of his bumper setting off a multi-car incident. Because the #5 was on a 1 and park entering the race and failed to park, he will be suspended for the next race in this series and return on a one and park.
Lap 64 The #18 moves below the #9 in the tri oval creating a 4 wide situation. The #18 had room and made a clean move. Things tightened up entering the corner and a wreck ensued. I would have like to see the cars on the high side give a little more room but all in all everyone held a pretty steady line. I'm calling this one a "racin deal". No penalties issued.
1 and parks: #22, #75, #710, #096, #05
The #5 is suspended for the next race in this series and may return for the final race.
ANOTHER GREAT RACE GUYS!! CONGRATS TO CHUCK MCCLURE ON THE WIN!!!
Good luck to the championship contenders of Tim Noftsker, Chuck McClure (-11), and Brian Schilling (-20). ALSO, good luck to Jeff Crivello and (again) Brian Schilling in the Bracket Series champsionship; the highest finisher next Thursday wins it.
Lap 6 #43 clips #334 (a.k.a. #710); #43 served his penalty.
Lap 12 The bottom line checks up and several drivers make contact, causing a few to spin. This has the markings of a "racin' deal"; no incidents charged.
Lap 35 #90 bumps #334 (a.k.a. #710) while entering the pits; causing an incident. #90 served his penalty.
Lap 56 #115 gets into multiple cars while entering the pits; #115 parked.
1 and parks: n/a
Congrats to Tim Noftsker on the TallyChallenge championship and to Brian Schilling for the Bracket Series championship! Also, a big shout-out to Chuck McClure and Jeff Crivello on finishing runner-up in each.
ALSO, remember this Thursday we are doing a fun race/test session on a track we might be adding to next season's schedule. The server should be open sometime between 7:30 or 8pm EST. The track can be found here: http://www.mediafire.com/download/ddmul ... 015_BP.rar
If you download the track and it does not work, you might need the updated "shared" folder, which is located in your "tracks" folder. You can get that here: http://www.mediafire.com/download/svybj ... shared.zip. You can keep your original shared folder or overwrite it with this one; either will be fine.
LASTLY, please be sure to get your cars uploaded for this series. There are several drivers who have not uploaded their cars to the RaceLM car file manager, so any new drivers that show up cannot see your cars. Here is a list of ALL of the car files currently uploaded at RTG: http://www.racelm.com/rlm/viewcars.cfm? ... 1618486984. PLEASE be sure you only have 2 car files uploaded per series.

Just a friendly reminder we will be opening the server around 8pm EST tonight to test out a new track. The track download and info is in the post above and also in the MSR TallyChallenge Race room in Teamspeak. We hope to get a decent car count so we can get a good idea about how the draft works with a large number of cars.
