Hawaii "Newbie League?"

2 posts by 2 people · 06 May 1996 - 08 May 1996

After a few races "in Hawaii" it's obvious to me that the leaders are much faster than myself ( my best finish was a 4th out of 26, but still a lap down on the winner). I am a "serious" racer however and managed to run several races without CAUSING any wrecks ( I was slam dunked from behind on the first lap a bunch and involved in a few multicar " nowhere to go" wrecks). Is there a league out there where I might fit in? I'm no hotshot and I'm NOT "serious" enough to flame everyone with obscenities and think I'm a better person than someone else because I can beat them at a game, but if I'm going to spend $.16/minute to race - I want to race sensible opponents. Any suggestions? Is there a league for guys like me?? P.S. I did a little "real" racing in the S.C.C.A. years ago and the thought of costing yourself AND a couple of your friends $$Thousands or a life does make "real" a LOT different than the Sim.

I get half a lap down at the start because I purposely qualify last, and go slow until my tires heat up. A league that would track our points thru a series would be fun. The really fast guys can do theirs, and we can be on a "B" team. :-) Mike -"Still one lap down"
