Quote from JTbo :

Not much of luck, I leave at Sunday mornings and at best come home at Friday evenings, probably more like Saturday mornings, so there is not much time to do preparations for next week, but certainly not time for any hobbies.

Wow, so you only get just over 24hrs a week in your own home !, That's some tough s**t there dude !. Ever thought of moving closer to work ? or are you a traveling....erm...a traveling-whateveritisyoudo-type man ?

Can't really think of anything to suggest other than leaving the server open and changing the combo every week, and hope lots of people turn up and race (but i guess you do that already). Or whenever you do get time online to race just make a post in big red letters in the General Forum Section saying lets race now.

You could always try bribing Renku to come back

I just go where my job happens to be, that is sometimes quite far away, over 1000km, sometimes bit closer, but it looks like now to be rather far away at least until summer. It is about 20-36 hours at home per weekend, goes until summer, then until christmas and then until summer again

I think I have set server so that you can change tracks, so it is only matter of yelling out what time to race and which track, ask few regulars and you could share job of posting event every week or so

Picking single day and time would have benefit of people eventually knowing that on that time on this place there is always some racing and eventually it might start to living it's own, people just come

since nobody has the time to keep this running, i guess i could jump on board and try to bring some of the weekly lx racing back again. i was lucky enough to be part of the esport racing lx cup until now but that one will end in some days. i will miss my weekly racing with all of you guys and it would be really a shame to just let it slowly die.

i would only take over if that is ok for the rest of you of course, since renku did a great job with the organization already there isn't a need to change anything (at least i guess so). just bring all the lx fans together on a specific date and keeping up the nice spirit we had until now.

a short note for those of you who can't wait, i will probably be online on volvolandia today, training for the lx cup (lx6 on bl1) and generally fooling around with all the admin commands i need to know to successfully restart the events next week. you are welcome to join me there of course

Troy, you're a top bloke

Cheers for doing this.

I might actually be able to make a few of these this year (hopefully)

Good news, I'll be there!

Great track as well, long fast sweepers = 6th gear oversteer madness. :woohoo:

I would join but being in the US puts me 6 hours behind you, I would be at work at that time so I can't race : ( And if it had been on the weekends I run the Head to Head events on Saturdays and am in the Gentlefoot races also : / so those are packed too.

Hello!
Although I only participated in two short races I really enjoyed it. Pretty cool going four cars in a row, any single mistake will cost you a place or two. Didn't think so about this combo. Thank you all!

thank you for attending guys, was lots of fun can't wait for next week

here some stats (you can never have enough stats!) from the races
