Thumbs up Online racing game for everyone bored at work

I just got into this a few days ago, and its pretty dope. You create a racing team and go through a season of races. You get to choose your type of car, tires, engine, driving style, car setups ets.. complete with practice sessions and qualifying. You can even have teams to share setup info and it also helps you during the race. The races are then simulated based on your setup. I started a private series for BAIC for all you who love to waste company time.. join up and lets get some $hit started.

Smokey Racing FTW!

First you setup your car and run some practice sessions.. as soon as more people join the qualifying will start, and then after that the race. You probably only spend maybe 5-15 min a day messing with your setups but after the first race youll be addicted. Its fun as hell.

okay... here's the very very easy breakdown of the game.

I'm guessing you guys have joined the private game. Whomever created the game has to start the game when he believes there is enough players to play the game. Until that point, if you ever go to car setup under garage, it will always say (coming soon) or something like that. After you've selected your car and other specs you must wait until the start of the season.

Don't worry, I was confused too when I was thinking wtf? I can't do anything. Once the game starts, it's a lot easier to understand.

Yeah as soon as more people sign up we can get the game going. you can have more than one game so you can practice on a public championship, they usually get going faster.
