2008 RD Touring Car Championship (RACE 07)

Simon James · Apr 15, 2008

when does the pre qual for the groups start

Warren Dawes · Apr 15, 2008

This is a World Championship and it would be unfair to exclude people because of too many entries, especially considering that RaceDepartment is growing at a rapid rate. It's the price we pay when a league is so popular.

I also agree with Hamman, I suspect that we won't see everybody pre-qualifying for every event, especially as the series is spread over such a long period.
You never know, even I may get to qualify for a round.

Bram Hengeveld · Apr 15, 2008

See it in the other way guys: prequalification will be a competion on its own

I just hope I could get in one of the groups.. you guys are too fast

same, both you and me remember that many might not even turn up, so we may have much less than 200 aliens to beat to get 1 race. hopefully.
considerring my best TA lap is consistent 2.08.5 i doubt i'll qualify , especially as this time i'll need fuel.
