League Race #5 - Americana - Nascar Racing

Boring oval racing yeah yeah yeah.

To celebrate all that is motorsport, we're going to have a go at racing the Nascars that are available in the online garage (you don't need to own one).

Which one are you (dibs on the one facing the wrong way)?

And, although one of the races will indeed be around the iconic Indy Speedway, one of the races will be around Laguna Seca, so some right hand bends. woohoo.

And, rather than have a million yellow flags (we don't need add breaks) we'll run boost at max, so in both races we should have some fun and close racing!

Finally, unusual for arrive and drive racing - I'll allow tuning - so get in early on the night.

Here is a handy link for tuning tips.

The Cars:

Not sure which one we get, but they're all much the same eh...

The tracks:

We all know and love Laguna Seca - but here's the map in any case. And...

If anyone says they forgot the course layout they're banned.
