    Hey guys, I had a crazy idea just a few short moments ago.
    How about a hosted Drink Driving Tournament? 3 races.
    Rules will be:
    1 standard alcoholic drink before race one
    2 before race two
    3 before race three
    (all in all 6 standard drinks)

    30 minute practice for race one with a 10 minute/4 lap qualifying.
    Race lengths will vary. Laps are just an estimate.
    Race one will be 20 laps of Daytona
    Race two will be 40 laps of Charlotte (grid will we the order we finish race one)
    Race three will be 60 laps of Talladega (grid will be by points/average finishing position of the first two races, in reverse)

    Car: TBA

    Date: 8/6/2013

    Time: TBA

    iRacing (actually online racing) is what made me give up drinking (at least everyday), you guys who drink and iRace would probably see some improvement if you stayed sober :D You may not have as much fun though!!

    Fairly interesting idea. Only ever drank and driven twice on iRacing and both times it actually went well... I'd have to check closer to the date though whether I could enter because chances are i'll be out at a pub/nightclub having a big one anyway haha.

    We'd have to make a standard drink a Yard glass for you Mads lol. Stay tuned and let the rest of the TTR guys know, the more the merrier, could be a lot of fun (may need unlimited fast repair).
    I usually have a few beers but drunk makes Iracing near imposable, especially in the v8 with sober fast guys all around you.

    Ahah same. my first race with ROOZ on GT5. Pre-race I necked two beers to calm the nerves, followed by a coffee for focus... That race was one of only two or three race wins for the 3 seasons I competed!

    +1 :D Even the MX-5 is a handful and seems to gravitate towards fields and walls when driven drunk! ]:D
