It says 22.00, what timezone? (please, dont tell me its GMT, because it would be midnight here, Finland is GMT +2)
We are 1 hour behind CET which would make it 23.00, which is quite ridiculous too..
Cheers, Makikou

10pm CET is the time (=8pm UTC)
I fail to see why this would be a ridiculous race time ?
Maybe you forgot to take into consideration there's people from all over the world in this series. 22:00 CET for example is 8am Aussie time... anytime earlier would be MOST inconvenient for our friends from Down Under, while even 23:00 start time could be considered a minor problem in comparison
I agree that 23:00 would be inconvenient for any "Europe Only" series. But this ain't one of those

Then i may have to withdraw, i got a life too (sarcasm mode off).
Well, good luck then, i think i may be able to get a team on still, a lot of drivers from PPD..

22:00 CET for example is 8am Aussie time... anytime earlier would be MOST inconvenient for our friends from Down Under. Actually 22:00 CET works out to 6am for me here in Brisbane, Australia. But that`s good because race is a Monday morning here. An 8am start would be impossible for me as I have to take the kids to school around 8:30. Cheers... |

When I first started racing(Viper Racing), the only half decent races to be had were in Europe. The start times were`nt particularly ideal for anyone in Oz, 2 or 3am..  But I was very keen back then & rarely missed a race. Guess it just comes down to how much you love to race & what`s available? 11pm or midnight would have been a luxury to me back then...hehe But nowadays there are so many series at different sites, different games, that it would surely not be that hard to find one that suits your lifestyle. Cheers... |

Can we move the race 1 hour, just 1 hour earlier? It would fit the scandinavian racers ALOT more. All im asking is just 1 hour, can we move it, please? (wouldnt necessary have to be in race 1, but in future races?)

Ok so we do move it up now its 3pm here is to early here for racing, Dave, and Bmxtwins can vouch for this i do believe... 4pm is more ideal for me... also if we go earlier we have Crash getting up at 5 am to race just because somedrivers cant stay up an hour later?
i race in another game at midnight we are mostly american besides one New Zealander and one guy stationed in Italy Ibelieve... no one complains but if it was moved back an hour one guy would be getting up early and the guy who made the mod would miss the race due to his job and the new zealander would be racing at like 3pm which wouldnt be ideal either. So sometimes you gotta suck it up and race whats given to you, or dont race at all thats your desicion.
