Only cars of token values between 0 & 9 tokens will be used at this event (see list above for quick ref). Clubmans & Tokens quick guide (see bottom for full details)- All drivers get a Tokens budget for the season
- The faster the driver, the less Tokens they get
- The better the car, the higher it's Tokens cost is to use in a race
- If you do not attend the race, you will lose a predetermined individual quantity of your Tokens (equal to races "Suggested Token Spend")
- Trust me, you do not want to run out of Tokens before the final race!

EXTRA INFO:(Repeated) I'm sure you've noticed I've made a bit of a tweak to the system. I've done this because I want to encourage people to take the chance to drive the different levels of fantastic cars that PnG has to offer.
I could be wrong, but it seemed like we were all almost afraid to splash out on anything more lavish then an Elan (13 tokens)!!! For some of the faster guys it's very hard to splash out as they obviously have smaller budgets, while maybe some of the guys with bigger budgets didn't want to splash out & find themselves up front on their own . So I have worked out some affordable 'token ranges' for each of the final four races of this test/fun season:
Race 4) Edmonton = 7 to 16 Token cars Race 5) Watkins Glen = 12 to 20 Token cars Race 6) Mid-America = 0 to 9 Token cars Race 7) Riverside = 3 to 12 Token cars
Some drivers may immediately be concerned that they "can't afford a car for the Watkins tokens range"... don't worry, you can . To go with the 'token ranges', I have also worked out a "Suggested Token Spend" for each person, for each race. You don't have to stick to your "Suggested Token Spend", but if you're close to it, you should be about on pace with most other people (= improved close racing) & finish the season on budget .
Cheers Legzy
p.s. Please remember that you get nothing for finishing the season with tokens to spare, but you will suffer badly if you spend more then your budget

Is this a fantasy track? I dont think I've come across it before. I originally thought it was Mid Ohio.
It dont half eat my left front tyre on the Volumetrico. Although I think that could be an XD problem.

This is what the readme says "The Mid America Motorplex is a relatively new club circuit located in Pacific Junction, Iowa that was designed by world-renowned track designer Alan Wilson. It is a driver friendly (few things to hit), yet challenging course that took me many laps to get a good handle on. The track is 2.23 miles long with 15 turns (increasing and decreasing radiuses), long straights, many passing zones, a very challenging chicane near the pit entrance, and a flat out kink."

Very interesting circuit - some of the turns feel like they will never end.
Anyone of the 'quickies' have a target time I can judge myself against. After a few laps to learn the circuit I managed a 1:47.77 in the Cobra roadster

You must mean me Ligel? I managed a 1:46 in the 'Mustang ATCC' which would use up my one spare token . I started with the 'Z06' & it felt better then I expected it too, I'll give it another whirl when I've tried a couple more cars. I couldn't get on with the 'Falcon Weslake' at all... didn't seem to turn at all

hi, Hopefully I will be able to race in this event. I'm not sure how many tokens I will able to use - but i guess the L76 Corvette should be OK. Looking at the tokens list…..the thing that impresses me is the number of drivers – where did they all come from?! I will keep an eye out for others on the simracing PnG server during this weekend - and try to get on update: i may not racing this event as drivers will be racing for points to help their championship position's. Then again, if they are free spaces on the server towards the end of quali - i may just stick around for the race.

I think people will be racing at laptimes around 1:44 to 1:45
