Standings After Race 1

Too early to tell anything from these standings. Every car is even, so Wick could win and Barros could come 20th and they'd be even. The only two Toyotas in  the field had problems, so hopefully TRD can figure things out. I do know that a lot of cars set themselves up for a good season by starting well.

Florida 400

Welcome to the inagural Florida 400! Here is what went down in the race.

Lap 5: Jamie Simms(4), who was on the pole for the event, was passed in turn 1 by Brendan Irons(87).

 Lap 16: Scott Unger gets loose in the back of the pack, and spins into the wall. No caution.

 Lap 60: Almost identical incident puts Drew Tabulov into the wall coming out of 4.

 Lap 100: After a debris caution, Jim Powers(13) motered by Brendan Irons stealing the lead

 Bad day for Taylor Motorsprts. Wick (26)retired with engine troubles, and Fischer retired with electrical problems. These were the only two DNFs.

 After green flag pitstops, Matt Zetticci(6) and Matheus Barros(10) battled for the lead.

 Around lap 200 during green flag pit stops, Tommy Morello(21) and Zach Dorian(61) collide coming off of turn 2. This brought out the second caution of the day.

 There was an epic 3 car battle for the lead for the last 40 laps. Barros came out on top before Powers and Zetticci.

 And here are the final results. Fletcher Autosport and Northstar Motorsports both get top 10s for both cars. The 400 mile race ended really close, and was a great opener for season 1.

The series will head up the road to Rockingham and race on the miler track up there next weekend. Can Taylor Motorsports rebound? Can Barros extend a slim points lead? Find out next week!

News

The Logocast Cup series will begin races this weekend(hopefully)! Depending on wifi connections in the hotel I will be staying at in Philadelphia, I will post the results of the opening Florida 400 in Homestead.

The scoring rules will change. Instead of running individual sims, I will edit the schedule of the seasons on the game to our 14 race schedule. Everything will be saved and stored there, with in depth points. The points will be based off the 1999 system.

Only 20 cars will race this year. Instead of waiting for another person, we will have a nice number at 20 drivers with 10 teams.

As of now, races will not be recorded. I cannot find a program that records for windows 8. If I do halfway through, then I will start. But screenshots have worked for me in the past.

I will open up the All-Star race voting soon. We will decide on a track that is not on the schedule to run at after the 14th race.

So lets get at it, boys!

Team Powers Racing

The 10th and final team have been announced! Owner Chris Powers will manage the #1 Adesa, and #13 Irving Oil Chevrolet SS in this first season of Logocast Cup. Jasen Severn and Jim Powers will be driving.
