[CANCELLED] Thunder Alley Stock Car Global Series

Post by Haruna »

Thunder Alley Global Series
An epic stock car championship, travelling the four corners of the globe. Who will come out on top?

THE SERIES HAS BEEN CANCELLED.

If, like me, you fondly remember the intense GRASCAR and GRACE championships, you should be familiar with this series. The Thunder Alley Global Series is, as it's name implies, a stock car championship on the world scale. You'll be fighting for victory on a variety of venues, ranging from the tight streets of St. Petersburg, to the open superspeedway of Daytona, and even travel overseas to world-renowned circuits such as Suzuka. Don't wait on this mammoth of a racing adventure - sign up and join me on what could be one of the most epic race series this side of GR-F1.

bulls**t.

I don't want to triple post.

But surely someone besides me finds the idea of wrestling a 3400 lbs stock car interesting?

And I remember several cries on lack of Nascar style series during past months ... God knows, maybe it misses a big name entering it to to be followed by an avalanche of signups? Between GR-racers is way too much persons acting like sheep in flock currently - waiting on others to decide instead of him. At least it's my impression from past about year.

That's always been the case though, I saw it with OHS Circuits - I had to stir up some interest by inviting people, and then finally others did start to come in. *shrugs*

#23 is taken by Reh already, but you can have Jeff Gordon's number - #24.

You're right, I did ask Marc if he could ask you.
