Indy Mini-Series In Lead-up to FRL's Indy 200

 2020 marks the 5th year the FRL will be hosting an Indy Car E-racing event at the famed Indianapolis Motor Speedway. The FRL is even more excited to announce an expansion of events leading up to the running of the Indy 200 on May 17th this year!

 Two more Indy events are added to the calendar to help drivers to get better accustomed to these X999 monsters in Forza 7. Beginning April 19th, an FRL mini-series of racing will begin with the Age of Geek Podcast 120 to be held at Homestead Speedway Circuit. This 80 lap event will put everyone into the racing mindset needed for quick decisions and smooth racing in the month to come. Lapping at nearly 24 seconds per 1.5 miles, the total race will cover 120 miles in around 30 minutes.

 Then on May 3rd, the Indianapolis Grand Prix Circuit will host the DBtN Grand Prix. This 28 lap event will test the mettle of even the most veteran drivers. Finally, on May 17th the crown jewel of the FRL calendar will take place. The 5th running of the FRL's Indy 200 event at the famed Brickyard Speedway. Last year saw Ethan Maestri take his first victory at the event. He will face stiff competition from two-time winner Andrew Steppat, inaugural winner Travis Billingsley and a host of up and coming FRL drivers at this most prestigious event.

 Points will be awarded at each event based on placement, and a champion will be crowned at the end of this mini-season. Cars allowed are as follows:

 Low Downforce (circle track) aero package will be mandatory for the two oval tracks. High Downforce (Road Course) aero package will be mandatory for the Grand Prix event. Additionally, the 'Shift w/clutch' option will be removed from play in order to reflect the technology of the real cars on track. 'Automatic' will be allowable.

 Now is the time to begin your preparations for this exciting series of racing! Please contact the FRL with your intent to participate at your earliest convenience.
