cool anecdote about the team sessions. I have done a few team races and they are a ton of fun with friends. my one gripe with sessions is that its very... permanent. like if you join with the wrong car or wrong team, you cant back out and change it. any idea why it was implemented like that?

I am horrible at iracing, likely because I never practice and just decide to hop into a race occasionally, but it is a good way to spend the offseason when we cant go irl racing

The teams thing is interesting. It bit me a few months ago because a teammate accidentally registered for a race with the wrong car. He couldn't back out or join the race with the new team the rest of us registered with because he was already in a team.

I'm not sure why it's implemented this way, but given the issues with registration/session creation for the Daytona 24 hour this year I'd guess the team event registration is write only and doesn't permit updates in order to simplify the session creation logic.
