First FF race, so much fun to drive! Qualified 8th, got up to 3rd thanks to people going off ahead of me, then defended heavily for the first 10-11 laps from Stuart, really good clean fun, then he went off and I had a quiet end to the race.

Second race I got a tap from behind (I think from Marius as he waited for me, so no worries there!) then was pushing too hard out of the last corner and took my front left wheel off.

Thanks guys!

Race 1: Bad start and bad finish

Race 2: dissed from server

 

[Stuart Harvey]

had a good first race, was great fun trying to get past nik. in the end i think i was too hard on the tyres and lost pace towards the end. the 2nd race was one to forget, ended up getting beached on the 1st lap coming out of turn 3.

overall i really enjoyed my first RD club night, makes a nice change from rfactor. i will be back for some more.

 

[Dave Begley]

me please i need this

 

[Gar Hoogwout]

Yup sign me up

Thx

 

[Kevin Higgins]

Loss of front left wheel in both races was a dissapointing second outing in these cars for me, but not as dissapointing as not getting the what was it 3 remaining votes for a server restart to allow in a disconnected user - thats kinda sad. I voted yes for the record Dave.

 

[Ross McGregor]

Elbows out at 42:50! I wasn't giving up there! Poor pit-stop at 46:20 will haunt me for a while though- 1st to 4th can't be good?!

Fightback starts at 53:50, and the last few laps i'd caught Dino and we had a great battle there. Interesting race, thanks Yves for posting this, must've taken you ages to upload!

 

[Yves Larose]

thanks Yves for posting this, must've taken you ages to upload!

the upload part was nothing compare to the saving time, it took adobe premiere element 35 hours to save the movie :eek:

 

[Nik Hughes]

Nice one Yves, thanks! Looking forward to the next race (as long as it's not in the next 3 weeks!)

Hehe, bit brave, joining a race with so little practice. I think I know what you mean about the trackside options though. I had a similar problem at Hockenheim where it wasn't showing the distance signs at each corner. Like rFactor, there seems to be a "Circuit Detail" option which they forgot to put in the menu. So what I'd suggest you do is change to the highest quality graphics preset there is, then move the other individual options back to where you had them. Worked for me.

I'll have to remember the TS thing though. I've got to be honest, as I don't own GSC, I felt I had no right being in the channel.

 

[Chris Gallop]

Other than lots of people leaving, really enjoyed both races.
Good fights with Mr Flower and Mr hunter in both races, very fair with both. Proud to have raced with you guys
Mikhail Naebalov, don't worry about the clip, I had a bad exit, you tried to get round but didn't have space, so don't worry about it dude (you reminded me of Alonso last year )

 

[Alberto Casado]

Terrible race, I could not get how to make sector 2 competitively (I was losing about 2 seconds there compared to everybody). Qualified last, 1.5 seconds behind the next slowest, prf.

So, I just trained driving many laps keeping concentration, I managed to make only 2 mistakes on R1 and none in R2, so in that sense it was nice. Also trained my blue flag courtesies, many many times.

Boring today, I hope the next circuit suits me better.

 

[Dan Watson]

Qualified 3rd. Put WAY too much downforce on the car, but that did mean I flew through the Porsche Curves!

Race 1: Had an OKish start, lost a place, was battling with Andreas Loffler, Dmytry Igolkin and Patrick Wuyts, nearly T-boned Dmytry after losing it under braking into Mulsanne Corner! Couldn't get past him because of the huge straight line speed he had compared to my quite high downforce setup, and when I did catch up, it was coming out of the Porsche Curves, and nowhere to pass there! Lost a place to Patrick Wuyts, then made a mistake into the second chicane and accidentally punted him off. Didn't realise I'd done it until I saw the replay, apologies Patrick. Made a mistake coming out of Arnage and lost my front splitter, pitted and came out 14th. Went to pass Phillip Brown coming out of the Porsche Curves and I seem to have clipped him and pushed him off track, apologies Phillip. Finished 13th, but seems undeserved.

Race 2: Started 13th, got a good start, got involved in an incident with Liam Fassam at the first corner, but got away unscathed. Was up to 5th, but at the second chicane, I braked too late and spun. Was 12th behind Francisco Viterbo, gave him a couple of budges in the Porsche Curves, he did go off once but I did wait for him. Apologies Francisco. Fought my way up the field, tried to pass Andy Breedon into Indianapolis, was level with him going into the corner, if not ahead, took the racing line but maybe he did not see me there and we touched, and Andy went off. Again, hadn't realised I had done it until I saw the replay, so apologies to Andy. Was 6th when I caught a couple of Chevys. I punted Patrick Wuyts off at Indianapolis but waited for him (apologies Patrick). Finished 5th after pipping a Chevy on the line.

All in all, a disappointing event for me, for getting involved in so many incidents. I would've stopped at all of them if I had realised they had happened. I joined RD to enjoy some fun racing in a professional environment, and the rules are there to keep it that way. If I have broken the rules in any way I, along with anyone else who has broken the rules, should be reported and appropriately punished by RD. It's the only way to keep it fair.

 

[Nigel Middleton]

yes please

 

[Chris Gallop]

me please i need this

But then when you drive into walls, the car will handle worse, not better!
best stick with a bad setup, so when you inevitably stack it into a wall, you'll have more speed to catch back up

 

[Brendon Boss]

Sign me up please.

 

[Andy Breedon]

Ok include me then :/

 

[Ariciuc Razvan]

I'll join. but i'm very bad with RWD, but got to start somewhere..

Liam Fassam said: ↑

it was rather fummy Jim!

Does your boom mike move? I move mine out of the way to avoid that happening​

Hi Liam, Yes my mike will move out of the way but I do have it right up against my mouth because I'm 5 feet from my loud furnace but when i was online yesterday and was talking with somebody they said they could not hear my furnace when it started up and they did'nt hear my breathing.So I was happy.I don't get on TS much.I'm guessing I'll just do the "push to talk" way.The other issue I had was since I had to make a new profile which I haven't done in 2 years in just a few minutes and the sim sound was way to loud for me to hear TS. I thought I heard the name Jim once in a while but since there was nobody around me I thought they were talking about another "Jim".
But anyway I had fun. I hope to get the bugs out of TS setup and adjust my sound so I can hear you guys.

It was distracting Jim but Liam is right when he said it was funny. Kicking you from team speak was not the only reason I quit the race. You gotta admit this is rather funny...

 

[April Dillon]

To be honest Dan, what's most important to us is that you're mature and reasonable. And it seems that's exactly what you are.
