[Kevin Ascher]

i wasnt there tonight.

well i really have a good explnation for that.
the uncle of a very good friend of mine has fallen off the first floor today.
his brain stopped working when he hit the ground.
he is clinically dead now.
and my friend called me and asked if i could come over and be with her and support her and without a moment of thinking or hesitation i did and just came back home now after she had gotten some medicamentation to calm down.
still, when i was at her place i tried calling both ross and christophe berton to report my absence but both didnt answer my calls.


you dont believe this story?
from all my heart i can tell you it is true.
i would never ever make up a soty like that.

i am so down and confused i could jump off my houses' roof.

 

[Kyle Williams]

I got taken out twice and Seans PC crashed 5 mins after he took over, all in all a great race.

 

[Mikael Larsson]

Same as...and same as...well.. my computer crashed twice during practice. But the third time all went fine for about 1h20 into the race, then all disappeared again
Othwerwise a really fun race

 

[Bram Hengeveld]

Really disturbing that people still use headlights during the day while it gives a use FPS drop on some machines.

Please dont use headlight unless you need them during the night

 

[Tim Hogendoorn]

Was a fun race, Ben Tusting took over after one hour!
I hope he's doing good!

You also spun during the formation lap Kyle, you should have moved to the back of the grid.....:quiet:

I was hit from behind pretty hard when everyone in front stopped, don't see why i should goto the back for someone elses mistake.

Ah ,that explained the huge dent in the back of your car

[Mart Välja]

My wheel decided it is fun to lose all its FF right in the start...though it was interesting to drive, it was also dangerous to me and others. So I quit after 1 lap. Sad...

I don't know who it was, so cant file a complaint.

Check the replay?

 

[Berkem Ceylan]

This is pure fun. I had a great time for nearly 1.5 hours but then my back started to hurt really bad..So I drove into pits.. Thanks all.. I'm already looking forward to next one.

 

[Kyle Williams]

Check the replay?

replays cause rfactor to stutter for me so have to have them off.

I have to back up this story, Kevin really isnt in a happy mood, which is a shame to see. He really is sad and was in no from to race, hope this is understood he has explained to me all the facts and its 100% legit. Hope this can be accepted...

 

[Bram Hengeveld]

Ofcourse its accepted Ross, and it wasnt aimed to Kev, who is always here. But some people are bringing their membership in jeopardy for not showing up multiple times now.

 

[Simon Melhuish]

Running 3rd in GT1 and slowly gaining on 2nd when my router rebooted

 

[Mark A Warmington]

why dont you bookmark the server so it easier to find !!

Thanks but you've missed the point of my problem. Bookmarking the server makes no difference if matchmaker won't populate the lobby. There is nothing to connect to. It isn't that I can't find the RD server, there are no servers to connect to. Works fine all day long and then does this just before the race. This isn't the first time and it hasn't rectified itself yet.

 

[Ben Tusting]

was a very lonely race.

Got spun by a LMP1 car just after I took control of the car.

I finished 3rd in my class though

Grats to the winners :good:

Amazing race for me if slightly off the ultimate front pace,could just about hang on with the front two after an epic 4 or 5 lap scrap to get my 3rd place sorted,good fun,opted to start with 100L and see what happens and pitted with about 10L in the tank and no tyres change and came out well ahead in the lead now (happy days)...but then noticed i had a 10sec S&G most likely for speeding on pit entry (sad days)....
Took my S&G and got on with it and ran my 2nd stint of fuel down and pitted when tyres became a serious issue and after the other pitted i started creeping up on Rauno in the lead,i got so carried away with this good reel in i forgot to keep check on my fuel and drove past pits then looked at my fuel along pit straight.....2L/0laps it said ,would have been genius timing but instead it was a futile attempt to get round again...didnt happen,it died just before Bridge,race over.
I would have liked to have seen how that last stint panned out,i think with some tyres bravado maybe 2nd place was on offer...was 1st possilbe? :// ....i will never know .
Congrats all podiums and bigger Congrats all finishers :good:.
Thank You Bram and RD :good:
