AC BTCC Winter Testing @ Oran Park - Sunday 13th November 2022

[Medilloni]

What an absolute blast, loved that, 1st race I've no idea how I went from last to 3rd.... but I'll take it

2nd race was awesome, soooo close - will check the replay but leading was intense against a Volvo; couple of nudges then a big one, facing the wrong way and quit - no blame on the other driver as far as I'm concerned, I was missing brake points 'cos of a runny eye (yeh, bad excuse ), made worse trying to wipe it with a sweaty glove, doh. Quit at that point 'cos I was pointing the wrong way and would have prob hit someone trying to re-join.

Thanks to all, great racing on a very difficult track.

Couple of thoughts: The bimmer (imo) couldn't go near a kerb (the big one on exit through the bridge in particular), whereas the fwd could smash them in comparison. So sadly, as much as I love the BMW, it'll be fwd next time

Sorry again for that bump into T1 Race 1 John. Got caught out a little by your braking

No problem Robert, two very different cars, it's hard to judge the differences

 

[SimApprentice21]

Oh and sorry to player69 on our crash in race 2, I lost the car for the 1000th time and that slide on the grass was uncontrollable

No Problem,I was demoralized before anyway.the race was over before you smashed into me, was very very unexpected btw. Lol.

 

[SimApprentice21]

I also must say these cars, at least the bmw, feel great. I would also agree with a btcc championsship

 

[Partick Eaton]

Great fun. John it was I who bumbed you in race 2. We had a great battle going. I waited for you but you had dropped out.

My first win and second place finishes!

Thanks for setting this up Brian. Great racing all.

Thank to all for racing!

Spent the first race getting up to speed. The second one was very enjoyable, pushed all the way to the end by Richard.

Congrats to @Partick Eaton for his first win and well done to Robert for coming out on top in race 2!

See you on the next one!

Congrats on the win Pat, you were definitely on it! No stopping you now unfortunately No worries about the bump, one of those things - that's the prob with the bimmer, one nudge and it's over, with fwd you can keep your foot in

Polite request: Does anyone have the results for Simresults.net ? I'd be very grateful if someone has the Q times and fastest race lap (per car preferably)

I unfortunately sat in the pits waffling for too long and it rolled over to the next loop.
Realise now I can run future races not on loop mode to solve the sim results problem.

I don't have them, sorry. Actually I quit. Yesterday for me it was just a test for the upcoming championship, especially for discarding the Primera
So don't you think I'm as clumsy as last night !! Haha

But anyway, I'd say you can get the logs from the server, right? After every session, a log should be saved into the dedicated folder (from my old days, I think the folder was called 'logs').

Cheers Dani!

Congrats to @Partick Eaton for the overall win

That's weird, results show race one is race two, race two is race one (viewing positions) Thank you @Dani Martinez(Chechum)

And I've got to ask, who is player69?

 

[Dani Martinez(Chechum)]

You're welcome guys.
Yesterday I realized BTCC are not only FWD. I don't know why, but I thought they were all FWD and that's why I had kind of a bad idea of them. I guess I was confused with other tourism cars.
But I liked very much driving Primera (despite its difficulty for being competitive) and the BMW

Player69 is Arnold Koch @SimApprentice21 (he said on chat during the event that he didn't know why his name wasn't showing up correctly)
