[Herbie]

Don't have much experience with these cars and this track, sorry!

thank you, @Michael Burke could give me advice

 

[Ben Goymer]

Thanks to whoever punted me off on turn 1. Shan't be bothering again if that's the standard of driving.

No, that should absolutely not be the standard of driving in our Racing Clubs or even Leagues. We expect from every driver to respect the rules and we have a system in place to resolve these conflicts:
1) Try to resolve the issue via PM first, if you're still not happy, then
2) File an incident report with a description of the incident and video proof to the event organizer or one of the staff: Rupe Wilson, Simon Knight, Frank van Oeveren, Bram Hengeveld, Chris Stacy or myself.

All sorted.

 

[Andrew Mooney]

It seemed like a good race but I couldn't get into the racing and the car just under steers on two of the fast corners. wasn't helped that I was taken out about three times in the in the first 3 corners.

 

[Włodek Traczyk]

I'm not good but great race, great fun. Thank you all.

 

[Cayd]

@Andrew Mooney , just add more negative camber

And good race at the end @Michael Burke !! (sorry bout the little tap..)

 

[Olly Stevenson]

Good race.

Seemed like there were quite a few incidents and people getting annoyed which was a shame.

I think it's tricky with these two cars as the Scura is able to brake a lot later than the Roadster. I ended up losing a couple of positions from out-braking myself in roadster because i was so nervous about Scura's behind me

Spent most of the race trying to keep ahead of @Henri Sinik
and @Ries Notenboom, but they got me eventually. You both had me sweating

 

[Herbie]

Sorry guys for the start pileup but somebody crashed me right at the end of the qualy and I didn't notice that my wheels are not straight at the start ... really embarassing

Did you have mechanical damage enabled?

 

[Herbie]

also think I caused problems in blue flag situations ...managed to do a 1.16.6 in practice but could not convert to race and was double idiot because ichanged my setup in qualy

 

[Olly Stevenson]

Did you have mechanical damage enabled?

I think he means that his steering wheel wasn't centred when on the grid. Happened to me once when you think it's centred but it's actually a full 360 off centre. Straight in the wall

 

[Herbie]

normaly yes, why?

 

[Georg Siebert]

normaly yes, why?

Was just wondering. Could also be what Olly just said above.

 

[Herbie]

what olly said, exactly

 

[Olivier Boissel]

First RD Race for me !

Good race with clean drivers, good fun.
Grats to winner and podium

Thanks for the organisation.

CU on next event

 

[Herbie]

btw is there noticable mechanical damage already in AC?

 

[Cayd]

Don't think so but not 100% sure...

 

[Akis]

There is engine damage though!
