Only six hours of time trialing left for this weeks combo. Is there someone "just" ahead of you that you want to catch, someone in the hunt to take your position, go for it now! Laps not completed by 2400 GMT will not be allowed [server will be shut down]

Well, I joined with only 27 minutes to practice without any prior testing with the Minis here . I was fast right off the bat, but we had a ton of fast guys in this one so I feared my place as top dog was in jeopardy . snatched pole, which I think means I have gotten pole for everything this week ! Had a lot of close fighting for the early half of the race, which was awesome, but after time in the pits, I pulled out a big gap . However, Radek was closing as it was scary! But I still won !

Oh, and also I would have gotten there much earlier to practice, but my french chief engineer (Simon) and I got a little back tracked... He insists upon calling me Josef

Disclaimer: I am not Josef, and I do not have a French engineer. These are two IndyCar drivers, but I thought this would be funny to post

I really enjoyed that. Had a good battle with Sam after both of us had hit trouble, and I was a bit sad when he crashed late on because we were shaping up to resume it late on.

Got caught out by the right hand side tyres wearing quicker than the others which caused a spin (then the reverse once I'd changed them), but I managed to keep it out of the wall, so I'm pleased with that. Now to work on my speed...

Second race with RaceDepartment today running the very fun minis. A terrible qualify saw me placed on the starting grid in 14th place. Started a little sloppy but managed to make my way into 12th thru 5 and 6. Had slipped into 11th thru turn 8 when someone else went wide. Got tapped coming to 12 sending me spinning. Was going to have to pit but as rejoining the track got clipped ripping off the front of the car. For my second appearance race over on lap 2, not exactly how I wanted the day to go...again.

As this is only my second appearance at Race Department I tried not to get steamed about the contact but after review well. I'm new here and don't want to ruffle any feathers so some comments would be welcome.

 

[Radek Bialek]

exactly 3 weeks ago i got racing wheel so i still learning and im faster week after week. Second place 3sec behind Nelson. i did funny mistake L1 T3 i was out from the track cold tires too much fuel.

 

[Sam Hill]

@Campbell Wallis Great race man! Hate the minis so much though. Understeering like crazy. Gutted about the spin at the end but a good fight or 12th until then

 

[Dennis Phelan]

@Robert Covey
Consider a 24 hour cooling off period and then:

Club racing is just for fun but it's not fun when you've been taken advantage of. We expect all drivers to know the rules:
http://www.racedepartment.com/threads/rules.10978/
and abide by them. Mistakes are made, accidents happen but careless and aggressive driving are not welcome here.

@Sam Hill , understeer is easily taken out of a Mini

Thanks for the response Dennis. I appologize if I should not have posted it here as I said don't want to ruffle feathers. I wasn't actually looking to make a report more trying to evaluate if it was something I should be steamed about or if its just one of those things that happens when racing. Still fairly new to sim racing and edicate.

 

[Dennis Phelan]

@Robert Covey , I understand. It's good to bring this up with so many newer drivers coming around. Many times a knock off the racing line or the track get's away with a "sorry" or, "I didn't know I hit you so hard" and that's bad. The rule to wait is to keep people from becoming to hard driving in a fun event. Better a 10 second wait and a loss of a few places than to have a trip to "Simberia" for 7 days or more. The real benefit is that a driver, instead of creating a situation should be choosing carefully and letting the other slower driver make a mistake to gain the position giving both a chance to "fight"!

I'm not saying don't race! I'm saying, "If you choose to race hard, be ready to be the man when it gets out of control. That's whether it was accidental or by being too aggressive.

Note also that the 24 hour cool off gives you a chance to PM/chat with the other driver about it so that he knowswhat happened. If it can't be worked out, Report!

 

[Dennis Phelan]

One hour, fifteen minutes left to get your laps in!
I'll pull times and post them as soon after as I can, beer is in my future, please be patient

 

[Vaughn Stegeman]

wait WHAT? .. I'm glad the Calendar is one of my pinned tabs, or I may have never noticed this.
I may have to try this next week. Too cool =]

 

[Dennis Phelan]

The results are in, read them and weep!

Thanks to all that put in the time, the laps the effort to learn this fun track/course/road!
Congratulations to the fastest of all Peter Ell and the winner of the slower car class Radek Bialek

 

[Sam Hill]

@Dennis Phelan I spent all day trying! :-L everything that should have worked made it really skittish. Might b down to my driving too. I'm better in open wheeler and prototypes than tin tops

 

[Martin Samohod]

Sorryyy guyysss,
I couldn´t make it this time, i gootaa do somee call of dutyy haha that was arranged a couple of dayyys beforeee racing.

I´ll do my best for next racing.

Hopping see u all ther!

 

[Arunas]

Great track and car combo! Thank You Dennis

P.S. Something is wrong with 2nd and 3rd Volvo time alignment

 

[Arunas]

Another great combo!
Just I think there's a little problem, because you can use pit lane to gain speed for first lap.. Or am I wrong?
