For some reason I cannot hear nor speak in TeamSpeak. Don't know what the problem is...
So I guess I'm out...?
I don't know how to let you guys know, since you all are already in game...

[EDIT]
I tried my best. This is the first time using TS. Had no option to try it out beforehand.
So have fun, guys. No TS for me it seems, so no racing...

Join anyway, and we will sort it out later for the next time

As expected, some paint was exchanged. I'll wait for complaints before admitting to anything..

Had a wonderful fight with someone i did not have time to memorize who it was (sorry, i know i looked at the name about half of the race but it was wiped off my memory the moment our battle was over...), won that fair and square after quite a bit of defensive driving, just trying to park it in the apex as much as possible and managed to keep it clean.. Until i finally could get a bit of breather, looked at the clock and got spooked: 3 minutes left.. i thought i had half still left, another sign that the battle was intense. I spun in the last corner exit, too much throttle.. and that was the place where i did not have troubles the whole day while others seemed to suffer greatly. 3 minutes left

But overall, very fun race. Did stop for an incident i think i shouldn't, when almost the same happened again, i did not wait. The person responsible knows what i'm talking about.. i was not going to wait again. Also near the start we had a train and accident happened in front of us, car in front practically stopped in the middle of the corner and i hit the rear, did not wait as it really was not my fault, don't think it was anyone's fault but someone just spun in front of us..

Surprised that there weren't more scuffs, the track is quite dangerous. The chicane scared me every single time.

TeamSpeak is not mandatory, it is optional.

Grid is filling up! Stream-YES!

As a side note, my desktop informed me that a major update to Windows 10 was ready to install and the computer was going to restart. Was able to postpone that until the race was over, thank goodness.

Nice battles and good clean racing. Congrats to the podium.

Thanks for streaming and by the way, you pronounce my name correctly.

Ehm no, it isn't optional... look at OP

Sorry Kenny, didn't notice your reply until now...
I was so angry at myself, not have tested these kind of things. So I quit the game and started drinking (coffee!)
I hope I can bump one of you, some time soon, to test this sh*t out. The laps I did make this evening, looked fun (altho I T-boned someone... who was illegally parked... in the middle of the road... sideways...).
So it smells and tastes like more

Hmm.. so it seems. Well, RD has to kick me out since i'm not going to use it. It never used to be and i can't see any reason why it should be. If it is, i want my money back.

You had to start defending yourself and i just got out of DRS range so most likely it would've ended with the gaps we had, we had very steady pace. It was stupid mistake, i got too relax and then immediately after i got scared that i was too relax. It was still so close that even a little slip, one proper lockup would've started the battle again.

TEAMSPEAK IS MANDATORY)

Is this true? If so, can i get my money back from premium since i will not install TS. I have no use for it outside few races and i can't see why it should be mandatory in a club race. If it isn't mandatory, why does it say so and why no one has said anything to me even after few races now? If no one monitors it, it isn't a real rule. If no one monitors it, is it then really mandatory? If i have not brought this up, would've anyone ever said anything about it? So.. is it a rule or is it some remnant of some old times? In a league race teamspeak or some other VOIP is common sense. Also: TS sucks, there are way better options for it.
