Feel free to discuss the race in this thread, as long as it is within the forum rules.

We must rerun the race!! Waited the whole week for the race, practiced, did everything carefully, and what have we here? The race was horrible, a total catasthrope, a server acting like a cruise server! I mean, the qualifying got all messed up because batches didn't work, then when we start the race, Ari in front of me stays in his grid and I spin. Then during the race lots of drivers retire, spin and crash, me as one of them. Horrible race! We should rerun it! I'm very disappointed!!

I guess quite nobody was satisfied with the results. Looks like my 1st race has totally gone underground.

Wrong Randomness, i won grid 2 by 52 seconds.
Sad i didn't get into Grid 1 but i won in Grid 2 so boom.

The first race and a bad start. A full day of bad connections. Half a second bad Q, switches many times my connection so I could not even better. I HOPE THAT WILL BE BETTER NEXT TIME.

lol, 52 seconds! Isn't it reason enough why the race was so .....'d up? In fact, I couldn't have called it a race.

Tume · Apr 7, 2012

The race was absolutely messed up!! I'm not satisfied at all.

Very very bad for grid 2 i think, so much confusion, first no qual, then qual, and then after not?
When we did the first formation lap i lagged evil and ended in pit, when i rejoined i was DQ.

I was really looking forward to this first race, and then it was ended before it ever started for me :/

Well hope everything is better for the next race

Happy driving guys!

If all races will be like this, I'll leave FSR, and no moneyback's allowed? Great, just great.

Adam Hartwell · Apr 7, 2012

Mate stop complaining, the only reason i won by the gap is because of my strategy which got me a gap back to third, and because the leader had an engine failure, it was a decent race in my opinion.

Tume · Apr 7, 2012

You wouldn't have said so if you were me...

I'm not satisfied at all.

Tume · Apr 7, 2012

I demand to have my losed time back!

David Dominguez · Apr 7, 2012

My first race ever in FSR ended in the first laps with a game bug, I couldn't remove a 10s stop-and-go penalty even pitting 3 times, and finally was DQ. I'm sure everything will go fine next time

The next race is better to be a success!

Ivo Simons · Apr 7, 2012

Yeah we know now...

Tume · Apr 7, 2012

Frustrated due to the fact I practiced hard and then everything just got messed up. Damn it!

Tume · Apr 7, 2012

Guess I just have to start practicing onto the Malaysian GP.

RandomnessInside, will you please shut up. You don't need to post about 12 times about how your race didn't go to plan. How about you read rules and be a professional sim racer.
