[Nuno Rodrigues]

a maybe for me, as im going to do all the efforts to attend it. Sorry about this maybe situation..

 

[Nelson Ullinskey]

Really cool video uploaded by Tom Coronel a few hours ago of this circuit:

 

[Kevin Bradley]

Hi guys,

I'm new around here. Thinking of joining up for some of your Race 07 club races (starting with tomorrow's event).

Am I right in thinking that as it's Minis at Macau (ie. standard game content), then I should be able to join in without downloading any mods at this stage?

I currently have a 'plain install' of Race 07 and all the official addons (Evo, Race injection, Race On etc).

Sorry for my newbie question!

Many thanks

Kevin

 

[H34d5h07]

LOL! I like how the video shows "overtaking impossible" in the big thumbnail

 

[Nelson Ullinskey]

Yes, you should be able to race tomorrow

 

[Björn]

A few laps from last time, hopefully it'll be that much of a crowd again

 

[Kevin Bradley]

Excellent! Thanks Nelson.

See you guys on the track tomorrow.

Kevin

 

[Dennis Phelan]

Yeah, we do it just like they do

 

[Dennis Phelan]

Wow, I made it through the first three corners in that video!
@Kevin Bradley Glad to have you come aboard, I think you'll like racing with us. Notice in the vid, many of us have skins as we run this class every week and it makes us easy to find as individuals. No need for you to rush out and make a skin, even though Bjorn has made it easy for you[look here]. But do pick up the most recent skin pack [here] and enjoy the racing and pit stop!

 

[Loyd Cooper]

Sign me up!

 

[Bob Miley]

Sign me up please Dennis. Will just be trying to finish damage free round here for once.

Some of you know from being on TS Tuesday that next week's track is Abu Dhabi. Some have already downloaded the track from our resources and if you have you must download again if you did it before the track was updated yesterday! Some may have seen a server set up for Tuesdays race already as well.

I want your input as to which car we should be driving. Comments are welcome but the choice will be by the highest vote received by a car. I've just concluded testing on my own but I won't comment and will wait to vote .

 

[Björn]

My vote's in for FRR - they were a blast (and attracted quite a crowd) at Hockenheim and thanks to a poor start and that curb, I'm still having unfinished business with these

 

[H34d5h07]

This must be the first track ever, that I have never had the pleasure to drive on.
However. I still know it pretty well, thanks to Blancpain and various GT events from YouTube.

Since I am -9000 (yes, that's right, it's a minus ) fan to open wheelers,
I am not to keen to even test this combo.
But, you never know. Sometimes you get surprised when you least expect it
So, I will DL the track, and test it out with the various cars, and then make up my mind, come back and give my vote

 

[JeffL]

Thanks for your help guys, wasn't a successful race for me on my first attempt at 07, but I got a lot of questions answered and hopefully got the bugs worked out for next week. See ya then

 

[Nelson Ullinskey]

May we have a GT option?

 

[Dennis Phelan]

 

[H34d5h07]

Must say I agree with Nelson

My game crashed when I took the checkered flag.
Apparently it didn't like going from 4th gear to 1st, which I always do just for giggles

These cars are really fun to drive, but to be honest, I have no idea how to treat them.
Closest I can think off is an F1 car.

I went with pretty much the standard set-up, with a few adjustments to the rear wing,
gear box, tire pressure, and break pressure.

Overall the car was okay, but extremely unstable during braking.
During the two races, I were terrified every single time I had to break.

Race 1:
Got a somewhat decent start, and manage to take the lead thanks to drafting.
But it didn't take long until @Nelson Ullinskey were breathing down my neck, and caused nervousness.
I think on lap 2 or 3, my biggest fear came true, and during braking at T3, my car got little sideways
and Nelson passed me. I tried to stick with him, but you know, Alien is an Alien.

Close to the end, I managed to pick up some speed, and closed the gap by 2 seconds.
From 10 seconds to 8, but why bother. Since Nelson cheated and used Nos

Race 2.
Again, a decent start, but unstable car is unstable, so @Dennis Phelan were able to pass
a few corners later. I mange to hang on to him for a few laps, until he made a mistake,
and I could pass. I started to celebrate and got cocky. But you know what?
After few laps, Nelson.... There he was again, using Nos.

But this time I wasn't going to be a good dog and just roll over.
I defended hard, but still on a fair level. Of course, I lost speed thanks to this.
I slapped myself in the face and said "stop looking in the mirror" and it worked for a while,
until Nelson once again cheated, and used Nos, and were once breathing down my neck.
I thought a few times that he was going to pass, since we were side by side a few times.
But i managed to hold him off, and could take checkered flag.

Thank you for an epic fight Nelson, and thank you Dennis for this event.

Small crowd, but that still was some great racing

Managed to shave off some more time compared to TT'ing on the weekend throughout the practice sessions.. With qualifying coming closer, I once again opted for less fuel as passing here is.. complicated? Managed to snatch pole off of Nelson who was on race fuel and not quite getting in a perfect lap

Started fairly well, but so did the rest.. Daniel must've spent some time in the wind channel as he gained so much drafting and thus went by easily - next up was Nelson, which put me into P3...

...up until the first hairpin passage, anyway - I clipped the inside barrier and spun around to let Dennis and Damo through. Regained control and set off to hunt down Damo in P4.

Both he and Dennis didn't put up much of a fight.. Unfortunately, I then decided I could go for some shaky lines and Dennis was past me again!

This time, he put up quite a defense and we got a nice battle going until, going into T1, he clipped a barrier and bumped into my Radical, sending the both of us for a short spin - nothing damaged, though

Afterwards, I had a fairly relaxed ride home to take P3.



Starting fairly well into race #2, as well, I got by Damo but once more, Daniel was up to some slipstream action and got by before T3 while Dennis got himself into P1. Hunting the both of them down, Nelson, who was directly behind me, touched a wall and bumped off into me - we both got back into action pretty fast, though (and, once again, no damage)

We got by Damo again and tried to catch up with Daniel and Dennis - with the latter spinning out, we got into 2nd and 3rd position, very close, nice racing... up until I imitated Dennis' maneuver and lost direct contact to Nelson, who then proceeded to hunt Daniel.

Thanks for racing, everyone, see you next time!
