Eric, your slacking. :tongue: You got your classes twisted. The title says Radicals while the description says Formula Masters.

If you don't sign up for an event, you waive your rights to any and all minutia observed................

:biggrin:

Eric Nelson · Mar 30, 2010

See your free to comment til blue in the face here! ha ha ha

I think it is Barber actually but its called Birmingham now?

Ivo Simons · Mar 30, 2010

Jump in Richard.

Eric Nelson · Mar 30, 2010

OK guys here's another request from the home office.

Go out and scout up a custom skin your going to use for this event and post a link here by Sunday Night. We need to start getting some variety in the looks of the events and we have too many drivers now to run off the stock materials.

There are many great skins here at RD DOWNLOADS or No Grip Racing also has a nice library!

Git r dun!

Eric Nelson · Mar 30, 2010

no an event will NEVER be postponed. YOu sign up to run, you are expected to run unless a real life problem makes it impossible to get in the event.

Signing up then bailing out repeatedly is bad behavior.....:tongue:

Barry Morse · Mar 30, 2010

2.55 any help with a setup please i really need some

Lee Downham · Mar 30, 2010

Fandamnit ... I asks for it, and I gets it ... but then the rubbish part - I am not 100% I can make it next week ... got my brother and his family here for next coupla weeks so put me in as a "he really really wants to race and will do what he can to make it with 90% certainty" will you ;-))

EDIT ... 42ºC sounds like its gonna be like driving in the rain after a couple of laps :eek: ... you tried this out already Eric? Not questioning your judgement just kinda curious what it does the the tyres, and since I have never tried to mess with the weather files for a dedi server, I got no way of finding out for myself till next week :wink:

WE have been driving in those conditions with the F1 for a while

You might need more than just 1 pit stop

Dave Stephenson · Mar 30, 2010

can you do a weather file please Eric?

Lee Downham · Mar 30, 2010

F1 has hard tyre compounds too ... think that weather file would be a bonus to see just how many single compound tyres a man can go through in 20 laps round here

Stefan Werner · Mar 30, 2010

Barber is in Brimingham, but it is confusing. I'll download the track and have a look here in a bit. I know Barber pretty well. :smile:

Edit: From the description for the download. Doh!

"The Barber Motorsports Park is a large multi-purpose racing facility on a 740 acre (300 hectare) site in Birmingham, Alabama. The site, which is located on the eastern fringes of the city, near Leeds, features a 2.3 mile road track with 16 turns, viewable from several naturally wooded or grass-covered banks. The track has hosted numerous motorsport races including Grand Am Cup and Vintage Racing Series events, and serves as the home of the "Porsche Driving Experience"."

Eric Estes · Mar 30, 2010

Sign me up, please.

Michael van Scheppingen · Mar 30, 2010

\o/ Yay! that was some really nice wet racing as such.

Bjorn de Haas · Mar 30, 2010

in race 1 i hit the wall at eau rouge
in race 2 i had a reasonable race until richard trange who had flat tire or broken suspension went off and came back on the RACING LINE and i had to avoid him. which cost me my race
Come on peeps if you have a problem dont wack the car on the RACING LINE ... for the moment im done with racing to be honoust. Those club races are getting more and more wreckraces

thanks RD for hosting

Jelle van der Knaap · Mar 30, 2010

Great fun both races! Thanks RD

Ross Balfour · Mar 30, 2010

Got to agree with Bjorn, I'm not witnessing the racing I was used to when I joined RD.

Qually - 17th (DOH!)

Disaster! Kept making mistakes and when I was finally on a good lap (+2.5 which would of put me 6th) the game went next session when I was on the last corner.

Race 1 - 4th

Got a great start and was very careful not to tap anyone who got a bad start. With all the mass chaos I jumped to 6th. I tapped into Jay (Really Sorry!) and was up to 5th. I was surpringly catching the leaders and caught Richard Trange and was up to 4th. I tried my best to catch David but he was too fast for me. I settled for 4th.

Race 2 - 12th (DOH! X2)

Well, what can I say. I was up to 3rd after a good start and set about Richard and Peter for the lead. I caught Peter and tapped him slightly to get passed (sorry) but I got a few taps back so It was all good typical touring car racing. I soon got passed by David and was 3rd. But after David made and error I passed Richard and David and took the lead into the last corner. However this didnt last long as Simon shunted me off, and I was down to 10th (He waited) I got suspension trouble which made the car undriveable in heavy rain conditions. I made lots of mistakes and finished 12th, not very happy with myself. I also didnt like some of the crashes and comments on chat. At the end of the day its a club race and nothing serious. I think some guys forgot that.

Thanks to Ivo and to RD for this. Cant wait for next week's event!
