Hhmm not much people did a lap this week. do you like to change something on the format guys to make it more interesting?
If so feedback is always appreciated

How about limiting the cars to 1 per class?

I know it sounds counterintuitive but hear me out - I did a few laps but didn't know about the 'only shows your best time per class' thing until middle of the week - did what I thought was an absolute melter in the 914, but it was slower than my 906 time so it got ignored - that way we can't be overwriting our old times.

Having 1 TC65, 1 GTC65, 1 GTC76 - all laps will count, plus you could specify cars that might not get an outing that often...

Do we really need to prove the Panteras the fastest any more?

 

[Rhys Gardiner]

You hit me Will? I had no knowledge of it. If you did, it's alright.

 

[Nils Wijk]

Lol indeed, surprise us with another one the comming week. I got some time off from work so I wanna drive till I drop...

Well that was amazing racing last night. I was absolutely beaming .

Had a bad qualy, couldnt even beat my practice time so I gave it up as a bad job and went for a brew 15th of 19.

Well Ill keep this breif since I could go on forever. After a few early exchanges with Paulo and Lee I settled in behind Neil. I was stuck to him for what seemed like an eternity. Im sure that mini is a foot wider than mine. I did at one point pass but after a short excursion to cut the grass I was behind again. Finally after more than 20 laps I got past and stayed past.

I had a few second buffer either side approaching the pit window so concetrated on keeping my lines clean for as long as I could, but it was hard as the time behind Neil had been very draining. I had initially planned to go to around lap 40 in the hopes of having new boots on a light car near the end, but I was losing time so I decided it was time to hit the reset button and dived in around lap 33/34. returned in 9th behind Adrian, Pascal, and Lee.

After many laps behind Adrian I made a move on the inside and got through but not as fast as I'd have like, Adrina came accross into my side with quite a bump so I let him back through on the straight as the pass didnt really have a clean feeling to it. I made the same pass shortly after which went much better

I was now up to 7th which from 15th was very pleasing, but then for added bonus things conspired to give me a shot at more places. (things being Neil on his shredded tires ) with 10 to go were were bunched up, 5 cars nose to tail and set for a thrilling end. I was in a BVM sadwhich with MH and Lee either side, and Bob not far in front. I passed MH shortly after and Bob and Lee's comming together handed me 2 more places. Unlucky lads, so close to the end, a real shame cos the racing was top with you guys.

Rolled home in 5th from 15th, a race that will be firmly planted in the job well done memories box for me.

Here we go with the backslapping! cheers to Lee, Neil, Paulo, and Bob for pushing me all the way in the most gentlemanly of fashions, thus restoring my condfidence in my ability and brightning the outloook for future races :thumb:

Thanks to Andrew for his tireless work once more and RD for hostin gof course

ps. this really was the short version

 

[Lee Downham]

I keep looking at this as its such a fantastically lovely and spicy idea :good: ... I REALLY want to sign up, but don't think I can make it :sad:

When is final decision time Andrew?

Also: as the countdown timer is not working, it might be good to give each track a specific number of laps ... at a guess and purely from memory (with roundings ), 15 mins on each track would mean something like this I think (please correct me where my old fading brain has failed me though eh?):

Detroit 1988 - 8 or 9 laps
Singapore GP 2008 - 9 laps??
Houston 2007 - 15 laps
Monaco 1988 - 10 laps

 

[David Buxton]

Thanks to Andrew and RD. :sorry: it's late.... opps

I need to sleep more then I would not forget to say the most important thing.

practice. only managed to get a few laps in before practice started. even though i now the track layout i was quite of the top 10.

qualify. i used Kierans quali setup and did a 14.5, but somthing still felt wrong and my split times showed that i could do a 14.1 or lower. then the penny dropped i still had my wheel rotation @200deg doh!!!
with only 6mins to go i took the gamble of resetting it and rejoined with 3 mins to go but stuffed up my 1 flying lap (stupid game, why isent it like rFactor

Race. started 18th, 1st 6 laps were pretty intense. after i got past Max and Dan i started closing on Paulo who was having a bad hair day, shame about that love having a battle with old prib.
with dave and neil next in line i tried to close with out pushing to hard, but shortly i had the flying Bob growing in my mirors which spured me on a bit and soon we was a group of 4.
pitted on lap 32 but had neil right behind me and couldnt remember my pitin button, so tried to stay tight in the final turn but stuffed up my pit entry and drove into the back of the safty car oppps, to make things worse i over shot my pit and had to reverse twice, so what should have been a quick tyre change and 12L of fuel turned into a disaster.
with over 10 secs to Bob and only 2 cars behind me i expected the last half to be a bit boring, but then i realised Mtommi must have had a worser pitstop but he was soon on my tail, great fun trying to keep him behind. unfortunatly exiting T1 he got along side not ralising how close he was i took my line for T2 which squeed him onto the grass so i slowed to let him recover and catch back up, so after another few laps of fending him off he got along side going to T2 this time i gave him more room and he edged past me 2 turns later, great battle mate shame i couldnt live with your extra speed.
with 2 laps to go i saw neil was struggling and on the last lap was right on his tail, but the cany wee scott had it coverd and held me off :highfive:

Thanks to Andy for setting up and to RD for hosting :dance2:

 

[Adam Vaughan]

Thank you for the event Andrew, Im not bothered what server i go in and when I asked I was only joking. Its a shame you havnt got motivation to race in your own event but I would be miffed with all the moaners. Guys Andrew sets up the event, he doesnt have to but he does and tries to give everybody a chance to race by setting up 2 servers. If you dont like what server andrew puts you in then dont sign up. But why you would have a problem with that I dont no. Just enjoy it.

Again thanks Andrew and RD and well done to podium and winners.

 

[Andrew Evans]

When is final decision time Andrew?

it's fairly casual, since we're not gonna fill out... i could sign you up and you can join the later races, if you can make them... let me know....

as for the laps, i'll always let the room know how many it's gonna be, in absence of the countdown... nay worries

 

[Rob Goldthorpe]

I can't see where I'm going in the FBMW around Singapore lol.. I'm going too fast to learn it, but meh. Should be a fun nighty night!
