Tyres win the day....Richy see's off jamesy's assault in the latter part of the last lap.

To sers' defense, we couldn't see each other during that race due to the "loading" bug so for both of us, nothing out of the ordinary happend. But seeing it this way is quite awesome honestly.

rhonny running into me from the grid in Spa has the same cause, we couldn't see each other.

Thanks for the cake, but that is Richboy's Evo, not mine ^^
 
Time Report:
Cape Ring inside: 55.3xx
NPS - Tower Knowe Circuit: 1:33.9xx

Took me very long to get the Evora's tail under control, i was even desperate enough to try Sports Mediums up front. The handling i got from that was amazing, just the cornering speed suffered a bit too much for it to be effective enough for me. It might save some time in long runs if spin outs happen too often on Soft/Soft. The Evora truly is the only car i know thats faster by being patient on the accelerator.
 
Awesome pics of all the events from season 3 Omnius.👍👍👍 Is there going to be practice on Thursday?
 
Sure is! I figured it was best to save the photoshoot until TI was complete and 'highlight' a third of the season at a time :)
 
Thanks buraspo, is there no way we could twist your arm into jumping into an Evora for the Club Races? :lol:
:) you know I would like to have bigger gaps between online chmp races because I want to make casual online races too sometimes and racing in some other groups too
1 race in two weeks is ok but bigger gap would be even better , I dont push anyone for that :) , its ok as it is now too

Thats ok, I understand 👍
 
So I'm really confused right now. I Can't enter Omnious' Lounge due to refused entry.

Error message reads:
Entry was refused due to network incompatibility with the room owner [768]

I haven't changed anything from yesterday, so no clue whats happening.

Edit:
NAT2 should do the trick on my side, never acted up like this before...
Guess no racing with you guys for me, sorry everybody. Guess there goes my second spot on the championship :( :( :(

Sorry about the room issues tonight!

Third is right, this hasn't happened before, but then again I was being signed out on PSN earlier this evening, so prehaps it has had something to do with that?

I did reboot both my PS3 and router before 20:00, everyone else was in....I'm sure it wil be fine the next time!
 
Well looking at the Leaderboard, ade needs to watch BAZZA sneaking up while MG222 is my personal target :sly: Joint 7th :)

Even if we get a full grid next week and Richy gets pole and wins, jamesy will still hold top spot, but TIII will be all or nothing for the the one who wants it the most :D 👍

These two races for me were just what the Dr ordered! I've learnt a lot with regards to racing with patience. It paid off in race 1 as MG222 for the 2-3 laps I was following him, looked on the edge, until he finally lost it and I was ready to take the position 👍

Race 2 was all to do with luck from the start, cold tyres mixed with a damp track caused carnage for some of the fast boys, and I managed to avoid any parked cars :sly: to give me a bit of a run with the front runners, and time to settle into my routine.

Nice mid table points for me.

Shame Third couldn't join us, you're still 3rd, so don't worry! Big race next week and jamesy will not be here, so its all still to play for! :)

Special mention has to go to Warrius for 'trying' to make a cameo appearance, but he was suffering the same connection issues as Third...next time prehaps? And to Dowlin for his performance in TII, he started with only 9 points! :eek: Hats off to the man in green 👍

First short test for Sarthe

After almost falling asleep on the wheel/DS3 :dunce:, I managed to pull off a 4:24.low lap. I might actually use the steering wheel for this track to save my thumb from falling off...90min of holding a single button down might not be too enjoyable :grumpy::crazy:

Well it would be the perfect race to start getting used to it since this race will be more about tyres than speed. And since the cars 4WD it makes it easier 👍
