You're going to be dead tired by the end of this thing.

Don't really gaf. Phish want's Snail beat, I'll make it happen. Mic just passed them. They're either a lap behind or 2 now.

3 hours was easy. I just need to get my brain refreshed so i can think about how we can fill the final stints.

SO.MUCH.FUN


Edit:
I hope it was lag, but i did get rear ended twice after making a pass. Cost me some time, but it probably didnt end up costing us due to the red flag. I got in The pits just as the track closed. I was lucky.

If Dolph could take that 0900 - 1200 spot, we'd have it made. Btw, do you mind taking the next stint after Hector?

 

[Dolph Drago]

Heard anything from Nemo? I just got home and just logged onto PSN. I have no messages from him here or on my PS3.

He's in the middle of a 24hour solo run.

Though so far we only have 3 drivers, so if you step in as a #4, I think it'd be within the rules.

Holy moley!

I just left a message in our conversation. Are you able to run the 9-12 stint? Since I'm not friends with him, I wouldn't be able to get in his room.

Uh, no one is. I work tomorrow and Mic has a b-day to wake up for. Hector could do a 6 hour stint, but I'm guessing he'd rather not. I'll try to make it, bit I've put 6 hours in already, and I'll be doing another 3 soonish.

 

[Dolph Drago]

Dang. Just wish I had more of a heads up. Unfortunately drivers having to pull out at the last minute doesn't leave any time to prepare. I knew from the get-go if I was racing, I would only be able to do a late Saturday stint, which wasn't going to be very helpful. Therefore I wasn't on the driver's list. Had we only known...Oh well.

 

[micantony]

I dont understand this message.

Hector has 2 hours left on his stint right?

Then at 9pm we have a driver change. The only way dolph could get in is if he joined just before hector left, but it would have to be prearranged and then we hope he didnt get a disconnect, because he wouldnt be able to rejoin.
Personally, i think its too late to do that at this point as we would want to shoot that idea by AJ first.

Just getting my bearings here.

What is it you want bionic? I can run the 9pm stint or the midnight one. Either is fine with me. Have we figured out the plan for the final 2 stints yet? Hector has one, but we need the other filled.

 

[BionicDerp]

I talked to Phish. He's got something going on in the family, so he can't come.

 

[micantony]

If i can do the 9pm one and the final at 6am, can you do the midnight to 3am? Any chance?

I'm not saying i can do both yet, but if i could???

I guess I'll take the next one, you get the one after me, I'll try to get some shuteye and be up for the open slot and do my best and then leave the rest to Hector. Looks like I'm doing 12 of the 24 hours.

 

[BionicDerp]

Yeah, I could get the one in the middle. That's the one with Phish's name on it, right?

 

[micantony]

You tell me? You want the next one and then try to get up for 6am? (7am your time i think)


-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Or do you want the 2nd one starting at midnight edt (1am your time i think)

In which case i would do the next one and try to get up at 6am.
But i'm not promising...


In either case it sounds like we want hector to take stint #7 right?

 

[BionicDerp]

You tell me? You want the next one and then try to get up for 6am? (5am your time i think)

Yeah, I can take the second one. You could talk to Hector about switching him to the 6AM slot and you doing the later one, but Idk what your morning schedule is like.

 

[micantony]

Updated my times, i think you are 1 hour later than us right? I had it backwards

 

[micantony]

So you can do the 12:00-3:10am slot?

I cant do the 3am slot, no way, must sleep....

 

[BionicDerp]

Updated my times, i think you are 1 hour later than us right? I had it backwards

Yeah. I finished at 7 my time, hector will finish at 10, you'll finish at 1, and I'll finish at four, and I get to sleep to be awake enough for work the next day.

So you can do the 12:00-3:10am slot?

I cant do the 3am slot, no way, must sleep....

Yes. And if you switch with Hector for the last spot, you'll get a nice 6 hours in between.

 

[micantony]

Well, if i dont wake up in time for the final stint, noone can be pissed! We never had that xtra slot filled anyway. So we'll just see what happens...

Talk to Hector about it when you've finished the next round. 👍

By the way, shift at 6250-6500. I was watching you use more fuel than needed with no gain in power. It's a mid range car, remember?

 

[micantony]

I cant get myself to shift that early. It's a rhythm/sound thing with me. Fuel is negligible anyway since i'm not trying to do 13 lap stints.

I had a rough go with all the damage and i was being very conservative since i never practiced with REAL grip. My main focus was staying on track and turning consistent, safe laps.

Yeah, I was more concerned with getting efficiency AND speed. I was running 48's at night.

 

[micantony]

Wow. I wish i could do 48's at night. I'm 2-3 seconds slower than you.

The curbs are your friend.

 

[micantony]

Yeah, i dont know what the decided track limits are, so i just stayed within the white lines as best i could.

How wide are we allowed at tet rouge?

And the ford chicanes?

 

[BionicDerp]

Yeah, i dont know what the decided track limits are, so i just stayed within the white lines as best i could.

It's two wheels within curbs/white lines, so as long as the inside tires are in contact with the boundaries, it's clean. The rules are also a little more lenient at night (1 car width)? But it's still fastest most of the time to keep inside them.

40 minutes. Be ready.

 

[micantony]

See my edit

 

[BionicDerp]

See my edit

Just go with two wheels in and try to take the chicanes in as straight lines as possible.


(I have no idea what the names of the corners are. )

 

[micantony]

The right hander going onto the long straight. I noticed many drivers are going way past the curb into and beyond the blue area to maintain speed. Allowed?
