Hate is a good motivator, plus it's the emotion I have in any quantity these days.

A small aside to the stewards and video uploaders;

DO NOT DELETE ANYTHING FROM THE SUGARSYNC SHARE. EVER.

If the share runs out of space, contact me. If you are tired of looking at all the files in your divisions' share, contact me. Seriously, don't make any changes, don't remove anything, CONTACT ME. Long story short, I got a PM from someone reporting that everything on the share was gone. Fortunately, you have to delete things twice to actually delete them, but I do not want to have to excoriate anyone over this.

Just and FYI for admins, if you do delete stuff it sugarsync it can be restored. Also the same which dropbox.

I use all 3 and if you want I can get you guys (stewards) 50GB of space on Box (easy as cake) or 20GB of Dropbox (easily) or 30GB+ on Sugarsync (with some mild work) all free. Just PM me and I will get it sorted out.
 
In D1 for practice

Edit: With DS3 I managed 1:31.5 at Trial Mountain with the Countach. I think there was a lot of time still to be had. Wouldn't surprise me if some could get under 1:30

Buttkicker Gamer 2 x2

Decided I needed to get my other BKG2 hooked up. So made some mounts that attach at my rear seats mounting points and now running duals in stereo on the multi output from PS3.

I can feel the difference on left and right for sure. More so when tapping a wall but the rumble strips are exaggerated on the side you hit then with.

Can somebody pm me what cord goes into what. Got the buttkicker gamer 2 today. Looks awesome. I have it set up in the back of my playseat with a socket there.

And here I thought I was decently fast there with this combo.

Gee, where did you get that idea? LOL:tup:
ps, I found that the left side should have left hand thread as it loosens up and after awhile won't keep tight for 10 min.

Congrats to you all !!!

I am looking forward to being part of that club.
 
I just wanted to get this out there in case there is a OCD refresh soon. I know this very well could be changed if there are any complaints against me.

But if all things are clear for me, I am picking the '74 Lamborghini Countach LP400 from the OCD.

I just can't decide on the track, I think I have it narrowed down to 2 though...

Snails! We are going to Cape Ring With these honda lm cars!

Danget..double post...whoops my bad..

Trial Mountain for Prize A Track pick. I really wanted to do Eiger Norwand Short Track, but I figured another airborne track wouldn't be good, and it is a bit easier to pass at Trail Mountain. That Lambo sure is fun at Eiger though...

Thanks for making your Prize A and Prize B selections!

The August 4th lineup has been posted!! :gtpflag:

Been planned since last winter. ;) bought the other in Feb. Just finally got it going. LoL
 
Finished reviewing all complaints earlier. I was surprised that only 2 Stewards were on each complaint so far.

We could use another set or two of eyes to look things over.

What do you have hooked up for sound now? Headset? Receiver? TV? Optical or RCA's?

Very cool setup, Owens! I'll definitely get another ButtKicker Gamer 2 if I ever upgrade my seat. Right now, I've got the office chair setup. :)

Congrats, Ph1sher! Can you please confirm that you used your exclusive S.N.A.I.L. discount and got free shipping?

I have reviewed all incidents for the week in the stewards area. Other stewards, please do the same so we can get this week finished quickly.

Yes please!

However, there's not a huge rush since none of the prize winners had any incidents reported.

Thank you, JLBowler and Handlebar, for jumping on these quickly. Your reports have been tabulated and am awaiting further reviews before publishing the summary for the week.

Thanks to Owensracing for the extraordinarily cool Avatars!
 
Well I know people have been saying they would like higher pp cars and I think having an event that does that would help suppress the hearsay about not getting a lot of fast cars on Sunday nights. This is what I'm trying to solve. If people want to drive fast cars, I want to try to get a solution for it!

This is what I was trying to base my idea off of!

We do some big power cars on Thursday. However it's all strictly Nurb Nord.

-----------

Adding my other BKG2 and getting some seat time tonight was great. NASCAR Oval race I would tap the outside wall and feel it on the right side. That was really cool.

The excitement has me wanting to get the pucks installed and Receiver hooked up. Clean up all my wires and so a nice photo shoot. ;)

I turned the BKG2's 180 and now the transducer sit out back and hangs behind the seat some. Looks like a set of duals....kinda. Anyway it looks cool. LoL

So this weekend, I may get my crap together and finish the tactiles. Possible move the iRacing machine over and give that a go. Just not excited. Afraid it will kill GT for me. :/

this is a request for a Honda s2000 lm race car.
I have one but I couldent use it last sunday because its been "tuned". but everything on it is stock and same hp/pp spec as the front page shows. all it has is a adjustable lsd which I cant change.
I someone can help cheers.
 
Even though you may have not changed it, go in to the tranny settings and reset to default and try it again.
 
Should be about 7 laps at Trial Mountain (factoring in what D1 can do).


Cape Ring will be 4 laps, with an outside chance of 5 laps.

On Cape Ring, the jump is into the Ring, not from the ring to the hillside, btw.

My pics are pretty pedestrian, but it's a start.

Good Luck! Keep it in the short grass:)

And watch out for those damn gophers and crazy grounds keepers!

Been meaning to do this since Sunday afternoon, where does the time go?

Thanks crash and rally, short grass mostly used and gophers and groundskeepers avoided :)

My brothers club championship is a three day tournament. He opened with a 42 on the front nine and we were both in shock. We had a little chat walking to the tenth tee, lot's of golf left, let's get er done. And he did, shot 33 on the back, three shots off the lead 👍

Saturday was a much more even keel kind of day. Started it off with another chat, told him about a line from a racing book I've read a few times :D It's not always the most talented person that wins, but the one who refuses to lose. He shot 36 - 36 for a one stroke lead, nice!

Sunday was an up and down kind of day, for everyone, but my brother kept it together. He shot 76 for a one stroke win 👍 This is his 7th time hoisting the trophy, second on the clubs all time list, pretty proud of him!

:cheers:

EDIT: Found this in the D4 Results from Sunday in the Notes column, hilarious:

Poor race results and demeanor due to clogging of Canuter valve and low levels of blinker fluid.

👍

Hi guys, I'm back for the next 3 sunday nights, a last hurrah before I my university session starts.

I would need the S2000, could someone send it to me please ? :)
 
:lol::lol: I hate it when the Canuter valve gets clogged. Send the FNG out for some Blinker Fluid. And while he's out there tell him to pick up a bucket of prop wash and a sky hook, an not to forget the frozen grapes for the scotch. :sly: ;) :D

Excellent! Glad you got the discount and free shipping because it's a sweet deal! Let us know once you get it all set up or better yet post a pic! :D

Thanks to the stewards who've reviewed this week's incidents so far! For those that haven't gotten to them yet, please don't take too long because last Sunday was the last night of the July Season and we can't determine the final standings until all penalties have been applied.

Thanks to Owensracing for the extraordinarily cool Avatars!

Indeed! They're friggin' awesome! Although your avatar looks like my avatar's worst nightmare! (You have to see TURBO to know what I'm talking about.. There are these crows that swoop down from the sky and cause havoc on the snail community, so I can only imagine the amount of damage a dragon would do.. :lol:)

Well done to you both! Was this your (ca)nucklehead brother or a not so knuckleheaded one? :sly:
 

That only serves to make me more nervous about this combo. We shall see tonight...

That said, I may not be racing on Sunday. I'm going camping this weekend and I don't know what the scene is going to be come Sunday.
