I missed out last night. My own fault, home late and burnt :(

I got the cars broken in though, but no seat time for me.
 
dang, got disconnected :(

maybe my PS3 is telling me to call it a night, thanks for letting me have a go with you guys, it was fun....and sorry to anyone I collected, haven't done the online thing before and was trying to get out of the way as quick as possible :crazy:

No worries about getting disconnected. Thanks for joining us in the first place? Are you going to be about to participate in league night on Sunday?
 
Well again, had a blast last Sunday. I think I'll be around this Sunday night but if that changes I'll let you all know.

For those who got a good laugh at my blue tooth headset troubles, I'm happy to say I have another one, and it's on the "Approved List" of headsets. Haven't tried it yet, but will on Sunday. Look forward to it.

Now what do we do for comic relief Sunday night :lol:

Unfortunately no, I have prior commitments on Sunday nights but I'll try to make most Wednesdays, lol
 
i just thought i should let you know that im not going to be racing this sunday due to the super bowl... ill probably be able to make next week though
 
*IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT*

After giving it some thought, I've decided to cancel this Sunday's league night. A few of you have already said you can't make it due to the Super Bowl, and pretty much all of us will be watching it anyways. I don't want to put anyone in a position where they have to rush home from a Super Bowl party or miss the end of the game (or a potential overtime) in order to make the races on time.

Also, since Division 1 will have ten drivers, we currently don't have enough drivers to fill up Division 2. We could split the divisions into eight drivers each, but I'd prefer not to do that. Pushing back the first divisional races by one week will give us time to recruit more snails to fill the Division 2 grid. Sorry to disappoint, but good things come to those who wait! 👍

No problem Zero, good call.

It'll give me more time to figure out how not to use so much of the front tires at Cape Ring Periphery!

EDIT: Not to mention Nurburgring GP/F :lol:

You must be driving it wrong! Or I just love the subtle drifts in the corners that I'm ignoring its faults. I ran a handful of laps with sports hard...down to 1'52 that popped on the racing softs for one lap and it felt the same...albeit ten seconds faster.

====================================================================================

Spoon CR Z --Madrid

I'm sure I'm not driving it as well as you are :sly:

I do like the 'floatiness', I just noticed those two places to be the most sensitive with respect to turn in and braking. At the right after the jump, miss by a little bit and the car sets late and hello wall :)

The second spot I was talking about was after the gentle left, after the right, after the jump (make sense)??? There's a little rise during a slight left turn and then a hard right and then down the hill. If you wait to brake till after the rise, good chance you'll be coming in 'hot' into the right hander, brake a little too early and you have to speed up to get to the corner, miss it by a little bit and your hands are full :lol:

I brake up the hill on that left hander...throttle back on till a quick hard brake for right hander. That section combined with next two penultimate corners always split the pack. It can be faster to roll that first left right torturer for one brake done but the room for mistake is very small and consistency is crucial for success on this course.

It's a fun series of corners, followed by another fun series of corners 👍

My best was a 1:55.3 or something in the Jag on SH in practice. I managed a 55.9 in the Wednesday race and it wasn't until I figured out that others were on racing tyres why I was so much slower :lol:
 
Lobby information for tonight is in post 485. Room limited to 10. First come first to race.

this may be asking a lot but is it possible for folks to confirm whether or not they'll be racing tonight?
I'm wiling to wait for snails if I know they're on the way but if its more than 10 min. after I will start things up

Your Friday line-up looks awesome! I'll be there. 👍
 
PLEASE RECHECK LINE-UP in post 485...CHANGES HAVE BEEN MADE

Not sure if running the sunday lineup will be possible either...I had a senior moment when making the schedule of events
