Good choice coach. Can't wait to get the feel of that VW.

You will like it Mr. Shmiggz. A gut feeling knowing how you drive/driving style.

I found it very controllable, and at lap 5+ it became a little easier to turn (rotate), or I became more familiar with it.

Should be fun!

I saw that on Jalopnik and I couldn't think how he Spider-Man'd his way on top of the car

 

[MajorBlixem]

Did he get a free ride to the next town?

@JLBowler , @zer05ive , @CoachMK21 ,@GamingPete

Using Dangerzone's reported lap time and adding a couple seconds, the maths I use put our race laps for the Spa combo at 5 with 3 qualifying laps. This will put qualifying time at 6.4 so might as well use 7 minutes to allow most to get in 3 laps.

So we're looking at a 0:11:30.xxx total race time? Or there abouts...

 

[Handlebar]

Bet ya the top of the car needed a biohazard style wash...

And the guy on top clearly needed a brain implant, he clearly didn't have one before...

(Yeah, should be 11:30+, depending on Division)

New combos could be posted as early as Monday night(very unlikely) to as late as Thursday evening before official practice .. Just whenever the prize winners are cleared and when they make their selections.

There is always one carry over combo from week to week and we know that one Monday night(most of the time) when @zer05ive posts the results

So do you know what the carry over one is?

 

[Handlebar]

So do you what the carry over one is?

The GT500 at Suzuka survived (just barely).

@Br1mann , @hognhominy , @Pifachu , @RAMZR1 , @tevesh2

If you guys want to be able to race this Sunday or any Sunday there after, you need to respond in the conversation that is ongoing with the rest of D6, myself, and Dragonwhisky.

Who decides whether the combo carries over? Is it done by vote somehow or does a director such as @JLBowler do it?

So we're looking at a 0:11:30.xxx total race time? Or there abouts...

The target for the maths is 660 seconds total race time. We generally don't want our races to be less than 10 minutes, nor more than 12. The preference, if a choice had to be made, would be to have the races go 12, or a tad more, rather than less than 10.

Using 12 as our max race completion time and adding in the 90 second max race finish delay, our races should last no more than 81 minutes. This gives us 39 minutes to get qualifying and the in between races business taken care of. Since we've been using the timed sessions for qualifying, I've rarely seen it over 8 minutes, subtract that 24 and you have 15 minutes to burn between races, about 3 minutes between each.. This is why we want everyone in place before start times, so any initial connection issues can be dealt with, and the folks that are staying up late to run, aren't staying up any later than is necessary.

The league as a whole votes for which combos go and which stay. Have you read the first post?

You really need to read the first post in this thread.

 

[hognhominy]

@JLBowler I probably won't be racing for a minute. and I don't see you in the D6 conversation, i'll add you.

 

[JohnD3]

Sorry, I did read that but it was probably one of the first things I read and I have since forgotten because of all the other things I've had to read in the last few days ( it's a lot to take in). I will try to find the answers first before asking questions from now on.

 

[JLBowler]

@JLBowler I probably won't be racing for a minute. and I don't see you in the D6 conversation, i'll add you.

I'm talking about the other conversation entitled D6 connection issues.

I think I'm done with the reviews for the week

Prize A?

We may have to begin the "nomination shuffle" - how to replace a prize when apathy or life gets in the way of a timely announcement.

@JLBowler @Dragonwhisky @zer05ive

 

[McTrucker]

it is, feels very nice. this combo will be fun

Since the VW is half the weight and on grippier tires than the vette, it does feel good.

 

[dangerzone641]

Speaking of random combos, something that I think would be pretty fun is the honda beat at Matterhorn, car does 25 up the hill and 100 down the hill. The SPEEEEEEED lol

@JLBowler @Dragonwhisky @zer05ive

This is Wednesday and even though @Xradkins did say he would do some testing and post something, it's time for a deadline. If a selection hasn't been made by midnight ET then everyone who raced in D2 should make one prize A nomination. Once the nominations close, the entire league that raced Sunday night can vote on prize A.

Obviously, if he makes his selection before the deadline this post will be rendered moot.
