So are there talks of combining D1 and D2 for next month? We only had 4 on the grid last night.

Yes and no. Yes, we'll be contracting to three divisions to fill the grids back up. However, it won't be a simple combining of two divisions. It'll be more like what we did when we went from five divisions to four last month. In other words, everyone in D2 won't be moved to D1 etc.
 
So I totally forgot this was going to happen. Came back from work and was faced with this new shiny site instead of the old one. First, I would would like to say that Rally's rig looks awesome! Nice work.
In relation to the site, I like it. It looks more clean and simple, but of course this being the internet I can't go without complaining about some changes. Number one being that the signature now can only be 3 lines long...wut? And can't have any color. I know it's not the end of the world but I like colors. haha And no more emoticons? why? I assume they will return in the future.
I also like the new photo mode/option thingy. A lot easier to upload and view, especially in slide mode.
Oh well, I sure that in a couple of days this will feel normal and we won't even remember the old site. haha
 
Sorry guys, I won't be able to complete the results post until I get back home this evening. The new site has initiated a few "conversations" that have taken up my lunch break.
 
Hey everyone,

Since the new GTP doesn't run on BBCode primarily, I've created a little cheat sheet for anyone to use should you still want to go with BBCode. Some things like color and centering you'll have to use BBCode for anyway now. To edit the BBCode for your post just click on the page and wrench icon in the top right corner of the reply box.

Thanks Cmbeal! This helps a lot!
 
Hey everyone,

Sorry I did not get banners done this week. Having license issues with photoshop after having switched laptops. Hopefully I will be up and running again this week so get some pics posted when the new combos are chosen.

You got to get that Creative Cloud, son!
 
Just received the GTEye Spring. No problem as to installation - plenty of instructions.
My question: What should I expect as far as "getting used to" the difference, and the immediate effect on laps?
Don't want to install the "Miracle Spring" and mess up the Kart races tomorrow night.
Any thoughts? Tried finding the discussion on the thread, but ......... no luck/
 
Thanks - thought so, but was wondering before I started the project.
if you want more tension in the gas peddle, put the clutch spring into the gas spring, and the brake spring in the clutch peddle. thats what rally suggested to me, and i liked it! You wont regret this GTEYE brake spring.
 
TOTPP-fu game is not totally broke. Think it's a thirty post per page thing now.

Yes, playing the game for future TOTPP's will remain the same, although 50% more painful if you lose the game (due to the ten extra posts you have to wait cycle). However, many of our previous TOTPP's are no longer.. For example, our schedule, our OLR Rules, the IR Submission Form, and the driver list have all been stripped of TOTPP status. :(

EDIT: Actually, :( doesn't cut it.. It's more like :banghead: (I know the emoticon doesn't show up, but please imagine my head being bright red while I smash it repeatedly into a brick wall). I imagine Exo shares similar feelings since he's also spent significant time hunting TOTPP's for The Pit Board.

You can expect it to feel more like the brake pedal in your car.

Wife just emailed me asking did I want the standard spring or the progressive. Went to the site and it shows the difference between the "standard" stock spring and the gteye spring and I reckon she thought they sold both. Think I might have this in a couple months. :D Dunno about that buttkicker though.

I'm not really happy with my ButtKicker. Just me. If you are looking to purchase one, let me know and I'll make you a good deal. I only turned it on 3 times so its, pretty much, brand new.

It is kind of a drag but I will always remember how much fun it was and how much more "fun" it will be in the future.

Maybe the emoticons will return in the future, but just think how much fun we can have with the new drag and drop pic feature when we need to express our feelings visually!!

What is it that your not happy with? I hear the amp is a bit to be desired in them, and that hooking them up to a more powerful amp , especially one you can filter out anything over 100hz goes a long way to make them feel better,

It's a great feature, don't get me wrong, it just is distracting, for me. Not for the girlfriend, if you know what I mean ;-]

I'm a plug and play type of person and not into messing around with something to get it right. I guess I'm a weirdo! LOL!
 
I'm struggling to get the results post done on the new software. My usual method of updating a previous post isn't working out so well because the coding is different for some reason. So while I try to figure it out, please remember this:

If you believe that another driver exhibited poor racecraft or is guilty of an S.N.A.I.L. OLR violation, please file a Racing Incident Report by 11pm Eastern / 8pm Pacific tonight. Be sure to follow the instructions precisely or your submission might not be addressed! If you're undecided on whether or not you should file an incident, please read this. Also keep in mind that an incident report isn't supposed to be an argument. Here are some good tips on how to make sure things stay civil and respectful. 👍
 
What's up with the system? Or maybe it's on my end. Have been trying to get online to practice but have been kicked/disconn 5-6 times. Even restarted the PS3 and tried again - same result.
Anyone have suggestion?

For me it was distracting at first, because it was so new. I got used to it pretty quickly and now it feels weird when I forget to turn them on.

There's only two things to mess with. There's a high and low filter setting, changes the top level of the frequency the amp will respond to. And the intensity or volume, just adjust up or down til it's not too overwhelming.

Each car is different you can really feel some over others. If you like to mess with it you can adjust the intensity for each car or find a middle ground and leave it.
