It's leaving a very sour taste in my mouth. The least I can do is communicate with Vsfit since he inherited the prize from me. Maybe we can work together to make a decision.

 

[JamCar0ne]

How about the fact that Engmatic and I had the exact same qualifying time for the TVR? I saw I jumped ahead of him when I crossed the line but when I saw the actual times I burst out laughing. That was incredible racing last night.

Actually, the data says otherwise, perhaps you are confusing the TVR with the LFA?

 

[Falango]

Well think of it this way. Let's say you win Prize A, hurray!!! There's an IR filed against you, uh oh. Stewards can't review it to see if there should be a penalty applied or not, which means they can't tell whether you actually earned the prize legally or not. The Data Specialist also can't complete their job fully, which leaves holes for when the time comes for promotion and relegation. I'd say those are obvious reasons why having incomplete jobs from Sunday night might lead to this, from an unofficial standpoint that is. It just seems to make sense to me at least.

I was pretty sure it was the TVR but you're right. My bad lol

Agreed. But last night there were no IRs against me. There still aren't today so it seems okay.

 

[Falango]

You can't be an exception to the rules because there's no IR against you. I'm just using an IR as an example. Fact is the jobs weren't done when someone said they would do them. I'll just leave it to someone that can give you an official answer with a stamp on it then.

@TomMang_68 Love the pic's. The congradaltory pic is the coolest pic ever! Thanks for the time and effort to make me look so good. You definitely have skill.

I pass the freeze to @vsfit

 

[DesertPenguin09]

I pass the freeze to @vsfit

So that means he gets to decide what to freeze, and then it goes back to you to change the part that wasn't frozen, right?

 

[aLmk]

Yes

 

[vsfit]

@JLBowler, @Dragonwhisky I choose to freeze the track.

Will be on to help test in 5 minutes.

Policy is more than likely in place to be sure necessary division duties are completed in a timely manor and as a motivation for racers to volunteer and help with things that need to be done.

This place is so well organized with tons of data and history you can pour over, but it doesn't run itself. You won't find many other leagues that are this well established without finding people that help maintain it week to week. Part of that is us regular old Sunday racers helping out a bit on Sunday. Ask within your division who took responsibility for replays. Is that something you could contribute to the team?

@dgaf95integra and I have had that happen before. I posted the lap after him, and I moved ahead in position, but the purple time didn't change to me.



The big boys will have a better answer than me. I don't run the place, I just help.

Also, this isn't the first time someone has lost a prize because of Sunday night tasks missing.

Well think of it this way. Let's say you win Prize A, hurray!!! There's an IR filed against you, uh oh. Stewards can't review it to see if there should be a penalty applied or not, which means they can't tell whether you actually earned the prize legally or not.

Looks like @Falango and @USERID_77a23 pretty much got it covered.

It should leave a sour taste in your mouth. Hopefully, it also bugs your division mates as well and future occurrences will not happen.

 

[DesertPenguin09]

I just looked at the combo history and Laguna Seca had a lot of one-and-done's, but was used twice a few times, even thrice. The most weeks it held in a row was five.

I got to use the word "thrice". Win.

You know you want Sunday Night Miatas! Do itttt!

 

[DesertPenguin09]

Do you guys like the '07 MX-5? Sadly it's the most recent MX-5. I'd love to see the generation update and next-gen MX-5 on GT7.

It looks like you have the right stuff to be a banner designer. It is always good to have a few people who can do it. So...... Do you want to give it a shot for March 29 or even better, why don't you take care of the April season. I'm sure you will have some tweaks to improve the overall look and then I have to catch up and come up with an even better challenge in May.

Going to post thumbnails only, full album, with captions, can be found here.

D8 goes to Mid-Field and has some pretty good battles!

I'd be down to give it a go. Think you could zip all the track logos and stuff and maybe a .psd of your template? I can come up with some designs to see what everyone thinks so we can all get some input

D8 does Special Stage Route 5

And finally Monza

As much as I really like the RX-7 we tested (and everybody agreed it drove really nice), I think the Miata will have the best, closest racing. (It's alllll about MOMENTUM and RACECRAFT!) That's why for my first (and likely last) Prize A I've picked:

Mazda Eunos Roadster (NA Special Package) '89 [This is a Premium car]
[FR]
Dealer HP: 118
Oil Change HP: 123
PP After Oil Change: 364
940kg
Comfort Soft Tires

Estimated Mid Division time 1:54

Take note of how the track width changes and use it to your advantage for passing

(maybe someone can take that wonderful RX-7 to Monaco some time after we've had a break from city tracks )

Wow.. 17 was able to drive INTO/Through the barrier!

remember that there is a EV setting that can be adjusted UP or Down. Your pictures are really good and could be excellent if you play with the EV settings. Up to give more light... down to close.
