Anyone on tonight for a last couple'a races before the update?
In from now... hope to see some common faces!
 
Sorry, I know its a double post, but the last post is so long ago I hope it's ok in this case ... ;-)

Who would be keen on picking this event up again, only in Suzi for a change?

I'm definitely up for this, the Flat 12 is STILL my favorite car and has proven for close and challanging battles, many of you know this already :)

Let me know what you think!

Cheers
H.
 
512 at Suzuka was one of the best events I've ever particpated in. It doesn't have to be the same Transformers vs Miami Vice job, but 100% I would like it to run again 👍

All the best

Yes it does, I bought a variety of different coloured 512bb's for that very reason! Last time I had to give up on this event as I found the car too difficult to control, this time I am a much better driver so I can't wait to have another bash!

EDIT: Just took the old girl out for a spin - smoothness is definately the key here, she's quick to punish your mistakes!! I'm also pleased to announce that the badly-driven-clio owners club have already made themselves at home at this venue 👎

Man yeah, of course!!! The Miami vs. Transformers thing was fantastic, had just slipped my mind. THAT we should reactivate, or maybe even a new motto? In any case I don't want to piggy back on your idea... So, now what? Do you want to bring your thread back to life? Or shall we work out a new funny motto? I'd would like to keep a low-level scoreboard in, as in the Fuji event. Too bad only one person can "own" and thus edit a thread, otherwise I'd say you reactivate Transformers and I do the leaderboard thingy...
Anyway, let me know what you think. My feeling is the "regulars" of the past will be here in any case, awesome awesome... looking forward to this :D

Oh hey man you can brand it whatever you like, just as long as there's a 512 race I'll be there, so go with whatever you're happy with mate :cheers:

Good stuff!

Can somebody tell me if its 5 or 10 laps (can't check, am at work :guilty:). Thats important cause it determines whether we can do a race every 20mins or only 30....

Edit: Cool Maz, I'll just let this run on then for now, maybe somebody has a bright spark to spice things up as we go along. Important right now is only a schedule (waiting for input on number of laps) and then we'll just burn some rubber! I'll be neutral as usual and pitch up in my "edtione argento" :-)

5 laps Ren so every 20 should be fine. I'll be driving miss Daisy here this weekend 👍

Thanks for the heads up... doesn't seem to be my math-day 💡

I'll be in at 55 now as well :), hope to see you guys!
 
I'll be skipping xx55 Heiko, but back in for xx15 👍

Fantastic race just now with Hyperspeed and Racer_LP!

All the best

Shocking to say little, but I'll "open up" the scoreboard with:

a race lap in free air : 2'18.005
overall race time: 11'47.770

I know that can all be done hell of a lot quicker :lol:
 
Now you guys are just taking the piss. I so wish I could be online with you gents now.

:lol:

It was supposed to be a week off for half term, but I had to work most of it, so just enjoying my last "day off" ;)

All the best
Maz
 
Talking of teaching, I've just been schooled by Maz on the difference between D1 and D4 :lol:

Thanks for waiting and keeping it interesting buddy 👍
 
Going to miss this one for lunch, back in at 35 (at least Maz has some competition now :lol: )
 
Is nobody watching the practice sessions for the F1 this weekend? That’s what I’d be doing if I had the day off.
