trying to get in this, PS3 keeps playing up.

To the usual crowd 👍 by far the best event online, this evenings racing, well just amazing grids with so many 512's. To mr_VOLCANO and BTH_Lacko_M47 nice race when everyone else packed up and left 👍

Went a little quicker in free run 1.52.106.
Also made a S2 S3 set up and ran a 1.52.133, was bored.

Froze again :crazy::scared::grumpy: Too bad such a lovely event has to be screwed up by PD's pathetic servers :guilty: I'll try again at 41:30 👍

Edit: This damn game won't throw me a bone today :ouch: First race, freezed on the loading screen. Second race I start in the back and follow Rudi (who had pole) for the entire race with a 2 second gap...boring. 3rd race comes around and I start out back again (with Rudi on pole) and I get all banged up by some Clit..I mean clio :lol: 4th race comes around and the same thing happens again, with me starting out back and all the faster guys up front. Stupid game comes up with every reason possible to keep me away from a good race :crazy:

Anyways, I modified the gearing on my tune. The gears are longer across the spread now. It makes the 2nd gear turns much easier now 👍 Ren: Just update my V3 tune with the new gearing if you can 👍

I'll post your revised tune as V.4 (cause I use and love your V3, and I don't wanna looses reference to it) Hope you're cool with that. Thanks for all your effort, me and many others really appreciate it. Same applies to the other tuners thinking community and sharing! 👍

Thanks fellas 👍

I got to go for now...hopefully I'll catch you tommorow for some more quality battles :cheers:
 
As many of you will have come across, TA and myself came up with the idea of changing this event to N1 or N2 tyres, for possible application from today on.
Main aim was some variety and a new challange.... Well, we put in a couple of trial runs on Saturday, accompanied by RPM and Grenade...
In a nutshell: I think we all had a blast but more or less concluded it might be better to not alter the event. It's big fun the way it is and the Ns proved to be rather scary, beyond that slow to an extent that you must really hussle to finish a race before time out. Besides that the responses to the idea where mostly on the side of not changing.

So: Things stay as they were: S-tyres!

I'll seeya tonight! 👍

This is getting out of hand! :lol::bowdown:... speechless!

Rudi: Great stuff with that video!!!
PS: Put your tune on for one Rudi.... first and only outlap 52.7 (for me good). Feels great! Thx. Will take it to the last race now, see how it goes :-) Edit: Still feels good! :-) Going to give it some free run time tonight!

Running my last one @ 41:30 now... thanks for the great races guys! :cheers:

I attached the replay for my 1'51.660 lap below.

I also took camera footage of the lap and put it on YT, per Mr_Volcano's request 👍

Split times: T1: 23.306 T2: 59.002 total: 1'51.660


Not sure why the quality is so bad...I need to figure out how to perserve the quality a bit more when converting formats.

Also, here's a race with Mr_Volcano and Ren that I happened to record yesterday. We had a record pace going up until lap 4, when I hit Mr_V's rear end under braking into T1 :ill: When Mr V pulled in front of me it was just enough slip stream to cause me to hit his rear unfortunately :ouch: Sorry again Richard, it would have been nice to possibly get into the 9:22 range...but there's always next time at least :)

 
Small grids tonight: but nice!!! Thx Sinibomb, Bolton_Babe, Russrobit and a few others I just can't remember, sorry, for a few nice close races! :cheers:


Joining now :)

Btw: Thanks Rudi: managed a new PB with your tune: now only half a second off alien pace :banghead:....LOL....naw: :) 1'52.157

only my opinion. :)
