Nice series you guys have here. Are there any openings? I'd like to sign up if possible.
 
Reports are coming in. Please watch the replay then report lap # and which round the incident is in. Please understand the course is tight and we are all anxious and competitive players. Thanks.
 
Horrible race for me. Car just wasn't there. Congrats to Mike on both wins. Looking forward to a normal track.

Congrats to Mike. Also to anyone who got through unscathed!

I got knocked out of contention by a spun lapped car early in race 1 while in 2nd place. Got smacked at race start in race 2 so couldn't contend in that one either. Barely could finish the second race after another spun lapped car accident on lap 27. Think I got damaged 5-6 times total last night. Ugly race for me-wish I hadn't practiced so much.
 
Point to self: Drinking before race is not a good idea :crazy:

Still confused as to why my car was nothing like during practice. I couldn't get through a single turn without smoking the front tires lol

Do your practicing in my lounge. My lounge always has less grip than RR's lounge for some reason. When you show up for race day you'll be ready. LOL
 
Well, I qualified better than I thought I would, my pit strategy worked out really well I was able to come from deep in the field up to third on the last lap in the octagon, when I became an airborne spinning top and hard into the wall. Finished 9th because I didn't want to pull back on track and wreck anyone. Second race was uneventful and only managed to pick up 2 spots. NCR I felt really bad for you as I was behind you for almost all your misfortunes.
On a positive note; I'm still impressed with the qualifying times and how close we all are. Great job guys!
 
I'm glad you guys are sticking out this damage thing. It shows that you have confidence in yourselves and have the drive to try and work through it. On one hand the damage model is stupid. Not realistic of course. Then on the other hand glancing off of other cars and pretending your fast is ludicrous speed. I guess you have to tell yourself which is the lesser evil and feel good about it. Lie if you have to. Just don't give up. After Cote the struggles should be over.
 
Lapped Traffic: Stay put in a clear identifiable driving line if you are solo.

Lapped Traffic Racing Pairs: Keep racing for position but move over on a straight. Lapping car to show more patience of course.

Cars Off Track: Wait until clear. Tires have far less grip when coming back on from an off. You cannot accelerate as fast to get out of the way.

Thanks JT , I watched both replays and it was time to go over this , Also should be careful at the first turn , poor NRC was hammered after 2 seconds of racing in the first race .

The lapped car needs to allow the faster car an easy pass on a straight. Just ease off the gas enough so the car behind can get around. And enough that it shows the faster car that intention.

Thanks man! I'm looking forward to monaco too, in real life and our race . So what's gonna be the the fast laps here? 1:31?

I'll do my best to get out of the way if I see you fast guys coming. I don't expect anything good here for me. Just hope not to finish on the lead lap
 
Just watching the replay from the first race. On lap 25 as I pass the start/finish I notice something weird. Someone's pit crew is scattered along turn one. Took some pics. Now to fugue out how to post them

Happened on the next lap as well first it was the Audi crew ext lap was the Opel crew. Weird stuff
 
I hope I didnt ruin the race for anybody. I do my best to stay out of the way and to wait till its clear to re-enter the track after I lose control. But I realize I am not perfect and I am sorry if I negatively impacted the race for anyone.

If need be I am willing to bow out of the series for the further enjoyment of all.

It's all JT's fault.
