I can only think of two idiotic mistakes this race instead of the usual 255,976+ mistakes, the one listed above and during the pace lap where I attempted to warm my tires and flew myself through the sand into a wall.

My reaction was Darth Vader NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

I was laughing lol
 
Hey guys so I'm thinking next season since I'm gonna be so busy instead of drawing up a bunch of support races I'm just going to start a RUF RGT '00 challenge race series. We'll spec the car so everyone is equal on power but can have adjustable DF, suspensions etc. Maybe have a tire limitation as well.

Similar deal where it runs before the races at the same tracks each week.

Does the RUF RGT have downforce?
 
:(

EDIT: woot Jaime Melo is boss. That is all. (When they give him a car that runs.) Also congrats to Klaus Graf with AMR.

Yeah but I figured you might bring back the GT challenge class with the F430s, which I am a fan of.

I really wanted to do a porsche-esque series.

You could do a Ferrari Challenge series...

I second this. Wished they had the Testa Rossa and the FXX, though...
I'm sorry, but Ferrari's are :yuck: how about a ________ challenge series the blank being:
1) Ruf
2) Lamborghini
4) Corvette
5) Ruf Yellowbird (no assists this would be fun)
And that's all I got :/
 
I like the RM idea, I like the Camaro rm's or the Lotus Elise rm. Rm's with full power. That way its fair. Plus we can throw a speedway in and it will be fun! That's my vote. Sorry no video this week.
 
Just as we take a break from our season Road America ends with amazing finishes all across the board. Then we have races in Baltimore, Silverstone, Laguna Seca, Petit Le Mans, Estoril. It's getting exciting!

EDIT: after watching some video from the last race me and the two corvettes had some great racing for a majority of the race. Between that pit stop pass and a number of other back-and-forths it was a lot of fun. My biggest downfall was that I lowered my DF for the track so when my tires went my ballst placement pulled the back end out making the car highly unstable. Thus I had a lot of spinning crashes on low rubber.

But I guess maybe that's just racing driver's excuses :)

I wish I got into the groove earlier this season, oh well that's just my luck to get good on the last race :(
 
I am not going to listen to GT's suggestion on fuel ever again. I usually put 5 extra liters of fuel on top of their suggested amount, but I didn't this time. It was fun though trying to save fuel while the guy in the Toyota was gaining time. All for nothing!

How are ferraris bad they may be yuck in your oppinion but i really like them
 
I like Ferraris but I'm sick of racing them, really. I've been in a 430 or 458 for two whole seasons :/

Probably going with Ford GT next season.

I think I missed that great racing too [/gloat]

I'm interested in how the points standings will play out...

I'll get those updated by tomorrow night!

Can't believe I totally threw away my last race of the season with crap tuning and bad tire management. Fun, but not helping my points at all...

Yeah yeah Mitch. Were you even in the race? Never saw you ;)
