Congrats Longbow 👍

Looking forward to Laguna, hopefully I'll be able to round out the season with a win.

If there's one track where I expect to have a chance to win, it's Seca.

*Cobra*

I guess that's an acceptable excuse. Looks uncomfortable though.

Congrats Longbow 👍

All hail longbow our ruler!

Thanks guys, I appreciate that. I sort of feel like it should have been given 1/2 points or something but. I suppose a win is a win. And I should feel good about that. Even though I didn't drive that great in the race (especially at the end), but it was (barely) enough....

Also seems like everyone is amazing at Laguna, haha. Which should provide a tough race...

Well I sat in one today too.

I could sit in one right now if I went outside.

Don't see why it should be half points, the turnouts always tail off towards the end of a season, plus the fact that it would make the points messy.

Never actually had a competitive race at Laguna, thanks to a particularly awful upload speed.

 

[LongbowX]

I just felt there were a lot of people missing. I don't think it would make the points messy, although I suppose even under half-points (rounded up), I would still win the driver's championship so I'm not sure what the point of it would be. And 2nd place in the teams championship is now even more competitive after Daytona - so it should be an epic Team finale at Laguna in that sense.

Tables, as promised:






Congratulations, not only to drivers' champion LongbowX, but also to teams' champions CarJack Racing!

Battle for 2nd in both championships has hotted up.

Now you should know as an Englishman, the correct term is heated up.

 

[FordMKIVJ5]

Now you should know as an Englishman, the correct term is heated up.

I know, but it's quite common to say "hotted up" or "hotting up" when referring to battles etc. even if it isn't grammatically correct.

You English are so weird.

 

[FordMKIVJ5]

You English are so weird.

It's just slang, for example you can say something is "on the huh", meaning it's wonky. Sometimes you just forget that there are people on here that might not understand what you mean.

What day of the week is this?

 

[Litchi]

sundays

 

[carracerptp]

What are you guys running for times?

 

[FordMKIVJ5]

What are you guys running for times?

Pretty much consistent low 1:39s with the potential for 38s, but I keep getting bored of the track and giving up.

Also, how many laps?

 

[Carbonox]

Umm, do people even know there's a race today?

 

[Phouchg]

Of course we know! How could we miss the season finale?

 

[quade420]

How long until start?

 

[FordMKIVJ5]

How long until start?

1 hour 10 minutes. 👍


Still waiting on the lap count.

 

[Carbonox]

Yay, cracked the 1'39's.

 

[LongbowX]

Is this happening or not?

 

[FordMKIVJ5]

Is this happening or not?

Unless Dax gets online in the next couple of minutes, then I highly doubt it.


Looks like is postponed until next week guys. Hope the race doesn't start late because my entry will be in doubt.

 

[Phouchg]

Seems like he forgot about his own race... again. Guess we'll skip this week then.

 

[Akmuq]

But if you have signed up for something and then you do something else instead, you should either do what you signed up for or sign up as a reserve instead.

Had a bit of drama and didn't really have any opportunity to get on today. My dads engine broke and we had to fix it and I completely forgot about this. So sorry guya.

You know, you never did tell us what this was about:

Everything is cool, just a bit shaken up. I will post a link to the story later, I am sure it will end up on the forums. It's too awesome/scary to not be shared.

 

[Carbonox]

I know the story behind the second quote.

 

[DaxCobra]

Oh, that story.


Well, my friends roof blew off at 90 70 MPH and narrowly missed going through my windscreen and decapitating me and my friend.

All good fun.

It was only thanks to my prayer that you survived. You should gift me a premium as a thank you.
