BST V8 challenge -COMPLETED

[V8-Johnboy]

Heres an idea why not get that Lexus set up before you enter race night?? Nearly every monday you say your struggling with setup etc which isnt helping surely?? What i dont understand is you have one of the fastet guys in the field in your wingman Akmuq who is consistant most weeks?? and i quote "every week is good for the Lexus" so it aint the wagon budd..💡

Yeah its me. I know that. Lucky I have worked on it at Fuji today... But honestly I do struggle on tighter courses with this thing. No excuse's, and if you feel I'm too much of a mobile chicane I will step aside.

 

[V8-Johnboy]

Not asking you to step aside i dont want to turn this into a personal attack on you mate but as much as i have tried to ignore things (my fault) we dont want to carry on like this do we??Simply be a little less aggresive and have a bit more patience yes im not here to teach you to suck eggs your experienced enough you said exactly the same to me when i first joined Toca its ingrained on my brain ive since taken heed and get alot more out of the game now, your car movement is so tippy tappy in the turns are you using DS3 or is the set up just that bad.

Well, to be fair the brakes on the Lexus are 🤬. They sometimes catch me out and it's harder to slow the car down using automatic, and it doesn't really turn in hairpins.

 

[Furinkazen]

DS3, and I forward what Akmuq said. Fuji is going to be good as there is few tight turns.

 

[Jhodas]

Guys I'm gonna have to pull out of fuji. I start a new job on monday so will be knackered, and am in London for the weekend so won't be able to put the practise in.
I'll watch the fireworks rather than be a liability on the track.
Have fun!

 

[V8-Johnboy]

If you get the chance later or tomorrow, could you look at my race? I was involved in quite a few incidents, I'm not sure if I was doing anything wrong or not but I might have hit a few people by accident.

Don't think I did.

Akmuq if you want me to i gladly will, but look we are all going to make mistakes at times 69 for instance rear ended me at TM i had a go he said sorry honest mistake fine carry on hasnt happened since, Hancock put me in the wall at Tokyo and had an incident with Culkin had words and hes driving his socks off now and thanked us for pointing out the fact he needed to tone it down a bit if i or 69 get complaints we are going to follow them up to date matey there hasnt been an issue with you and i for one dont intend to go looking for ways to pick on people thats not why we are here.👍

Understood Jhodas i hope you dont feel you need to step away because of the last race?

 

[Furinkazen]

I really get irritated with the way I always find gedi on track. It's not his fault but we just always seem to run into each other, by pure stroke of luck.

Suzuka race 2 was uncanny you gotta admit it dont look clever although on viewing replay i believe you were trying to pull over to allow the field past just went a fraction early and clipped 69 next time just finish the first race as best you can theres a lesson there for all of us huh.💡

Yeah. Funny thing I was last in R1 when I quit anyway. But you did say I would have a cheap pole for Race 2. I even warned people about it on the in-game chat!!!

Yes i remember but finishing the race wouldnt have put you in the situation we found would it, its a good lesson to everyone dont quit finish the race you would have had a legitimate pole then no issues, guess we need to implement this rule stronger in S2.👍

 

[Furinkazen]

Agreed. But at same time I didn't want to cause even more crashes... Anyway when I win Fuji there will be no complaints

Yeah its a tricky balance i know, im hoping you dont win Fuji cos im comin for ya.

Everything is fine fella we are all freinds here.....freindly rivals anyway.👍

 

[V8-Johnboy]

Thanks guys. I have a pretty tasty Camaro that I have a lot of love for, so will choose that (red body yellow wheels hmmmm).

Will need a tune though, especially if I can make Fuji.

Good choice by the way 69 will update you on the reserve list then mate(this ones a legit entry gedi i take full responsibility).

Yup, knelly is a good driver.

I know thats why i stalked him.

Having received an "Official Warning" from one of the two series organisers I would like to issue an explanation for what was interpreted as deliberate blocking and an attempt to take someone out at the very start of Race 2.

I said I would move over to let people by as it was deemed I had a unfair advantage and cheap pole. I tried not to hit (driver here), I was pulling out the way to let the other's past. It was by no means on purpose.

You started on the left side of the track so next time pull to the left not right accross cars. Thats all im going to say.

Good choice by the way 69 will update you on the reserve list then mate(this ones a legit entry gedi i take full responsibility).

LOL Funny thing Jb that last bloke said his exam results were bad and his parents have banned him from ps3.

 

[V8-Johnboy]

^ LOL sounds a fair excuse to me probably why me and you are house hubbies huh PMSL.

 

[Milldrum]

I have watched race 1 and part of race 2. I did take some incriminating photos. I have passed these on to David Cameron to pass on to Scotland Yard for a full investigation. He will be having a press conference soon.

So, anyway, I was wondering. What should I give as a sponsors choice award. Any suggestions?

I can do that via the widget.

Ladies and Gentlemen, destinguished guests and anyone not fitting into those catagories. It has and will continue to be a great pleasure to be the main sponsor for the BST V8 Challenge. But today I am proud to announce the winner of the "Sponsors Always Impose Needless Titles Surprise." (Or SAINTS)

It was a tough decision made even tougher by my 2 conflicts of interest. My car clearly sounds the best and comes in a lovely color scheme.

Also the car driven by GiK69/GEDI69 was coordinated by my design studios. Although we didn't think it would be made to appear like this.


Suzuka Circuit_4 by Milldrum, on Flickr

So with those 2 fantastic cars excluded, my decision is all the more difficult. Which one of these machines should be the SAINTS winner?

So after watching some of the creative driving and perfect execution of race craft.........

...and a car that had obviously been stolen. Which explains the driving and the finger print dust.

I had finally made a decision. Just missing out were...

But there can only be one winner. The winner will receive a level 21 ticket, some sponsors parts and paints and access to a Widget for $1 million. This is the SAINTS award and the decision is final. So the winner is...
