^^^ Dont worry we are still very much in love just think we are both probably trying to hard to get things right.:guilty:

Dont worry Jack your points are safe if stewards decide on half points for the 3 unfortunate drivers they will be added onto the back of last nights results.đź‘Ť
 
They're like a married couple.:sly:

Just kidding, you don't argue half often enough.:)



There's no point quitting after a couple of laps into the race, Furi hit me (with a really stupid mover) when I was in 4th and knocked me back 20 seconds behind in last, but I caught up to the pack and managed to rescue 5th out of it.:)

I was going to do the same, but then I decided to see what I could do, and gradually got my interest back.(I was driving out of anger, so that might have made me better)

Them fords and audis are fast and there was no way I would catch them, and didn't want to spend 45 mins racing myself lol.
 
Well gedi, look what happened to me, was nowhere near anyone first race and gained 4 places next race and led 10 laps even being 3s off pace

You could have raced me matey, I was far enough behind :lol:

I'm sorry to see you and JB struggling with your partnership in running the series :(

As someone who's run a series or two in my time, and moderated here and there, if I may be so bold as to offer some advice...

Please try to get your heads together in a calm fashion, and try to regain your focus on running the series as a team

It's very easy to be distracted and swayed by posts and pm's by people trying to find loopholes in the rules etc

Remember, you're running the series under a set of rules you both need to be fully agreed on

As long as you're both happy and agreed that those rules are fair and reasonable, we drivers have the choice to either go with them, or simply... go :D

ps. Whoa, 1000+ posts :cool:

Thanks rp I think your right about the loophole thing, once rules are in place they should not be changed IMO
 
The PSN makes us nervous and requires understanding and flexibility and patience and a pillow to punch and anticipation and a pillow to swear loudly into and creativity and nobody has an infallible Internet connection. With that said, Season 3 will be better for the experience gained in Seasons 1 & 2. Rules for more PSN and GT5 extremes will be in place and everyone will accept them on the way in.

As for GiK and JB. You need to find what you have in common. What you agree on. You love V8's. You love close racing. You love when England beat Australia in cricket or France in Soccer.(Football) Fishing is up there too I believe. But sort yourselves out for your own enjoyment of BST V8's.

Now the middle east. Um, ............ sorry. Say "Sorry!" Yeah, If you all say "Sorry!" and have a big group hug, problem solved. ;)

Lol welcome back mike.

It's all good mate still loving it!
 
So Topic change :D
I did my first Testings. I must say the Track feels great with my Ford.
I did some major setup changings and ma that worked great.
1:30.730 as fastest with some room (had 0.5 seconds lead but screwed the 2nd last corner).
I hope them Audis aren´t as dominant as at GVS.

Races: R1: 9 Laps and R2: 28-30 (My Opinions on the length)

Can I nominate milldrum as our philosopher-in-residence. I don't think any other series has one of these!

I just got a 1:30.667 in practice. Not a lot more to come on race day except with a tow :D

The car feels ok, but it's so bloody hard on it's tyres because I have to run it heavy to get
any decent power out of it at 563pp

Thanks for the laps heads up King:tup: Seems to fit in with the general scheme of things will talk with gedi but sure thats fine.:)
No practice for me as yet 1:30's seem to be the benchmark then i see.

NP plus I posted my opinion in the Stewie group. (JB get yourself back in there !!)

But I already posted it here in this thread :D

@RP: I can do better but my race-pace is mid 1:30´s :D => I don´t eat through the Tires. But the last few laps before pitting are very twitchy (I hope I can make a 1 stopper => more testing needed).
