<- BTCC-8 -> PleaseD1e Doubles Up! PAR Teams, Renault Manufacturers, canyondrifter IndependentsFinished

[mrbrendon999]

All of them so convinced they're gonna beat me to the Independents' title...

Your lucky I am going for drivers and teams this yr fully made sure alfa is ready, getting my own wheel may, and I am running a better conn this season

 

[Ian_83]

I'm guessing that everyone that took part last season can remember the epic pit lane block at the very first round (Spa) last season. @DirtyNurbKing58 did such an awesome job.......

I thought that this was the most amazing accident in the history of the BTCC, who would have thought that such a thing was possible.

Yesterday I did some testing at Tokyo and during a practice this happened:

I wonder who that could be, it couldn't be our old mate @DirtyNurbKing58 again could it? I swear to god he's practising so that he can recreate it again on the first round of season 8. My advice is to pit before he does.

I hope that you weren't running the better connection the other day when you kept DC'ing at Tokyo. Internet connections need to be near perfect for GT6, I have no idea why it's more fussy than GT5 but for some reason it is.

I've seen this post and am considering a ban.

Hey it called team work, block the pits so bean could make some ground up.

Hang on, we've got to hear the racing driver excuse first.

I'll have to put you down as a reserve for now, but I'm sure spaces will become available before the season or during the season 👍

 

[Gino Caberlin]

Ok

 

[sibbystiggy]

Ian: Looking at that second picture and reading ur post, I'm laughing my head off!

 

[canyondrifter]

Well if he does block the pits I'm not going to be the one who frees him from it again... Lol

It was great fun watching the replay back again. Possibly one of the best moments last season.

Ahh, that's a good one to use, there's only one problem with that excuse. You were the one suffering engine failures, so it could have been oil from your car. Loose sump plug perhaps?

 

[True-blue-8]

ah, good point
#28, i just suck

 

[nissman]

Cool name.

That a privateer team?

@Gino Caberlin will be taking my full time spot for United Nations Motorsports.

Looking for a team-mate or running independent?

 

[swiftsmith]

Currently looking for a teammate for him. So for now a independent.

 

[swiftsmith]

United Nations Motorsports is looking to run a possible 3 cars. 1 Team & 1 Independent driver. Your tunes would be supplied for you.

Still looking for 2 more drivers. Also @rolo912011 my team will be running Jaguars.

I can't give you another full-time space at the moment. Right now I only have one entry down for your team (Gino) and all 24 spaces are full. So unless you're happy for the team-mate to be either someone without a team right now, or who's prepared to be reserve, you may have to change your plans until a space might become free?

 

[swiftsmith]

I'm open to anything.

 

[rolo912011]

There are gonna have to be two or three off-weeks between now and the end of the season due to my work commitments. Will specify a bit later.

OK regarding this.... the following Thursdays are affected by my work commitments:

15th May (Pre-Season)
22nd May
29th May
5th June

Depending on what time I finish work each day (which I will hopefully find out later this week), there could be difficulties with all four of these Thursdays. If I need to work the longer shift on those days then I won't be home until around 7.15. If I don't need to, I can be back at 6.15 and therefore in time to go as usual at 6.45 for Pre-Q (I would hope).

The options are these really:

1. Move start time forwards one hour to 7.45pm each time this applies, then run as normal
2. Cancel the racing on these weeks and have off-weeks (basically enough to delay season start)

I appreciate some of you may not be able to make all the racing if it gets shunted forwards an hour, so I'm gonna need some input. At the very least, with regards to the pre-season week that's affected, I could make it so that no points are scored for taking part on that week to make it fair.

Depends what people can do. Views?

I am fine with anything, but I think delayed start or gap weeks is best

 

[sibbystiggy]

Team Unlicensed drivers are ready!
(Team colours: Black & Florescent blue)

 

[nissman]

I have no problem if we delay the start for 1 hour.
