Is that what you run?

1st race reverse championship standings and 2nd race slowest first?

That's exactly how we do it at present. We line up the Race 1 grid manually through chat (after I've posted the grid during the week), and then Race 2 is reverse grid based on R1 results.

Works like a treat 👍

Ah I ok, I did wonder what you guys where doing at the start of race 1, thought you were lining up for a photo or even a rolling start! lol

Is a interesting way of dong it tho.

It is a very good way coz it's the V8 way :lol:
 
I'm pulling my entry back. The race on Friday made everthing clear. To sum up:

Yes, I may have been defending my position using the Seat BUT YOU ALSO HAVE TO TAKE SOME 🤬 RESPONSIBILTY! Putting it on other drivers instead of saying "I could've done it otherwise" (Furi S1) is being the childish one in this situation.

Turn 1 incidentd has to be fixed. Although it's touring car and small taps are part of we all with very few exceptions see our cars bumper cars on lap 1. I'm sorry for the tap Gedi but in mypoint of view it was really nothing more than that and saving a slide in a 4wd should be easier than how it was done. I'm not saying I didn't hit a bit too hard but the mutual respect is VERY low here in Bumper-/Troll Car Championship

Rant over
 
Well it looks as if SKD420 has fallen off the face of the Earth, so... there's a space - what do you want to drive?

Rally I went round outside to avoid everyone then you pushed me off yes I could of corrected if you didn't keep plowing into me which sent me into a spin. Watch the replay and you will see!

And what do you mean about taking responsibility? Watch the replay mate I done nothing wrong!!

You have no respect for other drivers! FACT.

Well I was happy with the S4 set up that I made yesterday but I've just realised that there already 4 of thos in the series!

I'll run as a indy, I'm just gonna watch F1 quali so ill do some testing after ill post later if that's ok?
 
Indeed, no more Audis left :indiff:

OK, that means rabbit and Melancholy will be independents too. Got a name for your independent outfit?

Sure, let us know 👍

Correct i watched it live and was following Gedi hense my "unbelievable" post at the start of the race.:crazy:
 
Ok,


I've been building and testing rides on Autumn Ring this afternoon, had fun with the BMW but it has the potential to be quite tail happy and on worn tires and I think I'll struggle.

As I'm running as a indy I'm gonna go with the Focus ST as nobody else is running that, Colour scheme of sky blue body with orange rim's, team name Team Gulf Racing

:)

Awesome choice! Welcome to BTCCOC 👍

Current status updated.

Depending on where JoeTruckV8 decides to ride (the Audi S3 isn't available any more, and the Audis are full anyway :sly:), then either rabbit or Melancholy will be your independent challengers. If Joe wants to be independent too then there'll be four of you 👍

--------------------------------

I'm up for pre-season racing next Friday. Which circuit? Hard to say 'non-calendar track' because nobody knows the calendar yet... :dunce:

Standard race followed by 50% wet static, anyone?

Regarding stewarding for S3, what do people think about stewards issuing warnings for publicly calling out drivers for incidents, rather than PM'ing stewards? It could stop bickering on chat and improve driver respect.
 
Are you sure you don't want to vote for 10? Can't really accept your vote without it, otherwise the points would become really biased 👍
 
My votes at long last:

Tsukuba
Suzuka
Autumn Ring
Nürburgring GP/D
SSR5
Grand Valley Speedway
Laguna Seca
Grand Valley East
Cape Ring - South
Nürburgring Nordschleife
 
Madrid. End of post. :lol:

So, if I'm not on Rally's team, I can still stay on that team? ¡SEAT ganará! :lol: Toro Rojo SEAT was the team...

Check out the series 3 thread,

I'm pretty sure that's the plan, run the Seat as a indy......
 
This post is mainly "aimed" at Gedi but I think you others would want to be aware of this too.

I'm willing to put a very theatrical end to our "fight". Nothin' special, a lap around Nordschleife at night in a spec car (which means all driver) with no AID's. It's just I think we went a bit too far (including me) and being the racers we are this is probably the easiest way to solve it.

Yes, the idea is taken from Tokyo Drift but it's been altered :)
