rolo am i aloud to hire a resevre driver?

Yeah you can hire someone to cover for you. Hell, if Joe and kartman get forfeited this week, which is very very likely, then your reserve could probably race full time as a second driver, and I could move your team into the Teams' Championship (although this will mean you can't score Independent points any more) 👍

No pit window infringements this week.

2 full-time spaces now available.

Joe and kartman's seats forfeited. They are welcome to sign back up if they want to drive, but it is a free-for-all.

Rob's not racing this Friday either, so for one round only there's 3 spaces available.

Perhaps we should advertise in the thread title?

Seems like it's been clean tonight guys, at Tuskaba no mean feat. Well done to all who raced. 👍

Driving what and for who jb?

1 permanent space left. 2 spaces left for next Friday.

Is this as it stands now?

My team mate from a previous series is interested in joining up.

I can't make it on the 2nd Nov (100%) and at the moment next week is 50/50 (but after that I'm good every Friday) so he'd be my reserve for that (if it is ok) but ideally he'd like to join full time, We would then form a team and I'd move from the independent to the teams championship.
 
V8-Johnboy
Still in the Audi Rolls just making the numbers up. Can cover for you and Gedi as and when otherwise no team.:)

Audi felt like it had a big Turbo on it last night :)

Race 1 was good and I really enjoyed it but race 2 felt like everyone was blocking tapping steering into me which caused my driving to be a bit erratic.

All in all a nice 1-2 & 1-3 from Team V8 :)

Yes it is.

If your mate wants to sign up now he can come in full-time straight away and fill the last space. 👍

OK jb, you're down as independent. 👍

Please get your stewarding complaints in today. I'm hoping everything can be done ready to release results/points tomorrow.

Stewards: Should I post the stewards' report?

Cool.

I'll drop him a link to the tread so he can sign up.

Anybody else think the replays from yesterday were pretty boring? Although I wasn't on my own they just seemed so boring.

Really hope this track doesn't make an reappearance!

Were definitely less eventful than I expected them to be.

I guess Tsukuba wasn't too bad, but I doubt it's popularity is high. Still, the S4 track vote will punish tracks we don't like :sly:
 
Stewarding Report from Tsukuba:

The stewards reserve the right to add further penalties later in the weekend.

Race 1:

rabbit_9-8 - Crashing into BosZ at Turn 2, Lap 11 - warning
TheBosZ1981 - Crashing into rabbit at Turn 2, Lap 7 - warning & 5 second penalty
sc61jgw - Crashing Geeky30 on the last lap, not waiting - warning
Geeky30 - Crashing Weezy_7 on two occasions (Lap 6 & 18) - warning

Race 2:

gedi69 - Nudging Weezy_7 off track on Lap 5 - warning

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

All drivers have the right to appeal. If you want to appeal please do so as soon as possible.

The only change to results so far is that BosZ drops from 8th to 9th in Race 1.

It's 2 penalty points, but these points are not taken away from your championship points. It's separate.

Remember all that 6 points will earn you a week's holiday. sc61jgw is now on 4 points.

Ah ok not too bad then
 
Provisional Standings: (subject to any further stewarding)

1. gedi69 - 112pts
2. killa_kandy - 80pts
3. skengdigi - 80pts

Obviously I'll do full tables when all is done.

How's the top 3 teams looking
 
We'd be on 170 so far, with eBay on 156 I think. Haven't put it in writing yet though.

VW Racing have probably taken 3rd off Fronzini, considering the Mazdas had a bad day.

Stewarding Report from Tsukuba:

The stewards reserve the right to add further penalties later in the weekend.

Race 1:

rabbit_9-8 - Aggressive driving against BosZ, race long - warning
TheBosZ1981 - Aggressive driving against rabbit, race long - warning & 5 second penalty
sc61jgw - Crashing Geeky30 on the last lap, not waiting - warning
Geeky30 - Crashing Weezy_7 on two occasions (Lap 6 & 18) - warning

gedi69 - Nudging Weezy_7 off track on Lap 5 - warning

I don't absolutely agree on this decision,rabbit in some points spun me volontary and I chose to do not say anything,that's not a way of being aggressive but only for regulary defending my position because if I do an aggressive driving I would have spun off other drivers.
 
rolo912011
OK I'll get killa to provide a second opinion.

More penalties are possible.

Its not a matter of penalities,its a matter of be clear in sense of regulamentations. I repeat that if my driving seems too aggressive I think I will not change my driving style,and if I have to change it, many others there should do so.
 
To be fair I think your warning and time penalty came from crashing into the back of rabbit into Turn 2, which isn't about defending, it's about braking too late and causing an accident.

-----------

paleschi has been given a warning and 10 second penalty for crashing into karsten and pushing him into the gravel at Turn 1 on Lap 7, Race 1.

You wrote generically aggressive driving,not this single episode,that are two different things. However I'm still in appeal. I apologize for that single episode but that's not an apologize for my "aggressive" line.
