Brett - Time to bring out the paddle for those little animals hehehehe but anyway
Pagey - I honestly forgot but I think Falcon set both pole and fastest time but no Hat Trick for him though

Race Recap:
Qualified for 4th, I didn't want to beat Sandman's time to save tires but race started and me and Sandman battled for 3rd through the 1st laps while Falcon and Artmann were pulling a gap but when it came to the straights I passed Sandman for 3rd and try to catch the leaders eventually a few laps later I saw Falcon spun and took 2nd and put on high revs to catch up to Artmann, by lap 5 Artmann pitted and I enjoyed a few moments of the lead and pitted in lap 7, tried my best to keep up with Artmann until we come across the AI and the constant yellow flag in S2, but the game glitched said it was green but as soon as I lapped Karthikeyan it said Yellow flag and got a drive-through penalty and served as soon as I can allowing Artmann to create a giant gap and Brett and Sandman to pass me putting me in 4th with Falcon behind me. Once I got out I activated "clutch" mode and try to get 2nd as 1st was out of reach, I passed Sandman when he pitted and try to catch Brett, we had a good battle for a few laps until he was taken out by Karthikeyan in front of my eyes and he spunned, I described the incident as "Karthikeyan was in the club doing the booty bump on Brett and cause Brett to fall, who knew Karthikeyan wanted to be a black female :D" but anyway it was down to the last few laps and my goal was to hold on to 2nd place but next thing I know Falcon running on full revs was quickly gaining on me so I had to put on full revs for the remainder but on lap 27 d'Ambrosio must've caused Falcon to spin or something cause after I lap him and went into S2 he went from 1 to 7 seconds behind me and then the rest was history.

Qualified for 4th, Finished in 2nd, Overall Tied for 1st, now to prepare for China
 
I wasn't as far off the pace as I was at Australia, which is good.

Time to get practicing for China!
 
Great reports guys, :lol: at the prospect of wordup getting a drive through for getting taken out by our buddy Karthykeyan.
You will have to wait another day for the OP guys, sorry I just pulled a 16 hour shift :(
 
Get some rest Brett, I don't think anybody is worried about updating the opening post buddy.

Does tuning make any difference to the cars performance? I've been running the stock setup so far.

Also is there a way to make the steering have more feel, because I can't seem to make it work, I put ff all the way up but still it feels lose and not direct?

Tuning makes a massive difference in terms of confidence, that's what I found anyway.
I was always on edge driving around fast corners with stock setup because the back end felt like it could go any second, I looked for a setup and the car felt sooo much nicer to drive, and more planted.
Meaning I could actually push the car.

So in short, yes :)

As for the steering I think that's just the gameplay, a slight lack of connection with the car. I've tried to improve it but couldn't
 
@ Pagey thanks, I guess I better get to work tuning then:)

Yeah the poor steering feel is the only thing that's kept me away from these f1 games, guess I better get used to it.

Check the sticky threads at the top of the f1 2011 forum mate. 👍

As for steering, do you use a wheel? If so i will find out my settings for you.
 
Yeah, I use a wheel to play.

I tried it on both of my wheels and it made no difference, just feels like the ff is off at slow speeds and is very indirect.

If you get me your wheel settings Sandman I would love to try them out.
 
Hey troops, OP is updated with only 1 mistake :( No time to sort it now as I am off to work again, if I am off wednesday Ill try and arrange a couple of races for whoever is available. It will be about 830-1030 ish 👍

I think your brain might be confuddled from lack of sleep, you will be racing Wednesday night anyway because it's race night :P

I was running around in the FGT earlier on GT5, I miss it :(

Yeah mang that was fun :lol: his name was Chav_zak, he was asking for it
I've taken to joining those road law rooms, getting in my tank car and driving on the wrong side very fast. They do actually get very wound up when 3.5 tonnes smashes into them head on :D

Yes! Me and CheeseLepricorn used to do this. People get so angry but it's hilarious if they have a mic on :lol:
 
I love how this season in f1 7 drivers won in 7 different circuits, lets go for an 8 for 8.

AUS - Jenson Button
MAL - Fernando Alonso
CHN - Nico Rosberg
BHR - Sebastian Vettel
ESP (SPN) - Pastor Maldonado (Surprised me)
MON - Mark Webber (My favorite Aussie 👍)
CAN - Lewis Hamilton (Favorite Driver IRL but virtually by worst enemy)
Who will win @ Valencia? Come on Kimi
 
Still no ps3 for me :(. So unfortunately I must drop out of the series. I'm sorry guys. I was really looking forward to racing with you.

Spurgy how many times did it take you to beat my time on GT Academy? :lol:

A few, after I did a 1.32.2 I kept messing up the last few corners, so I tried for like 20-30mins getting frustrated until I gave up, then jumped on an hour ago and beat it in 5 goes :lol: still 0.8 seconds off first though :(
 
I'm going to give it another crack tomorrow, it's the last 5 corners i'm having problems with as well. It's good fun :D
 
Flooder- Sorry to hear that mate, your a fair driver 👎 let us know if you get it sorted 👍
 
Pagey - Spurgey has been excessively sweating the final round all day yesterday :lol:
 
...to the point of saying "what did you think of the England game spurgy" he replied "what game.....?"

You cannot be serious!
 
That awkward moment when the loading screen for a FIFA Ultimate Team match crashes and neither me or him want to quit the game because we'll lose our DNF (did not finish) multiplier!

It's now a waiting game...
