Upgraded my router today. Scared that I might regret it later :embarrassed:

Upgrading mine was one of the best things I've ever done.

The Race Lounge is OPEN! Qualifying will start at 10pm EST. Be sure to change your oil before the race, especially if you ran on Tuesday. I lost 3 ponies.

Forgot to change my oil, down to 133 at the end. Horrible two races at monaco, a shame to end on such a miserable race. I'll be back next time though.
 
We were visited by the Cappuccino Nija Wiifreak tonight, he came from the shadows and promptly put the victory out of reach. Quite a dominating win with a pole time well under 1:47. Thanks to everyone for their cooperation with the hiccup at the beginning. One more race tomorrow, qualifying will start at 3pm. Hope Iforce can make it so he can have one more stab at the title.

Definitely a great race tonight for almost everyone, especially for me! Brandon had me worried though, I think you were catching me rather quickly before pit stops, so I spent the whole second half of the race driving in my mirror looking for you... I had no idea I had as much time in hand as I ended up with.

I ran a much better race tonight than I did on Tuesday, car much more dialed in (Thanks Owens) and I was 30 seconds quicker overall for the race distance than I was on Tuesday. No complaints here!

I'm bummed that I have to work tomorrow and can't make the final race, I can already feel the end of season withdrawal coming on... lol

Care to pass on any tuning tips? I'm struggling to keep it under 1:50.
 
Turn everything up to 11. 👍

Oh, and put some elf blood in your fuel tank. :sly:

I'll have the neighbours complaining!
And over here in Ireland, I can only get leprechaun blood. Is that a good substitute?

Yes, but you'll need twice as much of it. And if a rainbow appears there's no telling where you Capp might end up.


 
I've been sick since Thursday. Going to try to make the race, but it'll probably consist mostly of staying out of everyone's way.
 
The Race Lounge is OPEN! Come on out for the last race of the 3.0 season! Qualifying will start at 3pm EST, one mandatory pitstop on any lap except the final one. Be sure to change your oil before heading out to Monaco. ;)

Congrats to DSGERBC on the victory and on winning the Championship. It's been an interesting season and we've learned a lot. I'm working on some exciting plans for the next season but in the mean time I also have an idea to keep the Capp racing going during the off-season. Stay tuned for details!

EDIT: I'm also planning on sending everybody that participated in a race this season some paints, a little something for the holidays. ;)

Update the points!!!

I will when I can get to my actual computer, can't do the google docs on my phone. If RDAardvark has time he might be able to but I think it's close to 11pm over there. At a glance, I think you probably moved up to 7th. 👍
 
Congrats to dsg for winning the title.You should win an extra prize for the most miles driven on your quest for points ;).

I guess i should have run again at Rome after getting dumped into the wall in the Tuesday 2nd race but hindsight is always 20-20.

Overall it was a fun season and i'll be watching to see what the future brings.I have a few thoughts about some tweaks to the series but that can wait until later.

If anybody wants them i will post my setups from this season.
 
If enough people ask I'll post the setup I've been using for two seasons with the exception of Indy Oval.
 
IforceV8
If anybody wants them i will post my setups from this season.

I would quite like to see them as well iforce, would like to compare with what I was doing at each track.
 
Had a great season with all of you guys. Thanks for all the great memories and races. With each and every last one of you this wouldn't of been what it was.

Let's hope this great group of racers stays together and we get more racing fun in the Alfa's!!

The. Hopefully cycle back into some Cappucino. Or maybe we go faster. ;)

Anyway. Look forward to seeing you guys on track soon.

Indeed, I had gone to bed! But my lovely, dearest darling 4 year old got me up at 7 this morning. 🤬 So, the race results for Friday and Saturday have been updated as has the overall standings. Any errors are down to Mickey Mouse Clubhouse being on!

Congratulations to dsg on winning the championship. Definitely need to get some of that elf blood - You were flying at Monaco!

And thanks also to iForce for sharing his setups. I need all the help I can get with tuning, so these will be studied in the off season. I'd love to compare them with Lancer's as well. Hope you're feeling better today Lancer.

Where can I file my official inquiry with the Mickey Mouse Clubhouse? Either I'm lacking sleep, or lacking 8 points from round 6.
 
!@$$%!#@$!@#%!@#%!@#%

I hate Comcast.

Congratulations to DSG on winning the Cup. I wish I was there to see it.

Comcast's internet service was unavailable in my area for the past few weeks. So, that's why you didn't see me at all. You guys don't know how bad I really wanted to see this Cup through to the end. At least I wasn't up on the points board up to screw anything up.

Hopefully Comcast will allow me to come back next season, or during the holidays when everyone gets some new toys to test out.

Also, I want to thank everyone who helped me out starting my first season online. All the tips, set-ups, and one-on-one help was really above and beyond what I expected to find from a Series I blindly entered to see what the buzz was about. I really had fun, thanks everyone.

And how ironic is that the one mistake I made had to be with your score?
Mickey was unavailable for comment but Goofy here is hanging his head with shame.:dunce:
