Championship cancelled due to parents, extremely slow internet..

Sorry there ... I didn't mean to get all serious As a young lad of 19 I wasn't there because of any noble higher purpose or anything, I was just drafted and did my time. I meant it to be funny actually since your reference was "Wait a minute .... I survived to be 19" and it made me think of my survival as a 19 year old :-) It did change my life however ... the government gave me money each month to go to college when I got out, so I did that for the next 6 years and that led to two degrees and a fulfilling career in motorsport Definitely worked out 👍

Congrats.

OK, just finished the first spec test at Indy Road. All cars were 400HP, 1200kg, 25/40 aero and laps were standing start:

TT: 1:41:0
A4: 1:41:3
Astra: 1:41:3
BMW: 1:41:4
CLK: 1:41:6

If we consider the different variables that have an effect (e.g small, human mistakes, natural over/understeer) it looks quite even from this, though I'll need to test at least 2 more tracks

 

[OneManRiot]

Any spaces left?

 

[rallymorten]

There's enough for a few drivers, shouldn't we say it that way? what car are you interested in driving?

 

[OneManRiot]

I think I will take the Audi A4...

 

[rallymorten]

As both you and curtex are W.M.A. members I'll put you on the W.M.A. reserved team unless you belong to different "major teams"

Edit: I noticed curtex was part of Mobil 1, but as Niz (sadly) no longer is (official at least) part of W.M.A. I take it as you're free. So now you'll just need to find a team name

Ok Cool..

Will think bout the team name and let you know...

Don't forget to agree with curtex on the name

 

[NizmoDr3]

Even tho things haven't worked out as planned, am I still up for the A4?

 

[TDZdave]

^^ last I heard us mobil1 boys were in the A4? But I will discuss this with my team leader lol

 

[rallymorten]

Ahh... good question.. We can do it this way and that will mean NO MORE SPACES AT AUDI

Edit: Official:

Both the Audi teams have "full grid". The team consisting of curtex and OneManRiot will run as Audi Team Joest (unless things change)

Still need a team name from ANFD and Driverone0one

 

[TDZdave]

^^ don't set that in solid concrete yet, I will chat with niz and go from there, I don't like seeing cars wasted lol,

Btw if I remember correctly the other audi team is call AUDI ABT SPORTSLINE I think lol

 

[Driver 101]

We need them Ninja's together.........lol.

Just kidding.....lol

 

[rallymorten]

@Dave, ANFD and 101 is driving CLK Mobil 1 Motorsport (the W.M.A. team) has one of the Audi spaces, the other is Audi Team Joest. But we can change it to all real teams like the WRC, no probs

 

[TDZdave]

Bah! I'm not fussed lol, but I best be sending niz a message lol

 

[curtex]

Im confused. Is the TT-R the same thing as the a4? Or did the TT get scrapped?

 

[TDZdave]

In real life DTM chose to take a more GT style approach to their cars, and audi wanted to drop the TT because it wasn't relevant to the DTM market and was already selling well, so they swapped it out,

@rally, mobil 1 racing are happy to use the TT audi,

 

[ITCC_Andrew]

D, what are you saying?! The CLK's SILVER, not black. It can't be Nissan Ninjas in a SILVER Mercedes.

 

[Driver 101]

hahahahaa......I know. Plus they leaving me all alone in the merc.

Considering I am old and grey.....maybe "The Silver Fox" is more appropriate here....lol

 

[ITCC_Andrew]

^^ This Windgat comes with experience!!

Seriously, Team Phoenix Motorsport vs. The Silver Foxes sounds interesting.

 

[TDZdave]

Bahahahaha, what would really annoy you is if I could get my mate lee to join us, he runs in the F10 league and also races cars, he's looking for a DTM championship to run if it fits to his rather busy schedule,

 

[ITCC_Andrew]

Would not annoy me. Would be another guy to bang doors- I mean race with.

 

[TDZdave]

Well.... I doubt it, he's looking to get into the real DTM series lol,

 

[ITCC_Andrew]

^^ Now I MUST race with him.

 

[rallymorten]

God I hate you and your mate Dave but wish him good luck from me

So, the Mercedes team is "Silver Foxes (Motorsport?)" or what?

 

[ITCC_Andrew]

^^ off-topic jibber jabber doesn't mean TOO much yet. However, I know ANFD & D101 well enough to think that they'll go with Silver Foxes.

 

[NizmoDr3]

Please just keep me in the loop as to when there are tests or Pre-Season or whatever ... need to get my car sorted and pace it against the field ... but if things go the way they are in Bankfin, then does anyone wanna join in the back of the field?

 

[rallymorten]

Don't worry, I'll keep you updated as to when there'll be the first test sessions. I'll just need to make sure cars are as good as equal on at least 2 more tracks (they were .6 difference at Indy which I think is close enough)

 

[Driver 101]

"Silver Foxes" was just a quick joke chirp....but hey, if my Team Mate is cool with it, then I am cool.

Been wanting to try the CLK for a while.........tell me, are all the cars gonna have the same output?
