Unfortunately I am going to be extremely busy at the time of the race, so I will race the next round instead. Good luck to all who take on the Corkscrew this weekend - I look forward to commentating on it!
 
just been out in the car doing some testing, thought to myself "god this car is tail happy around here, why am i spinning every lap through sector 3?? must be the weight shift..." goes to setup window to change setup, realised I've been driving around on intermediate tyres :) :banghead: still a 1:25.0 on IM tyres and very very side ways is a great way to learn the track
nice time on intermediate man! you're going to be flying tomorrow night. i found the Chev better to drive and faster to for coming track. good luck mate.
 
Hey guys getting online now, will have a private room open, psn id MTLA1984 if you haven't already :)

That sucks, but I look forward to hearing you commentate the races and do an excellent job as usual :)
 
Here is the update graphics for the car specs to make things slightly easier to pick up.

Also, I will be making an announcement tomorrow in regards to round 4 at Brands Hatch.

Date Change Announced For Round 4 at Brands Hatch

After a number of discussions between the management of the CORE Australian V8Supercar Championship and the Brands Hatch circuit. It has been decided that the 4th round of the series at the iconic English circuit will be rescheduled for the 10th of May.

The move will mean that the series will effectively have a British double header, with the British V8 TT taking place one week later at the Silverstone Circuit.

"There were a number of pros and cons for holding the event either at its currently scheduled date or to reschedule it in line with Silverstone race," Said Series Organizer ItzRacing. "Logistically for the Australian and other teams outside of England, it means we will have a more cost effective operation allowing teams, pit crew, cars and drivers to remain in England instead of returning home. The extra break after also gives the organization extra time to refine the BoP for the remainder of the season. It also gives some of the teams further down the grid and opportunity to take a break, and test and refine their package."

Race formats for both rounds will remain unchanged for both races along with the remainder of the calendar.
 
A win and two third places. I'll take that. Could have done better but panels rub and sand flies! Thanks for the great racing guys, I'll be sending my incident report tonight.
 
Not a great night of Racing that's for sure.
Lagged out and Rushed.

Qualifying - It showed on my TV no display of nothing. No Speedo, No Fast Lap Time Display, No Gear Change, No Map...Nothing. Just a view of the Track with witches hats on the track and Signs missing. And theres NOTHING wrong with my connection. All Devices are turned off on race night with Cache cleared.

I know theres no typing in chatbox in time trial, and i have never broke those rules since day 1 even last season.
But i had to say something hoping others may face the same issue and preying for a restart of time trial. But of course, all i get is told off. The end of time trial showed blank placings. I had to ask what place i came to line up after another time out at the start of Race 1.

In the past series ITZ and the rest of us work together to make all this work, quickly creating a new room, PS Reboot. We always manged to get everything how it should, meaning we can see all cars after the fix. But tonight, all we got from memto, was JUST GO! Seriously? I didn't practice my ass off for a Horse **** of a night. We were always told to speak up if somethings not right, and i did, and nothing was done about it. I wanted to Reboot, i even asked to, though i couldnt, or i would of missed Qualifying. All this messed with my head and race form tonight, and just not happy about it all. Even with the no 10 Minute breaks tonight, if you write we get 10 Minute breaks, give it to us please. I'm a bloody stay at home Dad, i tell my 3 year old to hold off and wait till the break so i can see to her needs and put her back to bed. But not tonight, apparently the race was running a tiny bit late, so no breaks! Or someone wanted the races over quickly for some reason, so we suffered for it!

I'm sorry, but something could have been done about tonight's race. In my eyes, it was completely unfair that our Points suffered because of what happened. I so wished i could of rebooted or something or we at least could of attempt to try and fix the issue many drivers had, they were letting you know about the issue. I know you cant get a 100% perfect connection, but this was by far out of hand tonight, and im sorry about this post, but no one is any higher up than the other. Again sorry, i'll go cool off i guess. ;)

EDIT: Ok i'm over my hissy fit. Looking forwards to next round :scared:

Cheers.

The whole room connection was messed up, I dropped a second between memto's room and Itz's room, for me at least if there's cars on track that I can't see my grip is affected.

I had a full reboot and a couple of rejoins,no other devices running, and the same people were loading all the time.

Santu and octimuss seem to have these issues quite frequently with multiple dc's and rejoins...probably didn't help was the fact Itz's room had no signal bars at all, at least for me anyway.

Anyway, onwards and upwards to the next round!

It's never as bad if the affected cars don't see each other, the problems start when 1 can and 1 can't.

Yeah, for myself, it was a pretty good night. I felt I definitely improved on my performance at Monza.

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

I understand the frustration from you guys and it was very frustrating for me as well with dc's unfortunately some of us dont have all night (Australia), others have the rest of their day that they need to get on with (English) and others are just plain and simply tired from having to be up early (USA).

The problem is though, MTLA and memto probably should have better connections than mine. But for some reason they cant get more than 5 cars in a room. Otherwise i would let one of them host.

I apologise for the lack of breaks, I obviously didnt understand your situation but I really wanted to get things running before @justquality or @SAI SANTOSH disconnected again. I knew that once we got things up and running they were usually able to get through the race.

We have a bit of break now, so I'll be looking at a number of options to help improve things. I'll be in touch with everyone in the coming days through private message.
 
Well Guys, I should have had the night off . . . I had no practise, no car set up and no speed . . . ah well . . . i'll do an incident report after i review the replays - the two I will apologise for is 1: in race 2 I think - I contacted with my team mate Heidi and then a bit down the track he spun . . . probably trying to catch time . . . and santu . . . in race 3 when you were up the inside of me . . . I gave you race room - but hit the gas a little too hard and she slid on me and contact you . . . sorry mate . . . I was really struggling and pulled over when the leaders and rest of pack were coming through to make sure I didn't ruin anyone's else night! Hahahaha

So is the next night the 10th May?? I'm away racing 7hrs from home that Sunday so won't make it back until around midnight and then up for work at 5 . . . ah well . . . apologies to anyone I got in the way of . . .

Yes, that's fine. You have a week after the racing to do you incident report, but it is of course better for everyone to get them in asap so we can finalise results and points. :)

Well, I recorded commentary for the race tonight alongside @Chozza_32 tonight - Awesome stuff guys!

The video should be up very soon, hope you enjoy it!

I'm definitely looking forward to watching the action tonight, having taken part in some of the action, I know how exciting the coverage will be.
 
good timing...i just refreshed youtube as it appeared. nice work Memto, CORE, @adam46 and @Chozza_32 . time to watch the drivers i couldn't see, cheers ;)

EDIT: its certainly great watching the whole field racing hard in this video. nice job CoreTV and all Drivers.

Race 3, stand out drivers Memto89 massive win, Congrats. ITZRacing huge come back, and Mikey great racing all 3 races.

Np killing I can understand... :)

Cheers Mate.

I probably went over board and should not of reacted like i did. As much as this series is meant to be fun. Which it is fun...But we have 10+ Drivers Hungry for a season Win!
Pretty strict Rules which is fare. Cars that are all not quite equal and Connection issues.
Once those Lights turn green, The Competition is Fierce. I should be happy i at least may gets some points for the last round.

See you all next round ;)
