That's a real shame, hopefully it will be fixed.


Also to add - if anyone who is racing hasn't done so yet, send me a PSN friend request so I can invite you to the lobby

I'm struggling to load the site mate, cant hold a connection to PSN at all, I'll keep checking the services updates to see if its fixed by race time,

Do you think the cyclone Stan at the top of W.A could be affecting the whole West and Central part of Australia?

[SK8RBOI]

I missed it. I was late as I was watching the daytona 24 hour.

 

[TDZdave]

Thanks for organizing that spooky, was a bit skeptical about the track and tire wear, but alls well that ends well, great courtesy from everyone on track, thoroughly enjoyed it, thanks again,

Hoping to see the results/replays once they've recovered (if all went to plan)

I missed saving my replay, (really needed to attend to the gentlemen's business) I believe Giant got it, I'm sure he will make a good vid

 

[Spooky Wooky]

Once again, great race from everyone, thanks.

I chose to start on hard tyres with the intention of lasting 40 laps then switching to softs for the last leg however things (as they rarely do) didn't go to plan. Got a McDonalds drive-thru for jumping the start so already I was on the back foot.
Tyres didn't last as long as I'd hoped and I was forced to pit at the end of lap 35, and change my tactics to a 2nd set of hards. This didn't bother me though, as I noticed other people struggling with soft throughout the first half of the race.

I seemed to spend the whole race in 5th and from lap 45 was trying to catch up with Glen who was 35 secs in front. By lap 55 Glen was a further 10 secs ahead, so with MAD/ICH both about a minute behind decided to pit for a set of softs and try to power to the end.

Coming back out the pits, Glen was now 1:17 ahead and I knew I had no chance of catching him. All I had to do was take it easy and bring the car home safely as ICH was 36 secs behind.
Easy right??? NO. 5 laps from the end I realise I don't have enough fuel to the end, so make a splash and dash and hope ICH doesn't get past.

Panic over as I come out the pits 20 secs ahead with 3 laps to go. Nothing else happens and I cross the finish line in 5th... or so I thought. It seems that Giant got DQ'd for some reason right at the end.

I'll take 5th/4th whatever it ends up as.

Here are the results I got. In game it was showing GiantSlayer_48 as disqualified.

 

[Spooky Wooky]

He was battling with DIOGO so who knows what happened? I saw someone go into the pits on the last corner, so maybe it was too many cuts? Who knows?

 

[Eyeseeh50]

Any plans for the next Enduro so I can add the info to the Facebook page?

 

[HammyMansell]

@Eyeseeh50, if @Spooky Wooky isn't planning anything for the next one, i was thinking of doing an enduro using Formula C. I already have a date, the 28th of February lol!!

But only if Spooky, nor anyone else isn't planning anything will i do it! 👍

He had to pit because he was low on fuel, and it ran out under AI control, the AI returned to the garage, thus DQ,

That explains it then.

Hammy you take the next one. I may do an hour of power type race like the ones we did a few months ago, so will keep it out of this thread. Spooky do you want to do next month's (March) enduro?

Ok cheers @JohnScoonsBeard, i'll confirm the combo in a day or 2, i wonna test a couple of things first. 👍

I loved that Audi GT3 "Dusk til Dawn" race that you hosted at Willow Springs a few months back!

Go for it @HammyMansell

As for March, before the race yesterday @DIOGOPINTO121 was chatting to me about doing a GT3/GT4 Ginetta, 2 hour wet and dry, day and night race which is a great idea, but will need a lot of testing beforehand.

@DIOGOPINTO121 - If you pick a date in March when you are free to host, I will help out as much as I can.
