Davey's Weekly Race 12/16/02

[milefile]

Here are last weeks results:

Maloot....................1:10.461
Pupik.......................1:11.372
daddygary...............1:12.644
milefile.....................1:12.670
Askia47...................1:12.860


Here is the running total:

pupik........................59
milefile.....................44
askia47....................29
maloot.....................15
daddygary................5

The running total is sorta pointless since most do not participate every week. It doesn't really represent anything.

Does anyone have an opinion about making the races longer, like two weeks? Just a thought.

This weeks race will be [R]Lotus Esprit GT1 at SS Rt. 5.

Altezza LM
12.757
21.414

I love you.

 

[Davey]

I love him more, considering I race this all the time.

1:08.893 is my running time.

 

[Davey]

...Wait, you said Esprit.

Oh well, I still love you. A Lotus is a Lotus.

 

[Malloot]

Woow! Great one! Started right away, 1:12:356 @ 307 km/h.

 

[milefile]

Well if nobody objects we'll let this one go for two weeks. I figure that way we can ask questions (if needed), share settings, etc.

I'm getting more and more into the MR thing. I used to not like them... too tricky. But now I'm getting it.

 

[askia47]

1:10:453 Not bad really

 

[milefile]

That's a pretty darn good start.

 

[Malloot]

I'm at 1:11:7xx now, but when your in 1:10, that's one great lap then, I don't think it'll go much faster than that.

 

[FuJi K]

well......

Hey Milefile,
You got my vote to let this one last for two weeks, sence my time to run the races each week is rare until my time off during
the Christmas Holidays. Now, got a question? What is the cut off
time you look for on Saturdays? And in your answer, please include your time zone. Thanks!!

I'll have a time in a little bit. My usual Monday's-when-I-hit-the-track times are nonexistant because I've been rather sick lately.

Darn flu!

I wasn't able to better my Altezza time last week; but I think Malloot had beaten my time into submission.

I'll have a go, as usual, though.

 

[milefile]

I post the results on Monday mornings at 7:00 AM Mountain Time. Any time before that is fine.

 

[DaddyGary_2002]

Hey Eric,
Thanks for the setting me straight on the deadline time, because I was thinking that all the times supposed to be in sometime on Saturday. And I knew that you live in Phoenix, but I wasn't sure if your time was one or two hours behind mine. We are on Central Daylight time here. But, now I know that I'll have at least until late Sunday night or early Monday morning to get my times in now.
Have you taken over the job of moderator here now? I know that you are doing a fine job, sense you have been creating the races. I've also noticed that you are still improving your times sense you have made the change over to the analog mode. Keep it up, man, cause you are doing great.
Now, I have a time to give to you. It is 1:12.059 @189.91.
I seem to have liked the Lotus Esprit GT1 better than the Lotus Elise GT1. I still need to do more tweaking on the gears, to get around the 1:11.xxx.

 

[Malloot]

Finally broke the 1:11 barrier: 1:10:783 @ 192.50 mph!

 

[Pupik]

I'm at 1:11.216 in my first 20 laps...but I'm getting sleepy again (darn flu still annoying me). More is definately possible, it wasn't the cleanest lap by any means.

 

[milefile]

Maybe one of you guys who consistently wins might share your settings?

 

[MidusGT]

Looks like I'll be out of the racing loop for the rest of December...good racing with you guys and good luck all!

[Malloot]

Well I'm not winning consistently, but I'm not sharing settings either. I wouldn't mind telling them by the way.

 

[Pupik]

I owe a ZZII setting to milefile, anyway.

I promise is a promise.

 

[milefile]

I am consistently three seconds behind the leader in these races. Always three seconds. I'm hoping it's because I didn't start learning how to tune until recently. And it seems like when I finally get a setup that is obviously better and will afford me an opportunity to improve a lot, the race is over.

 

[FuJi K]

My pts!!!! does this mean i have to start stacking my points up again?
