I thought people had raced with new guys to make sure they were clean drivers ?

Although he does look like hes trying to get out the way, you should never cut across someone like that. He should of just took the inside line through the 1st corner If pipi was lapping him he could of just let off the gas on the home straight or the straight after the 1st corner. Changing direction like that leave the driver overtaking pretty much no time to react
 
Just for clarification....I tried to move as far outside as I could so he could take the inside like someone suggested ...

Instead of taking the inside pipi decided to follow me into a turn that I wasn't trying to make

If anybody else seen a car behaving the way mine was they'd be more cautious I'm sure

....but I definitely derserve some blame for not acting sooner
 
^ First I have to say that I admire your persistence, even if 7 laps down you did't quit the race, well done 👍

I was a little mad with you also, cus one of the times that I overtake you we had contact that cause me damage, but after watching the replay I've could have avoid it, I've thought you would be a little faster and on corner exit there were you.
The biggest problem that you have is lag, it's hard to tell were you are at a given moment

Anyway, some Fotos I've made.

The prob is, you don't move, you stop the car in the middle of the Track

The lag is something that is a problem for most of the drivers. I know that we have tried a lounge before and failed but i think we need to try again. we have nearly reached breaking point which may kill the series. wierdly enough i never have connection problems on a Monday but then its maybe due to numbers. Goruks rooms with speach enabled even stay more stable during practice. I dont understand it.
 
^yep, the diference is non-fixed host (less lag) race quality on hight (recommended) speech quality on normal , that's how I set the room up.
 
^ you can try that next race because I won't be there in Suzuka :grumpy: ....and I'm curious. I monitored my data throughput of my router yesterday and with 14 guests it did not reach more than 1/3rd (400kbit/s) of my upstream bandwidth. Don't get me wrong.... I favor the non-fixed host option also but only the ones with the better connections will benefit. In other words, we 'share' the lag with a fixed host. (besides the loading bar issues what was the reason in the first place)
 
Monaco+Heavy damage + Lag = not many drivers Lol,

I took pole with like 20seconds to spare lol
pity I lost the car near the end, the hards were gone cause I was trying to catch goruk! Could have been an epic final lap but he was too consistent. well done again :)
 
who won then?.....All I'm saying is Biffy is my hero for the move he pulled on me and goruk at the start on hard tires, I was keeping my distance cause a few people were lagging at the start and biffy went right round my outside I never even noticed him until he was in front of me and goruk lol

haha, I saw the opportunity and took it, and if my race had gone better it would have worked really well for my strategy, as I held you both up when you were both presumably on better tires (I hope :scared:), although I have to admit I did give Goruk less of a battle to get past me, after all he is my team-mate :sly: But you were patient and passed me quite fairly 👍

Well done to my team-mate Goruk as well, so much for Immortal Pilot being unbeatable :D

Low 1'55 I'm pretty sure 154 is do-able but just not put the practice in yet
 
I did a 1.56.7sec don't know if I can go any faster well see hopefully abit faster on raceday
 
Practice room CLOSED 1472 -6118 -3744 -3748 -9660

Goruk i have add you can you send me the audi tt pls??
I must test much with this car.
 
Might not be there tonight. Since symp is also out tonight we will need someone to run the show. Anyone? Might still make it hopefully.
 
I'm sure it will pretty much run it self everyone knows the rules now, me,goruk, pipi ect I'm sure will remind anyone who has forgot anything ....(Supra) lol. Not sure who is going to host I can do it, but if any of the new guys think they have really good broadband then nows the time to say.

all we need is someone with more than 15-20mbits of upload speed... i dont even reach 1...
 
You don't need that much of an upload speed, just a low ping to every client. Why don't you guys test out a non-fixed host solution tonight? I believe we did that once or twice in Goruk's lobby in the previous seasons.

PP penalties for tonight:
Goruk77: 597
A-Brick: 598
Toyotsupra: 599

Have a good, clean and fair race tonight guys!

(I like to see the replay! And a tip for the one who will check the replay: write down the times directly after finishing because it's a pain to gather this from the replay)

Yeah I agree non fixed tonight, unless someone with a really low ping and at least + 20mbits upload speed appears. Anyway I don't mind checking the replay and putting it in the dropbox( you may need to remind me how to do that LOL),
Also if I am checking the replay I will do it right after the race so if anyone has complaints for me to check, message me after the race otherwise It will be forwarded to JT/symp I won't be re-checking replays. If I'm disconnected or anything then someone else will need to save the replay but I do hope JT can make it :P
