Yes, I also think that there was a lot of cutts that was not reported in my races. And life is not always fair, not even videogames :)

For me, the main thing is that if we use a 2 wheel inside the white line rule. There will be no openings for cutts that has an impact on the result. As it is for now, I can cut the last corner in Trial mountain and take the win, cause it's legit..

This is the part that I don't like. That if I get overtaken in that last corner in trial mountain because of a cut, there is nothing I can do about it. Since we are all clean drivers as you say, that rule would only be for good. 👍

But I do understand all your arguments as well 👍

Hopefully when we get to Trial Mountain, PD has get us the
possibility to cut that out.

Now in Suzuka we´re gonna try that "white line rule", and when U
drive out of the pits, you´re not allowed the cross the white
line either. For repeating corner cutts we give 10 secs penalty.

But as I´m sure You understand, I havent got the time to watch these. So please, if somebody sees something, take a photo of the cutting as evidence.

This is for new Guys as also a reminder for older Guys.
Read this carefully ----> https://www.gtplanet.net/forum/showthread.php?t=111241

Think we´re going though to skip the "Gentleman Rule" in the
Race, because its hard to say if there was contact or not. So
I suggest that we race normally, and watch the replays then after the Race instead.

Heres a few tips for everyone:

1. Be careful in the first corner.Its a long race, there comes
opportunities for overtaking many many times.
2.Be careful the first laps, as your car has cold tires.
3.If there isn´t room, don´t try to overtake. It will most sure
lead to a collision and penalties.
4.Drive with the track map set to 1 or 2. You will see were
everyone is , when yuo´re defending your position.
5. You are only allowed to change line once when somebodys
slipstreaming.Do it twice or goin like a snake results in 5 sec penalty.
6.Respect members of the other Teams also.
7.Thank You for reading.:)

Corner-cutting rule added for try-out at Suzuka:

You have to keep always 2 tires inside or on the white line.
Cutting once 3 secs penalty, repeatidly 10 secs.
The same when coming out of the pits, you must stay inside
the white line there also.

Hi Team Sweden!

I´m also a Swede. Do You accept me in Your Team.
I have driven under 1´10.xxx at the Suzuka. It would
be nice if You accept me in Your Social Group as well :)

I live this week in RamoSapiens house, but I wont tell
him any secret set-ups or strategies that You have.

I think this guy is scamming us ;) He want to know our strategys!

Or am i wrong? Kinda paranoid here :P

Also i read the rules and the 2 wheels inside rule is kinda unfair. What if you make a mistake and dont gain anything. but have lets say 4 wheels outside the track.
Then you get penalty and plus you made a mistake? thats not really fair in my opinion. But i guess you arent that hard if someone makes a mistake?
we are not perfect :) i often make mistakes. try not to........

Pelle "Mullvaden" Pörtefors --- Welcome to Team Sweden.

We are currently on a training camp in the Tonga Islands. Just go there. When you get there, just shout "here is Mullvaden", and we will find you, eventually.
 
Yes. I also think its messy with too much rules.
I wish that the game itself could take care of these
issues.

No penalties for goin wide by mistake though.
I think more if someones using all the time the
same place to gain time, then we´ll give penalties.

PS. I knew that all the focus will be around this
corner-cutting when someone took it up....:indiff:

There are more worries now that we should focus
on with the new q and start procedure.
 
Regarding corner cutting, here is what I think and its probably similar to Eppe's view.

No penalty for the occansional misstake. But if a driver is viewed as cutting a corner as part of his normal driving line, then penaly should be given.

Nobody will review the replay, look at all cars to catch potential corner cutters. Someone will have to flag a protest to another driver giving some facts. Then it should be specifically reviewed and if wrong, penalty given. Don't know how much. But it should be significantly bigger than the time gained by cutting the corners.

Nice idea!

Yeah just keep it simple. I dont even think it will be a problem. Noone is going to be stupid enough to keep cutting corners when there is such close racing and everyone can see each other, dust being kicked up etc.
If you see someone doing it over and over then just report it after the race and it can be looked at.

In other news....pre race will be good I hope everyone can find there grid slots on the formation lap, should be straightforward. 👍
 
How about all getting together for practice tonight at 20GMT?

We could test the q and start procedure and go for 1 test race,
just to see how it will work. I´m also curious about peoples
connections. Think if somebodys having NAT 3 or using wireless
they should fix it by Thursday.

U could also use pingtest, I understand that it is more important
than bandwith. Pingtest---> http://www.pingtest.net/
U could test UK, L.A, Fin, Den and Swe. For ex. If U live in Sweden,
test the ping to the other countries that is in this series.
I took L.A also ´cause Masi(DEN) lives there I suppose.

Think if the results is A, there shouldn´t be any problems.

EXAMPLE: Fin to U.K

Yes im up for a practice session tonight, ive got an average ping of 60 to Norway, sweeden, denmark etc.

did Los A = 174 (i thought it would be worse)

Ofcourse you don't get a penalty going off the track! It's only if you gain on it.

Just a simple misjudgement will not give you a penalty.
 
I might join around 9 pm GMT if you are still driving by then. Have not yet bought the yellowhat.. Need to do that and brake the engine in.
 
Everyone knows the time trial rules. Atleast one tire on the curb. Like not all tires on the grass. I think that is enough.

And it is not cutting, if u don´t gain anything.
 
I've been trying for a good couple of hours now and I don't seem to be able to get under 55's. :( I know I'm loosing a good .3 to .4 in the first section mainly because I cut the chicanes earlier then needed be but even when I think I'm doing a good 2nd section I still never manages to get below 55's. And, in all fairness, when I do 55's I might be considered cutting the last chicane, even though if I do it offline it still O.K's the time? Two wheels on track but.. Yeah, I'll definitely not take the same line in the race, just to make sure. :) I'm not going to be any competition for top ten this race, but race I will!

(And thanks for letting me join in, btw! Didn't say that in my previous post.) (=
 
WE NEED MORE DRIVERS HERE-----> https://www.gtplanet.net/forum/showthread.php?t=172473

Xanor, I have totally forgot Your first price from last saturdays Tour :indiff:

Which car do You want, so I can send it to You.? 👍

Really i race just for fun and i think that although you always host great races you should not give your cars away. You can keep the money and just let me enjoy the pride :-D
Thanx anyways though!
 
I can´t drive anymore...I got yesterday a G27 for a try-out. I didn´t learn how to drive with it.

Now the sweet Lady from the Post Office bringed me today my new Fanatec wheel. Well I can´t drive it either.

So I went back to the DFGT which I have used now for a week or so since my old DF Pro got some issues.

Guess what, I can´t even drive that anymore now when i´ve messed up with the two new ones.:crazy:
