I am going to grab something to eat first so I don't get distracted later when racing. I shall set up a room at about 1pm if thats okay. If chris and JCS are about they should be able to find it via the "Friends Room" button. Does that sounds okay?
I'm ready for a online Race.

Edit : If you Guys don't mind i would like that TC 4 is allowed (min. 2) and ABS 1. All other Aids can set off for me

Nice one Chris...:)
So jealous right now
Darn those AI on the Ferrari one. Don't they respect the car on the driving line whose nose is a wheel length ahead of their car. 2.5 combo wiped out through their stupidity. Grr.

oh dear Pete that's not good for them then....i'm sure PD will sort it out...:cheers:
I think the AI is the single biggest area that PD needs to work on to make improvements.

Oh Mate sorry you can't join us yet....Hopefully you won't be long sorting out your internet issues...👍



Yes Definitely mate...this is what they should Focusing on..👍

:cheers:
 
Ok guys. Room is set up. Search for friends room and you'll find it no probs. @LordJCS - Join when you are able (if you are able)
Seeing as though I can't watch the fun & madness about to take place, I'd like thorough reporting of all the shenanigans. Tracks & cars used and placings.

Have fun guys 👍
 
Exeter GT Online Race Meet - 17/9/14

Race 1 - 550PP SS at Deep Forest Raceway - Shaun in a Nissan GT-R Nismo '14 and Chris driving a Lambo Murcielago LP670-4. Not sure what Badger will be driving but I would hazard a guess he will roll up in a RUF painted some outrageous colour. Result - Nismo '14 in first place followed by the Lambo. Not bad for a 15 minute tune :)
Race 2 - 500PP SS - Monaco - (side note, we have or PD does, with online racing in lobbies. I could see all three people but the other two could only see me. Odd really). Shaun in the Aston Martin DB9 '03, Chris in a Lambo Countach and Badger in a Ferrari 458. I tried to cheat and park my car on the top of the hill like Rosberg to yellow flag that corner stopping a faster driver getting pole but this game doesn't allow that. Maybe the FIA could learn a few things from PD. Result - Chris in First place. Me and Badger had a good touring car style race and I came second (just).
Race 3 - Madrid Mini - 450PP SH - Shaun in a Lotus Elise 11, We have been graced by a lords presence. LordJCS that is... who is driving what looks like a Racing MX5.. , Chris is using a Elise 111R and Badger is going to show us how its done in a Scirocco is that??. Result - We started with 4 and ended with 2. JCS retired from the race after we had a side by side battle into a sharp corner and unfortunately with my car being understeery, he got diverted into the corner... My bad on that one. Sorry for that. Well done chris.
Race 4 - Rerun of Race 3 but with me changing cars that don't cause mass crashes :) - A cleaner race this time around but I still came 3rd in an Audi TT Coupe '07. Good win Chris. You had that from the start.
Race 5 - Classic Car on the Monza 80s Track. Shaun in a Ford GT40 Mark I 66, Chris in a Ford GT40 Mark I '66, JCS in a Cobra and Badger in a Ferrari GTO. The race. well.. I was in last.. I won. Not sure how. Ask the other three as they had some major spins.. :) Thanks guys.
Race 6 - GVE - 500PP SM - Shaun in an RUF BTR '86, Badger in a 458 Italia, JCS in a honda S2000 '06 and chris in a Vette Z06. This should be interesting... Results. Badger in first. Closely followed by Chris and JCS. I came dead last but I went through those pearly gates with a smile on my face. That RUF is a hoot :)
Race 7 - 400PP CS Tyres around Rome - Shaun in the Mini Cooper S '05, JCS in a Honda Integra, Badger in a Mini 07 and Chris in a Abarth 500. JCS win after a good scrap with Badger and myself with myself coming home in second.
Race 8 - 400PP CS tyres around Autumn Ring Mini - Lord JCS in the Integra, Chris in the 500 '09, Shaun in the Suzuki Swift and Badger in the Mini Cooper S '11 Results - Badger win. JCS second with chris and myself lagging behind a bit on this one.
Race 9 - Rerun of race 8 as it was quite fun. I changed into a mini for this race.. JCS won in a CR-Z, I finished second in the mini with Chris completing the line up in 3rd. Good race guys.
Race 10 - GT500 at Spa - Nissan GTR Stealth, Honda NSX Stealth and Honda HSV-010. Result. JCS Win, Shaun 2nd and Chris spun on the last lap chasing shaun down and finished in 3rd. bad luck chris. It was mighty close up till that point.

I see that me and you are very close at the moment on points. I have just got a few more points on my last run. I am up to 764,503 points so edging closer to the silver prize slowly. Getting gold is going to be quite hard. @chrisspeed281 is mighty close though. 175,000 off gold. Not sure how JCS got 1.3million though.. care to let us mere mortals in on your secrets? :)


No secret.. Just drive it like you stole it while keeping a watchful eye on the A$$hats. Pick your spots to overtake them.. Try and see if you can detect a pattern and then use that pattern to your advantage.

Fast, but not like this... :) A clean race at a steady speed is the secret to get bonus "Perfect" (200.000pts) 👍

I did this on the 3 races and managed to get +2.000.000 points each...

Just don´t loose the bonus X... If so, better restart/start again (use the remain of the race to know the track/overtake points).

keeping a watchful eye on the A$$hats.

Very important!!!

I wouldn't have picked the NISMO to beat the LP670 at Monza so that 15 minutes on the tools has paid off 👍

Your comment about Monaco & what will forever be known as 'The Rosberg Incident' made me laugh :lol:
How are those therapy sessions going? I expect Lewis to get more revenge in Singapore by finishing in front of Nico but 2nd behind Daniel :D

Thanks for hosting yet another fun online session. I had a blast,hope you did as well.

I noticed something on the rerun on Autumn ring and the last race at spa.. You flashed your lights at me. Was that just to try and throw me off or did you think i did something against the rules of racing?

I noticed it while playing and decided to take a look on the replays to take a closer look. Sure enough, you were flashing me..

Please let me know if i did something outside of the rules..

Thanks to @shaunm80 @chrisspeed281 @Badger66 for this fun session.

:cheers:

I was doing it to put you off. No other reason. You didnt do anything against the rules.. It didnt actually put you off so never mind on that one :)
 
Next time ill have to flash you more often if you are in front of me. See if i can put you off next time.

Good to know.. I looked at the replays trying to find out if i went high on the curbs or something else of that nature to warrant a flash of the high beams. Couldn't find any, so that's why i asked..


Wouldn't surprise me at all.. Just a heads up.. Would probably work better on a track at dusk, dawn, or even night..
 
There is something different at online Races. All my Cars have understeering...not only by SRF off...they just feel different...at Seasonals (SRF off) they work much better :confused: is the Track option setting a other one ?
