Listen, I've raced all of you before closely and often, I recognise all the tags in this conversation and thread and have never had a problem with any of you. The races tonight have been unbelievably laggy, I mean to the point where on a few occasions some of us have just had to pull over and stop. People have clean wiped me out and had no idea they had done it.

Some benefit of the doubt is required here, this event encourages very close racing especially at the start. Don't let any incidents overshadow what is turning into an instant classic of an event 👍

By the way JvM you're a dirty punting noob :D

All the best

Finally!!! FAK_EV1L has made a mistake

You are on fire tonight and, yes, he quit.

He hates that car haha, when you went past us at xx:50 and we were stationary...well let's just leave it at that, he hates the car :D

I am hating this event. I have not finished a single race all night, as I get punted ebery time on the first lap. It is annoying.

One more try. Fingers crossed.
 
Why you should never give up:

There was Calcifer and I fighting it out for last place, when suddenly Tizzlaaa, Grim_Reaper and Mr_Geez all retire from the race, promoting us into 7th and 8th places. That earns us 1 and 2 points in the WDC, not bad seeing that some F1 drivers have whole careers without ever earning a point. 👍
 
TiZzla, what happened there mate? you had it in the bag, pulled up(?) and all chaos ensued:lol:

I'm in at 2:20 gmt, for my last race.

I've recorded all races tonight so I'll do a tally of placings and post something tomorrow.

Cheers to all, good fun and quality racing:tup:

Exactly! And if my hands werent completely sweaty (i had a winter pullover on) i would have catched up with Synwraith and the gang too ... i think. 👍

well it gets boring racing on your own, so i tried to be a pace car and that didnt work !!!

Some iffy racing in that last one, like when you outbraked yourself at the last chicane and found the grass you should wait until track is clear, not pull out in front on synwraith!!

haha good racing though

I pulled over for everyone else, I intentionally pulled out in front of Maz, a small token for some of his earlier manoeuvres on me:lol:

@ Maz, okay buddy???

Did I actually hit you at some point Dan? I don't remember having done so :(

Eitherway, I waited for you after the collision at Casio.

For you mate I'll accept it as 'lag' 👍

Ah crap, I'm really sorry mate, I had absolutely no idea I'd made any trouble for you during any of the races. You were incredibly laggy, as was uk86ze. Anything could have happened when I was nearby you guys and I wasn't fully aware.

All the best

That was weird. I was 2nd last, braking for turn 1 and watching everyone in front of me and suddenly there was an 'explosion'. I went from from braking for turn 1 into the wall in 1/2s. Probably the worst case of lag I've ever seen.

On a side note, perhaps if we get disconnected by the lonely host in his Clio, and its still in the first 3 minutes of the start, we should all hit 'Start' again instead of having to wait for the next 1/2 hour race. If its within 3 minutes we should still be able to finish before the start of the next race.
 
Big lag and a disconnect, oh well.

Thanks again all, especially Amimera for the idea:tup:
 
Sweet shananigans!! FAK just ran a 21:00 (previously 21:06) race time with the F430. I was doing that with the Clio in a good race. Some guys must have been born with a steering wheel in their hands. Well done FAK!!

And the next race FAK demolished me with a 20:59.001. i limped home with 21:13.985.
 
Thanks to GTP_Animera, TIZZLAAA and TORC_PH for the awesome races tonight. A shame that last race was filled with punters. I hope to race you guys again. 👍

what lap times are people getting here? My best is a 2'06. 086.
