[FGTA] Stock Car Championship (SCC) - DisbandedFinished

[Betty blue]

well to those who turned up, thank you, it was a fun race. the tyres work better than i thought. race 2 crank and glacc ran off while smiley and i battled, it would have been the opposite race 3.

i'd just like to mention track limits. 2 WHEELS BETWEEN WHITE LINE AT ALL TIMES! @Glacc3751 you were quite aggresive on track limits, but @Betty blue , that was completely appalling, consider this your warning.
i want a good standard here. i have stewards who i know love their racing and any corner cutting is not acceptable. if people are found to be consistently cutting, penalties will be awarded

anyway, good racing. any objections to season start next week?

i'm using a legal lane mate. If i was cutting just like what you 're saying, i 'll simply get a penalty.

 

[MatheusBond]

Explain what exactly were you doing? Were you going wide at The Link?

 

[Betty blue]

Explain what exactly were you doing? Were you going wide at The Link?

Because its within the legal space. Why do you think i did not get a penalty in the race?

 

[Mini Stiggy]

Because its within the legal space. Why do you think i did not get a penalty in the race?

What exactly were you doing though?

 

[MatheusBond]

That's what I thought you did, it's actually unavoidable in order to go fast through there.

 

[Betty blue]

What exactly were you doing though?

I was taking corner #6 before the pit's entrance widely, but they think i'm cutting.

 

[Mini Stiggy]

I was taking corner #6 before the pit's entrance widely, but they think i'm cutting.

That is illegal. You are gaining time by being able to carry more speed through the corner.

 

[MatheusBond]

Ah, you're talking about Stowe? Yeah, you can't do that.

 

[Betty blue]

Then why i haven't got a penalty?
its slightly off the track and its slows me down BTW.

The game doesn't penalize you for it, but the stewards will.

 

[Mini Stiggy]

Because it was just a race for fun, and not a regular season race. And it's not the games penalty system your going by, it the stewards penalty system, which is 2 wheels inside the white lines. And yes, going wide at that corner can gain you time.

 

[Betty blue]

I didn't complete the race anyway but i'm sorry.

 

[CRANK_U1]

The corner in question reminds me of the exit of turn 4 on nurb gp but if you put a wheel over the white line there, you do get penalised for it so i was very surprised to see Fishylocked taking it so wide. Anyway, that's what the test was for, so we know our boundaries next time

 

[CRANK_U1]

Because its within the legal space. Why do you think i did not get a penalty in the race?

To be fair Fishy, i think the penalty system is 🤬 on SI

 

[Mikey24]

i'm sorry i wasn't there, i had no ps3 -.-

 

[True-blue-8]

i tried the penalty system. i purposelly cut a corner to test in free run and it didn't do anything, so we cant trust PD (again)
@Betty blue at stowe you ran over the white line and astro, same at chapel. i dont care if the game let you off, i wont. rules clearly state 2 wheels between white lines
as we said it was only a test. the RM tyres worked better than i thought

 

[MatheusBond]

Penalty doesn't work in free run (does it?). I understand not going wide at Stowe, but doing that on The Link will slow everyone down.

 

[True-blue-8]

no, link will make it faster

 

[MatheusBond]

no, link will make it faster

I meant not going wide at the Link is what will slow us down.

 

[True-blue-8]

yeah i know it will
however no advantage will be gained. the object of racing is to go as fast as the track allows you. not going wide at the link would slow everybody down. you can't decide to go wide just because its faster, stay in the white lines
i understand that everyone makes mistakes, especially in the heat of a race. not going to pretend i've never done it once or twice, we're only human (except for john) but doing it intentionally lap after lap after lap is not acceptable.
rant over, im apologise to those who made the racing fun last night.

 

[V8-Johnboy]

@Betty blue just copy your ironic avatar as regards track boundaries = cant go wrong.

 

[CRANK_U1]

Hi @DirtyNurbKing58
I was wondering what date the first race will take place on? I can't open the calender due to my PS3 browser, sorry.

[True-blue-8]

oh as matheus is going, glacc will drive for diesel pig's sister team DPR Woofwagon Racing

 

[Glacc3751]

I'm ready! No school thursday and friday

 

[CRANK_U1]

I'll be ready I'll try to get some of my PSN friends to join too because we really need more players for this.
I was in a championship in GT5 hosted by Burnout_Addict, The top 3 finishers received PSN vouchers. Maybe you could do that also to entice more players

 

[True-blue-8]

yeah we do, but it's first season and numbers are usually low.
if their interested direct them here.
if i had the money i would haha

 

[True-blue-8]

i guess we'll start wednesday then. i think numbers are ok to start and we'll get more as we're rolling.

Round 1 - Willow Springs (Big Willow)
Will announce laps tomorrow. if everyone can have the corret team colours and numbers. Forecast showing thunder with 50% chance of rain, so best bring some wets
