A couple of things I have just noticed are not in the driver briefing.

Spec checks will be 5 min earlier to allow and extra 5 min of qualifying due to lap length.

Spec check will be at 18:15 GMT so please make sure you arrive before then or you will not be allowed to qualify!

During qualifying you will not be able to return to the pit's via the pause menu, this is thanks to PD and update 1.05.
If you do return to the pits via the pause menu your time is removed from the timing screens and I will no longer be able to see your time, this will result in you being put to the back of the grid with no time set!
 
Well its a race against time that I don't think I'm gonna win :indiff:
BTW mate, you can join after qualifying, you will be spec checked and have to start from the back as long as you can get here before 6:55?
 
Congrats Hmilan 👍.....caine, gutted for you..:(....good race all in shot for 4th thought i had it until RS sneaked in and pipped me at the end :grumpy:......weather was a bit dramatic but hey, all good fun...Roll on Brands :D
 
Without all my crashes I would have stayed at the front in the wet... Would, could, might, that all didn't happen because I was really unconcentrated, but hey, we all have such days :boggled:
The rain was my luck, because in dry conditions I couldn't keep up really, I forgot to turn the downforce down again after a previous race :yuck:
Well done all, especially the TOP 3 👍
 
I'm really gutted, had just taken 2nd from Mikey and had finished my stint on mediums, so would have had a pace advantage to Milan... then ps3 shutdown... Yay! Rejoined incase of a restart, then left to start ITCC.. can't connect to host, so both events ruined due to connection issues :(
 
That was THE most fun i have had in gt6 👍

Was a bit worried at the start, which showed, after and during the first lap. Do not like to be mid field with so many cars around.
Came out of turn 3 a good ways back from starting position. Then on first chicane a mb spun out in front of me and i had to to avoid crashing into it..... twice
Then on 2nd chicane i drifted a bit to the left and voila..... there was an r8 stationary so dodging the car just barely while my jeans got even more messy
A busy first lap...... from there things looked better and better. managed to reclaim 4th while having a really good battle for it with Nin before the red flag

Again i started in 4th and again i ended up 3rd last in 3rd corner. A crash on this first lap meant a pitstop while Giggty was tearing up the racetrack getting further and further ahead...
When the rain began i pitted for full wets but forgot to change in the menu :banghead:
Luckily my pitcrew threw on inters so not completely lost, but meant yet another stop.
Coming in for full wets i had caught Giggty up inside the pit entry so from here on out it was a very slow sprint for the cheggered flag...

Looking forward to next race at the brands :mischievous:

A huge thanks to you all that put your time and energy into setting up seasonal races like this one :cheers:

Sorry for being that stationary R8 that made your pants messy:lol:


And @merlinrichards, no matter how many times you say it, that wasn't your fault. You didn't even touch me, I spun on my own:ouch:
 
Both my starts were terrible for whatever reason, the restart was unfortunate as the rear snapped out just as shifty was passing, sorry. Then the thing was undriveable for that lap even though I had double rear damage which I would have normally stayed out. Good run on the Mediums and came in for softs...as the rain came, when I pitted it wasn't wet enough for inters so I put softs on and by the time I exited it was inter conditions...entire lap of moments and got it back and dumped wets on. I caught the Z4s and nearly caught merlin at the end, between the incidents I had decent pace particularly in the wet.
 
Great turn out tonight guy's and well done to all :cheers: :gtpflag:

Big shame about the connection issues :grumpy: seems PD really need to make their servers more stable :mad:

None the less a 2nd from me is all I could hope for with the pace @HMilan21 had tonight, seemed unbeatable, I could keep pace but not for the whole race, a couple of mistakes lost me most of my time, but your pace lost me some too, congratulations mate :D

Congratulations to @Tk_Hansen too for taking the class win and @DanSmith bringing our team car home in 2nd makes for a great team result :D
 
Unbelievable race and epic fight with Mike especially at the first session before the red flag, i didn't count how many times we passed each other 👍 After every start i try to push very hard through the first few corners to lose everyone behind me before the long straights preventing to use my slipstream but Mike always couht me... I made only one bigger mistake after 2nd start at the 2nd long straight's end where my car broke out under braking and i went into the gravel. Thankfully my car's nose pointed to the track so i was able to join on 7th place, but as i saw the replay there were many damaged car ahead so half a lap later i was 3rd close behind Glen and Mike. At the 2nd pitstop i loaded only 30 ltr of fuel, i dont know why... (another stupid mistake, i'm always doing this :irked:)i'm pretty sure the fuel wouldnt be enough so without the rain and one another pitstop i should came in for some fuel and i was only 23sec ahead (and the lead is slowly melting ), i think i couldnt keep the lead but the rain helped alot this time. When it started to fall i damaged my rear left wheel at the 2nd chicane and then i couldnt stop anywhere, i think i visited every graveltrap, i made a 360 at one point and i touched the wall at some other point, i sweat like hell to keep that car on the road, almost got a heart attack while looking the map, expecting the whole field passes me but that didnt happened, probably everyone has the same problem like me... After the last pit i just tried to calm myself down, just had to stay on the road, not making stupid mistakes, I was ultra careful under braking, ususally started to decelerate at 250 or sometimes 300m before the chicanes :D No disconnection during the race this time... luck. There were some hard passes on some places where usually i dont want to pass but i didnt crash anyone, everyone gave a bit of room :bowdown:

During the night i was about to lap someone, as im getting closer and closer i sharted to flash my lights a little bit, when he noticed it he went straight out of the course :guilty: I just used to flash, just to let him know that i'm coming and i will pass on the first chance, watch for me, dont crash me. i didnt use flash while thinking "hey you get out of the way, now!!! :mad:" :lol:


Congratulations for everyone who finished this hard race :cheers:

I hope it will rain like hell at Brands :dopey:
