What just happen? That's a shame. I enjoyed racing against him and talking to him. Wonder what made him leave like that?

I may be able to drive for you until you can find a replacement driver. No guarantees though.

Bad news about Matheus :/ Liked racing against him.

Even more bad news if redbull takes his place Just kidding, but he's gonna be some really tough competition.

 

[gtpcaine]

Spread the word guys - need some replacement drivers in to top up the numbers.

@Tensa Proto, @Damian44, @Ninners -- Fancy full time drives? Go on, you know you want to!

The AZ ends at the light tower on the left hand side after the start / finish line.
This is after the timing line, so please be aware of that.

I've never felt so threatening... I'm usually the one who's intimidated.

You did win the only race you've been in so far. And that was with penalty from the first race.

 

[Spirit]

And that only happened due to a penalty from the (actual) winning diver. Besides, one race doesn't really say much other than that everything went right once. We will see how I do at Le Mans.

Well you'll easily beat me and rono with your 0 penalty

 

[Ninners]

There's a chance I may possibly be available as a reserve next weekend.

I might need you. Not sure right now.

Should be available unless T12 / Clios go ahead.

I've managed a 51.000 with my pp pen woo hoo rapid now you see me, now you see me in your rear view 👍

 

[rono_thomas]

Just to clear something up pole sitter takes inside line for first corner, drivers brief indicates that this is the left hand side but first corner is right hander so this would be outside line or am I being stupid

The first real critical corner is a left into the Dunlop Chicane. The right hander bend before isn't really that important when just getting up to speed. That's my theory anyway...

 

[rono_thomas]

yea that's how I was considering it also and I very much doubt I'll be pole sitter anyhow

 

[RS__96__oO]

Just a question about the lobby settings, should the time change be at 12 or at 24 to get a full 24 hour circle? I believe we had only a 12 hour circle last season, where we started somewhere in the evening and ended the race in the mornings.

This is correct. 👍

Time change of 12 will give us 12 track hours in 1 hour real time, so a 2 hour race, 2x12 = 24 track hours. I can't remember what we used last season now, have slept since then!

@gtpcaine does the Ice Cold Racing AM Corvette have a PP penalty? Or do I run at the full spec?

Full PP mate. 👍

 

[Phouchg]

Like I said Redbull, you'll have this one.

 

[Spirit]

Like I said Redbull, you'll have this one.

I'm sure I'm not the only driver at full power. Besides, I still have to do two hours of flawless driving to do before I can win. I may not make a lot of mistakes but they do happen... I spun twice at Suzuka you know, I could have won straight up.

 

[rcb929]

Like I said Redbull, you'll have this one.

Have we all forgotten the best AM driver? His name @Revoy 👍

 

[Phouchg]

Oh yeah, best driver in AM.. nothing to do with being your team mate has it? ^^

And Redbull, I'm absolutely not trying to pile the pressure on you to make those mistakes.. not at all.
