It was rather amusing yes

 

[berty1979]

You need to win this one Pagey, I am actually rooting for you in this race, gotta make a good finish in the championship!

 

[Pagey279]

Im gonna do my best, i need to finish 2 places ahead of you in the rest of the races to try and get my hands on the championship Its a tall order though

Plus i havent had a win or fastest lap since Rome!!

 

[smithaz]

U must b losing it pagey! Iv had no practice whatsoever on GVS yet, find it hard to be arsed after iv been at work all day, next 2 days off though so i ought to get a bit in. I like GVS as a track, its nice and technical, loads of tricky corners, its one of the proper tracks in gt5!
Also to moan about my new wheel... I cocked up ordering it at work the other day cos of the ****** computer wich doesnt load pages up properly and they didnt accept my card details. Got it sorted today after having to ring them to confirm some ****. Just annoying that it will take longer to arrive. I will let u all kno what its like compared to DFGT when it gets here, im abit concerned that with the pedals being harder to press they might slip on the carpet, it will also be worse not having all the buttons on the wheel itself, but on the other hand easier to reverse and steer at same time when u crash.

Pagey-You are normally the fastest out there so I know its not over yet. I was lucky in a way at Indy as I was shoved into 2nd (not my fault) and I managed to hang on to smithaz for the first 11 laps. You are guarateed a win at Nurburg and I am guaranteed to be 3rd-6th so there is a chance!

Smithaz- Do you map your reverse to the shifter on the DFGT or do you drive manual? GVS should be a great race so get practising, Mustard is rapid!

 

[Ellis]

Stewards done yet. Sick of waiting

 

[berty1979]

Nope, waiting on Sakery. 10 drivers out of 14 under investigation

 

[Ellis]

Am i one?

those laps were annoying, i was absolutely belting it trying to break ur tow, but then u wud get me back on the straight haha

no iv left the gears mapped to the shifter, i have thought about putting reverse there but i usually bang it down a few gears with the shifter when i crash so i was scared of forgetting that iv changed it during a race and losing a load of time"!
Also re. reverse gear, u should be able to just shift down from 1st into neutral and then reverse, i think a need for speed game had that in so what are PD thinking missing that out

 

[Pagey279]

I may normally be the fastest but i can never string it all together, i normally mess up quali, make silly mistakes in the race and never have a good strategy. I will just have to up my game

 

[smithaz]

even iv started writing notes and im lazy as hell!

 

[berty1979]

Smithaz- I knew you were quicker but the draft was enough and I was all over you in the tight S. It was fun and I needed to stick with you until the first stop, I nearly did it too.
I at you taking notes, I knew you would get serious after you realised you could beat us

Pagey- Its up to you man, you are the only man that can beat me in S2!

 

[Pagey279]

From now on, i am a man on a mission

 

[berty1979]

Nice one, I look forward to meeting you sir, on the field.....of battle!

Practice for FGT in my lounge at 2000 switching to classics at 2030 👍

 

[Pagey279]

Sick bruv

 

[berty1979]

Innit

 

[ENTERSANDMAN13]

I wiw shank yu blud!

 

[Ellis]

Dont talk like ferg

 

[berty1979]

SM- Lamb shank?

Good practice, I am a bit more confident now, onus is on Pagey to win this race because I may be in the top 4

 

[berty1979]

Ok, stewards report is in the OP

A few things to mention.
For incidents this is the worst race we have ever had. Dont be so desparate for the win that you run people off the road, lapped cars have the right not to be bashed out of the way and you may have to wait a couple of seconds until they can let you by.
Lets make it better at GVS please, penalties are doubled on lap 1 so brake early for the first corner!!!!!
If anyone has a problem with their penalties=
1. Consider your offence has been viewed by at least 2 stewards.
2. If you are going to complain you had better have a good reason to do so,
3. Check the incident yourself
4. Challenge decisions by private message.

Smart Heart- I dont want to ban you but you need to have 0 incidents on the next race, overtake only on the straights and yield immediatley. Good luck

 

[FloodMeister]

I'm a lucky one or I din't do anything wrong I just thought I did!

 

[Pagey279]

59 points behind Im pretty much screwed now, if only i hadnt missed those two races at the start of the season....oh well

 

[berty1979]

Damn it pagey, you have a mountain to climb. Just try and win every race man, I could mess up and get fined or disconnect or anything mang.

Flood, you seemed ok. No idea.

 

[Pagey279]

Is there no appeal procedure? i dont want to cause a fuss but still

 

[berty1979]

I spelled it out in the last post but 2 but dont appeal unless you have followed 1-3 and still disagree mate.
Ill be honest there is no point in this case, we can talk about it now if you like but dont let it turn into an argument.

 

[Ellis]

Can I ask what my incident was? I do not remember causing any incidents?

 

[berty1979]

I cant give lap details because I didnt note it and have deleted the steward message.
You caused engine damage on someone (late braking) and something happened on lap 36, its just a general warning really.

 

[Ellis]

Right, i dont remember causing anything really

 

[FloodMeister]

Sooo Mr. I'm so clean at racing. You wasn't really clean was you.

 

[berty1979]

Ellis- Who knows, I am not watching the damn thing again
