Haha cool, i believe that if you have a few races without any incidents the strike goes away.. (i may be mistaken)
 
Skate- If you have a race without incident it goes away mate. You practicing?

SM- I am pleased to hear that because I cant get the top speed ones right, see you in a min.

Yea in like 25 minutes im finally installing my game to my hard drive
 
Anybody watch the race edits at f1.com? there really good
i just watched the latest 1 and it was particularly good music and camera shots were epic check it out!

and bert im getting worried about people showing up for fgt600
 
cccobx- If it doesnt work out there are 3 spots and 3/4reserve spaces in FGTC so you will all be able to re-join if you can make the timings, I would like you to as you are a good solid driver.

Even if it doesn't take off, it was worth a shot 👍
 
I liked the prospect of it. Maybe using a separate thread would be better as the main championship kind of dwarfs the fgt 600 in comparison.for example you go onto the OP, first thing you see is the main one, you have to scroll down a fair bit to get the fgt600 section so a new thread would be better in my opinion 👍
 
A new thread is needed for it, if it does get popular, then discussions of their season will be on here, and will conflict with the fgtc news :D.
 
Yeah I definitely agree with that, it's not really at the forefront of the thread (and rightly so). The format could be altered? Maybe change the cars to Ferrari F1's and make it a secondary series, like IRL e.g: Formula Renault. Except it's Formula Ferrari :P just a possible idea, as I love driving my F10.

EDIT: Feel free to completely disregard anything suggested here, haha. 👍
 
Feel free to create a new thread Tom, its not looking promising and a different place might work. I have seen FGT events come and go since I started this one, usually with very little interest. I would like to get Ronin back as a reserve (work commitments) and you and cccobx in the main championship.
 
I probably won't begin a new thread as we're finishing up with IndyCar testing, thread will be up soon for a november start 👍 I don't think I can juggle organizing 2 series and doing my GCSE's ;)

EDIT: I'll take a reserve spot in the FGTC if you need someone?
 
Hi Guys,
Another average race for me, though I messed up qualifying but I didn't mind being at the back of the grid(the safest place).... as I was expecting a big pile-up on the first corner.That didn't happen everybody seemed to get through it ok and off we went. Everything settled down quite quickly. I was on a long first stint so as other drivers pitted earlier than me I moved up the order which then meant some of the quick guys had to pass me on track. Most of those that did pass me did so cleanly waiting for the right oppotunity to make a CLEAN pass. However there were a couple who had the patience of a GNAT. One of whom side swiped me severely just after the pit entrance, :ouch:down the main straight causing damage to my right rear suspension and the on the next lap did a pit manouvre on me into the first right hand corner putting me into a 90degree spin and blocking half the exit to the corner . This held us both up for some time and was totally unnessary as he had more to lose than I did. Other than than not a bad race and I was very suprised how well the medium tyres worked and will possibly be using them a bit more in the next race. The Tokyo track I think is a good circuit..👍. but I think you will have to take risks to get a good lap time. As there is no runoff therefore you can get away with being very untidy and still get a good lap time( but that is not my style) looking forward to the next race another new track for me ....see you there Sunday...PS well done to my team mate Flood :cheers::bowdown:. Just remember your tyres.
 
SM- Sorry dude I must have just gone to bed :)

TMD- Its up to you mate, you can go on as a reserve if you like.

Electric- Couldnt agree more about the barriers giving people who would normally end up in the sand a little boost (they saved me a few times). Sarth will be different of course with sand traps and concrete barriers to contend with. Sorry you had trouble and I got 2 drivers for hitting you for no discernable reason, hopefully they will learn for next time. Make sure you PM me soon after the race with any problems so I can watch out for the incidents.
 
Well i think we should drop the fgt600 its a bit of a niche racing series

but on a side note, im seeing that i might be able to become regular in series room permitting and will have a definite answer by this weekend

I dropped it about an hour ago mate, I am just going to message tom and ronin, hope you can be a regular. Let me know and remind me what colour your eligible cars are if you can.
 
The cable came earlier than expected, so I am back online :) I've got work tonight but I will be on after that for practice if any one is around :)
 
Shame about the 600 series, but I see why. I was hoping it would get bigger. I guess I'm gonna have to race with you hotshots instead:). I shall try to make the sarthe race, but I will probably be regular near the second half of the season.
 
Ok Ronin, ill add you to the regulars and just hope you can make a good portion of the races, FGT colours?

cccobx+Ronin- Blue/white car for williams team or Orange for McLaren, if you dont have them I hope you know the permenant borrow thingy :)

Flood is looking quick on this track, kept pace with me for 4/5 laps.

On the road again,
