FGTC | OVER | Congrats to Spurgina!

[Spurgy 777]

He's just a publicity stunt like Lewis, Nic can't drive at all, not surprising considering he has cerebral palsy. Only seen two races with him in and he just pulled over at the start. Just makes me laugh that he gets to take the place of people who want to race for a career.

 

[berty1979]

Yeah I saw the advert for that one. Might check it out but like Spurgey says I am sceptical of it.
Pagey- I like your UK police thread, good stuff 👍

 

[Pagey279]

It might be quite interesting though

Its just turned into me and Famine arguing

 

[berty1979]

There are a lot of experts here that think their academic knowledge can override someones actual experiences. But they cant.

 

[Ellis]

I might have a look and express my opinion.

 

[berty1979]

Not like you to express your opinion ellis
I am now looking a bit better for the Madrid race. I have (roughly) equalled the best lap from the other night and can run very consistently thanks to some tuning

Just saw an advert for this, it shows Nic Hamilton going from racing online (using his Fanatec GT3, if i recognised it correctly) to racing in the Clio Cup.

I thought people would be interested 👍

Racing is a family sport though. An older brother who's had big time success is a guaranteed ticket in as long as they can make it around the track a couple laps without a crash. Throw in above average ability and the younger brother might win the Daytona 500.

 

[ETID]

Just got back from a wedding, only had 3 pints of white lightning equivalent and feel wrecked.

 

[berty1979]

So you look a bit like Danny dyer in your avatar then?

*FGTC OFFICIAL ANNOUNCEMENT*
Officials fell over in shock when a mysterious driver was spotted driving around madrid after the end of practice in a Red Bull car. This ties in with last weeks reports that Force India was trying to enter a car in season 3. No one knows who this driver was but a strong smell of MAPLE SYRUP and herbal tobacco was said to be lingering in the garages at Madrid.....watch this space!

 

[FloodMeister]

I have now officially got GT5 boys, definatly got the place, (moving in on 12th) and im going to back racing with you guys woot

 

[ETID]

Nethereal???

 

[Rich S]

[berty1979]

Flood- Awesome man Does that mean you miss the first race bro?

Etid- He says 90% so ill wait for further comms with him 👍

Rich- Yes....pancakes

 

[ETID]

My knowledge of maple syrup origin in t

 

[Pagey279]

Shame i can't race

 

[berty1979]

Yeah gutted mate but no points involved so its all good. My pedals are knackered so maybe I will be on the controller

Etid- Good guess

 

[FloodMeister]

yes the first race

 

[berty1979]

One race isnt a huge problem mate. It will be good to have you back 👍

 

[FloodMeister]

I might have a practice tommorow day if anybodys up for it?

 

[berty1979]

If I manage to get on ill join you but you might have more luck with the others as I never normally come on until the actual race.
Good news (for me) I got the Lotus coloured FGT
I think I now have them all! woo hoo.

 

[ETID]

Going for consistant 1.00s tomorrow.

 

[berty1979]

Go and sober up for the race tomorrow I managed a 59.7xx lap earlier

 

[Rich S]

Go and sober up for the race tomorrow

No liquor yourselves up big time, then I might have a chance.

 

[berty1979]

I was wrong, for some reason I still need the white FGT, reckon I have Madrid sussed now though

 

[IndyWolf]

6:15 pm GMT i presume tomorrow, will there be qualifying or no?

P.S. no luck on the all blue FGT

 

[berty1979]

I have Green/Yellow, Blue/White, and Black/Yellow FGTs

My timezone is Eastern Standard Time (New York Timezone), but i understand daylight savings for us we'll kick in soon

 

[berty1979]

Ok cool, maybe we can make a Renault team for the yellow car, we will see how things pan out with the spaces etc.
At the moment its looking like there may be 2 spots available. One in a team and one freelance so I am just collecting car info to give me team options 👍

 

[IndyWolf]

It may end up on the freelance but we'll see how things go

 

[berty1979]

Cool, how is your practice going for Madrid?
