[RacingGrandpa]

I'll be there,smashed in the walls...

 

[Pigems]

Where are you finding these cold tyres? Every race my fronts are overheating by lap 2!

In a lobby, if you enter the race, but don’t enter the track, or leave the track but don’t hit he red X, your car sits in the pits with the tires getting cold while your in the lobby screen I’m pretty sure. Maybe that’s what happened to @El_Beardo ??

 

[Qyn]

I’ll be there.


Have you done this yet?

WOW! That's impressive. I've done that all week, just not to THAT extreme.

48hr ish roll call. Who's coming to see see how many times I can crash, at Bathurst?

@roamingbard13 @PaoloMX reserve slots may be open.

I'm good to go.

 

[Kermit_2142]

Yh I’m racing 👍

 

[GT5Apex]

I'll be there.

 

[GTP_Guido]

Sorry guys, I can‘t make it.
The wife has other plans for Sunday night...

 

[CodeRedR51]

I might have to work unfortunately.

Might give up my spot anyway if a reserve wants a full time spot.

Let me know if you want to drop out, and I'll go recruiting.

I’m on standby if there’s space. Can definately make it.

There's a space open, if you want it. Guido can't make it.

 

[PaoloMX]

There's a space open, if you want it. Guido can't make it.

Then I’m in! Should be fun. If I can make it the full 40 minutes without losing it into the wall I’ll take that as a success.

If you can do that, you should beat me

 

[RacingGrandpa]

Sorry, I have to drop out. Going to visit the parents in Denmark, have been corona tested to make sure I can go.
But leaving Monday morning so this won't fly

 

[Kermit_2142]

Just done some practice, after 5 laps I managed to settle in ok. No idea how we’re going to manage this in traffic though, it’s mental in the dark. I had to up my EV setting slightly because my lights weren’t lighting up far enough ahead I couldn’t even see the 150 boards in time. However if you max out the EV it’s like running in daytime, I suggest @El_Beardo posts a still of his onboard lap and the darkest point (which I think is going up the hill) and then we all set out TV’s to match. Currently I’m on +1.0 EV which seems about right (late sunset). my usual 0 EV is pitch black its ridiculous.

No worries, man.

Yeah, it's going to be chaos

If it helps, I run -0.5 EV, 98 saturation, and 8 HDR at all times.

Bonus point to anyone who gets a clean race bonus tonight. Screenshots will be required.

One for a clean race, two if you take it away from somebody else?

btw worth a warning to everybody to be careful on the pit entry, if you miss it the game gives you a lap penalty on most tracks (don't try pitting the following lap either because it will reset you again).

Three to whoever takes you out

Good point about the pit entry. This one's a ballache.

Have you seen how much my car weighs? You don't want to pick a fight with me

Good point about the pit entry. This one's a “ballache”.

How is that word pronounced? Is it Ball-a-Shay or Ball-Lock? I’ve always wondered that.

I've always gone with ball-eik. (Like cake without the C).

 

[RacingGrandpa]

I've always gone with ball-eik. (Like cake without the C).

And here I have been saying it as B-alash

 

[DarkSideNet]

"They call him 'Bellosh'." hahaha "'Belloq' Belloq"

 

[RacingGrandpa]

 

[Kermit_2142]

Do not say it like this hahaha

it’s this : Ball (testicle) - Ache (throbbing pain-pronounced Ake)
I think your confusing with bollock which is slang for testicle and is pronounced Bol-lock

so the pit entry is a pain in the balls basically

 

[DelboyD]

Just tried a grid start in custom race mode. It’s gonna be frantic off the line tonight!
If I don’t see you in the gravel at turn 1, I’ll see you in the wall at turn 2. Happy days!!

Thanks! Bollocks I have known how to pronounce since I bought my first Sex Pistols vinyl in 1978, but knowing the origin of Ballache makes it a lot easier.

 

[Adam Barber]

Just thrown a practice lobby up if anyone's interested.
