GT5 just crashed and i lost my ****ING save data!!! lost all my paints, gear and 540cars!!!!

all my beloved race cars gone.... like my MR-S, Integra, Mini........... the list goes on :(

you don't have a backup? :crazy:
 
5 way battle for 2nd = crazy

Moieman passed 3 cars into Les Combes to take 2nd
 
Sorry to hear that, Paul. That is a real shame. I haven't backed up my save in a long time. Maybe I should do that right now.

Yikes, D1 sounds like a gong show. Lets all do our best to keep it clean D3. Also, clear your cache and make make sure no PC's in your house are downloading or uploading significant amounts of data.

I'm going to get a few more practice laps in. I really don't want to run anyone off the road.

He's the FMSC Canadian pride :lol:.

Unless my game glitched I saw him cut the chicane unintentionally, but it was enough to pull ahead of the rest of the pack and out of the draft. Either way, it was a great battle for 2nd between everyone. Good job guys
 
It appears that I'm developing a small fan club :lol:

Anyways there was good racing up front. It felt a lot like La Sarthe with the freight train of cars lap after lap. It does make for close finishes but it's pretty much a crap-shoot honestly. I'm looking forward to Madrid, I don't think drafting will be much of a factor there :P

Edit: I'll drop by and watch some of the Div 3 race as long as the room doesn't fill up. Go Mule and Nastra! :D
 
Oh boy, what a brilliant race yet again. At least I found one guy in that top 6 to be the dirty driver I expected him to be. R1600 is going to love that replay...

I saw you hit the gravel trap. Will watch replay tonight or tomorrow after work.
 
Owens, I was the one in the yellow car and I apologize for my tactic. Going into that turn it looked like 666Z06 was going to push you off and I tried to sneak in on the apex. I messed up and was ready to wait for you to catch up to give you your spot, but you quit.

I'm sure it will be evident in the replay, but 666Z06 cut through the bus stop several times, took eau rouge incorrectly, and was pushy on most occasions we were around each other.

Back to the incident involving me, I take the blame it was my fault and I should have not gone in like that.

That was Longbow, even though I will be writing a report for that, that isn't my main issue, and I don't have a problem with Longbow for that.
 
I can't get into the room.

It keeps bleeping basic words and disconnecting me.

Edit:
Can't join room. Network incompatibility with host. I already reset my entire network. I'll try again.
 
Me: Give me the command and I'll make a new room
RT: Tnj, make a new room

That sucks, if you want to pm me a list, I have a few extra cars laying around, would be more than happy to send you them. Also if you have any paint chips you liked or specific gear, I can see what I have and send those off also. 👍

You've been known to D/C from races. I've never seen TnJ D/C and he knows alot about this stuff, so I trusted his connection more.
 
Spa is a bit of a slipstream fest as Wii's already said.

First stint, 1st to 6th were all together, Adam only breaking away about 6 laps in after the rest of us were spending too much time jostling for position. Doing that, we were doing 2:40s when I knew we'd be doing 2:38s in free air, so I pitted early (Lap 8) to get a few free laps on the rest of the group, and it worked out pretty well.

Second stint I ended up being maybe 4 or 5 seconds up the road from the same pack, and I hoped they'd continue battling to let me stay with that gap, or extend it further. To begin with, the gap was probably increasing, but with about 5-6 laps to go, they'd caught up after working well together with the tow.

From there, some pretty good battling, sensible stuff and intelligent driving on the whole. I knew it'd come down to the last lap though and who could get the best run out of Eau Rouge, or towards the Bus Stop if not. Deliberately took a wider entry into Turn 1 to get a bit of a gap on the others, so they'd have to jostle for position through Eau Rogue whilst I was continually building speed. Managed to use so much slipstream that I was virtually on the limiter at approaching 160mph down the straight (I think we're normally doing 130ish without tow?!), sailing past the entire group no problem at all. Under braking I got a pretty big tap from Wiifreak (no probs at all) which meant I had no hope of making the corner though. Lifted and coasted through the chicane to try and negate any time I might have gained. Was also the safest option with 4 cars right on my rear bumper. Also lifted and rolled across the finish line out of the Bus Stop for the last 2 seconds of the lap to doubly make sure. There was a bit of a mess behind me on the last lap anyway so I think it didn't matter anyway.

Madrid is a circuit I don't really like at all, and I'm probably not available next weekend anyway, so it might come in handy as a dropped round, we'll see! :)

Oh and congrats Adam, well driven in traffic and out of it 👍
