Flyin' Miata Super Cup! Spec Miata Championship

[Crispy]

Had a bad start. Due to a few accidents, I was slowly put behind, down to last place, where I used the next 5 laps to get to 9th, only to check my Telemetry really quick, to find Bearjew magically gain 700 ft. and create a collision between us. So I decided to let him through by taking a pit stop. From then on I had to try and catch up to Napkin, but as you see, it didn't happen. So close though! I had a tremendous amount of fun! I expect me to be low placing next race, I've heard Infineon isn't a lot of people's greatest tracks, and having Catalunya since the early days, I will be left in the dust!

Got the Replay up on my Storefront. crispychicken49

 

[Wardez]

Results! (disregard the fact that there's only 5 rounds, there's still 7 rounds, I just need add them into the sheet.)

 

[laxmofo24]

Heres 2 pics I got. Super fun race. My and ACR Flitz had a good battle going in the beggining and at the end. I love this series haha.

 

[ACR Puertorro]

Errrr... I see you guys had a lot of fun. I was in the process of moving am didn't get a chance of joining. Maybe for the next one.

 

[Xi CP iX]

I took a bunch of pics from Infineon. But it wont let me upload them to the fourm. It keeps saying its an "invalid file" can anybody help me out? They're in my Storefront so check them out if you want. Xi CP iX

 

[Wardez]

Upload it to an image host like imgur.com or minus.com and you should be set. Once you upload them there just grab the forum code link and post here. Thanks CP,

@Puertorro
Was wondering where you were at, Flitz had an awesome race! Hope to see you on next week 👍

 

[Xi CP iX]

Cant seem to figure out the pic up loader. So i will just post the link to my flickr. I made a Section for the FMSC so its easy to find. Had an awesome race guys! Cant wait to do it again next week! More pics to come.

Here, I'll just embed them here for you, there's a button that wraps this code around your image link, the one that ends in .jpg. Looks like a little polaroid icon. Inserts this code:

Nice shots! Thanks!

 

[Xi CP iX]

thats what i did the first time i tried to upload them. but that didnt seem to work for me either. thanks for posting them!

 

[tummelisa083]

It was a great race! I was in a good battle between 3rd, 4th and 5th. However I lost that battle but it was really fun and clean racing

 

[Waltrip0055]

Did the replay work this time? Not cutting off after 15 minutes? or is that how it is....

 

[R6Boy2005]

Had a blast even though I was last and lapped! lol. Gonna practice more this week, see if that will help. I think I'm a lost cause. lol

 

[R6Boy2005]

Oh I also saved a copy of the replay and will have it on my sf shortly. I haven't watched it yet so I don't know if it's the whole replay or just the first 15min.

 

[dfv2]

sorry I missed the race fellas I was having network issues. looks like you guys had a good clean race, I'm looking forward to next week's qualifier!!

 

[Wazzu Racer]

Had a great time racing on Friday, even though I was also lapped. I have a livery I would like to add to the car if there are any painters out there who would like an additional project.

 

[TomShanK]

Hey, this is BearJew

Crispy - Sorry for the incident between us, you were faster initially as I had no practice laps but after I found a way to nail the first few corners I caught you in no time. If you review the replay I was in a position where you should have given me racing room, but regardless it was a racing incident and I thank you for yielding to pit road.

It was great racing with you guys on a whim for the first time. I will probably show up to future races with the new Purple Miata. I will tune my car for this week so I'm not running the forever unpredictable stock tune. Thanks again!

 

[Crispy]

^Yeah that was my fault, I went to check the telemetry to see how much wear I had on the tires, and didn't realize that you caught up to me, so when I took the turn I took you out. That was my fault entirely!

Can't wait until next race. Catalunya's always an intensely fun track to race, regardless of the cars.

 

[Thebeast2011]

Good organization well done

 

[J76MC]

Wardez, I just signed up. I tried to edit my initial entry however I double registered. The second entry is the correct entry. I'm sure you will edit the entry list. I completed my livery earlier today and I'm ready to race.

 

[laxmofo24]

I watched the replay and mine cut off after something like 20 minutes. It wasnt 15, I know that because I was waiting for it to end and it didnt so I thought I was in the clear. Then I went to watch the battle with Flitz at the end and it wouldnt load I really wanted to see a replay of it. Does anyone have the full replay? Id love to watch it/ get pics

 

[laxmofo24]

All these good looking liverys kinda make me want to change mine...

 

[Rhoad Racing]

Registered. Hope to see you guys in a few days.

** livery will be adjusted to meet the number plate requirements.

 

[tummelisa083]

A replay is on my SF. I am not sure how long it is I only watched it to lap 12 or so, then I had to go to work........
There are some pictures there too.

Welcome to the series J76MC. Welcome to the series Rhoad Racing.

Rule changes this week; qualifying's still going on all week, so get in a time when it's most convenient for you.

Now that every one's used to the qualifying system, and we have DJfish's onboard as a capable host, we're gonna institute a Thursday night deadline. Every one has until midnight on Thursday night Pacific Daylight Time (till DST is over in a few days, then it'll be Pacific Standard Time) to get a time in.

Qualifying time has been reduced from 15 minutes, to 10 minutes. A maximum of only ten drivers can qualify at a time.

And that's about it. If any of you have any questions, let me know. Thanks, I'm off to work now.

Cheers!

Hi Wardez,
What times are you and DJFish usually online for qualifying? Being in Australia i'm usually online at vastly different times during weekdays, but I can be flexible.
Bummer about my connection issues last race, in the process of upgrading internet connection here which will hopefully be done by this weekend but almost definately by the following round at Atlanta.

Zed

 

[Wardez]

I work nights so I can qualify you anytime during the week from about 7AM to 1PM Sydney time then I work, then I can be on from about 8PM to late night/ early morning Sydney time.

The deadline will be 7PM Friday evening Sydney time. I'll be putting up a refresh countdown timer to make it a bit more apparent as well.

Let me know if you're covered,
Cheers

 

[RadiatedSlime]

Hey guys, signed up recently. Looking forward to the next race and trying to qualify for it. (probably won't but love the idea of the qualifying)

Anyways just finished my livery. Here it is. I hope it meets the requirements.

 

[Wardez]

Amazing livery man, well done. I'm definitely going to re-do mine now as well xD.

But, one question; what do you mean " probably won't" qualify?

 

[RadiatedSlime]

Sorry about that, I should have been more clear. I meant for the first room with all the top guns.
And thanks, I spent quite a bit of time on the livery

 

[Wardez]

Ah, well that brings up another matter.

Since we're doing knock out qualifying and setting the deadline at midnight pacific time Thursday that means that once the deadline's past, anyone that wants to race can simply be put on a waiting list that I'll post on the spreadsheet here:
http://bit.ly/fmsclivequalifying
(btw if you have trouble finding this week's qualifying sheet just look at the bottom of the spreadsheet, there's individual tabs to click on that are labeled with each track that will take you to that track's qualifying page)

That means that say only 14 people qualify under the deadline, then the first two people to be asked to put on the waiting list (you can be put on the list now btw if anyone knows that they can't make qualifying this week) then it'll be first come first serve. Say 8 people are put on the waiting list. The first 2 will make the first room and the other 6 will start their own race with all the same rules in a second room.

Btw RhoadRacing's friend list is full so I couldn't add him.

I'm gonna send out a batch of XBL messages asking whether certain people that haven't been around lately are still going to stay with the series. There's quite a few people on the registration list that haven't said a word, shown up or responded to any of my private messaging so if they don't respond this time, they'll be taken off the list.

I'm gonna post the confirmed list of drivers today, it's basically those drivers that have actually been in communication with me, registered on FP and otherwise let me know their situation. If you're not on the list it's a good indicator you will be dropped from the championship unless you state otherwise.

Cheers every one, good luck with practice, I'll put up a video of some of my driving around Catulyuna Nat. tomorrow.
