Formula B-Spec - Season 1 Finished

[BKGlover]

Gahhhh.... I need some feedback!

 

[RACECAR]

Wow, impressive considering that setup was all last minute.

 

[yabiggoose]

Ooh yeah

 

[Pezzarinho17]

I'm getting more tempted to try to send a year long setup in - just to see the Silver Vodafone colours on circuit! I can't look at rFactor now, could you please inbox me setup ranges and I'll pick a setup without testing now...

Shut the front door, actually I'll take this livery Vodafone Black!

 

[Earth]

This is the first season so expect alot of changes along the way.

Newest change is to the schedule for the race 'weekend'.

Practice will continue to be on Monday. If you want to try a new setup in practice I need it by Sunday.

The big change is when qualifying and the race take place. Ive decided its terribly inefficient for me to sit on my hands Tuesdsy AND Wednesday in order to run qualifying and the race on Thursday. One day, Tuesday, should be plenty of time for a driver to choose a new setup for the race if he so wishes. So now qualifying and the race will be run on my PC every Wednesday, with the results and video posted afterwards as soon as possible. If you want to change your setup for qualifying and the race after practice, I'll need it before Wednesday.

The entire 20 minute qualifying session will be uploaded in [HD], as well as the entire 200km race.

Expect to see these videos to begin appearing tomorrow, Wednesday.

This is how spoilers are handled:

1. Qualifying and race videos will be posted in the first post. Text/image based results/stats will require you to click on a link clearly marked as a spoiler. Once race videos have been posted, only visit the first post to view the racing yourself first in order to avoid spoiler discussion elsewhere in the thread.

2. I will change the title of the thread to alert everyone the qualifying and race videos have been posted in the first post, and that the results are being discussed in new posts.

3. You are free to discuss the qualifying and race sessions in this thread. Again, to avoid spoilers stick to the first post until you've seen the race yourself.

[Gerarghini]

Hey @Earth, can you update the OP so I can, at the very least, see when the next GP is?

And that's a nice 2nd place for Team Hot Wheels.

Still need to update the scheme and upload a helmet design . Will do soon 👍.

 

[BKGlover]

Loose.

LOOSE.

Qualifying was a facepalm moment. Bets on how many spring changes I make this season?

 

[RACECAR]

What..a..race. That start alone was wild, thought it would be worse then that but surprisingly everyone made it through. 3rd place with a setup that was last minute is just incredible, hopefully it just gets better from there 👍

 

[swiftsmith]

Hey @Earth if you could PM me in the AM that would be great got a few questions for you. 👍👍 Also to @Dustone I'm very upset about what happen in qualifying *Insert Danica Patrick Finger Wag Here*

 

[BKGlover]

No one ate it on the start, which was amazing of itself, optiongamers is running with it when he gets tangled up with lap-down goofytyler, my car raced much better than it qualified, and it didn't try to destroy a wall.

Congratulations to the winners, better luck next race for the crashed, and I have to figure out why my 79 slides around so much.

 

[optiongamers]

That race was going great for me before that accident. Still a good race though.

 

[yabiggoose]

That is all.

Hi I'm new to GTP & was looking for a series that I don't have to do much in & while looking through the forums I found this. So I was wondering is it to late to join?

Turn 16 is going to be the downfall in qualfying and race.

 

[swiftsmith]

Just wanna say nice job to @quietgirl. I believe I owe her an apology. I thought she was gonna be a typical girl driver & wreck. Also nice driving out there.

Thanks & I owe you one as well because I thought you were a 🤬 at first but now I realize your not that bad of a person.

 

[BKGlover]

........I know that practice and qualifying aren't the be all-end all for the event, but doing well in them would help. I'm thinking I may need to scrap my setup and start anew.

 

[RACECAR]

Top 5. Lower then expected, though I'm glad to see I wasn't on the highlights reel for the typical practice incidents. Will need to perfect setup though.
