I don't know if the ill feeling has anything to do with this, but I'm sorta disappointed we didn't even get a full grid for Spielberg.

Hey Yera, where's your avatar from?

Michel Vaillant's Dossiers, titled "Ayrton Senna - Le Feu Sacré" (The Sacred Fire). Snapped a photo of the short comic in it regarding his F3 season in 1983, in this case on last race at Thruxton, where apparently mid-race he unfastened his seatbelts to try and remove the tape from one of the radiators which was used to help the engine get up to temperature faster (only for it to nearly overheat later on)...

PS: On the speech balloon it says, "I really need to remove the tape"

Something is very wrong :lol:

You didn't put flat floor on? 💡

No flat floor I don't believe. I will check.
EDIT: I did have flat floor on. I never noticed it. 488 pp.
@BRRT_Angel OP. :D

The new update also includes the VW GTI Supersport Vision GT. So how many of you had the chance to make friends with your Future Fast? ;)

Note to everyone: We may only be 3 rounds in, but this season has already produced some decent dictionary material.

God knows what my dictionary entry is going to look like. Probably a lot of mickey taking at my inconsistencies.
 
Like the PoS Mazda winning a race?
No idea, but the Mazda does appear even less competitive than when I last drove one, in S9. (Cue @Yeratel84 informing me that was not the case :P)
That's high quality @banter. 👍

To be fair, while I know a lot of people here would be thrilled to get a dictionary mention, I'd say that those who don't are the luckiest ones on the grid, as they're the least likely to be offended. ;)

Answering the call... :P

You won 1 race plus Indy title, I won 1 race plus Overall title, Snow won 5 races and helped secure SYM its first Team title and finally the three of us alone gave Mazda a proper GT5 send-off with the Makes title.

I rest my case... :sly:

I have a vague memory of my name being there, but can't remember the contents (nor if it was pleasing or offending), but if it compared me to Keke Rosberg, I wouldn't mind that at all... ;)

Wasn't the race you won also coincidentally the very opener of the season? ^^ Also, I think my frustration mostly came from the fact the setup I used successfully in 5OCA and some other series was no longer nearly as good as it was before, due to PD changing game physics, and no other setup I came across on my fruitless search was any better either. Depressing times. :(

And then there was of course 1066 Racing, the season's mandatory banter source... :D

Because of your age? :P

Ouch... right in the feels :lol:

I meant 1982 when he won the F1 title with only 1 win (which happened two years before I was born by the way :P)

Are you sure that this isn't to reduce the amount of air entering the engine to increase the ratio of fuel to air (ie, more fuel, bigger bang, more power). It's done in karting all the time.

Quoting from the text, it mentioned that day was a really cold one, and that was the reason behind the use of tape...
 
Surely removal of tape = more air getting into the engine = cooler temperatures, not hotter?

We had tape on radiators when racing Rotax karts to ensure the engine was running at optimum temperature depending on the air temp.

Wait, you're replying to whom exactly?
 
I suppose it's a fair choice to drop Willow as racing there would have turned into a complete cluster:censored: anyway.
