Hello,
First of all, I'd like to say that I'm new to gtplanet so please correct me if I'm doing anything wrong.
Secondly, i was wandering if there are still any spots available for the remaining of the season. I really can't say with certain i will be available for the 5th and 6th races, but even if i won't, i can definetely do Brands and 26 laps there should be quite an enjoiable experience.
If i am allowed to join this race, here is my info:
GTPlanet Name: PTLobo2
PSN Name: PTLobo2
Car: Porsche 911 RSR (991) '17
Number: 911
Livery: It will be a custom made Gulf livery
That is all, thank you.

Hi and a big welcome to the series and to GTPlanet!

I will add you to the entry list and no worries if you can't make rounds 5 and 6. Just let me know here wether you will be on the grid or not for those events nearer the time.

👍:cheers:
 
@paoloevans My G29 is currently out of service (but got notification from Logitech today that they will replace). Im going to put Racing on hold until its back up and running as I'm not enjoying it on the Pad any more.

I will be back but feel free to replace me if you get full up.

I've only done small runs but I think the gravel will be my best friend for this one:lol:
 
Round 4's Success Penalties:

xZePhyR96x - 10 seconds
Spiner-kopin - 7 seconds
Geo_kbc - 5 seconds

* SAD REACTIONS *

I suck really hard in this track...This 5 sec is just the cherry on the top :dopey:

EDIT: And if this wasn't enough...I hadn't played the game since our last race in Red Bull Ring, so I never updated it...And it needs around 2 hours now to download new material. So, be aware of me. I will not be 100% ready for the race. Not even 50% ready :cheers:

After reviewing the pit stops here are the final outcomes:

@HoonigaN96 - I am happy that you stopped for 10 seconds after pitlane exit. NO PENALTY

@Spinerkopin - You took 6 seconds extra while refueling so I will ADD 1 SECOND onto your race time to make it to your allocated 7 seconds. Therefore your final finishing position is 6th and that promotes @Nico_Ble99 to 5th place.

@Geo_kbc - you didn't stop at all but I noticed you did slow down to let 2 cars back through. However I am going to give you a 10 SECOND PENALTY added to your race time as you did not stop stationary at all. You still hold your 10th position anyways so no change.
 
Where to start....

This was by far my BEST worst race in a long time.

For some reason I did a good lap in the qualify which put me in P2. I felt like a thug, dude. Almost no practice and I am that high! Hell yeah! I was 120% sure that I was going to fck up ridiculously hard in the race, though.

And guess what, I did! :bowdown:

Lap 2: Mistake, BOOM. P3
Lap 3: A complaining dude said something in the chat. I was like. DON'T LOOK AT IT. DON'T YOU DARE. And OFC I did, and while reading I went out in T5. BOOM P4
Lap after lap I was doing tons of mistakes, but I had a nice fight with n_blkr. Kudos man!
Lap 12: Pit stop tiiime. I think I was P4-5. And BOOOOM. I forgot my 5 sec penalty. I felt so stupid...

~ QUICK KINDERGARTEN MATH TIME ~
I was 1,5 sec behind Spiner-Kopin while pitting. He had a 7 sec penalty, so I should be JUST in front of him. But, I wanted to punish me more so I let him pass me and left a 1-2 sec gap. LITTLE DID I KNOW that he had also forgot about his penalty....(You can add me a whole minute as a penalty, no prob)

Lap 13: This is were the party started.

Me: Honey, are you downloading something?
She: No
Me: I have some crazy lag over here, are you sure you are not downloading anything?
She: Noooooooo

She was

Lap 13-18: This could be a movie. For 5 laps cars flying everywhere, passing me on reverse, crashing all around me. AND THAT'S OK. The hard part for me was that the flying cars destroyed EVERY SINGLE GOD DAMN BRAKING MARK. I am not talking about cones but BRAKING MARKS. So I was blind for a few laps, AND OF COURSE I CRASHED, I AM NOT THAT GOOD.
And of course the game gave me a 5 sec penalty for crashing on my own. Why not! Fck this guy!

After this I cruising with my good friend, lag. Good guy.

Lap 26: I was P9, and I forgot to get rid of my precious and well deserved 5 sec penalty...I tried to brake but...niet...3 secs added time in the end, and P10 it is

It was a good day

Mate crazy lol!! I spun twice in the first 5 laps and could never recover. My worst race as well.

Bring on Le Mans eh.....
 
And sorry about the penalty. I would NEVER do anything shady. I just though this would be a good way to continue the race without having to completely stop. But... :dopey:
 
That was a good race guys, thank you!
I pretty much didnt make any mistakes, really.
I could have qualified a little higher, as i was about to start two fast laps with new tyres and very little fuel, if it wasnt for the accidental start to the race.
On what regards the race itself, it went exactly as I wanted.
In the early stages, I didnt care much about track position and tried to save as much fuel as possible. I was in 7th a certain point but gained lots of positions during the pit stops and went up to 3rd. And I never lost that position again to clinch my first podium!
