There are few things I want to say and I'll do it publicly so no one thinks I'm being a b**ch about it lol.

First... Mrs. Neutty - Congratulations on finishing your full debut. Mad respect to anyone who sticks to it and finishes when things don't look like they're going their way.

@Nascarcory - Bro! You are fast...and over 5 laps you would be a force to be reckoned with, but this ain't that. I could sense your frustration last night, Heri did too and I understand, but this is something only you can fix. I looked at the replay and I could see what you were trying to do, but your aggression was primarily your down fall and will continue to be until checked. Being a Daily Race B kinda guy myself, I know this all too well. Hope you don't mind me saying.

To my teammate @Jacob Falcon - Chin up mate. Your luck will change, you just gotta keep at it and make it happen. I'm only half the team, you complete me hahahaha

@Neutty and @Herimopp89 - *sigh* The challenge you guys present is what makes this so fascinating for me. You two, Samhain and a few guys over at IROC (Antares, Originals etc.) are the ones I try to raise my level to. I have never been fast, but I've been operating at 150% just to keep up for so long that now it's starting to stick. In short, keep it up, everyone at ARL will be better off because of it.

@PApunk924 and @Phlano099 - You have gotten so much better in such a short time, it's amazing. I know it doesn't mean much coming from a pleb, but just wanted to state that it's noticed.

I'll shut up now.

@BGCaligula couldnt say it better myself after a dismal week of racing to get the win is great. Noir and originals filo are all fast drivers in there aspect of racing...considering originals was just in the New York event goes to show how fast he is. In that series a top 3 was a win to me.

While i do miss @SAMHAIN85 and the competition that he brought was bar none... I used to be one of those slow drivers then I started following both San and @Neutty and my speed greatly increased that and it just started to click in my head. A big deal of that I think has to do with project cars also had a big deal with that to teach me patience and car control as the physics in that game are ALOT less forgiving.

@Nascarcory just like bg said you have the speed now it is time to work on patience. Consistency is the hardest thing to work on hitting the same mark every lap.

Thanks for the complement, much appreciated coming from you...:cheers:

And Congratulations to Mrs. Nuetty on her first ARL Gr. 3 race, see you this Wednesday...:cheers:
 
Congratulations to the race winners, though I'm kind of upset over the arrangements of the event, which led to a bit of confusion and miscommunication from my end. Thus leading to another no-show when I'm actually online that day.

We will work on making sure everyone is aware of which lobby they are assigned. Sorry you were confused.

if needed hop in a lobby it dont matter whose lobby and we can tell you. I know not everyone checks GTP every minute of the day, we will not punish you if you get in the wrong lobby.

As for anyone who had connection issues like last week if at all possible before jumping into the assigned lobby try to reset everything on your side of the connection. We tried everything that we could this past saturday even by moving people around and what. I really hate to see someone try to race and not be able to race at all. Also communication is another big part if you are having issues please listen to the lobby host as we are usually in a party together and talking back and forth trying to figure the problem out. I know most people are trying to help out. but it can cause some confusion more than fix the problem.

Guys I hope we can get a full room @Neutty really put in some overtime on this one and if you like dirty races and chaos this is your type of race the whole scheme is something different weve never tried and looks to be really fun
I wish I could say I will race but I don’t think I could make that as fun as it sounds
 
EPIC BATTLES IN ENDURANCE
I took less fuel in hopes to come out on top of @Timlour or just behind him. Then i just drafted and tried to save fuel the hole time. Didnt think i would have a shot at the end, But i ran out of fuel just before the line. This is a Battle, ill always remember. This was at the end of an hour long race!

 
Now that I've finally cooled off after a dismal couple weeks, I want to apologize to anyone whose race I may have ruined in the early going this past weekend. We were quickly approaching the dockyard and everyone was bunched up pretty tight heading into the first turn of that section. I got a poor start off the line and hoped I could salvage some places with a late brake move into turn 2....definitely wasn't the smartest move since I completely missed my brake point running so close to the inside of the turn. Long story short, I yeeted the car in hoping it would stick but it didn't. I wanted to park it right then and there but I wanted to conquer my frustration....I eventually parked anyway after ruining my motor battling @jfalcon heading towards the pit area. I just couldn't take it anymore at that point. I knew the track decently well, but just not enough to keep my pace up and myself from ping-ponging everywhere.

I've hit another low with GT Sport (probably my lowest low to date) and I've been foolishly letting it get the best of me. I haven't been able to put as much time into GT as I'd like and it shows. Matter of fact, I really respect what @BGCaligula and @Herimopp89 stated earlier because the guys that they've mentioned have raised the bar to such a high level, every race with them is the hardest racing I do. I would like to believe I've just burned myself out (which is more than likely the case lol) trying to perform at a level I'm just not quite ready for, but I refuse to let that be the case. Seeing everyone progress is only inspiring me to work on my craft even more, so I just need to get myself ready.

Hopefully my jobs will slow down some to where I can log on more, but at any rate I look forward to the next race day!

:cheers:

Ha. Man, after reading that, even I forgive you...and I wasn't even in that lobby :lol:

Although it's possible you may get hit with a penalty, which if we're honest is probably deserved, you owned up and recognize the mistake. You can even explain how it got to the point it did. That's grown man stuff mate. I'm sure everyone affected will respect that.

Speaking of... who's got a replay of Neutty's lobby?

Never give up. Being able to co tiniest and finish the race NO MATTER the circumstance is when we learn the most. When we can put pride aside and reach our lowest is when we can learn the most in a race. My advice, no matter how bad the race goes, try your very best to finish. If you have to reach a mindset of I DONT CARE ANYMORE then so be it. What you can learn from that is way more than you can learn when focusing on each and every brake point.
It’s at that point you can UNlock yourself from those points and find new ones that either, save fuel, save tire, better laps, more mph.

I think you have potential to be extremely fast. You have shown it on multiple occasions this season and I can’t wait to line up next to you some day wondering if I have enough in my tank to beat you.

Stick it out.
 
Everyone in this league is stepping up big time when I started a year ago @Neutty was really the guy who took me under his wing and taught me so much about sim racing and how to be competitive. @Herimopp89 and I met a few months ago and at first I thought he named himself mopp because he was always wiping someone or himself out but holy cow the dude has gotten fast but don't worry @PApunk924 the only thing swelling is his forehead. @Nick Cannella when I met him back in snail endurance the guy spent more time in the sand than David hasellhoff. @TexasJDC was so timid he wouldn't even race his own Shadow and now look at both of them. I guess what I'm saying is every driver in this series just proves if u put in the time and with a brotherhood (with an evil step sister) sorry Mrs neutty :) everyone will continue to grow as drivers and make this league even better
