I started my last lap at 14:45 lobby time, 27 seconds into my lap neuttyy said qual over finish your lap. My last lap was a 1:39.189

Yes I watched him just ahead of my qualifying so he is absolutely correct. I should not get any points for that.

That was really close :cheers:
 
Great race last night @Neutty I had a lot of fun with that. Although, had you not ate the chicane I doubt I had anything for you. It’d be nice to be on 1 lap fresher tires every week! I was chatting with my team @||Nova|| (who I don’t know how to tag) and @GTP_Guido before the race and discussing strategy I said my only strat is to stay off the wall and whoever can do that, regardless of their pace, will finish well. Turns out that was the difference between 2nd and 3rd in our lobby. I don’t wish anybody to hit the wall and force pit but it sure made the closing laps much more exciting. :cheers:

Wow 2 great finishes over both classes. @BGCaligula man I was telling @Neutty I doubted I had anything for you all night long as you have finally figured that supra out and to squeeze away a wim from you was very surprising to say the least.

That's humbling, to say the least, but you're right, I feel very comfortable with the car now. Ever since Yamagiwa actually. In chat with the guys after the race @Neutty made a comment about getting the car off the line and how much it cost me. He's right, but it was more than just the start. I was in 4th by turn two, then had a spectacular off at the top of the S's that took me down to 7th. Still don't know how I saved that, but shout out to @NASCARNATE91 and @Grandpa Money for their avoidance skills because that could have been bad. It's funny how the chicane of death rarely ever gets me, but that turn at the top of the S's got me two races in a row. From that point on though, the afterburners were lit. I wanted to get back up to Neutty. That was my singular focus.

When I caught @NASCARNATE91, I was like "I'm not making this mistake again" lol. I wanted to get past and get this dude out of my slipstream asap. Don't care if I have to burn fuel to do it. He has a knack of sneaking up on you and then staying there...waiting. It's ominous! Neutty was on worn tires at the end, but he can see what I mean. The last few laps with you two were very entertaining.

Congrats to @Herimopp89 and @Rinsky on the wins. Hats off to you.

Overall, great job by everyone in the lobby. This race was incredibly eventful and a ton of fun. I'm uploading my on-board now, gonna post it later.

:cheers:

My advice probably isn't worth much, but for anyone wanting to improve...Focus on consistency, not pace. The speed will come on it's own as you get more consistent. Hit your braking points, hit your apexes and everything else will fall into place. This is what I've been focusing on and it's working so far. Also, check out SNAIL Endurance and jump into as many races as possible with guys you know are quicker than you. It's amazing how much you learn by placing yourself in those positions.
 
Just so you know I won't accept any points I did not earn.
They have a lot to keep track of and I honestly don't know how they do so much across so many different races.
I think anyone else would make way more mistakes.
Mistakes happen from time to time but we will help keep it honest.
 
Thanks guys. Forgot to post about points/drops:

Points are scored with the drop in effect.
  • Drivers with 9 races, top/highest 7 scored
  • Drivers with 8 races, top/highest 7 scored
  • Drivers with 7 or less, total point value

Now me and @Infineon both are being made to work day shift next Sunday so I have to be up and gone by 3:30am Sunday morning.
It's going to be a tough call for me to race next Saturday. I'm not making that decision yet but if I miss it will bring @GTP_Guido within a point or two if he wins next week.

You have one drop week left. So hopefully you can make 2 of the 3 remaining races. :cheers:

If I have to miss next week then it will be the last race I would miss for the rest of the schedule. I would not miss at all if it wasn't for my stupid work changing our start times.
I will be on Xmas break from December 23 to January 3rd

I think that's the beauty of having two "drop" weeks, for low scores or missed races.
 
Though it was only for like a 1/4 of the race, I must say running with @Neutty was quite a humbling experience. I have a lot to clean up as far as my driving’s a concern. Need more seat time too lol. There were some sectors I thought I could match you but I never quite had as much of a handle of the track as I thought I did...or at least you proved that. :lol: There was one moment I caught back up to you a little ways through the race via pit stops and you made absolute easy work of someone in the second sector. I realized then I was dealing with a whole different level of driver and racer. I’ve never seen such a determined drive. Really not trying to kiss ass here, but your performance was incredible lol.:cheers:

Lol. Thanks. I just couldn’t find the pace last night. @BGCaligula had me beat by a long shot. It’s back to the drawing board here.

Step Dad Racing still hasn’t provided me with a “NEW” Supra yet, still running 2 seasons ago stuff lmao. @BGCaligula showed that a new Supra is where it’s all lmao.

I was impressed with your pace last night as well @7ylerallen i think if you would have ran my pit strategy you could have had a better turn out. Lots of people in this league have gained sooo much speed in the last few seasons, I’m starting to feel like I’m a sitting duck in the seasons to come.
