[buybon355]

Cool with me. Take care Famine

 

[richroo]

Get Well bud , ready and willing when you feel better ..

 

[AndreasR]

Sure, all fine - hopefully next week all smooth, mate

 

[IfAndOr]

After spending 1 million credits I demand we race tonight. Or some other time.

Actually I'm really enjoying the 98T(ish) monster.

I'd disagree though. With the turbo boost set to seven it's hardly mild!

Catch you all next week. Hopefully.


See if you can get that wine on prescription @Famine, it being completely medicinal in nature of course.

 

[Sutsagrd]

I can’t join tonight so actually a postponement allows me to join you all next week to cause extra carnage!!

@Famine hope you feel better soon

 

[jammy21]

Yes (happy to postpone).

 

[O604]

I for one am disappointed of not being able to take advantage of a sick player.

Kidding of course. I could use the practice. See you next week.

 

[Zolon32]

Absobloodylutely old bean. Cuddle up with something mellow and medicinal and care for yourself, we all need to do that once in a while. Not as often as I do it, but once in a while anyway.

It doesn't mean that I've got top spend the night with the wife does it?

Cheers, Zo.

 

[Zolon32]

Well, I survived that ordeal...

What circuits has Kefuffle thrown up for us to wrangle the 1500s around Famine? I think we'll need some practice.

Cheers, Zo.

 

[JockeP22]

We're going to race the 1500s around Famine?
Alright, a bit unusual perhaps but I guess that could be fun for a while.
So Famine will be stationary in the middle and we'll all drive in a big circle around him then?

Think of him as an additional chicane to "Encourage overtaking opportunities"

I thought that was my role in this Career Mode Challenge.

OH 🤬

I thought I'd posted them, but apparently I didn't. It's Brands Hatch GP, Catalunya, and - and I hate that this came out - Mount Panorama. You nearly got Blue Moon Bay Speedway as well.

I fell asleep in the shower yesterday, so if anyone wants to postpone for another week so they can practice, I'm totally fine with that.

I'm not sure we'd get a single lap in the 20-minute window.

 

[Lazybike]

I'm easy either way mate, not sure any amount of practice is going to help with Mt Panarama..

 

[IfAndOr]

I fell asleep in the shower yesterday

It's all that medicinal wine!

...if anyone wants to postpone for another week so they can practice, I'm totally fine with that.

I'm fine with that too.

Starting to worry since you've been tired the last few weeks. But I hope it's nothing.

Falling asleep in the shower is pretty bad. Not sure how you'd expect to stay awake listening to us.

 

[Famine]

I've been having really odd sleep patterns - 4am-11am is pretty common now, though I got a nice, early, 2am night last night I'll see if I can shunt myself onto an acceptable schedule over Christmas.

 

[richroo]

just move to America all sorted lol

keeping the slot open so when your ready !

 

[daan]

keeping the slot open so when your ready !

Title of your sex tape?

 

[buybon355]

So are we parking it for a week then?

 

[IfAndOr]

So are we parking it for a week then?

Perhaps someone could open a lobby and maybe a few of the regulars will join.
Or you can have some PC2 tuition.

4am-11am is pretty common now

You mean that's not normal? I'd better look to changing mine then!

 

[richroo]

practice lobby sounds good say 5 laps at each 15 Q ?

 

[RACECAR]

Funny enough, I practiced at Brands Hatch alot in the F1500T-A since it's a track I know best from the Senna Time Trial so the first race is kinda convenient. Catalunya is the only F1 circuit I haven't practiced with this car so the should be reasonably interesting. And bathurst...well, this might actually be the one time I will have to use the paddles and have tcs on instead of going the full tryhard the H-pattern and no tcs because that is asking alot.

 

[Lazybike]

I remember Brands in the F1500 as a daily, it was good fun...

 

[RACECAR]

Forgot to say, I honestly would suggest not hosting until you are in a state that you feel alright. Falling asleep in the shower sounds abit alarming so I'm not sure that would be ideal in a situation with the sort've of visual and audio stimulus hosting this usually has.

I was sitting down, to be fair. It was just nice and warm, and the pattering sound like rain was nice and relaxing. It was like being in an ASMR video.

 

[jammy21]

I would love to get some practice with this combo on those track - specially Mount Panorama. Postbone a week again would be good as I have time for practice on weekend. Weekdays are busy.

Edit: what tires are used?

 

[homeforsummer]

I'm happy to wait again - good to go tonight (albeit zero practice), but long-ish day tomorrow so I'd be cool with getting an earlier night too

 

[Famine]

Race medium, please!

It sounds like you’re not very well! Hope you get better soon. Of course happy to leave racing until you’re actually better.

I actually haven’t tried this car at all so it works in my favour leaving it another week.
