I'll be online in about an hour or so.

I'll go and sort some food out now then, maybe will just see each other passing today.

 

[sibbystiggy]

well it is but you think out side looks bad, you seen in car view!

could be worse, could be driving a Citroen c3
I see 1 everyday from my window, parked on my drive way, and another 1 parked outside my aunty's house across the road...

I can confidently describe it by saying: "the style is hideous enough to be revolted by those of us blessed with the gift of sight "

I'm sorry if anyone here owns the C3, but I am certain that the style wasn't what caused you to do such a thing with your money, (the insurance and tax is cheap tho)

 

[True-blue-8]

@Mikey24 are you going to be there tonight?

last week (or week before can't remember lol) we had @walker177 join. Few of us were impressed with him and e'll be taking a seat in D2 hopefully

 

[True-blue-8]

@Wavey2014 @Ant1974 @hcfirefighter09
you guys have been awfully quiet and no tests. Need some contact tonight otherwise I will have to drop you

I'm trusting people to be sensible in D2 and to be able to run it right while keeping me informed. If this doesn't happen I will have to cut it out

 

[CptMadBean]

Best lap now Alex_salmon 29.835, wow good going m8.
Have fun tonight all, I hope I get to read all about it in the morning

[sibbystiggy]

is it laguna seca tonight or motegi?
& sorry if I've not been keeping up to date but are we still in pre-season stages or will tonight be R1?

Yep would appreciate it if people could treat tonight as a proper race, and keep it clean.

Who else won't be able to make it to D2 tonight apart from Mikey?

 

[yuc2002]

Motegi, it's the last pre-season before R1

I should be online within an hour or so for hosting D2, hope to see you all soon!

 

[True-blue-8]

the main worry I have is for yuc. all it takes is for people to start messing around and then he'll get confused.
i'm giving people in D2 some roles, and hope things run well. can all D2 drivers save replays too

I believe mikey and hc are the only missing tonight

Durker? Dude, you had one job...

 

[yuc2002]

D2 room is up, I won't be able to talk until 5 to 7pm, but feel free to join and practice

 

[SkengD]

I will go with number 8 and reflex spice as colour .

 

[True-blue-8]

Ok, my ps3 sucks when wired, at least it stays running on wireless. Replaced the ethernets, hopefully works


All drivers to D1 now, we start in 5

 

[Pamellaaa]

Right, Feedback time:

Format worked well and the lobby seemed more stable (apart from @NinjaEvo getting stuck in the revolving lobby door at the start of race 3), I have no problem hosting every week that I can make it (should be every event but you never know what might come up) if people want me to.

I personally was finding no challenge in the life of the tyres, I was in an FF and in race 2 I gave myself 11 laps to do on the softs, they both dropped only as far as 9 and I still had good pace at the end challenging @xflow1390 for 2nd. I appreciate that other cars/drivers will use their tyres quicker and I think that race 2 as it is worked well but I would be inclined for race 1 to go back to fast tyre wear, I could have done the whole thing on one set without losing more than 1 second per lap.

As above, race 2 worked well, clear strategy choices to start on SMs or SSs and when to pit, getting it right was key and it was good fun fighting my way through the field with xflow because we had taken the SMs at the start and pitted early to maximise time on the SS tyres.

@alex salmon mentioned penalties and @Ian_83 flying past on the straight, if others feel a change needs to be made then I say we look at it but in that instance Ian had more penalty than you but he still had more power because his car started 40BHP above Alex's. I think that was more likely a case of Ian getting a good corner exit (as he always seems to) and having 22BHP more than Alex. @True-blue-8 what do you think about this?

I won't comment on driving standards just yet, I am going to watch the replay of race 3 now and will post up any observations I have shortly.
