Appears to me, if finish line of lap 118 for us is used you had me by a nose. The end of lap 119 you had me by a car length.

:@: Owensracing, man I'm really sorry for causing you to spin. Didn't keep it low enough until I could back out and get back in line.

Yeah agreed, was super, super close though 👍
 
Sorry for not being able to race. My internet has been sporadic (I loose all internet including wireless on my phone) during certain random times of the day & night due to construction. A couple months ago we had freak flood. This happened during GT academy and the storms lasted for 2 days in a row.

If anyone is able and willing to count the laps led for Trynor and Grinols, that would be great.

Working on it now. Woulda been done sooner but had to take wife to tennis lesson/practice, then have dinner. Little over halfway through. Will pm spreadsheet when done.
 
Awesome, thanks.

I'll just have to watch for the incidents then. Makes my job much easier.

No worries. After the DC it was nothing. LoL I'd took another wreck opposed to a DC.

Not sure what happen with comcast. The service was back on with a few minutes.

Alright, so incidents:

Qualifying: conbon14 went into his tuning menu after putting a lap down on the track
-Ruling: Minor infraction; 1 point penalty

Lap 2: Neljack hit the wall in turn 2, and because of the stupid wall physics in GT5, is thrown into Carbonox when he tries to get off, causing a chain reaction which causes all three Roush drivers to lose the draft
-Ruling: Racing incident caused by silly physics. No penalties. Terrible luck for the Ford guys.

Lap 26: Conbon14 comes down across Neljack's nose and spins himself into the grass. Upon sliding back up to the track, a few cars hit him, but nobody (other than a laggy Chqr) loses the draft
Ruling: Mostly conbon's fault. He should have stayed in his lane and let Neljack passed. But he definitely got the worst of it, so that's penalty enough. No penalty

Lap 36: Smuffy hits the wall coming out of turn 4, and upon coming down, hits Conbon, taking them both out. Almost identical to the lap 2 wreck. Nobody's fault.
Ruling: No penalty

Lap 89: Akmuq comes down across Carbonox's nose down the backstretch, wiping them both out. Carbon definitely gets the worst of this one, unlike the lap 26 incident. Akmuq doesn't wait up for Carb, but Carb pit immediately after.
Ruling: 100% Akmuq's fault; minor infraction for "Causing an Avoidable Collision" - 1 point penalty

I haven't taken a close enough look at the Crazy/Carbon incident, or the Chqr lag wreck, but because I can't fast forward the replay, it's not very high priority. I saw both of them as they happened during the race, and although I could be wrong, I don't think they warrant any penalties.

EDIT: Okay, just saw the two other crashes: Crazy/Carbon was almost identical to Conbon/Neljack. crazy spun himself off of Carb's nose, didn't take anyone else out. Chqr's was a combination of lag and Smuffy not giving him mush room in the turn. Everyone knew Chqr was lagging. Both of them could have played it safer, imo. neljack was the innocent victim, but 50/50 between Smuffy and Chqr.

Pole position: Grinols
Laps led: Trynor, Grinols, OwensRacing, gokartman78, Chqr, RedPartyhat, D4LVY_
Most laps led: Grinols

Finishing order:

1. Grinols
2. D4LVY_
3. RedPartyhat
4. Akmuq
5. Crazy_Bassist_83
6. Carbonox
7. TRYNOR88
8. gokartman
9. Chqr
10. smuffyatfcp
11. itsvanilla
12. conbon14
13. neljack
14. dragonwhisky
15. OwensRacing

Points up shortly.

And here they are:

Woops, made one mistake. Carbonox got to the line before Crazy. will fix when I wake up.

I also have an idea I want to being up for helping me go through the replays. I'll do that tomorrow, too.

Good replay analysis.

As I said, I apologise for any lag I caused and it should be rectified next week.
 
You span me aswell neljack:-P

Yeah sorry dude swear though I was clipped by someone (accidently) and it then turned me into you, sorry :guilty:

I havent checked replay admititly, but Im pretty sure thats what happened.
 
Carbon beat me to line. But you did miss one thing. I did lead one lap when I was with Trynor. He let me take one or two laps. I'm not lying. If I admit to giving up a position to Carbon, me leading a lap or two should be considered. It did happen.

Check between laps 37 to 57. I'm sure it happened around lap 40. When the strategies flipped the grid during pitstops.

Gutted to miss out on having a team to control the race. Its not often you can take part in something like that. :dopey:

You're right. I completely missed you on Dragonwhisky's spreadsheet. My mistake.

Everything's been edited.

Does anyone practice during the week? I don't know Motegi very well, and would like to be able to practice with draft. Clearly running in the max HP rooms, will be useless, but running laps alone can only get me so far.

You don't need practice. You don't even need to lift off. Just use one of the tunes in your mega database and you'll be good. :sly:

Me and RPH may have a room up sometime, he'll tell you when as I may be unable to make it.
 
Alright, so a couple things I want to post here now:

The finale at Indy has been lengthened to 100 laps. This was something I meant to do after the real Nationwide race there, but I'm just getting to it now

I'll get to working on Power Rankings tonight as well as a race preview.

Now, here's something I want to ask you guys, I was unable to fastforward the Daytona replay from last race, because I was not in the race. It makes my job a lot more difficult when I can't fastforward to specific laps I need to look at, and whenever I clock in rewind, it just takes me back to the beginning.

So what I propose is that I run as a "pace car" as sorts, lead the field to green, but then stay on the track and run around by myself. I'll use a car that's slower and on sports tires so I can't interfere with the racing, and whenever a car gets close to me, I'll pull over so they can't get any draft from me. This way I'll be able to get as much of the replay forwardable as possible, making my job post-race much easier.

yes/no/maybe/72?
