GTP Nascar Nationwide Series - Series Champion: Spurgy 777

[Carbonox]

They didn't DC, they left for TOCA, you silly donkey mule.

 

[Müle]

They disconnected from the room. I don't care what reason. All I asked was for someone to tell me what lap.

 

[Carbonox]

People who set their gears to top out @ 192MPH even though I told you what gear you should set it to tend to finish below 4th position, Carb.

At least I had enough fuel, unlike *cough* some American fella I was racing with...

1. Joe 20+1+5 = 26
2. neljack 18+1 = 19
3. Spurgy 16+1= 17
4. Tom 14+1 = 15
5. Crazy 12+2= 14
6. Carbonox 11
7. D4lvy 10
8. RPH 9
9. Jammy 8
10. Gokartman DNF 7
11. Furi DNF 6
12. Chris 5
13. Ganon DNF 4

First wreck on lap 4 was odd, Furi barely tapped Chris's rear and Chris basically exploded in a fiery . Jammy, Furi, and Chris all lost the draft after that.

Second wreck on lap 93 occured because of going three wide, D4ve on the on outside tried to get in front of Tom but wasn't clear and got spun. Most of the field was involved but only Me, D4ve, and Carb got the worst of it and lost the pack.

On the final lap, fuel was very close with both Tom and Spurgy probably having 2 liters left and neljack going red on the backstretch. Everyone made it on fuel and Joe was able to pass KBM and get the win without any of his Phoenix teammates. Well done, Joe 👍


Also Red Bull struggles at Daytona openers continue and the 2010 Brian Vickers is still searching for it's first win ever in the GTP Nascar

I literally had the second pit stop perfect. neljack red lined on the backstretch on the final lap. When we exited the pits on lap 77, we NEARLY lost the main pack. If we had taken 1 more liter in the pitstop, we would have lost the pack coming out of the pit, if we had taken 1 less liter, neljack would have ran out of gas and maybe finished 5th. The three wide wrecked ruinied my race and forced me to start bumpdrafting with you and D4ve so I wasted fuel like that and had no shot at making it. Me and D4ve were running extremely slow anyway as it was basically a "2-car and a penguin who tops out @ 192MPH" bump draft.

 

[jammy21]

I didn't lost draft i just easy off because i didn't know what to do - wait Furi and Chris or just hang on with pack. Decided to go with Furi and Chris - that team work right? Although they left me alone...2 laps behind already after 1st pitstop

If I were you, I'd have just kept on going. If my teammates wreck but they were still maybe 5-7 seconds behind me, then I'd consider slowing down to get them. If my teammates, however, had a huge wreck and were 15-30 seconds down, then I would have to keep going. Anyway next week is Motegi so not much need for teamwork there 👍

 

[Carbonox]

And I would like a seat for Motegi from some team.

 

[jammy21]

Ok i keep that on my mind for next time...

 

[gokartman78]

yea joe, was all that setup hey . na im kiddin, great job fella!

Quoted from Carbonox, "I refuse to race in any Nascar series that doesn't have cautions!"

GTP Nascar Nationwide Series Season 3 does not run cautions. Therefore you cannot run in this series. Plus you will probably set your Transmission to max at 120MPH again.

Team Owners, I strongly advise caution if selecting Carbonox!

 

[chrisjohnson93]

my race was absolutely awful within 30 laps i was nearly 2 laps down with completely destroying any chance that my team had of a decent result due to lag. if it goes like that for the rest of the season then this will be the only season i do in nationwide or sprint cup

No, I said NASCAR series without cautions. This is a Nascar series...

 

[Spurgy 777]

Wow, didn't realise you got 5 extra points for winning those races

 

[Furinkazen]

I suggest RPH as a host. He's reliable, can stick to timing and has a super strong connection.

 

[cgr-10]

By the way fellas, when me and Sam renew our iRacing memberships in the summer, we were thinking about starting a team, mainly for NASCAR competition. Would be awesome for a load of us GTPers to link up and race on there 👍

Just so Mules aware, it looks like you've inadvertently missed Dave's extra point off. 👍

 

[RedPartyhat]

Ooops I'm bad @ this

D4lvy 10+1=11

Sweet would be up for this . What NASCAR Series?

 

[cgr-10]

It would probably be mainly Class A but I'm sure we could run some Class B and trucks too bud!

Ok I’m only Class D for Oval ATM

 

[gokartman78]

Ok I’m only Class D for Oval ATM

lol same

 

[cgr-10]

lol same

And me I'll have to work on that when I renew.

 

[Müle]

Thank you very much, RPH. Much appreciated. I'll get tables up tonight. Now, it's on to Motegi.

Also, Spa is confirmed for round 3. Suzuka East will move to round 8. This will be the first and last change to the schedule.

 

[RedPartyhat]

Still some time to do the NASCAR time trial in seasonals, 570 PP @ SPA

I gave it a shot. Did a 1:14.0, but very frustrated with many wrecks and dirty laps.

Drivers points tables up:

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AmrPKqYP5rlxdGVGbmZWeXU4Q3VWcDJUYmI2cVQ5WUE&usp=sharing

I tweaked the points a little bit. 6th place now gets 10 points instead of 11, all other places after 6th change accordingly, with 15th getting 1 point.

That's because I finished 6th, right?

 

[Knelly]

Just a small thing Mule, the table (looking cool btw), shows as Season 2. Unless I have been having weird dreams for the past year, it needs to be changed to S3.

👍

Damm, need to change my avatar

 

[Furinkazen]

Right, things have changed around these parts a little.

Ganon has quit Ford due to timing issues. Chris was released due to his lag. As a result Ford's new line-up is:

#43 Insignia - Jammy
#43 Best Buy - TBC, probably Stormtrooper.
#99 Aflac - Carbonox in the car for Motegi, with view to extending into a partial campaign alongside Widowmaker (who is definitely doing the Road Courses).
