Matty is playing a GAA match today I think, after getting home at 5AM last night, and getting hardly any sleep since Sunday night, doubt the Sprint Cup is top of his priorities.

I really wish he would tell me these things himself.
 
Welcome to Team Ownership

I hear that. I've had two different drivers for SC fourth car and I still can't get anyone to commit. And not to mention the vacant seat in NW. But its a video game and life goes on, oh well. Hang in there Mule. These guys we hired are the only drivers out there who are willling to make somewhat of a commitment. And that's why we have them here. So this is what we have to deal with. Therefore it is what it is and it sucks to be us.
 
Here lag was an issue earlier. Hope we don't get the same.

Router resets etc please.
 
Rubber_Necker is going to unofficially race with Red Bull this race, but the official word will be posted by Mule :)

I already confirmed it ;)
 
Roger.............

See you at the randavou..............

Out.

Oops, sorry was just clearing my lines there. My bad :crazy:

BTW, are you going to send me a PM? You asked me to clear my box earlier but I haven't received anything new yet...
 
DC's, wheel failures, 4 retirements. After 15 laps. Wow.

EDIT: Wrong, my DC again.
 
**** that.

See you in season 4.

I can't tune for *** at Daytona anyway, even with a good setup to work from.

The incidents and lag in several series in the last couple of weeks have made my mind up, so I'm leaving all series I am involved in. 16 car rooms are too much for the game to handle, 12 should be the max.

I'll be back in season 4 if things are resolved. I'll check GTP again once the S3 chase is completed. Tom is now in charge of Ford and Knelly is in charge of Penske. If things are not resolved by then I'll post my setups and be gone.

EDIT: Wasn't your fault Furi. Others should have taken action.

Thats a shame Joe :(. In Indycar we had some good races.
 
I also had my wheel give out at Lap 112. Lost all force feedback causing my to wreck into crazy Ending my day.

Why IndyCar too?
 
Put too much fuel in at the end which stopped me from getting a top 5, if I'd have known better I would have taken less on. But to be honest, I'm happy with 6th after 165 minutes of racing. Big thanks to Drop for hosting such a great, clean race; and Cowboys, Knelly, RFLX, PartyHat, Fastfox and of course Joe for running with me at certain points during the race 👍

Joe - I'm sorry to hear that man. There's nothing else I can really say regarding this. But IndyCar as well? We've never had any problems with Indy.

Furi - Please consider staying on mate, your connection is not regularly bad, it may have just been a one off. Secondly it's gonna be hard enough finding one new driver for Ford, never mind two.

There's always Jakob ;)

Joe, man, sleep on it at least.

Know your pissed right now but, you know.

I could've left Indy after I wrecked and lost the win at Laguna, or got wrecked 3 times under caution @ Indy. But I didn't. 1 race shouldn't be a huge reason to leave and cut the series to only 12 people.
 
I just looked at the replay, and I don't think I forced him below the yellow line. If anyone has the replay and can look at lap 192 down the back straight and give their opinion, that'd be great.
 
I'll remain in IndyCar then.

Basically it's just a lot of frustration from how races have turned out over the past few weeks. Putting in a lot of effort only for something out of your control to happen and mess you up.

Sprint Cup season 1: Router issues in the chase
Sprint cup season 2: Router issues preventing me from entering races early in the season where I could have gotten extra chase points for wins, and the bump in the Indy chase race.
Sprint cup season 3: Racing accident on the first lap of the shootout, and the 500 as I described above.

Nationwide: caught up in lap 1 incident in preseason, and another incident in the 300 (somehow still finishing 3rd).

Trucks: Furi's recent lag meant his room was a little laggy, and I won the Daytona race due to lag taking out Furi and Tom when I was pushing them.

IndyCar: Joint least frustrating along with trucks. Recent frustration would be messing up in 3 races. In 2 of them I finished second by barely anything, and in the third I put a wheel below the line twice at Daytona, ruining my chances of a good end to the season.

DTM: Various lag incidents and racing incidents.

WSM: Lag at the start losing me over 70 seconds at a track where a lap takes 100 seconds.


Knowing me I'll be feeling different about this tomorrow and will want to carry on racing again in everything, I'm just getting more easily frustrated lately.
