GTP_WRS Online: Parity Racing: Deep Forest Reverse - 1975 or older - 12/13 April

[WRP001]

Is it too late for me to jump in? I practiced for awhile last night with the M3 and I think it's fairly close to being setup properly.

It's not too late. Go ahead and register you car with your specs (PP, HP, Weight, Max speed) and join us in the A lounge.

I'll see how I get on with my connection with no mikes - I couldn't stay in the room earlier because it was full and there was so many mikes going - my internet is not fast enough to deal with all that activity.

Yah, sorry Iain. You were having issues when there were just 6-7 of us in the lounge so the chances aren't great with 14+ even with mics-disabled... but let's hope the mics-disabled makes the difference.

Great racing today guys... can't wait to see some pics or even videos of the action.

 

[Vagabond]

What a great format - many thanks Tim... and all the guys. Awesome close action. 👍

Such mixed performance from me. In all the races, I ended up at the back either from slipping off the track in lap 1 or 2, or I think in both feature races I ended up on the receiving end of someone ahead of me losing it. But nonetheless, once I was at the back, I had some good racing. Feature 1 especially, I was a little way behind AspecBob after waiting for him so he had someone to race with, and I ran a low-ish 1.x 3 laps in a row, followed by a .9, followed by what would have been a similar time, but then AspecBob came off, so I waited again for him. Feature race 2 I was all over the place, but ended up having a great race with TombStone at the back.

So all in all, had some good fun, thanks!

I really appreciated your sportsmanship. Thanks again!

I didn't get to race with you much today... mostly my own fault for managing to go off track almost every race. Hopefully I'll make up for it tomorrow!

Love these random grids!

 

[Sjaak]

First position for me,heading last corner,GTP_Vagabond on my tail.
I brake hard and although my ABS was on 3,locked brakes,losing speed,Chris took the inside ,grabbed the win.

For the races which followed,ABS on 10,it went much smoother.

Absolute great fun last night,had some intense close racing with guys I normally see only on the map ,far in front of me.👍

Love this format

 

[Racingworld68]

Like already said, this is great racing, I am so happy I gave this a try. Close battle's and my first chance to drive arround track among the 'big boys' It sure is awsome when youre on the tail of Tim or Chris and you then notice they are only human too

So much fun, count me in every week from now one.... but first, see ya all this afternoon !

Edit : We have copy'd my M3 for Stef, as he did not have time to prepare a car, but wants to join this afthernoon. Think I read somewhere in the OP that this would be no problem....

 

[Racingworld68]

3D3 MainRacingLounge
Is open for pre-practise. Feel free to join 👍

Moved to A.

 

[WRP001]

Not a problem if Stef joins with the same car... there are no requirements to have a unique car... however, he should tune it for himself so he's at the target time.

Also, I think we should run in the "A" lounge. There are 17 with reserves!!! I'm not sure how many reserves are actually going to show up, but if we hit 12-13 with the close racing lag could be a major issue so better to play it safe.

Give me about 5 mins to set up A.

 

[WRP001]

The "A" Lounge (GTP_3D3_A) is now open for pre-race parity practice.

We are 9 confirmed + 8 reserves so going without mics. Only 15 are going to be able to join so the first 6 reserves in the lounge get the grid spots.

Done 👍 changed to his own specs for target time.

I just assumed it was on the same time as Saturday . Sorry I missed it guys.

 

[oink83]

Only just got home from work sadly, so had to give this run a miss. Hope it was just as fun.

 

[WRP001]

It was awesome today... just awesome close racing. 3 wide in parabolica... 3 wide in the first chicane... crazy, but I loved it.

Next parity event in two weeks.

And the Sunday time will always be early... read the OP.

PS> please finalize your specs if you changed them... I'm going to grab the specs for a historical record in a few hours.

 

[Cote Dazur]

This was fun, thank you everyone for such a good time. Congratulation for some competitive and utterly clean driving.
This track is a real challenge to race when it is as close as it was this morning, but all races had finishes with most of the racers within 10 seconds, amazing.
I hope I can make the next one.

Totally agree - fantastic to have such close racing with only the odd slight paint exchange here and there. That was some of the best racing I've had so far I think. Great job everyone. 👍 Great battles with Kevin, Tim, Bart in particular today.

I switched back to the Golf VI for the last race today Tim. The F40 beat me into submission.

I'll list you in the F40 today and the Golf for yesterday just for variety sake!

OOh, sexy paint job on that F40 I must say!

It was the closest thing to pink in the field today which made my son happy. (He hates pink.)

I knew I shouldn't have taken the highway to work during rush hour:

Thanks 👍 Imperial Red - one of my favourites. I'll send you a couple of chips for it later if you like (after reset at 00:00 GMT).

A few shots that just give a tiny glimpse of the action from the last race today:

If I get time in the week I might put together a little music video montage of the action.

Looks like great fun, I might have to try and make a Saturday night race, no chance of the kid's and wife giving me free time during the day.

 

[EDK]

Love this one, that Miura is sexy, eh?

Did you have to capture my lawn mowing?

Trail braking, much?

 

[oink83]

Yh, if you havn't noticed already, I will be driving a pink car in every event when it is possible to paint any colour. Consider it a trademark

Except that Wes beat you to the punch.

And for the record, I claim Purple.
