edit the bracket Duman079 didnt participate today

I cant edit the names once it's started. If you check under the bracket it says that duman isn't competing and his name is representing someone else

That is an awesome write up, you deserve a definite high 5 *gives night spirit hi 5* I like how your natural journalistic side that you showed in that article...'are you interested in doing some commentary?

 

[speedthrill]

chrissy...........VS...........Bert
i9-wilson-9i......................bertvw
D-Trick............................<ACN>apprentice
England..........................Belgium GMT+1

When it is in England 3 o clock, it should be 4 here... We're GMT+1, wich is Greenwich Mean Time + 1, England is mostly GMT, i think the numbers 2 and 3 need to be switched?
Or when do i need to be there?

 

[Hayden]

Just payed FRAG as a thank you for judging... Without him this tournament may not have been possible. Thanks again GODfreyGT5

I paid him with a new drift toy FYI

 

[speedthrill]

Good stuff anyways guys, a massive thank you from me, and my supra!

And yes, today my first real battle. Massive good stuff and amounts of fun these 2 (3) short laps where.
Nice going sideways with Wilson, who lost his downshifter it seemed. Respect mate!
We also had a little problem just after 2nd lap with server goind down and needed to redo the 2nd one for clarity.
Overall: i want more!

I only was able to make some pics of the second run, due to server going down and replay not saved.

Thanks again for all the work you guys!
Fun stuff!

 

[Hayden]

Great pics man!!! I cant wait to see how you do in your next battle

 

[Keisu]

Ready for the battle.

 

[Hayden]

I'm on the way

 

[speedthrill]

I just checked the first page to see the movie, but it's on private, only youtube friends can see it. You forgot to set it on public.

 

[Hayden]

Just watching that second run of i9Wilson9i and Bertvw. Is the Supra Considerably slower than most cars or just not tuned a huge amount? not exactly a quick run by any standard...

But Congratulations to Bert and i'll see you next round

 

[GODfreyGT5]

I won't be free next weekend until late Sunday, so could I battle my Rd2 against Cervatoz on friday, or any other day of the week really.

Thanx man, well yeah, the Supra was 488hp tuned when i normally used it, but this competition says you can't use tuned turbos, wich i don't know really get by the way but no worries, so i had to detune it too 420'shp with default turbo. I'm just getting used 2 days now to the new slower setup and it is indeed a bit slower.

First run though i needed to wait a bit due to Wilson spinning almost. So the run was'nt consistent. but generally not that fast indeed
see you there

edit: saw the movie and it looked like i was lagging abit, maybe next time i need to boot my lounge up. not sure though

I think this is full already.
Though why doesn't OP do some commentary on this?

When it comes to our battle we'll have a couple of tandems before the race to see if my car hammers yours in terms of speed? that way i can detune my car so i am in same speed as you? i dont want a ''ONE MORE TIME'' lol

 

[Hayden]

It is full but your name is now down for next round

 

[GODfreyGT5]

Knight_Spirit vs Tumzmyfuz80

A wobbly start and three wheels off lost Nathan's hopes round the first section, before tuzmy dramaticly lost pace and dropped back causing a considerable gap, which was then coupled with an off-camera 90 degree stop.

6-4 To Knight Spirit.

A correction from both drivers round the first corner put them even. Tuzmy made an un-missable mistake and lost all 5 points with an off-track. A couple of slips from Nathan into the next corner got him worried. After a couple of corrections, Tuzmy lost lots of speed round the blind uphill, causing Nathan to bump his car. As the initial mistake was from Tuzmy, it cannot loose him too many points.

7-3 To Knight Spirit.

13-7, Knight_Spirit wins.

 

[Hayden]

thanks Chris, i couldn't be there (sleeping again), good write up again mate. I would like to recognise your help somehow...

 

[jimy281090]

Give*out*a*outstanding*achievement*award*in*his*name*lol

 

[Hayden]

^^^Good Idea... give it To the person who has to wait for their competition to show up for the longest. Chris has been a true blue legend throughout my poorly organised tournament. I feel guilty that i've only given him a lexus for all his work. It is a $900,000 lexus but i still feel bad...

 

[jimy281090]

Next Round Don't Set Dates Until The Fine Details Are Sorted That Arranges EVERYTHING! lol

Cool man, we need like an hour, half an hour practice together, 5 mins of knowing eachother is just too short.

Yesterday i jumped on a pubbies server and had a great drift with an Italian bloke. Magic started happening after half an hour, 3 laps back to back tandeming without mistakes. 300Z nissan was his, 100 hp more.

It is all possible if you know how to slow down a bit while drifting.

Mr; Dinosaw: First tournament ever holding tandems in GT5, can be a bit messy in the beginning, you'red oing fine, and so is Chris really doing fine!! Don't blame yourselfs for things difficult to achieve.
We're battling here with people from around the world sorta speak, and it's still going fine! So no worries

Chris: i loved the song in your last movie from the battle! Was jamming around on it while watching the battle, catchy tune!

 

[GODfreyGT5]

I've seen a few violations to one rule in a couple of battles, waiting for a crashed driver. This rule was in place to allow the other driver to score a few points back after a mistake.

Could all drivers take note of this for round 2 to ensure an even competition.
