My heart was pounding too, because everytime I got near you I did something stupid and spun, haha.

Also got caught in the gravel trap early then tapped Boshuter. I Should have raced better.

But yeah it was nice, when you made a small mistake so did I. Just didn't have the drive traction to get you as I used my tires too hard.

Phil, I saw that. Every time it happened I was like eff yeah! I really wasn't sure if I could hold you off.
 
Ok got done with all of the results. Congrats to everyone who participated!

Hopefully I can get by you next race, made too many mistakes this time, just gave away a place like that. Though I am bad at Daytona RC so we'll see. Do pop by for practice if you can.
 
I was going closer to the 25 sec mark. I figured after waiting ~20-25 sec on the line, it was close enough just to run the pace lap. The closer we run to the 500 guys, the less we get lapped (or at least delay the inevitable). It was my first time running with these guys, so I guess I have something to learn :P

It clearly states 20-30 second gap to 500s, so you were fine, no worries. Once you got rolling and the 500s weren't keeping pace, thats an issue on their part.


And shagg I posted a KPH thing after last race, but I guess they didn't read it? We'll have all these things cleared up, it's only the 3rd race of the season with all the new guys so I think we're doing pretty well so far.
 
So for next week, if I'm hosting room B, would it be ok to assume that the race should start at 7:30 (at the latest) and no race restarts after 10 minutes into the race for disconnects?

Nah it was my fault. Great win btw. Just too fast for the rest of us. Good car, good driver, no ballast. Now thats just asking for trouble. :P

I had to move my PS3 into my living room and well playing on a bigger screen is quite disorientating. Really unfocused last night. I like this track yet I was still struggling to keep her ass on the road.

Maybe a KPH to MPH conversion problem. Ill dust that up this week. Also I need a bit of an analysis from a driver with a room a replay. You can post the replay here or tell me a lap breakdown. I need to know how many laps each driver ran so I can see how to fit room b with it 👍

Congrats to Pablo and Joey on their wins 👍

When comparing room A and B, are we seeing who completed most laps or are we seeing who completed lap 29 the quickest? Because if we do who ran most laps then room B have more time do to the fact we have immortal blasting through the field and completing his 30 laps quicker than anyone else. Therefore less time for room A 300 drivers....
 
I believe Room B players can't place better than Room A, unless someone lags/disconnects. I think it's too hard to figure out otherwise because, for starters, the pace lap for the two rooms can vary widely and race incidents in one room have no effect on the other.

When analyzing the results, I definitely put the pace in mind. I upgrade a driver's room b result if it is obvious that they would have placed higher if they would have raced with room a. So any lag outs or if someone goes many laps down to their class leader then I consider that 'obvious'. It's basically a judgement call but if there is a tie or anything that would be consider debatable, I give the spot to room a as they did earn it through qualifying
 
Good race last night I was actually gaining time on Immortal with my first stint but then I just spun every stint afterwards. Also I should of pit @ same time as Benny & IMMORTAL I didnt have good enough tire wear to make 2 pitstops work.

Shaggs Indy tune worked well here with increased ride height. I got my laptime down to 1.55.7 with no draft in the race.

Glad I could help 👍

That tune I gave everyone, all I adjust is ride heights and brake bias per track. So should be pretty decent everywhere.

Racing the way it should be. Your in 3000 ibs boxes, you best race like that. Best finish I've seen in years possibly.
 
Ashamed to say I see almost no real life racing. I only know cars through GT5 and the previous games lol
 
Anyone have a link to the highlights of the race? I dont really watch nascar but from what i've read it must have been good display of turning left....
