Well I didn't mean to point you out. Seen more people go over those curbs like they don't exist.
Good thing to have in the open, so everyone knows the policy on it, even though it's in the OP
I would maybe accept going over it in corner 1, first lap of the race as it is a lot of cars going into a really sharp turn. But I've seen people behind me can't take the last turn as fast as me and instead of braking to manage the turn they seem to think that it doesn't matter. Not only does it save time, but tyres also.
What's the point of practising to get the best exit of corners when people behind you use what ever they can to get their slipstream. It's the reason I practice exit of last turn, and it's kinda wasted in the end.
We are 3 supervisors this season, hope that will affect the penalties a bit.

Well this is why we have penalties and stewards and trust me whomever I see cutting corners in an excessive nature I will report you like a whiny Ferrari driver.
ProPersian and I race a lot and he is a very clean driver , we did have a incident in the prior season on Grand Valley but hey that's racing , I don't think the stewards will have any issues with him in the race

I have to say the same thing about SkengD, he' s a Very clean driver.. but on the point where Erik highlighted.. i think on the 1st lap the green area should be open for drivers to use IF they see some crashes or stuff like that in front of them, and want to avoid it.. you know using the great area with a good reason i mean.. good point there

Looking forward to the test now. Just hope it works so we could start up this championship.
We do a couple of tests.
First we just qualify for 5 mins. gives us one or two hot lap(s). No this isn't a race so position isn't important so 5 min is all you get.
We do it just to see if we still can start from pit. So after 5 mins we go back to pit and start the race. Race will be 6-7 laps of fuji (as everyone have their setup for this track) and I urge everyone to finish the race even if the lag in unbearable. I want the replay of it with all guys on the track.
If this work we try set the race to 38 laps and just go, no qualify. We wont go 38 laps, but will finish it after 5 laps.
If it works great, then we just start our kart fun, but if not we will have to reconnect as I set up the room with other settings just to try things that could make it better.
I hope everyone show up, this is race day at race time so it should be perfect for everyone signed up. I still remember anastasis will be a no show and he have a perfect reason for it.
Stuff I read that might make things worse is things connected to your USB, so if you have anything else than your wheel. unplug it if you can.
Also some weird stuff about the Clock in the PS3, I adjusted mine and it was like 4 mins off. I really don't think it will do anything, but its a 1minute deal to fix it so I don't see why not try.
We do it with no mics so turn your mics off, maybe even remove it from your ps3 if possible.
Make sure the in game system cache is empty
Feel free to add things I forgot to the list.
See you guys on track, missing the racing now!!

Yes, we could need a few replacement drivers for this test. Having 12 is not the same as having 14. So test will be useless with 12 people.

Quick question here, is the rule to use only 1 set of softs, and unlimited sets of mediums, or is it that you can use as many sets as you want as long as you use 1 set of each compounds?

Only one stint on softs is allowed in the race. You are not forced to use the soft, so you don't have to use the softs if you don't want too. And you may use any other tyre as much as you want.
You can do a full race one only medium or/and hard tyres whitout using softs. Using the softs is completely optional.

It's possible Phil can join us, to get more people in the room. Not sure though, his word was I try my best to be there.
If we can't get it to work we have to look at other solutions, like open up the sign ups to get 4 more drivers and split us up in two groups. I hate the word divisions as it splits up the group in high ranked drivers and low ranked drivers.
I've been thinking of a solution and if we split up it should be done by teams. This way we get one of each car in each group.
Even if we split us up we would have to do it by seeding drivers, so we get two similar strong group's so the challenge is just as great for everyone racing.
I haven't really done detailed planing about this, but this is something I have in mind. I know someone doesn't like the idea to split us up, but it might be the only solution if PD doesn't react to the problem with having more than 9-10 drivers at the track.
I really want it to work and I will try my best to work around the problem the online bug have caused, but we need a back up plan. I guess more of you guys have the same feeling I do. I miss racing and I don't feel like waiting until Mach or even June to wait for PD. It could be fixed by next week, but as they refuse to respond to the problem and keep us in the dark it could be because they don't care, don't know or can't fix it. I'm not willing to give up racing because the online experience is limited to 10 drivers on track. Most races we done during season 1 and 2 had about that amount and I still had fun.
And before someone goes crazy about splitting us up, it's just something I have thought about.
I really hope everyone who haven't already said they can't be here show up, it's the only way to try work around the problem we know is there. See you tonight!

No worries Arkano, we missed everyone. Netherdragon, Maxitsu, ProPersian, Adam, Skengdigi, Falcon was there. JoeTruckV8 joined the room to idle. Joey showed up to help fill the room. Thanks to everyone showing up.
I would just like everyone to know that I'm here when you guys decide you will show up to test this out for real. But please give me a pm, I'm done spending countless hours for you to not show up. I'm not angry at anyone, I made a choice to be dedicated. But now I just missed the point of it.
See you around.. maybe
