I may or may not be there tonight, we've got family over so if I do show, it'll be at the last minute.

I'd rather not miss another race :lol:

Say there is no beer and hide the cookies. they leave even faster then expected!
 
Just a quick question, I am also in a GT500 series. This season we are racing with 16 drivers before we raced with 14 becouse of connection and lag issues.

As you guys have experince with this, could you tell if you have any major problems with racing in a full room ?
 
my best 1.34.4 so far but previouse season we did race on Fuji Gt. It seems to be we race today on Fuji F.

previous race we only lost 1 racer. I have some connection problems whit some drivers. but i don't think there is something wrong whit my connection.
 
I am dissapointed in myself. My pace was good enough, my strategy too. But i raced very bad today.

Start was good, but then i think i did brake on the grass or something and lost my car. I knew i was gonna hit someone, Falcon was the lucky one. I apoligize. :banghead:
Then again i had a moment, i made a donut...don't know why but it just happend.
And on many places i was going wide, losing much time doing so. in every way possible i was really bad.

EDIT: I just saw the replay, i even didn't touched the grass i just lost the rear. maybe some Slipstreameffects.
i see you lost some time too Erik...sorry

i pitted Way to much with erik, but to be honest i'm not mad about being 9th, me and erik had a GREAT race, i loved it. that made the race so much better..

i spinned on the 2 or 3rd lap when i was 3rd with gp & immortal.. but it was overall a great race.

next season it will be much better i get more fimiliar with pit strategy!
 
generally happy with todays race, had some good clean battles with a lot of people.

slightly annoyed I spun on worn tyres halfway through the race which cost me 3rd but never mind, and on the plus side NO MORE BALLAST :).

very impressed with gp and immortal for managing a 1 stop :embarrassed:

no hope of catching them today.

Yeah i was quite suprised you guys pitted at lap 10, i was afraid you two were on hards :ill: after i ended up infront of you two i thought you maybe made that many stops because the tyres degraded badly becaus the ballast or something.

They did a two stopper like a lot of other guys :) they pittet after lap 16 I think it was and had their hard stint in the end.

We had an entertaining race with each other and it made being in the back of the field worth racing 38 laps. Nice racing from both of us, but I tried to hint to you that we shouldn't fight for position, but try to help each other gain on Maxitsu, but you didn't get it and we didn't do really fast laps. But all in all a fun race.

And the T500RS, is a kick in the face, I have to agree with Maxitsu that other wheels are toys, will take a lot of getting used to. It's more precise than anything Ive tried, but it also give you the real deal when it comes to handling a 500 bhp car. It really show you its a wild beast your driving.

Very interesting championship!
Better not to win the races in order to win the championship.
Otherwise with the ballast there is absolutely no chance to make it.

May the BEST win! Next championship perhaps without ballast?????

yea i guess i was having too much fun with the battle we got in this track.. but great race overall, hopefully next time were in the top, having this battle erik:dopey:
 
Scoreboard updated in the OP guys, let us know if there still are some errors to it, I tried my best to check it out, but it's a lot of numbers to it :P
 
I checked the replay, and gave a warning. For a Crash in lap 2, I have to admit I checked the replay a bit fast, but I didn't find anything else. And if there is something someone would have me checked I assume people PM me with their problems after the race.
 
I'am gonna remove the track map on my screen. I always have it on full view. i like to know when someone pit and were everyone on the track is. But i realise i am looking to much on the map. Last 2 races i was looking more on the map instead the circuit itself.

I am gonna remove it next race, or zoom it in to use it as radar. it maybe can helping to know were the cars are when defending.

Good idea Maxitsu, I also race with the full map of the track, no idea why really. I can see where all the other cars are, but In small tracks were we are all over the track it's hard to see who is who :)
So if I see someone in the pit it can be the race leader who lapped me or it could be the guy in front of me, I guess I find that out when passing the pit.

I do miss a in game timer to the car in front and the car at your back. When fighting for 4th position or even 6th,7th or 8th the time up to the race leader isn't really interesting
 
It's not the Thrustmasters fault alone I was slow on Fuji, I had a terrible setting for the car and I generally suck on Fuji.

I did a have a setting for the car, but wasn't happy about it so I asked my friend GP for help, but that didn't seem to help. So I tried set it back but I forgot to lower the rear wing value and got under steering when my tyres wore, made me go a lot slower and ended up pitting 3 times. I used settings sheet 2 on Fuji, I do not know, but I went back to settings sheet 1 for the Indy settings and I'm on 1:26 flat on soft and 1:29 on hard as my hot laps. What I consider to be pretty fast for me after 1-2 hours of setting up my car and driving around the Indy Circuit.

Yeah i miss split times too, compared whit the car infront/right behind you. :nervous:
 
^when r u putting a lobby today m8?

20:30 or maybe 21:00 CEST, Ive been in Sweden today and bought myself cigarets and some meat. I live in the very expensive Norway and just bought myself a very expensive steering wheel so instead of eating like a pore guy I went to our much less expensive neighbor country Sweden :)
