Never raced (or even driven at) Madrid Reverse before. While I know Laguna is next Im going to test abit at Madrid.
If any of you need to qualify I'll be there too with Alefin.
 
Going offline for a bit, I have to go run some errands.

Last I checked TDZdave and phil were still online.

TDZ-4-12-14-88 and PepsiMaxCrew are their respective PSN names.

Qualifying time:
Bahundanda - slsamg69
1.25.903
Premium Subaru

Was looking good but some mistakes put him in the sand and really hurt the time.

Im going to sleep Im still sick. :P
 
wow, I think I might have a front row start for room B, and I think phil is just going to make the cut for room 1,
 
These lap times are a relief. I thought they were going to be in the 22s-23s. Been bonkers at work this week... but the missus and kiddo are going out of town all weekend. Giddy up baby. :)

p.s. thinking about building a ricmotech rig.. thoughts? Also I'm using a DFGT from logitech... it seems alright but now that i'm getting more serious about this hobby I'm curious about mods and maybe upgrading. I hate the pedals on this kit. I've added some bungies to tighten up resistance but the position either flat or raised still doesn't work out for me very well.
 
Well, beat this alefin! The place at the end of the field is mine :dopey:

I had that spot and you took it from me lol.
I choke so bad during qualifying :crazy:. 3rd lap I pull a .1:25.780. Finishing the 4th lap, (doesn't count) I get a 1:24. :ouch:

Ok, I finished Room B's replay, but I'm still figuring out Room A's replay. I around lap 17 to 20 observing the Mike, Seth, Phil, and Tyler fiasco.

Slsamg (lap 2) Coming down the straight after a draft pull slsamg dives underneath Zack and knocks him pass the outside corner white line at turn 1, but takes off afterwards so he will get a +30 sec drive thru penalty for that move. <------

Silander & Zack (lap 8) Sinlander breaks early turn 5, and Zack draft pulling behind him dives for a pass on the inside of Sinlander at turn 5 but does nudge Sinlander a bit. Afterwards Zacks fender was in front so I gave him the right away at that moment, but Zack got his tire on the inside grass which off-set is car and him Sinlander bumped again but Sinlander had the inside for turn 6 and when Zacks car came down to apex turn 6 Sinlander gave him the pay back nudge for not handling his car which sent Zack of track, but this incident I could see where both drivers were coming from so unless one of you guys wants to push the issue on this. I'm going to chop this up as a racing incident. If you guys want to pursue the matter I would need the stewards verdict on this one, I cant call it.

Unless someone wants to report something from Room B that's all I saw that should be under investigation.

Room A:

Skeng (lap 3) Cam flashes Skeng for the pass move going into turn 1, and Skeng deep brakes to keep the Lexus behind him but slides into Flank. Skeng gives position back but cam makes up 2 spots I normally wouldn't penalize this because Skeng gave the position back, but his contact cost Flanked a spot so he get's a 5 sec penalty for causing a incident. <------

FreshSeth (lap 6) FreshSeth slides into Phil at turn 1, but Seth makes sure Phil keeps his position. No one loses their previous grid positions so this is a racing incident no penalty.

MikeGrove (lap 8) Mike Grove after a draft pull dive bombs and knocks Seth wide, but let's Seth keep position. No one loses their previous grid positions so this is a racing incident no penalty.

I'm reviewing lap 17 - onwards for Room A so I'll have it done this evening. If anyone has a particular issue they want me to look at plz send me a pm. Tyler I'm keeping a look out for your lap 20 incident.

New Rules:

I caught someone coming out of the pits and completely cutting across the white line and the track for that matter and this will not be allowed. I'm mandating a new rule for no cutting the white line coming out of pit lane. I'll be watching every driver that pits for this infraction. If you cross the white line it will cost you a 30 sec drive thru penalty!

@ Skeng I watched your on board replays chasing and running from the Lexus's. I could clearly tell that even tho you were drafting a Lexus your chassis couldn't really reel him in and when you were chasing two Lexus's this was even a harder task. The Lexus was down graded 10 hp so hopefully that new reg will allow you to catch the prancing Lexus's but if not I will allow that car to get a 10hp gain for the on coming races in the future. unfortunately we have to wait until the Monza & Spa round to get a clear picture on this most likely, but I will be checking out your replays to make sure you can fight with the pack! 👍

You guys are right about the Mr-s it could use some help too. The only people I know driving this chassis is Veloci & plc, and from racing plc last night my car just rolls right pass him so I'm open for any way to enhance the Mr-s but I need feedback from the drivers to make a dissension on if it should be weight or hp?

I'll be ready to qualify people 6 hrs from now when I get back home from work.

I've added the 30 second rule. I'll work out the race results when you finish reviewing the replays.
 
From my point of view zack was lagging all over the place so I just tried to hold my line. I dont think any of those contacts were intentional.
 
I'll be on soon, for quali, alefin.


Also, Joe, I was in MR-S in Room B last time. I too noticed a poor straightline speed from the MR-S, you can check Room B replay...

Yea I picked that up to I could barely watch his on board camera, it was laggy as hell!

Mr M, I noticed your lack of top speed as well. Do you think that car needs more hp or less kg? I was thinking hp by the way I was able to pull away from plc.
 
HP might be + 10?


Otherwise, the MR-S is great, & I'd barely switch it for anything, except the BMW 328i touring car..

I'm on GT5 now. Quali?
 
I don't recall either of those 2 incidents so I'm fine at letting them go lol. I remember being pushed off track alot, but that was because of lag and I have no issue as I was the one who always went off track.

I've been hosting rooms all week with no lag, so I should be fine tomorrow

Edit oh wait I remember the early bump from SLS that lost me like 20s lol. Alls cool mate, I assumed you'd missed your braking as it was early on and nooses ever too sure in first few laps...
 
Ok let's let Mr M, plc, and/our Veloci pick which is better since their driving the cars? I'm open for both ways.
 
I can't make the race this week guys, as I'm going to be at the Long Beach motorcycle show :D

I think the MR-S needs a lot of help, so I would go for the -15kg. I was only able to get a 24.9 at laguna, iirc, whereas I was hitting 23s-24.deads easy in most other cars. I'm confused as to why it's so much slower. (i was running my 70kg ballast on other cars too)
 
Ok so well try -15kg if everyone agrees?

Ill be in my lounge doing some laps for about an hour if anyone needs to qualify plz stop on by or send a FR if need'

We need hp, don't listen to Seth... I was faster than the Lexus in the MR-S in the corners, but, WAY slower on the straights. Ask Sandwiches.
