can i join as a provisional? i will leave if slots in the lobby are needed

 

[chacha]

I am hosting a 2nd room in the open lobby if anyone wants to have a 2nd group. (title is LMP 1 Hr Endurance)

How do you set the race length to 1 hour?

 

[Furinkazen]

I would like to join as reserve entry at least.

 

[Scorpion0001]

sorry I missed your open room Chacha wish you would have waited until I found it

 

[chacha]

Sorry, the second room was not well organized, I tried to set it up at the last minute. There were a couple of entries besides me but they quite 1/2 way through. I did wait until 5 minutes after the posted race start time.

If there's enough interest next race maybe bermudakid can post some info on exactly how to host another room so the procedure is the same for all rooms.

The 1 hour format is pretty fun. Tire management is crucial.

Happy Racing.

3rd Pre Season Race Complete - Results will be posted tonight
Great Race and a great turnout

Also all the Season tracks will be chosen tonight

And big thanks to my extra drivers / im going to allow some of you to take the place of some of the others who havent been to a single race.

Ill be posting info later tonight

 

[monoha]

Would like to get signed up for this. Still room?

 

[bombe32]

Good race we had tonight, very clean!

I'm slowly getting used to my G25 wheel so hopefully I'll be behind it next time we race - and then I won't lose so much time in sections like the Schumacher S today...

Maverick and Tony reminded me.. I need some more practice.

And last thing: Bermuda, I hope that yu will replace the Nürburgring 24H to another version of it, because of the track-disappearing-bug - it happens almost everytime and it would suck if a race result was decided by something like that...

 

[Paginas1]

yes was a good race, i love that track, its the 1st time ive done well wit these cars, im finaly getting used to them....

had a few good battles with Ayrtonshu and even bombe, if i get time tomorrow i might take some photos....

 

[MC CAULEY]

Do that Paginas. Can a team consist of the two different 908s race cars. Paginas has the Mallmuet and I have the blue one. They're both the same spec.

 

[Furinkazen]

So can I enter? Or are the entries full?

 

[Paginas1]

Heres my race report with photos ENJOY:

I didnt get any photos of the parade lap as it was a disaster, no1 knew where they were meant to be lol but never mind

Lap 2 (flying lap), a photo of the leaders coming into the 1st corner

1st corner - Ayrtonshu going very wide and into the sand pit!

The Schumacher S - Someone going wide not sure who

Lap 3 1st Corner - Senna and Razor (787) making mistakes and spinning

Lap 4 - Ayrtonshu knocking me onto grass (dont think he saw me)

Lap 6 - Bombe going wide at turn 1

Lap 7 - Last Corner showing how close me and ayrtonShu are (it was like this most of race lol)

Lap 8 - I finally make a move to overtake AyrtonShu

Lap 9 - showing how close me and Ayrton are (Side by Side)

Lap 9 - I am defending the line

Lap 9 at the chincane - Ayrtonshu makes a move on the inside

Lap 9 - Last corner - Ayrton goes into the pits while i decide to stay out for 1 more lap in clean air

Lap 10 - My tyres wont hold making me slide around.

Lap 11 - In the pits. COME ON PIT CREW

Lap 11 - Still in the pits with the fuel still going in, AyrtonShu flys past!!!

Lap 11 turn 5/6 - Bermuda makes a big mistake, while me and bombe in the background

Lap 13 - Bombe chaseing me down

Lap 14 - I go wide which lets bombe take 4th place

Lap 14 at the chicane - Im eager to get 4th place back, bombe tries to defend but i stick to the racing line.

Lap 15 - Backmarker (i think Mikethehockeyfan) gets out the way, just hitting the grass lol

Lap 17 - AyrntonShu makes a Masive mistake which he ends up into the wall

Lap 17 - He reverses onto the RACING LINE

Lap 17 - BANG i try to move out of the way but it didnt work. I would give a 25 Second Penalty for AyrtonShu for that move, i was very angry!!

Lap 20 - Tony with frash tyres regains 2nd place

Lap 21 - I come out of pits ahead of AyrtonShu

Lap 21 1st corner - I had cold tyres and go slightly wide to let AyrtonShu through

Lap 22 - AyrtonShu took defensive line and then pushed back onto racing line making me go onto the grass.

Lap 22 - Resulting me to slide (NOT HAPPY AGAIN) i would also give a 5 or 10 second penalty to AyrtonShu

Lap 24 - I retake 3rd place on the inside line.

Lap 28 - I spin and my tyres are worn!!! it could be all over

Lap 29 - Arnytonshu in background after my last and final pitstop IM AHEAD!!!

[bermudakid]

i am interested i will take place in your league and my teammate is - KingAli1

Stay away, Excistor...

Of course I'm in, Bermuda...

May be off the subject, but be careful of this guy. He was on my friends list and we were racing and just out of nowhere started driving backwards on the track wrecking everyone. Trial mountain 25 laps 8 or 9 laps in I had to quit leading the race to boot him. You doing a race longer then we did and you might have the same problem. Idk just saying he won't be racing with me or my crew anymore.

C'mon Excistor... just because you removed the PSN from your info I can still remember your username in here...

Ghova / Excistor / GTP_Racing

You have got a bad rap going around, i though you have been fine in the races but ive had 3 people complain about you driving around in other races/series backwards and such. I am going to remove you from my series ahead of time. Sorry

 

[Furinkazen]

I am interested. Count me in...

 

[bermudakid]

Here are season 1 Tracks
4 Races
SEASON 1 TRACKS
1. La Sarthe 2005
2. Fuji GT
3. Suzuka
4. La Sarthe 2009 - (Weather / Time change) < be prepared it case it rains cuz it always rains @ Le Mans

 

[Furinkazen]

No Nurburgring?

 

[bermudakid]

No Nurburgring?

Not in this season. I'm keeping the seasons short to make things more competitive. Also the Ring 24 version has a bad glitch where the track disappears while you are driving on it and it doesn't correct itself. I've had it happen to me a few times and others as well.

Theres a guy wanting to do a 100 lap race at the Ring 24 and i tried to explain to him the glitch is going to ruin a race that runs for 10+ hours and he said Good drivers should not quit if this happens to them. So when he runs his 100 lap race i'm pretty sure no one is going to finish.

Season 2 will have different tracks that Season 1 did not have excluding La Sarthe.
