Edit: New discussion up in the DCRL group.

You weren't showing as in the race! Where did you finish?

 

[Phouchg]

I would have had you both if I hadn't run wide.

And thanks. I probably wouldn't have got you really but it might have been a 3 way battle for 3rd.

Great pics, mind if I post some too?

Thanks. The more the better! 👍

Nice ones, especially those of me and that random mechanic

Dax where did you finish?
You weren't showing in the list at the side.

Thanks.

I was in 1st at one point (Last to 1st) lost a bit of time on my pit out lap and carracerptp got infront of me. Fought him for a while, made a mistake and slipped down to 5th with a spin.

Well apparently I finished 5th too.

 

[Carbonox]

Dax was 6th.

 

[FordMKIVJ5]

Dax was 6th.

Phew. He just wasn't appearing on anything on my screen. I didn't think he'd be ahead of me as I wasn't far behind you and Phouch.

 

[Carbonox]

It was a pretty clean difference too, marunda was 17.6 secs behind the leader, Eclat was 29.4 behind

PWNT.

 

[DaxCobra]

But like I said, I had a pretty big gap on everyone despite the fact I started last. Shame I spun, really.

You could have come and taken carbon out so that i could cruise to 3rd ^^

Like, on a date?

That's... really extreme.

 

[DaxCobra]

Carb wouldn't accept, would probably get his Penguin to flap at Marunda and Carb would have taken the place anyway.

 

[Carbonox]

My interest towards this series has now suddenly gone up when I found out that my poor performances didn't only come because of my crappiness

 

[Phouchg]

I wish i would have shown some more interest in the beginning, missing the four first races doesn't do good for the stats.

 

[carracerptp]

I just found out I broke my old record for comebacks.
I was last and 13 seconds back, out of everyones draft, starting lap 2.

Here are some pictures

The pic of Max shows up twice (though not in a row)

Anyway cool pics, I got to see my Orange Lightning a lot

Yea, I saw that just as I clicked "Post reply"

 

[Carbonox]

I really like looking at the grid, it has pretty much all basic colors (except pink )

 

[FordMKIVJ5]

Nice pics Carracer! Just a tip; some of the photos seem a little over exposed (the ones where it's sunny), if you took the exposure down a tad they'd be brilliant. 👍

1st time I beat Dax all season. Bar Spa obviously.

Also for me it was the first time I beat Higher_place... oops, this was actually his debut

 

[Phouchg]

More pictures i like pictures!! I've noticed that some haven't bothered to change their race number. Looks a bit silly with all those number 1's ^^

Err, I went through everyone's number in the replay and I'm pretty sure there was only one #1, and no others were duplicates either You looked like you had the same number as me though, but didn't... ^^

BTW, if we return to the Elise's, could we make a rule that only the reigning champion can use #1? It strongly looks like it'll be Eclat, as he has 118 points against neljack's 96, but I guess it'll add realism to the series. Of course if the champ wants, he can go Rossi/Simoncelli (RIP) style and keep their current number.

Thanks for the tip, I have always been a fan of "slightly" over exposed images....

Pfft, I've had better, 20-ish seconds back and made the comeback, same track, only problem is I also got hit a couple more times, so I made twice the turn-around of everyone!

I have come back from a 30 second deficit to win a race with a clear difference. Well, it was after I had made a pitstop...

Kind of fascinating how both the races I have so far hosted have been in Eclat's series at Suzuka, eh?
