Talentless knows logic.

Talentless Jackson knows football and baseball, too.

Talentless I just sent you my new qualifying lap, 6 tenths faster than my previous one, both are super fast.

Yeah, Im sorr i was like that - i know theres a lot of pressure, but it needed clearing up. Thank you for that - it just helps to make this one of the best challenges ever. I too have improved my time
 
Time is nearly up. Once it is 12:05 I'm starting.

My clock is about 2 minutes fast.

  1. just the 2 of us in the 1:17's then! :D Congrats Jayjitsu on that lap. i know how hard it was to break 1:17.9, I only did it fter id posted my final time, only once and it was still slower than yours. Biggest congrats. man.

    Re: car - I think I told you but I used the RUF RGT
 
I know, but I figure you guys can mention them this time.

I will be keeping an eye out now.

The other eye will be rolled around my fingers for a bit.

I must have the cars PM'd prior to the race entry times.

i will list those persons I need in a moment.
 
ruf
gvx
lotus
dan
vat
jay

spd6
viper_m


unknown
Zero

I did not keep the pm of old times, zero. if the car was mentioned there, i apologize for not noticing.

do racers have to use the same cars for the race?

Ha! I wasn't worried - I think my response was 'well, duh...'

;)
 
Well whaddya know!

Congrats to you too, Dan! Unlucky to not get 1st...I almost gave up when I had a 1'17.9xx.

It took me quite a while to improve from a 1'18.4xx, but when I did I knew there was a 1'17.7xx waiting for me if I could "ring my three bells" ;) :cool:

GVX - I thought you'd place way out in the lead following your show on Time Attack 10 with the same car.

I'm sure the race will be a different story...

Nice Time Jayjitsu! Congratulations on taking poll. :thumbsup:

Frustration and Beers were having a negative effect on my driving ability last night. I knew there was a mid 1:17 to be had but I kept on making stupid mistakes and in the end I just sacked it and posted my 1:18.124

I'll be better prepared for the race hopefully and will try and stay off the beers until I have a competetive time.

Good luck everyone for the race. ;)
 
is it vital that all laps and pits be listed, because dan's are not?

send in the race times today, folks

7:00 am here
 
I was running a yellow Ruf RGT, i guess I forgot to tell you that, and i did improve my time and got into the 1:17.9's last night but i wasnt able to get onto a comp be4 midnight, congrats to Jayjitsu.

@Talentless: You must use the same car as qualifyied with, like if you did your qual time with a ruf you use the ruf for the race, same with the Tuscan.

Well if (big if) dan's time is false, which it is probably not, we will need the times so we can verify that his time is acheiveable. Pits do not have to be listed since we can determine when someone pitted by the 2 laps that are the slowest, besides the first lap.

Good luck to everyone, I have a real steamer of a time, did a 1:18.0XX in my new best race time. A couple of um :eek:
 
any time later than 12:05 am my time will be discareded the time is 10:38 am on my computer's clock
 
Sorry Talentless, I understood that race times were to be submitted by midnight (EST) tomorrow night.

It seems that midnight has been interpreted differently - I think Zero originally meant that midnight on Friday should be Friday night, and not Friday morning!

There's no way I can get a time in tonight.

So which is it Zero?
 
i think you guys are right. I thought he meant after friday starts, guess he meant saturday.

right, now im even more pissed off. Firstly, I do not want to do that again because i think that each lap was pretty good (normally i **** up at least one. Also this is the second time ive had to type this as my internet connection just disappeared as i finished it the 1st time! :mad:
Put it this way; I had one pit stop. Lap 6 was a 1:30.0XX (i know that because 1:29.999 was my target out-lap time and i just missed). I think i had a 1:27 on lap 5. I had i think 3 1:18 times, all around the high end though and the rest i really cant remember.

Anyway, how would all lap times proove anything. it would be just as easy to make up 10 fake lap times as 1 and then add them all up. If we couldnt rely on trust then this part of the site wouldn't exist. If you want to DQ me then you can, but i hope that we have not dropped to that level. :(
 
crud, i just realised that i gave out about 5 of my laps there for evry1 else to use as reference.

By the way, i think youll find that after all this at least one of you will get close to my time or most probably beat it so i hope that that's proof in itself

Midnight Friday means: 12am friday night like 12:01 is saturday morning.

Dan sorry to piss you off mate, I'm not gonna DQ you dan, there is no need to, it just that I, personally, like seeing lap times because I can compare mine to everyone elses. Big sorry on my part. Total Times will be final as of right now.

don't worry about it. I don't mind taking them down in the future, but i needed to know before the race...
Anyway, the series seems to be going well and i think as we do more of the races, the rules will become clearer.
By the way are you gonna do this for other tracks too, after this one (or should i say, think about doing....) as i know u have a soft spot for Deep Forest after your big victory.... ;)
 
Well if the series wasnt named "Midfield Race Series" than I would want the series to visit more tracks, but this comp is strictly for Midfield I and Midfield II. Maybe I will make a series that visits more tracks after this, but I wont compete in it.
