Practice results so far for London...


The right way round.


GEORDIE139...1:02.0xx
JAMESYBOGRAT...1:02.1xx
RICHYBOY2MIL...1:02.2xx
ADE3210...1:02.5xx
DOWLIN39...1:03:5xx
WATERMELON...1:03.6xx
OMNIUS...1:03.8xx


The wrong way round.


JAMESYBOGRAT...1:01.4xx
GEORDIE139...1:01.6xx
RICHYBOY2MIL...1:02.6xx
ADE3210..1:03.0xx
OMNIUS...1:03.2xx
DOWLIN39...1:03:6xx


Edit, Watermelon is right, the lap times posted are hot lap times, the race pace will be slower.
Also, when I open the room tomorrow, it will be set on London reverse. When everyone is in I will change it to London (the right way). This is to stop the qualifying glitch that puts the room host on pole position.

 

[OmniusGT]

Thought I'd chuck my times into the mix...

---> 1:03.833 - London
<--- 1:03.286 - Nodnol

...jamesy, I think I've ballsed the setup you gave me HELP

 

[GTP_ADE]

Yes, I agree.

There's often a lot of suspicion people have before signing up with races.
I think most of us ask (quietly to ourselves)...

Will these people play fair? Is anyone in this race following rules... or are there any rules at all?

I was lucky when I set up The Sunday Cup, and Mini Madness, as I had a great group of racers who I had raced with in Core GT before. Mini Madness only was ever meant to be a one off whilst Core GT was on a break, but it proved to be popular, so I ran it again. This is the 3rd event, and there will probably be more. I know that everyone who has raced in Mini Madness/Core before are clean racers and follow the rules, and hopefully some of the new faces tonight will see that and may like to see what we do on Fridays in Core GT.👍



Not long to go until we bring London to a standstill. Has anyone done any last minute testing? With 15 on the grid so far, its going to be very busy, so be careful and keep it clean. Overtaking is going to be tricky, especially where the road narrows to a 1 car width coming out of the last turn before the start/finish line. I think that this part of the track will cause even more chaos when we run the reverse race.

 

[Cobani]

Ade, may I become number 15?

Did a quick test this afternoon and did a competive time.
(yes, but I won't say it was under 1:02 ...)
Definitely got lucky there ...

I really wanted to start from the pitlane to cause no trouble with all the regulars, but when i figured that was out of the window, I might as well go for a top 6 finish. (Okay, a podium is what I'm really after).
... Well Jamesy, I'll throw in the gauntlett, just for the fun of it! 👍

That is, if there's still room ...

This will either be a race to remember, or one that will kill your broadband!

How many synchronous connections?????

We managed 12 at The Sunday Cup, and that was OK, so hopefully we should be good, so I think "the race to remember" option.👍

I will open the room early (8.00pm) to allow plenty of time for everyone to get in.

 

[GT Flaw]

Looking forward to this one.With 15 on the grid it could be a challenge just to find a clean lap for qualifying.

Its going to be mad. Monaco had 8 racers, Madrid had 8, so if everyone turns up we are only 1 short of the first 2 races combined.

Will there be a new name on or 2 on the MINI MADNESS wall of fame after tonight???​

ARGH Don't say that! my nerves are already getting the better of me with my lap times

hopefully some of the new faces tonight will see that and may like to see what we do on Fridays in Core GT.

If it all goes ok and I don't come off as a complete dunce Core GT looks really awesome.

Dont worry, this race is only for fun, and with reverse grid for race 2, those who finish towards the back, will have a big advantage in the the reverse race. As for Core GT, why not come and join us on Friday for the club racing events in the Evora.

Yeah, I guess, I'm a little bit more comfortable now that I fixed my monitor and can use a wheel at least, even though that means more practice.

 

[GTP_ADE]

Less than an hour till the room opens. I am all excited.👍👍

 

[Dowlin39]

Got an hour of practice on each track today and cut my times down a lot. 1:01:816 the right way and 1:01:203 reverse. I'm super excited for this now . Please connection, don't be stupid tonight.

 

[OmniusGT]

Good racing lads!

Some good new racers out there! Looking forward to racing with you all again sometime soon 👍

 

[Strawman Andy]

Winning the 2nd race doesnt put me on the frame wall does it?

LOL Exactly as advertised! LOL

Beware driving into poofs of smoke in narrow corridors... you never know who, or how, you might meet!

Someone was disliking the reverse track even more than I!


Looking forward to Rome.

Cheers, I am pleased you enjoyed it.👍👍 The next Mini Madness will be in four weeks time. I will update the OP later today with the info. If you cant wait that long, why not sign up for CORE GT. We race every week on Fridays, and you will see that quite a few from last nights race take part. Season 3 has only really just started, and we all race clean and fair. The link is in my sig.
