Feel more sorry for Cac and oni, oni went in to hot into pit lane and was penalised, he went in 500m ahead of me but ended up 20m behind me haha, and poor cac had a big crash with the pit entry barrier haha.

I had the same thing on both my pitstops, Wilco caight up a good few hundred metres on me in the pits. Having done no practice I didn't know you could go in too hot :scared:

That's what also closed the gap between us, I did a bit of testing and noticed it thankfully haha
 
Is it all over already? :nervous:

Pass complete with no damage depsite the distance he came from

After the pit stops mike got damage, after sitting behind him patiently for 2 laps i finally make my move at the end of the main straight

ClubmanStageRoute5_3.jpg

On the last lap, i encounter lapped traffic *scared*

ClubmanStageRoute5_2.jpg

Knowing Mike is not far behind i have to make a bold pass on Stape to put him a lap down

ClubmanStageRoute5_1.jpg

Clean pass and no harm done, on to the chequered!

To celebrate i light my rear wheels up heading onto the main straight

What bold pass mr t I saw you comming and moved over

Now that i'm away from work i can respond properly, i posted those photo's during lunch and just added in random comments between bites of my lunch, during the time i seen it as a big moment in the race for me as it was the last lap and last few corners, i drive on the bumper cam so i had no idea where you were as i just had to commit to the corner lol

Well come race day, i will be turning off my wireless signal, and just running cable, and also turning off firewall, even though DMZ should be avoiding that(i'm guessing). I think i have incompatibility with cactass, as he wasn't there for the first race.

But you did have problems before starting tho, you still got kicked during quali, and cac wasn't there last series lol

I know, but the first race of this series. Last series yes i did have problems, but the first race of this one and 3 last races of last series i was able to race.
 
Hey Taital/whoever updates the points table, I got the fastest lap in race 1 with a 0:50.612.

Unless we're only counting the fastest lap of the whole event, which I think would be your lap Taital.

Bit disappointed with that being my best lap, I was pulling 0:49.xxx's just before the qualification.

Hey mate, thanks for doing that for me I've been very busy with low staff at work lately and both fastest laps are awarded, from r1 and r2. I'll update it tonight

No problem man.

Worth a mention also is that Evan came ridiculously close to that lap time, with mine only being a few thousandths of a second quicker. 👍

Like quali, ev was .007 faster then Jol, who was .008 faster then me, then you and i both hit the 59.4s lol
 
Round 4 - Circuit De La Sarthe

Laps - 20

Please note
that 20 laps will run to almost 1hr 30minutes. I was thinking to have a nice long race for this event using the 24hr day/night. Let me know if people want the race reduced to the usual 1hr duration.
 
20 laps ,sweet but will be very hard for the stewards,maybe weak penalties might be in order to keep us all honest

The reason we don't really run them is due to the inconsistency and inaccuracies of them. I have put the idea to oni and jasr but I'm waiting to hear back
 
Called my Internet service provider, they port forwarded my the connection straight to my PS3.....again. Bought a new ethernet cable. I'll turn off wireless completely.
I also found a program to "overclock" your router.

So, if it doesn't work this monday, i'm out for this series, and any other series for that matter.
I still can't get my head around, why?, after doing everything i did last series, and got it working for the last 3 races, and race 1of this series, everything suddenly has gone to the dogs.

Lets hope everything you have done will fix the problem. Wouldn't want to lose Mr Persistent from the series.
________________________________________________________________

To all those that have asked about running weak penalties for this race. Your concerns have been thought about and addressed. We will continue racing as normal without penalties. We are all good enough and clean enough to not cut intentionally. The first 3 rounds have proven this hence i don't feel the need to apply it.

If you do cut then make sure you let off the gas to lose any time you may have gained. If you gained a position from the cut then yield the position back to the other driver.

I do understand that when the sun goes down it will be harder to see where corners are but that's the excitement of night racing.
 
Just for a bit of Saturday-arvo fun.

Some of you might remember the now famous RUF promo video called "Fascination on the Nurburgring". If you haven't seen, it was Stefan Roser in 1987 in a 460bhp monster. No cage, no helmet, no aids, just pure skill
and really big b.... There's a few versions getting around, check it out here if you haven't seen it before.

Anyways, this is GTP Member OK8 on comfort hards in the same car (stock) in GT5, at the Ring. I liked this one cause he's got the camera on the wheel. Great car control, worth a look.



Couple of good vids in his thread here.

Cheers,
Jas
