Due to a foot injury my first race is in doubt using the wheel, i may have to race on Monday (if possible) with the DS3 again.
 
I bet these cars will be a handful on a DS3!

Good luck with that Mr T (sods law he will end up lapping me now i said that lol)
 
Hope all is good taits, get that foot sorted so you can continue to kick our arses.

The car is fine with a DS3, good old instant lock to lock helps with this wild beast haha.
 
Here are the details for round 1

I am pleased to annouce that Jol, Rod & I have formed a full strength Multi- Tier team in accordance with salary cap restrictions.

Currently deliberating on Team name, Team colors and Team song.

We should be alll sorted out by Race 1 qualifying!

Thats a great driver to pick up mate. Not only does jol have super quick setups but also easily one of the best drivers in the series when it comes to tyre wear.

With you, Rod and Jol as a team the rest of us a going to be running scared with the pace and tyre wear benchmarks being set by you 3.
 
Lol Rusty.. what happened to your supertech autobac? :P

Man if Rota wasnt fast enough already with you on his team he going to be T1 material now and Spin will be flying up the ranks. Going to be a tight championship.

But I do agree the championship is going to be tight.;)
Regarding my team 'HyperTech AutoSports', well it's obvious...'HyperTech' and Team Citrus have joined forces for Season 7.:dopey:

Just an update, many of you know of my dads medical problems, as he is now at home i am currently sleeping down stairs in case something happens during the night, as my wheel and console are in my bedroom this means that i am never near it. What does this mean for the championship? In the meantime i don't know if i can make the races each week but i will advise Oni of this on the night of each race - this is why i haven't been on at all recently
 
MrT , glad to hear he's back home. That's gotta be good for everyone hey. Best wishes to everyone there mate. See ya when we see ya. :)

Team Stealth certainly sound like a threat but after the weeks testing I think Citrus are ready for anything.

.......and roll ghetto vid..... !

 
Glad to hear your Dad's home Taits. Wishing him all the best for a speedy recovery.

Spin, Team Citrus video is awesome Lol! Really nicely done and appreciate the time and effort to get all those clips to mesh together. Top marks lads!!!

Just a quick mention/ reminder that the photo comp will be running again this series.

So you know to save Monday night's replay.

A post containing the photo comp regs is on page 1 of the thread.
 
After poor form last season and the sacking of their driver after a rather nasty argument with sponsors, something to do with parking the Subaru in the most inappropriate place. Team e-Coli has decided at this stage to run a one car team and enlist the help of part time test driver Mic Col who we hope will get to race this car at some stage.
Although there is very little chance of doing well in the team points, we are hoping to improve from last season with some good results.

Team e-Coli is also on the look out for other small privateers to join their low budget team to test and share their knowledge in the hope of giving some of the big budget factory teams a bit of a shake up.

Team e-Coli will be running black cars

NEWS UPDATE

we are pleased to announce the emergence of team solo to team e-Coli.
We will be running two cars with drivers evan1080 and jtv90069 at the wheel.

Oni, Our team is officially called "TEAM STEALTH" & we will be all running Dark Matte colors for the season. We will be flying under the radar :)

For the 1st race tonight we will be without our T1 Driver Joel. Also for the record, I'm struggling heaps with setting up my car and way off the pace. I will do my best to keep out of everybody's way.

Spinner, Really love the Team Citrus theme. LOL @ "Putting the squeeze on the opposition" & "Get some Fruit in Ya Boot".

The video is awesome work! Unfortunately Team Stealth have not been able to get on track together but I'm hoping to put a similar Team Video sometime soon.

Tait, i really wish your Dad get's well as soon as possible!

Looking forward to an epic 1st round of S7. Cheers ALL.
 
PS3 can't read game disc. That's me out for tonight. Have a good race guys , will be on for next round with a repaired / new console I believe.

How good is my timing ?

🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬
 
Oh no spin what a @#$%$#@&%?$#....@$%*%#!#%*?%$(...#$@@%$#@%.

Bloody technology, isn't it marvelous!
 
If it had have died yesterday , no problem . I would have replaced the console , did all the data transfer ready for tonight. That's the most frustrating part. I only found out at 6pm tonight that..... she dead. :/
 
Spin, you will be glad to know rusty won and his winning message was "this one is for you spin!" hahahaha :D

Also i dedicated my Q1 time to your disc laser. RIP
 
Hahaha , brilliant ! Thanks Rusty and Rota :) Sounds like another display of domination by the R* went down. Great job fellas !

Gutting Spin, get on ebay now and order a new laser. the are easy to fit. did mine in a hour



Last night race...
I did little testing, I was just going in at the deep end. I got to the room late dude to my son being ill. I was happy to start from the back. RH was the rubber and just stay out of trouble....well that didnt work lol I had a few spins and off...by lap 5 I was 3/4 of a lap behind the leader and 1/2 a lap behind the nearest person to me :(
Set off on RM, killed them within 5 laps! (not good) so changed again...this time got 8 laps before my time was dropping to the 2:00 mark. ran like this through the race. Did one session on RS, banged out 1:54's untill i spun on my 4th lap :(
Had fun at the end mixing with the leaders. Me on new tyres and them on warn.

A great race, looking forward to the next one.

Hey Guys,

First of all I wanted to say what a great experience this has been for me! Thank you for a great night of racing! Had some good fights with a couple of people, all very clean and good fights :)

I was pretty happy with my performance until the final few laps....I found myself in a great position with new tyres (soft) following Cactass and Oni who looked like were struggling with tyres or saving them at least.

Got to Cactass at the final chicane and got too excited and lost under acceleration, in an attempt to overtake going into the final corner :(

Came back to the track and started chasing him down again, closed the gap to throw all away again on another stupid overtake attempt!

At that stage, the tyres were far from new....so to finish any chances I could still have, I spun again on the hairpin :( After that I had 0% tyres at the rear...yes....I did it...

I compare this with one with when you have one of those good dreams.....you are there with Scarlet Johansson and a few others ready to have them all when you suddenly realise "man, this is a dream!" and the moment you do that, you wake up! So, that is what happened to me....I woke up! lol I guess the chance of getting to the podium on my first ORS race was too much to bare....need to look at the positive side now, I took it out of the system! Yes...that is right! Look out Rusty...I am coming to get you! hahahahaha....that is funny

Going back to having 0% tyres left, I wanted to put my hands up here....because of that, I decided to go back to the pits to put new tyres so I could at least drive around the track. Came back to the track and made sure I didn't overtake anyone, it wouldn't be right or fair if I did it.Now, I know this is against the rules as the pits were closed, so not sure what happens now....please let me know and I will be happy to take the hit.

Well, that is it for now! Again, thank you all and congratulations to Rusty on a great victory and to everyone for putting together a great race.

Looking forward to the next one.

Cheers,

,

The pits are always open Rod, only changing from one compound to another (e.g. Hard to Soft) is not allowed in the first 5 laps and last 5 laps. You were fine as long as you stayed with the same compound.

And you were right. My tyres were barely going to make the finish, so there was nothing I could do to hold you off other than make you go the long way around. :sly:
