I myself, would have got in everyone's way if i had of stayed around and swam the rest of the laps, my apologies to velly and red, velly i cut the corner slightly after you went deep in brakes and just tapped your right rear, i backed off to let you gain the position only to be rear ended by red which then pushed me into you again which caused you to spin.

I tried to drive it out but i think my "no tune" style of racing just gives me no front end grip, and some massive rear end slide with very very little throttle application in third gear out of corners.

Hoping for a dry race next week !

Cheers to Oni, Jasr, and Cac for their efforts so far this season heading into the grand finale.

Hey Mr T, dont sweat it...I am sorry for the restart. I got onto the grass coming into the secont chicane and lost all braking, I was heading for the back end of Taital of got off the brakes and on the throttle to drive around him (and head for the wall) I hit the wall hard but luckly no damage. I thought I missed you T but sadly, I guess not :(

Race 2 I had a tank slapper going in the same chicane (now I know why thanks to Mr T lol) All that aside I really suggled last night, I was well off the pace in the opening 1/4 but found my way down the 2:06's in the end. I was pushing too hard.
Still, never gave up and kept on going...to be fair it was a hard race (but the season is not ment to be easy?? correct lol)

You did miss me in attempt 1 velly, i asked for a restart because of the glitch of me starting on pole, it hampered moon and the tier 2 guys get off the line smoothly having to turn around me. Because i was slow on the throttle due to being out of position i went from second to fourth. Then whilst typing rod pulled out to make a move and drove me two ways from sunday. Lol

ORS Season Eight - Round Seven
- Fastest Lap Reviews For Points -

Tier 3
Cac's lap of 2.03.022 on 23 is legal
(fast lap of the race and notable for being completed with engine and minor rear left suspension damage)

Tier 2
Jol's lap of 2.04.154 on 23 is legal

Tier 1
Rod's lap of 2.03.785 on 27 is legal
Also worth a mention was JTV's lap of 2.03.941 on 30
(completed with engine and major right front suspension damage).

Also worthy of mention was that we had six drivers complete full race distance within race time (if we discount Toiv's DC) plus JTV and Red just missing out on completing full race distance PLUS Moon also on lap 36 when we ran out of time. In addition Asuka and Vel where only a lap down on 35 and driving very well in the latter stages of the race.

Top effort by everyone in very trying conditions.

:cheers:

Despite finishing way down the back it was actually a very interesting race. I was most annoyed by the fact that during night because some guy who was lost kept knocking on my door so I had to pull into the pits on about lap 5 which is why u saw me parked there for about 3 minutes. Most annoying thing that I was actually not getting over run at the start of the race which is what I was expecting after my poor qualifying efforts.

I was pushing hard and eventually caught up to Moon and Velly. It was funny how Velly and I pitted around the same time at about lap 27. I was looking forward to a good final battle with him but unfortunately I didn't adjust for the cold tyres and I stuffed up about a million times and damaged my car and funnily enough I think velly did too.

Oh well let’s hope the final round at Spa is a bright and sunny one!

Glad you boys are excited for Season 9. I'll need a list of who's joining season 9 full time and any wildcards.
 
Superb graphical concept and execution Mr Chan. Looking forward to Spa next week and the beginning of another exciting chapter in the ORS! :)
 
Oni Mate! Season 9 is looking like another brilliant ORS setup. Fantastic work there. 👍

I'll certainly putting my name in the hat for another full time drive please.
 
At this stage, I can say I am full time.....hoping to continue giving you a hard time :P

On another note, we have another OzCoMo brother wishing to join next week's race and I would like to request your permission to do so... Saltan4 is his ID and he is one of our best drivers

Please, let me know if you are ok for him to join next week and I will make sure he get's all the info...guessing he would be on the Ferrari?

Cheers
 
I am up for next season....but would stay a wildcard due to high work loads till the end of Jan.

Will be great for pepper to join in, I think a T3 will will be a nice intro for him tho I am sure he will become a T2/T1 driver very quickly

Good to have you and the other OzCoMo boys on board for next season. i have no problem with Saltan4 joining next round. If he is one of your 'best' drivers and from what velly said would move through the ranks quickly then i'll put him in Tier 2 (Corvettes) for the finale at Spa.

Have him send me a friends request, set up his Corvette to ORS specs and read through the ORS rules and regulations on page 1 if you havent already given him the run down on them.
 
Full time for me to oni, no problem at this stage making it. Been a good season for me, lets hope for rain at spa :) just joking mrt. See ya all there

Haha. Based on my previous results in the wet, I'm hoping for monsoon type weather. :)

The forecast does look promising with wind and sleet predicted for 7pm Monday. :drool:
