[PS4] BMW M3 GT3 Trophy Season 1 CLOSED DUE TO LACK OF DRIVERS.Finished

[ozwheels]

Maybe I'm just a bit moody, lots of things (all bad) are going on in RL and I really do my very very best in organizing and racing...

I always dreamed of being a race driver but never had even money to run karts... So I try too hard in games I guess. Also I feel a bit sad of how little interest I managed to gather and how few people joined. Surely the drivers pool is very small but still...


Maybe I just ask too much to myself when racing or organizing... You know it's bad when your expectations crash either in organizing or racing

In any case there's no point in setting up a serie if no people will join or race. In that case I think I should just stop and maybe train for skaankys serie or cool offline.


I'm clueless about what makes me so slow, but even if lines are ok I alway drag seconds behind.

Must be braking or tune or just my inner slowness After all that is my usual place given my racing history of 2 wins in over 300 gtp official races

It's most likely your in your comfort zone and your not pushing to the limit. Just try driving the car over its limit then you know where the limit is. When I go to a new track or a new car I'm constantly crashing and getting track penalties. Because of that I know how hard I can push in those areas because I've already seen what happens when I push harder. Seriously I mean accelerate harder and carry more speed and you'll find time you didn't think was there.

You're not slow Azidahaka, in GT3 Euro I was on par with you at Imola, maybe quicker at Spa because I love this track but rest of the season I was way behind. There's always a quicker guy, that doesn't mean you're slow. Don't you ever race in public lobbies ? Ego boost guaranteed. 👍 (well if you make it to T1 )
And don't worry about trying too hard to race because you can't do it IRL, I feel the same and I bet we're not alone here !

It's most likely your in your comfort zone and your not pushing to the limit.

I know exactly that feeling, you realize it whenever you do something else like playing another sim for long enough or even better RL racing (even 8hp fun fair go karts ). It just brings your focus back to the essential when you come back "home".

Come on Karsten lets have some fun with those M3 .
Between the boem boem and bang bang lets have a race .

 

[azidahaka]

Phoewhieieie lucky no rain , should we put our helmet on for landmines ?

 

[David Talle]

My wheel and my PS4 are working perfectly fine so I confirm I'll be there tomorrow !
Any reference lap time ? So we, the rolling chicanes, can know about how far behind we will be ?

(Race is 8 GMT ?)

out / 20:00PM GMT/BST is to late for me, sorry. this means finishing around 2300 Brussels time...

 

[Zakspeed_TV]

Hi @azidahaka sorry but i think im gonna pull out, im just not gonna have the time with doing TTs and also want to start having a go at the network challenges. Hope all yall have a good series and sorry again.

 

[azidahaka]

Not at all.... You would finish race1 at 21:45 and race 2 before 22:30

 

[azidahaka]

Yay Great, didn't see this one too...

 

[David Talle]

Is it 20:00 GMT/UTC or BST then ??
That's 1h off ! BTW except our UK friends, we're mainly on the CET time zone, so let's sync our clocks because I'm getting confused.

I'm guessing it's 20:00 BST (19:00GMT/21:00CET) ?

David .... Karsten is from Italia so he got the same laptime like the france and the la Belgica , so lets presume Karsten take the time of England this means they are 1H behind us , what means it will be 19.00 laptimes for the Angleterre when Karsten starts the Pratication sessie and 20.00 for us but.... don't take that as a certainty because I could be totally wrong .
Anyway we are almost there I think

 

[azidahaka]

We start in 1h 30 mins.

Q sessions before race.

Yeah that's what I'm thinking too, but from March to October BST≠GMT, that's what is confusing.

(Nice new English/French/Spanish or Italian blended language BTW Just kidding)

 

[Riggy]

I get the feeling I'm going to be well down the pack on this one. Dubai Autodrome isn't my strongest track, not even close. 36.5 is my best so far :/

Also the penalties on this track continue to be a load of crap.

I'm sorry we were already in lap one when you pmed me... You didn't join for race 2 when i invited you. If you told me you were late we would have waited for you like we did for @Skaankypuppy in race 2... we waited for him for 20 mins since he did tell us...
