THIS MUST BE A NEW RECORD!

First race and first race or serie ban for a driver... :cheers:

Whoever it was here:



I'm sure we all can make without such driving in this serie and on AC... It's really great to be forced to pit for over 1 minute and half on lap 1 of a 22 laps race. Sadly i can't see the driver's name so any help would be appreciated.

And what is the best is that whoever it was didn't even bother apologizing. I was a fool thinking that people on AC would take racing seriously.

Guys from now on let's look at the driving standards.
 
Sorry to Mec_pc in race 2, you was lagging back and forth down the main straight wasn't sure how far along I was going into turn 1 and out broke myself, we touched. Sorry for that. My mistake.

Same with Don, I'm sorry about the contact, I had half a cars width along side you going into the final chicane but didn't think you saw me, sorry for the contact. waited and let you go and then got a 10 second penalty twice... stupid system lol

Evidence 1:14.10 and 1:19.10

It also ruins the racing, I tried overtake but overshot it and went off track all while on the brakes so I lost time anyway then get a 10 second penalty which completely ruined any chance of winning the race at that point.
If go go off track and am on the brakes it shouldn't be a penalty unless you never braked while off track or used throttle to cut across.
No big deal for me today it went well but I understand the frustration of this stupid penalty system that ruins racing.
What happened to poor bajny is a worse example of it or better example of how bad it is.

That was me, dodging the car that came back on track in front of me, didn't relize I had hit you that hard and caused you to go into the wall so sorry about that.
But I had no where to go as the came back on track in front of me, if you ban me that's fine 👍.
 
The whole within 1.5 seconds of each other

The yellow car is hasslemoff but he has to move to the right because I (Don-Mejillone) entering the track after the crash in front of me so it's not his folt i think.

If you want to stick around, it'll be your one chance to redeem. Avoid contacts at all costs.

There's not just throttle you know mate... you can slow down, lift or (OMG!?) brake to avoid danger or contacts. If you look at my replay i posted you can see how easy is to not go all out flat at all times to avoid danger.

Could have made up for great racing. But we saw something else tonight.

Mark, you may have been easily more careful. First case was a mistake, but the second one had no way to be an accomplished overtake. You could have passed him on the straight just 20 seconds later.

I want you drivers to think more carefully about your attempts. The one overtaking must make it so the crash risks are as close to zero as possible.

Also i think you should change your FOV; it'll make it so you'll judge better space and braking points.


Damn the test race went so smoothly i would have never expected such bad driving on the first race >_<

You had the pace over me bud you should have been more patient and the win was yours.
 
@azidahaka you can see that @hasslemoff didn't do that on purpose, he had to move out of the way, i know his driving from GTP WRS and i am sure he is a clean and fair driver.

I'll trust you on this since we race along since ages, but @Don Mejillone 's car could be seen from afar rejoining and it was doing it so slowly.

It may be that my own view on the thing is skewed by the fact that hours of training and effort were wasted like that (and my time is very limited; almost as my own driving and tuning skills so i have to get the most out of "situations"), but i do not think hasslemoff even bothered lifting off or braking to avoid the situation that as you can see in the replay allowed seconds to react if one had the wish to play it safe. It looks to me that the only thing on his mind was taking as much positions as possible in one lap.

I'll watch it again when i won't be so madly pissed off tomorrow. But race quitting and not even considering an apology are stuff i do not take lightly for they means "i do not care at all of this" in my opinion.

Man it's not easy to go on when you get a 90 seconds penalty at first lap and you have to race alone for 21 laps... I regret i didn't manage to catch @BigDaddyP last lap lol i went like mad in hope to catch up with the group but was no use.
 
While I didn't take anyone out, I'm not helping with the driving standards, as it seems I'm not able to control my car. I need to back off the setup and just put a lot more work into being consistent lap after lap before I come back to the series. While it sucks that I'm not finishing well despite good qualifying and decent starts, I'm far more concerned about the fact that I'm always losing control while someone's right behind me, putting them at risk too. Thank you guys for doing a good job of avoiding me.

Did you spin while putting on the power?
 
Did you spin while putting on the power?
No, the car's just really twitchy and if you overdo any of the steering input, it's tough to catch. I spun plenty of times today both on and off power, and I think I need to fully rework the suspension and dampers before I can start to make serious progress.
 
The day after...
I think everyone who participates likes a clean race, Let's all do our best and Let's make it happen next race !
Thank you guys for racing and Karsten thank you for your effort you put in.

We are all close and lets hope and do our best for a clean one the next time, I think we all want it !
:gtpflag:

Keep chipping away at the setup! I was having awful trouble wit throttle and lift off oversteer and kept making changes one at a time and if they didn't work changed them back. Car is unbelievably stable now don't even need tc.

You are welcome to stay, if you want to join I'll be training today. I'm not good at making a fast setup but my setups are always really drivable so if you want I can try and help you. Also make sure to aim for a drivable setup and test it for many laps not just hotlapping.

If anyone else wishes to join just let me know.

Since I'm about 8 hours behind you Karsten ('Murrica), I'll probably still be at work while you're hosting the session. But I'll be doing a good test session after I get home.
 
I might join tonight, need to learn Imola.
If you see me come on send me an invite please.

I can probably join for a training session. Please send me a invite.👍
