Hey guys,

I no longer have internet until next thursday, so unfortunately we'll have to postpone this weekends race. Everything will just be pushed back one week.

Sorry if this creates any problems, this was sprung on me this morning. :indiff:

Sorry to hear your internet is down.

Not that it will probably make much difference, but that will give me more time to practice, get the seasonal events done and round 4 of GTA.

Great, now I can make it next week. 👍

Why don't you have internet?
 
Awesome, the weather is way to nice here anyway. I look forward to next weekend then!
 
that's a fat pipe, you one of the 18million lucky bastards in a FiOS neighborhood?

Why couldn't that have happened last week?! I'll be missing the race once again. Can't miss the Coke 600. I guess I should have payed more attention to the schedule before I signed for a full time spot.

No idea. And I'm a little ways out of the city too. This is also a DSL service.

Edit: sorry Jay, not my fault.

If it's Verizon it may be FIOS. That's they're maniac fiber optic high-speed replacement for ADSL. Every suburb around Buffalo has it but the bastards refused to wire the city because brown people live here.
 
Whew! Haven't even run a lap yet, so this goes in my favor. :)

Maybe we can throw down some laps later on or during the week. I'll post up a room when I'm on.


He did say fiber optic, but it's Century Link. (Qwest)

I use these guys. I had one problem. We have everything from them. Sat, Internet, phone. Here the thing we signed for a certain speed. Was getting 12-15mb. What they didn't say was it would be shared with the satellite/dvr. Any program recorded was sent through the network to other boxes in the house. Also they say multiple rooms 1 box. What happens there is those room get the signal through wifi :(. cutting my bandwith for the ps3 to like 5-6mb) I kill all tv and wifi in the house while series racing.

Long story short I called back and said I wasn't getting what I paid for. Internet separate from tv. Not a combined slower rate. You put tv in te house it's work, I pay for a speed in Internet and its not there. They set it up on another line and now I'm good. 10-12. Punks

It almost has to be FIOS. DSL over copper can only hit 6Mbps. And that's usually only when the moon is in the seventh house and Jupiter aligns with Mars. Had DSL here for several years and Bellsouth never could deliver better than 1.4Mbps. Switched to cable back in '08.

Bellsouth, now AT&T, called asking what they could do to get me back. Threw the poor schmuck completely off script when I said "Bring me FIOS.". Had to say it 4 times.

Maybe we can throw down some laps later on or during the week. I'll post up a room when I'm on.

Mind if I join?

Ok. Seasonals done, GTA round 4 done. Time for some FMTC practice. Will post room when open.

Disregard. Watching MotoGP on Speed. May take a nap. Probably be on later. Grand Prix of France, 2 wheels, in the rain. Those boys are 🤬 nuts.

Actually with the tires those guys run in the rain, the grip is comparable when the bike is straight up, only when they are on he edge of the tire that the traction is a quite a bit less. Still a crazy amount of skill to ride a bike like that, in those conditions.

I will be getting home tomorrow night, going to be running a few laps if anyone is around.

Just got back from NOLA, which is a brand new motorsports park here in New Orleans(never heard of the place, but a pretty cool complex) Got to take the new BRZ around the track a few times, have to say, what a beautiful car. Does just about everything perfect, the best handling stock car I have ever driven.
 
I'll have a room up in about an hour and a half. Plan to do some practice for this and gate if any one wants some runs. I'll post the # when I do.
 
I'm going to refrain from practicing offline until my internet is back up at the end of the week.
 
Yea I don't know about offline either. Even using sp. hards Im not sure but maybe.


New room

Did one of you gentleman manage to do something to my car? I found almost an entire second somewhere. PB now at 1:25.656. Actually ran in the 25s 3 laps out of 10, in cockpit view no less.

Bdub, I hate you :) :cheers:. Been bustin my butt for an hour, to get those 25s and you come in and 2nd or 3rd practice lap you turn a 23. Think I turned a really low 25 while we were racing though.
