It's slower, so it should be counted clean in this case.

But there's no precedent in the rules for this either, so it's kind of up in the air.

Something probably needs writing into the rules, especially as we have Monaco coming up.
I am of the opinion that a touch on an outside wall during qualifying would be classed as a small off (0.5%).
Although at the moment this isn't a written rule. I have read through the GTP OLR rules and this is what is says;

Colliding with or using walls, fences or other obstacle is forbidden, whether time is gained or not. All times submitted must be 100% wall free unless otherwise stated in the Race Specifics section of any given event (multiple lap races where allowances are made for errors).

 

[Wardez]

Well, can't go dicing in rules when incidents come up. I understand you're just relaying that info. for reference of course though. I think that since the wall was just so insignificant to speed or line and is only slower, it should be let through for this round, although it would be a different story if there's contention in any one else's laps involving wall banging. We can set concrete rules after this round ends.

 

[Ealirendur]

Except as far as I can tell from his replay, there was no contact ;-)

Of course, I am not trying trying to backdate any rules etc, I am just looking at ways of clearing up any confusion in future events.

It's clear that a rule similar to the one above needs writing into the rules. As no rule is in place and any touch, if there was one, was minimal, on this occasion the benefit of any doubt should go with the driver.

[twistedfirework]

That's the deadline reached. Anyone still qualifying Rich?

 

[Wardez]

No one else in the room.

But, forget Yosai team this week, look at Amemiya - STACKED!

 

[twistedfirework]

As far as I know, dranzer and stretch will be running a q with a penalty.

 

[Wardez]

Looks like you made D1 again Dave, congrat's.

Thanks, I am a little shocked!!

 

[SkengD]

Thanks, I am a little shocked!!

Practice makes perfect !!!

 

[dranzer19]

Yeah. I was in my lounge practicing. Then came out to try to get a qualifying room and couldnt even get to the main menu. In fact i reset the ps3 and couldnt even get to gt life!! Oh well ill still qualify after i get back from work. Thx for the help tho

It was down only for ppl that leave their room, if you ot caught in maintenence inside a room, didnt cause any issues.

 

[twistedfirework]

I will add you to the back of the grid for now. When you run your qualifier, it will replace it.

 

[PhaedrusSocrate]

I'll try Q with penalty this time
Bur I MUST ask for team switch... I know there aren't any openings in team Celica, so I'll have to "go privateer", that's fine by me 👍
She was my first choice and even was designated to me at the start

I really did try to get to terms with Altezza but couldn't get even close. I can feel Celica, feels like race car, Altezza feels like... bit less, for me.

Would prefer to run late as possible, but I'll open room already at 17h UTC in case stewards can't cut it that late

 

[Dr_Watson]

Except as far as I can tell from his replay, there was no contact ;-)

you don't get the "crunch" sound effect? With wall brushes I usually go with what the audio says rather than the visual inspection. (standard car models and all).

 

[PhaedrusSocrate]

I'll skip this week 👍
I need to sort out my driving contract first


as I can tell, it WONT change number of drivers in d1

 

[CodeRedR51]

If I'm in D2 this week I'm just going to skip it and hope for a better run next week.

 

[Dr_Watson]

actually it would... no you and no jason puts me on D2 pole rather than the last car in D1.


---------- In other news.

rosckolove asked me for a second opinion on his lap.
Unfortunately it is dirty. 4-off exiting turn 2.

This is what I saw in the rear view during our ten lapper:

Yeah, I was dropping the expected (given our practice laps) 0.5 through the s2 and s3 tunnels. But easily got it all back in the tractor beam every lap.
Before we went into the turn1 bend I was actually bouncing my 6th gear... and it's set to 166 mph.

 

[PhaedrusSocrate]

Well I was correct! Jasno pulled out AFTER

OK, I can make a "cameo", cuz I LUV U Tim

If you drive the altezza one last week (for the team points) I'm sure eddie will love you as much as me.

BTW, I expect we'll replace you on Altezza by correcting our mistake and moving gooners to that seat. (I have a perfect 'team car' to give. It's the blue accented car to compliment the red one Eddie is driving).
The celica is pretty full (unless koleen's internet is still flakey or Skeng wanted to give you that chair and go to the '08 Arta), have you tried the ARTA '08? We could just do a direct swap between you and Gooners.

I saw it and heard it.The strange thing is the speed increases from 78 to 90 mph in less than .1 sec.Thats some serious VTEC yo.

when vtec kicks in yo he gets access to the Fast and Furious shifter.

 

[Sail IC]

Be a tough race for me tonight. Got a terrible sour throat with fever. Haven't been able to get and solid food down today.

Forunately its an indoor sport

 

[SkengD]

Ill keep the Celica since I got Tony as teammate now

 

[PhaedrusSocrate]

I can survive without teammate, have no problem with going private!

I just want my car back, buuhuu

Anyway, don't REGULATIONS allow for ONE free change, wthout any catches?


edit: No, they don't

I may end up going privateer also. I'm down to 56's in the arta with about 15 laps. 50 laps in the spoon gave me 57.9's, only twice. What is the penalty for a car switch? Besides losing your Q position?

 

[Litchi]

Hi guys, unfortunately (or fortunately, not sure yet), i won't be able to race tonight cause i have a party with friends. Sorry to let you know this very late but my spanish roommate just told me about this party...

 

[twistedfirework]

We will look into car swaps after the race. For this week , everyone stick to their original car. Some drivers will be heading for the reserve list so by Tuesday a list of available cars will be up.

For the hosting duties this week.
Div 1 : owensracing
Div 2: MULE ??


Ok Will, thanks for the heads up, I will remove you from the q list.

Anyone else intend to race who hasn't qualified or anyone else unable to race.

 

[xStretch-]

Hey,

Whens the deadline for Q? Just woke up so I hope I'm not late
