Anyone getting a room up for the last 3 and a bit hours of qualifing, I waned to go last night but just didn't feel like playing Gt5 .

 

[Twissy]

Just looked at the calender, what on earth is the Huscan autodrome? I assume it's from the track creator?

 

[paulmac2k9]

Yes Biffy made it .

 

[Litchi]

Qualifying deadline is in 1h20... (17GMT)
You can still qualify until 19GMT but a 2% penalty will be added to your Q time.

@Biffy: I think you should post the Race infos asap man

Round 2 - Laguna Seca - 43 Laps​

You are all expected to stay as clean as possible in reference to the rules in the OP and the OLR. Laguna Seca is one of those tracks where it is actually more of a challenge to go dirty than keep it clean, aside from the obvious corner cuts, so there are no pictures this time round.

Despite what it may say in the OP, there will be no formation laps this season. There is simply no need

Round 2 Qualifying Results

Final Grid TBA.​

If you want to race but haven't qualified or don't intend to in the next hour, please post here your intention to race. You will only be able to race if there are spots available, and any available spots will be first post, first serve.

Have a good race guys!

 

[Green]

I would like to start at the back please 👍

[Müle]

This is why I hate heavy damage. especially when I was dumb and didn't know it was on.

Sorry about that, Paul. clearly I made a mistake by racing today.

 

[Paginas1]

Great race last night.

Didn't expect 2nd after first pit stop as I made mistake going into corckscrew causing damage and loss of time.
But ended well even though biffy had me scared on the last lap lol

 

[paulmac2k9]

Next race Toyko . With these understeery things and heavy damage could get interesting .

Laguna my arch nemisis stuck me down with vengance after my success in Integras.... 4 pit stops (2 for damage) when I had intended to see if a 1 stop would work .

 

[Third Reign]

I'll announce that I wont be able to qualify for the next race. My participation is also a bit questionable because I'm returning from a short trip to France on Monday. Its about 9Hr drive, so I don't know if I'll have the nerves to race on that evening. So count me in on the race slots, but don't wait for me.

 

[Green]

Pleasantly surprized with my 4th place finish last night, didn't have great pace but I was pretty consistant and my 2 stop pit worked well. I was most happy about managing to hold off litchi after I got damage near the end one more lap and I would have been an easy target for him. Also not getting lapped by twissy was a bonus , anyway see you in Japan

 

[paulmac2k9]

Green just so you know Litchi had damage after hitting me in T1 in the last 7 laps or so.

[Green]

Oh you where still catching me lol, horrible track to have damage ( not that there's a good track to have damage) my tires just started melting away .

 

[Twissy]

Well just did a quick few laps round to Tokyo, I think this one could be a matter of survival, slightest touch of a wall, gonna have to pit lol

 

[Biffy]

Just a quick note: There are quite a few people who didn't show up to R2 (and R1 for that matter) without notifying me. Some haven't posted in here atall. If you plan to race/not race next week and have missed the last 1 or 2 races, I'd say so now otherwise there is a good chance you will be removed from the sign-up list.

 

[Denilson]

Biffy, I'm sorry if you expected me to state my absence this week.. And as you saw, last Monday, we had a very rear power outage that kept me off the internet.. Got the power back when I woke up on Tuesday morning..

But this week, I'm going to race!! 👍
Not sure at all when to get my quali done though, but I'll hopefully get it done during Monday noonish. Cause I'm afriad I don't have much time this week.. Hence my "reserve driver" status/sign up. 👍

Looking much forward to it!

 

[paulmac2k9]

Den I don't think Biffy meant you, I think he meant the full time guys not the reserves after all reserves sign up as that because they can't make all the races .

Yes, but I said I'd race in Round 1, but did'nt show either for quali or race due to a power outage.. 👎

But yea, I hear you McKay! 👍

 

[Racingworld68]

I will probably be racing next monday, that is if there are spots open....

 

[Twissy]

Think Sunday will be my dedicated qualifying day for this series

I apologise to everyone and Biffy for not being here to race last Monday. I have been battling kidney stones off and on for the last week and a half. I was in urgent care on Monday. I have an 8.5 mm kidney stone in my kidney that has been making me very ill. Over the last year and a half I have passed 2 very small kidney stones. They make you very sick and hurt like you would not believe. I am having the kidney stone laser blasted in two weeks to break it up into smaller pieces to be able to pass it. I'm feeling better right now and with the meds I have to take, I should be able to be here.
I didn't intend on missing the race. I was online to practice and qualifiy on Saturday. I have no stewards on my friends list to contact them to qualifiy. The guys I was practicing with on Saturday couldn't qualify me. My computer is off when my playstation is on. I need to be able to contact a steward to qualify.
If you want to take me off the the league I have no problems with it. I don't generally miss races. I belong to the GTPFIA series that Jav hosts and I never mis races. I think he can vouch for me when it comes to that. I would really like to stay and I need to be able to get ahold of anyone of the stewards to be able to qualify for the races.
I do hope you all except my apology.

It's fine Dennis, as Paul stated that comment was more aimed at the full-time drivers. Going to be good to see you back in action next week 👍

No need for the over-explanation, one reason is good enough, and it is a very good reason I prefer that people state their intention to not race beforehand, but in your situation it is perfectly acceptable, and if you need to miss other races that's fine, your spot is safe as long as you communicate your intention to make a fair amount of races. It's those that have signed up and then just vanished from the thread and the track that are at risk of being taken off. In terms of qualifying, it's okay if you want to add some of the stewards on the sign-up list, just make sure you state when you intend to qualify on here beforehand, it helps the stewards a great deal to work something out. Anyway, I hope you get yourself better real soon man, don't race unless you're entirely comfortable 👍

I must also say sorry for my absence over the past few days. I just had two exams yesterday and today, and had to really prep myself beforehand, which meant I pretty much negated my series host duties for a few days. Thankfully Litchi took care of things while I was busy 👍 There is only one other week I will have to do this, and I may even have to miss a race, but I have full confidence in the PURE stewards to keep things in clockwork motion. But that doesn't matter for now - The next race, Tokyo, promises to be exciting to say the least, with all those walls.. I should have the Details post up tomorrow for it 👍

 

[Paginas1]

I might have to miss Mondays race I'm on the late shift however they are talking about if its really necessary me staying till 9 so I might be able to make it.

I will do my qualifying laps tho and just hope for the best
