I've been awake since 4:00 PM yesterday (don't ask) so don't expect too much if I end up racing today.

Is there a lobby up now or what?

Yes.

 

[Ettick]

I'll be there in a few minutes then, eating lunch.

 

[nascarfan1400]

@ITCC_Andrew apparently having internet issues.

 

[FordMKIVJ5]

Won't make it, forgot completely and I'm knackered right now.

Lol we haven't done more than 5 practice laps yet.

 

[Wrcgamer]

Be friends with @ITCC_Andrew, it's a private lobby.

 

[Ettick]

I don't see the lobby

 

[nascarfan1400]

I don't see the lobby

Andrew DCd, new one going up momentarily I'd assume

 

[Ettick]

I know, but I've been working most of the day and am absolutely shattered, so I don't really feel like jumping on the PS3.

Don't jump on it your sure to break it.

 

[ITCC_Andrew]

Darn. Looks like it is going to be difficult to get a race going like this...

I'll figure it out soon, though, hopefully. I'll see you guys next Sunday... Nice racing today, though. Lots of clean, close battles. Draft really makes a huge difference in these little cars.

 

[Ettick]

I'll keep the lobby up if people still want to race

I wouldn't say huge, but there is a bit of a benefit.

 

[Wrcgamer]

Sorry I drpped out guys my playstation overheated

Managed to run a 2:13.7 (Monza '80's) during the race, the last corner is pretty important.

In a stock Cooper... I'm stupefied.

With draft? Or without?

It's not impossible, and it's not stock. Also remember that '80s layout is worth like 10 seconds, meaning that ITCC 5 cars are running the same lap times as GT3 cars on the modern layout.

To put it in perspective, the MINI would actually have hit 2:23.xyz if it had been modern layout.

 

[AudiMan2011]

I ran a 2:14.4 at one stage during the practice runs. With more people, and hopefully less DCs, the racing should be frantic.

No draft

I made a lobby after the race to practice and was on pace for 2:13.7 after like 25 min of practicing, it is possible
I was just in the zone that one lap I guess.

I'm thinking it comes down to practice in the new Monza layout. Of course, it's good to practice it up, 'cuz you never know... #implications #impliedmeaning #ITCC #WTFhashtags!

There is construction in my neighborhood. This might be the cause of the problems. Fear not, they're on my end, and will be sorted out

 

[FordMKIVJ5]

By the way @ITCC_Andrew, I would like to switch to the Mini if that is ok? Just feels so much more alive than the Honda.

Okay

 

[Ettick]

I don't actually like Monza '80s by the way, feels like it'd just become a huge NASCAR style draft fest.

We should test GT Arena sometime.
