Ascari is a very tough track, I havent even done any running. Gonna have to drive it tonight or tomorrow morning......

That first tight corner after the chicane is a doozy. Hoping the comforts dont cause me to swing sideways every lap there.

Somebody is going to be sliding off into the countryside and cursing a boatload of nasty words, this track is if you go off at high speed you end up in the next county or district or whatever they call it in Spain.
 
just clipped a pole with my dads car, was trying to drift in a BMW 520d, way to little power to drift in the dry...

thats pretty bad right?

Define "clipped"

Did it suddenly start to grip mid drift ? **** happens, i almost clipped my car this winter learning AWD drifting, just minimize steering and keep your foot on the gas is how you do it, i overcorrected it though.. could have ended badly.

In your sig that song seems like she made it for you lol, what have you got going on with Katy Perry? ;)

I just clipped the inside too tight, I was expecting the car to drift out more than it did...

Yes, she made it for me, and what we got going is personal ;)

Anyway, enough of the offtopic.

I was off enough to wonder the others were tuning or if they had switched tire types. :lol: THought if I could keep immortal under 2 laps ahead I could finish but I just decided to give up with 9 or so to go. Cant believe the speed, weird how much more time there is. Glad that go forsaken track is done. Sorry to getting in anybodies way. I and a few others were out of control.....
 
To TRL_Andromeda.

I want to let you in a secret. When people are in the middle of a race. Not one of them......and I will replete that. Not one of them are remotely interested in the fact that you missed the race. Hell they could even work it out themselves by the fact of............mmmmmm ....let me think. YOU WHEREN'T THERE AT THE START, haha.


In practice and race there seems to be a lot of people running round with the start button pressed. Please if you don't want to lap, come into the pits or pull over off the racing line, come to a stop and press start. (not in the eye line of a breaking zone. On the inside of a traction zone is the best place.

Is there another way to do qualy. Some way that it's more real? You can't even see the cars on the map to make space for yourself. You just come up on a floating name and blue line.

Can you tell? I'm bloody pissed off.

Yes please no typing during the race @TRL_Andromeda

And again yes please park in pits if you decided to quit.

Third point. You know you can map a button to turn off the ghosts/blue lines? Take a look at your controller options ;)

Welcome to my world for the past couple of weeks mate :lol:
 
I have to mention the track cutting today. In Q, after I felt like I had my best lap, I decided to park in front of the final chicane. I'm appalled at the track cutting by the top 6 guys. All of you cheated. And when I look at the replay I see the top 4 cut the chicanes nearly every single lap. The faster you were the more you decided to straight line these sections. This is absolutely appalling and I will refuse to host this series if such things continue... Just 🤬 ridiculous :grumpy:
 
Yeah great race tonight, I needed a half decent result to kickstart my season and get rid of a bit of bad form. Feel a bit more confident with the car now after all of that practice :lol:

I'd probably say 4th was a fair position for me tonight given my recent form. But yet again I was hit off by a back marker under blue flags when I was running in 3rd place and fighting with Aug. I had good pace at that point but when lapping Tex he just swiped into me and hit me off onto the grass causing me to spin and lose 20+ seconds. Aug then got past me and I lost my motivation after that.

PLEASE when a faster car is behind you, hold your line and come off the throttle a little bit. DON'T weave all over the place and hit lapping cars off and hold them up. I promise that I will extend the same courtesy to you. I'm looking forward to the next race now, pretty determined to try to have an even better one next time and get back onto the podium. :cheers:
 
Welcome to my world for the past couple of weeks mate :lol:


No, no I'm only joking. Still great fun. I too lost interest after a bit of bad driving. At one point I nearly quit, (drama queen) but decided to keep lapping but the heart wasn''t in it. Anyway on to the next race.

Top 6 cut in qually, top 4 in race. Big penalties are needed as this was my first time here and did my best not to cut.

Like in F1 their qually times are null and void. Cutting ever lap in the race. Disqualified.
 
I know me and the other top 3 would say i did it because he was doing it, no i did it because he was doing it and so on, Ofcourse it doesn't make it acceptable but the cutting wont happen like they did here again mainly because other tracks on the calendar don't promote cutting as much.

I understand that 'he did it, so I did it' conundrum. I wish one of you would've been the "leader" not the "follower". Winning doesn't mean much to me if my integrity is hurt. Each and every single one of you should share the same sentiment.

This isn't even my series but I host the rooms and feel like the only one really trying to make things run smooth and fair.

If he stuck his hand into the fire, would you, haha.

This guy has just admitted to cutting on purpose. Sweet lord. Different tracks have different features. Saying that this track isn't like others is no defense.
 
I don't know what the other stewards think or the other drivers, but I think it would reasonable to allow going over the concrete bits in the chicanes as long as wheels stay off the grass. Other than those areas though, the track limits will be the white lines.

I tried my best to keep to the concrete sections and any time I touched the grass it would be a genuine mistake with tyre wear and I would lift off slightly. Not sure how bad the corner cutting of the other top 3 was but I did try my best to keep to the specified concrete track boundaries at the chicanes.

I obviously don't have the time to watch each persons complete race, so I didn't see every lap you did. The starts are always frantic. Now since it can be tricky sometimes to not cut accidentally, so many of you did it, and a small number of stewards, theirs really not much I feel I can do. The results will have to stand I suppose :rolleyes:

That's a bad metaphor.

This guy? I have a name, atleast have the courtesy to tag me or anything. I just said if you read my post that It's not acceptable still, all i said was it promotes corner cutting more than others and that's a fact.
 
No it's a perfect metaphor. By cutting you all where playing with fire. The fire being the penalty should get if said cutting did happen.

Sorry Evo. That did sound bad. I'm not the greatest typerest. I just never heard of anyone admitting to cutting before. Amazing.
 
If penalties were given out it wouldn't affect the race results anyways, well it could but that depends on the penalty rule and how severe it would be. @IMMORTALPILOT you're the boss here m8 It's your decision.

If i may add you would then need to watch every player and penalize every 3rd corner cut for example, which i don't think we have enough stewards for. It's the only way to ensure fair penalties and fair race results.

Was Immortal not cutting too? How is it his decision?

Because he sets the rules in this series, and i can't find any specific penalties for each offence. That's why he need to take a decision and maybe enforce a solid penalty system.
 
Oh right but it's not looking good. Cutting in qualy and the race, a lot. There is only really one penalty. 25 seconds for every 3 corner cut. That will cut the cutting out of people, haha. (Pardon the pun).

Over and out.
