As usual, how long until the room goes up? Tried to figure it out on my own but as usual, I cannot comprehend timezones.
45 minutes from now.:cheers:

@Rob Brown , wish I could. Just got on bed. Got to be up at 2:30 am. Good luck to everyone racing tonight.👍
 
Check me out for tonight. I have to be ready for my sons call and it's usually around race time.
 




I am seriously considering just quitting after what was an appalling night for me. Caused three accidents and just found a way to keep screwing up. I am just a damn Road Block at this point and I don't want to bother anymore if all I am capable of doing is just being a wayward bowling ball. Just frustrated, not as much as I was earlier but still slightly fuming.

Hey man I had a good time racing you, I too am a hazard in this series and I feel the same in certain races but I'd hate to lose someone who is relatively close to my pace, just faster :cheers::cheers:

Dude, take it from me, someone that has been on the pointy end of the grid this season, this track blows. Other tracks if you get your braking slightly wrong (apart from Autopolis) you have room to recover. This track, takes no prisoners only death. Keep your head up. You actually raced well. Just need to figure out the mistakes and learn from them.

As for me............thank god the night was over and done with :banghead:

Shouldn't I be +8 based on the rules here and the results from last round?

"For podium finishers of each event:
1st place Overall: +3% weight add
2nd place Overall: +2% weight add
3rd place Overall: +1% weight add
(Ballast to be added up to a +9% weight add.)
(**Any drivers with added weight ballast that place outside the top 5 will have -1% weight removed**)"

You would be correct sir. I'll edit it in a few minutes. Thanks for the catch.:cheers:

Since I don't have a good replay from the last one to share, please accept my apologies for the photo dump giantpost.

I tried to grab images from earlier in the races when the pack was still tight, though some other opportunities presented later on.

I imagine that wall has accumulated a lot of kills.

I tried to get everyone in here somewhere.

There were a few moments that made for some fun shots, and this was one of them. The front and rear wheel speed differential shows up with the right shutter speed.
20210410040744.jpg


I haven't much experience with the photo mode on here, and since this scene looked good I played with some of the filters.

Some more loaded up suspensions.

Here's another loaded up suspension, and another one that I really liked the scene. This was @racingchamp30 iirc and he just about nailed this turn, had the car set up right, and the car looks great so I enjoyed taking a few.

Awesome job getting it all together. Thank you for the mentions.
 
Well it took a lot longer than expected to get this move done and get "somewhat" settled in but we just finished getting our setups all put back together again, but I will be taking the next week to brush off any rust I've developed.
See you all on the track real soon.
