What a wild few days.

Which is no different than in the real world of racing.

Tonight we'll run the DTM battle the Nurburgring GP/F circuit

It will be an hour long with only one stop required.
Normal wear and NO compound change.

The weather forecast WILL be sunny. After that we'll travel to Silverstone and let the
Lotus Elise 111 Rs run. The street car.

A short 10 lap race previewing mphile77 race on the 22nd of Dec.

If you guys want. The rest of the night will be Casual.

The 18 of Dec we will relax in our Honda Fitts in the Original 500 R

Followed by the Megane Trophy at Grand Valley.

My biggest sadness.

My big Snakes have retired after winning the Championship just a few days ago.
If forgot which series

^^^ That's something that I should have caught.
Usually anyone who has trouble, jumps out and right back in.
For me everyone was in and nobody showed signs of lagging or a weak internet.

Are we victims to the PS4 or PD's servers not up to the task of handling?
You guys may know more about servers than me.

Usually I'll delete me cache, delete the cookies in the internet browser. Even if you don't use the internet browser.
Either disconnect the other computers using the internet or turn them off.

Others tips include, unplugging the power to the modem and the router.
Down here there's a scam going on by my ISP, Cox. They bought a bunch of defective modems and are trying to force them on their customers. According to the FCC rules. Customers who purchased their own modem will not be forced to purchase another one for the convenience of the ISP. Once an ISP hear this over the phone, they back off.

A DOCSIS 3.0 modem.

According to reviews. The Motorola SB6121 Surfboard is the tops at $74.00.
I have a Motorola SB 5101 Surfboard. Its roughly 6 years old.
 
On the race.
Very interesting with many unexpected battles.
The lead Merc had three major mistakes, but battled back with his team mate.
The lone Audi A4 couldn't keep the pace and feel victim to the two charging Mercs who finished fifth and sixth.
The Audi ABT TT Coupes were separated from each other along with the BMWs.
The Astras were strong enough to run at the front with the winning BMW.

The biggest loss. Human sweat.
 
dude.... don't you see the two extra seats on both side?

one pit babe on the left to hold the cold beer...

one pit babe on the right to hold the potty...

:lol::lol::lol:

That is a beautiful set-up. I like my set-up but I can see myself building something like ole in the future. Here is a pic of my set-up.

Yep, check all those boxes and then some. It boils down to... I didn't catch it until qualifying started. And once qualifying started, there is no stopping it. Blame PD for this one, along with their list of other muckups.:banghead:

Still had a good time... considering. :crazy:
 
Hey, I'd like to get some ideas from you guys for my club. For those who don't know, I run a club called Sierra Themed Tarmac Rally. We meet weekly and race under certain rules that are unique - themes. I've run out of ideas after writing up 14 weeks worth of themes (Two are winner-selected).

Anyone have anything they'd like to see?
 
I had three major mistakes and three major lumps on my head after the race. Oh, they can hit hard.
Fortunately the Merc brothers battled back to respectable fifth and sixth place.
Thanks to the 'lone' Audi A4.

Major respect to the Astras.
Major respect to smcinnis. His Calibra ran great. I had a tough time catching him.

Welcome to tjger enduro events

I really appreciate that! I had a good run up until lap 10 or so when my tires started loosing grip. I was fast out of the corners, but too slow in and didn't have the top speed to hold off that beast of a merc. But I really, really like driving the Calibra. Had it not been for the DTM event I don't think I ever would have bought one.

Major respect to you Tjger for all your hard work in these events and making them exciting and fun!

I'm just thankful that I didn't cause any major incidents, that I know of, not being able to see half the field. Although now that @simalive mentions it, I have a feeling I was responsible for hitting @mphile77 :embarrassed:, and for that I apologize.
 
To be honest.
I was shocked. You drove that car great.
I could catch you on the straights only to lose you in the turns.
Yeah I noticed a little loosesness(is that a word, let me find my NASCRAPPER translation manual).

"He had a little looseness which is different than a full blown wiggle."

You finished last, but you didn't leave the race. Thats major respect from me.
Those that are bored. Watch him in action around lap 8-10. Now with a wheel???? Hmmmm

it's no big deal, I enjoyed racing through and working my up. That's the stuff I enjoy, love a challenge! Can't wait to watch both replays tonight, I'm using a pic of my lotus when I find it up on 2 wheels!
