Spoon S2000 Race Car - S.O.T.B [Round 1]

[Kelly]

I think all my hits are in the bends

 

[Kelly]

Only if you pit (just like frys said).

I see, how stupid of me

👍

 

[Small_Fryz]

Ron, Ron, Ron......

what wonderful questions for your AI rules.

After this round i bet you will never allow AI touches again!!

 

[Mr P]

In my race, the corner just before T2, the Subaru drives sleightly into the side of my car. I am full on the gas when it happens. Is this a bad run? I did not use the AI car for an advantage. In Fact I wish the bastard wasn't there at all.

I will let you make your own judgement on that one Jim 👍 If the AI hit you in the bend then it sounds like your run is still good to me

My main point about AI in the bends was the fact that they can be used as moving walls with a nicely timed deliberate contact!

*anything that is noticably! .. not a deliberate attempt to gain time using the AI in the bends is good in my books!
just stick to the 3 touch maximum ruling*


In answer to Fryz: ... ... you read me like a book mate after this round AI contact will not be allowed for the duration of the comp 👍

 

[Dave_George]

Are you racing in arcade mode Dave? I don't think fuel comes into play unless it's GTmode...though I could be wrong

Yes im in Arcade mode, Nobody actually said if they had the fuel meter on their cars aswell though! I would have thought it might add more weight to the car, think im running at 945KGs is this correct?

I went into options and selected 2 laps/no tyre wear but theres nothing for fuel so would imagine everyone else has same, of course the problem could be that im just pathetically slow round here as i never drive it really....

Still enjoying it though and not having problems with the ai though as long as you remember they will always move the same every time you run the race you can alter your line to miss them 👍

Dave

Thats the words I was looking for in all my explanations ... cheers mate 👍

 

[Hugo Boss]

Sometimes the AI picks a different line though... And then you crash into them

I give up

 

[Small_Fryz]

I give up

Yes, thats 1 place higher for me!!

 

[NielsG]

Time submitted.

1'14.441
1'07.553

One legal AI touch.

See you in next round.

 

[Mr P]

Dream on sucka

btw this in your sig

Question of the week... When does BRB become BBL?

why do I feel guilty when I look at that?

 

[hOt6o4bOi]

lol when i read that, i feel the same way

time to leave the pits 👍

 

[Kelly]

Some splits from a legit save for me..

37.850/ 1'13.661
30.724/ 1'07.148

line up is delta/suby/corolla/celica/stratos 👍

 

[Tedehur]

Time submitted.
Not much practice (that was my 4th or 5th legal race), and craptastic T2s :
1'15.190
1'07.486

Line-up : Impreza / Impreza / Lancer / Celica / Celica

I passed both Imprezas at the end of the main straight.
From third to first in 2 seconds.

The combo is addictive enough to be worth an avatar change

 

[hOt6o4bOi]

0'37.520 / 1'13.147
0'30.238 / 1'05.272

sorta happy with this, lost mayb .350 or so

but ehh... no use really tryin unless i get the right combo...

5 tries and ill give up if i dont get it

 

[Iceman]

I think you mean 37.5 at t1

 

[holl01]

i checked the replay and i had three touches, one of them was during a corner, but i did not use the car to avoid braking, meaning that i would have easily completed the turn even if the car wasnt there.

 

[kart.no.38]

I think I found the combo that holl01 experienced.

I have 2 scubis in front followed by a lancer and then two celicas. So I have left the PS on for when I go back at lunch time to get stuck in.

To bad for me I did miss this discussion.

I didn't save a run with the same conditions and car.

Ach, I was only half a second faster at the end.

Anyway,I'm done.

T2 1'15.107
T2 1'06.648

 

[kart.no.38]

If brushing on the straights does not count as a touch then here is my t2 times:

1'12.391/1'05.079

please say whether a brush does count..

Yes a brush is counted as a touch as contact was made no matter how small ... but! .. you are allowed 3 brushes or touches in total 👍

 

[Alex DeLarge]

Mr. P., I'm pretty new around here but I would like a lot to get a good time together (for me). The problem is that I work 60+ hours a week and this Friday is the first day I can really put a lot of work into my attempt. I do not mean to be rude or imposing but is there any way the Friday deadline can be pushed up to Saturday morning so that i can make Friday evening runs like the drivers in Europe?? 9 O'clock GMT is only Noon here which is 3 hours before I'll be getting off work. I know it is a stretch to change the submission structure for one guy, especially one not yet known, but please consider it. Thank you.

 

[hOt6o4bOi]

never got the dream combo you guys all got

so im submitting my time, probly a second off the real pace...

I will gladly consider it Alex ... No probs! .. But! it's the opinion of the other drivers that count as they are the majority, I can only say if no one opposes it? I will change the deadline to Saturday morning ..

But I need to hear what others say first 👍

Round 2 will still be posted on the Friday though! ... no matter what

 

[Iceman]

I'd love to have it Saturday Ron, I havn't even had a chance to run this more than 15 min, I'm really busy with school now

 

[hOt6o4bOi]

yup, i see no problem with it going to Saturday

although this is the 2nd moveback? i dont think a 3rd time should happen

its all up to Ron tho, and if this causes him any trouble... if it doesnt Saturday is good

 

[eggmann]

Personally I don't have a problem with a different deadline for future races, but I think it's unfair to change it less than 24 hours before the end of a race. There's probably a couple people right now working on their last few attempts, and if they find out when they're finished that they could work another day...
This race has already been up since last Thursday, so people on my side of the world who like to drive Friday nights already had last Friday.

 

[Small_Fryz]

I dont mind about the deadline, What ever suits Ron. Though i do agree a little with Eggmann, some have submitted knowing they cant race more, only to find out now they can!.

Hard situation. I dont mind what happens though.

 

[GT3mich]

There is always the next race. Get the best you can before tomorrow morning. Besides, I hate waiting for results.

 

[Kelly]

I don't mind when the deadline is, I'll get a time in whatever.

TBH I think if you are working a 60+ hour week Alex then maybe this isn't the series for you
