Come on, nothing wrong with expanding on the genre. Sure they aren't as hardcore as someone like Rob Zombie or even Metallica. But they bring just as much energy as the older groups in the genre.

Well I wouldn't describe Rob Zombie or Metallica as "hard core", but no, they are idol singers with metal in the back ground.....<starts chanting>"NO IDORU! NO IDORU! NO IDORU!!!!!!

Hahaha.

I can just picture you chanting this everytime you see the car now out on track during a race meeting.

I've heard about psyching opponents out but this is something else

You can see my avatar yeh? I have that as a decal I uploaded too .

Yeah, but to be honest I don't see this group as being an "Idol" group.

I see that tag belonging more to groups like Blackpink, BTS, etc.

They wear a uniform, sing in a high pitched squeaky voice, perform unified dance moves and are far, far too cheerful.......IIIIDOLLLLL!

And above all else, they lack the attitude to be truly metal . Posers Must Die!

 

[kungtotte_]

If you swap out the squeak for growl and the cheer for brooding is it honestly any different from 90% of metal bands?

Well KISS technically wear uniforms too (although that's subject to interpretation).

Nope.

I grew up listening to the likes of Papa Roach, SOAD, Korn, Deftones and Slipknot. I've never gotten into Babymetal but appreciate that it's appealing to some

 

[Kuraudo]

I'm in the 1:24's/1:25's at Brands mate

Thank you . So to me it's a 27-28. I hope . Tomorrow is a day off, so there is a chance to run a few laps online .

Yeah, everyone has their own personal taste when it comes to music.

Spot on

Aaand they do the whole synchronised thing . But KISS has never been metal, they are a rock band. Back in the day the whole syncro movements were kewl. When they do it now, it just looks retarded... a bit like the grampa Les Pauls that Ace Frehley or Tommy Thayer use .

I saw a poster for their End of the Road tour today .

@Totalrose @Masters_ @Mark blacky

Final 3 drivers to confirm their entry for the season.

1 week left!

 

[Invisigoth]

1 week left!

LOL I fell asleep watching a certain series (think I'm into the tail end of the Terminator episodes). Woke up at midnight and thought the race was in a bit over 4 hours (daylight savings has ended).......

Mate that's a damn good looking livery.

Nice one 👍

 

[Kuraudo]

@llNovall tonight I'll send my picture for the guide .

After an (offline) 11 laps test run with tire wear/fuel con. => my lap times were "OK" (and within .5 second every lap ) but omg, this will be a brutal tire killer :S .

 

[Raptor013]

Yeah, Brands has never been kind on tyres in the races I've done (FIA and GT Sprint), although it does depend on the car and your driving style too.

Also for those racing at the season opener. I'm working on a small project for the post race coverage. And would like to know which of you consider Brands Hatch to be your home race for this season.

Also if you have any sort of team name (can include a sponsor that appears on your car if you wish) so I can add this info to the post race results table and the new pre-race grid presentation, I'll be doing.

I live 30 minutes from Brands, its the first track I raced at (bikes in 81) and the last track I raced at (F2 sidecar 95) I guess I'd call it my home track As for a team name I normally have GBRC as a main sponsor.

Nice. Have to hand it to those brave/crazy enough to race bikes/sidecar. Especially on some of the more technical places like Brands with all the elevation changes through corners.

I'll lock you in for GBRC as your team name if that's okay with you.

 

[paoloevans]

Brands is defo my "home" Circuit although I live nearer Thruxton and Silverstone.

Brands was the first race track I ever went to. I was 5 years old

As for team name it would be "Spirit Of Race" and main sponsor is "Dogs Trust".



Sounds good whatever you have planned mate

 

[Raptor013]

Yeah, I've got a few things planned. Will be whipping up the first one tonight, to go live on Thursday prior to the opening race weekend. The other will form part of the post race package.

Plus I've got to get (finish) the season finale coverage from last season (it's been crazy here the past few weeks.)
