ill be there in a bitski

Ok ,I think I sent you an invite

 

[Schmiggz]

I'll give my place to @DesertPenguin09 FOR TONIGHT ONLY.
I had an awful day and my head is about to burst. I already took an aspirin but I'm still feeling like crappie.
I'm probably gonna be OK by race time but, oh well... I guess I'm making a big mouth pinguin happy.
Count me in next week

 

[DesertPenguin09]

The thought is appreciated @Schmiggz but I made other plans already. I do plan to race next week and will practice a strategy of sorts in the meantime.

Wow , get out the brooms, it was a mexxi sweep . In all seriousness guys great job, everyone did a fantastic job tonight! 1 land mine which gathered the top 3 out of 4 cars race one lap 2 was a bit sketchy but other than that some good fun racing, hope everyone enjoyed it!

 

[sgohsixthree]

Great job all! Some FANTASTIC new additions to SRM this week. Welcome to the new fellas and hope they stick around.



And quite the performance by @mexxifrieboy . Well done sir!!

Next week we continue the series at Watkins Glen and Silverstone! Keep an eye on the thread and for other guys practicing and we can share some tips and tunes if need be.

 

[Br1mann]

Good race guys. Nice winS mexi. That's the old mexi we know. Welcome to all the new guys. Sorry to hobbs for cutting you off. I had a good run and though I was clear in the second race. I had some serious wheel glitch I couldn't get fix in the first race, which I never get. It wouldn't even calibrate in the Pcars settings. I had to hook it up to my computer to re-calibrate. By the way, T-500 owners there is a new firmware update.

 

[EvoGT89]

Great race everyone! Looking forward to the next one.

Not to hi-jack or anything - but for any Toronto locals... I'll be participating in a league race at RaceSim1 end of this month... details are below:

Feel free to send me a pm if you have any questions.

 

[mexxifrieboy]

Thanks guys. I still think ehTeam gave me the best congratulations though lol

 

[mphile77]

Again well done last night gang!

Just want to touch base on the grid, and reserve drivers. If you sign up for the series you have a spot on the grid, but if you miss a week and a guy can fill in and log races in your place this person will have the chance to retain them points and the spot moving forward. I did not explain this rule before the series, and i dont have this posted on page one so it wont affect last week. That said going forward i will put this rule into affect! If you no you can only make one race i will hold your spot for you if i know about it. Im going to post this all on page one so going forward we have a plan in place. I want to repeat nothing changes for this week coming up, everyone has their positions!!!

Added: this really only applies when we have 16 drivers signed up.

I need to penalize myself for starting the first race with 50 liters of fuel amd not fueling during the pit stop. I have no idea how to IR myself. I guess I should lose a few points for that blunder.

I also apologize to Aero for giggling when he was having such a bad night.

Guess we will have to kick you out now

 

[GTproRacer29]

That's the thing ,how do we kno if everyone really starts with 30 lol kind of a silly rule

 

[Mike Lobban]

I understand the reasoning behind starting with 30 liters, I just got my leagues mixed up. I would rather see tire wear set a little higher where a tire change will be necessary.
It was gratifying to see two different cars that handle so differently compete equally on the track. Great seasonal pick for the series.

I thought so!!! I was the first into the pits by about 10 seconds and you came out right on my ass. Lol

Yeah we can't regulate it at all, it's on the honor system, and to make pit stops a little more meaningful than just a stop and go. Trying something different from time to time. Can't say you'll be doing that too often in future series.

 

[Schmiggz]

So, I offer my position to penguin and he didn't took it???
Everyday you learn something new! I'll be able to participate next week

We gave it to another guy.

 

[mphile77]

Ok our grid spot rule is officially on page one now, please read and i hope you can understand my jibber jabber that I typed up there .

Quick story:
Promotions are not always a good thing!
Yes, I got promoted! Now I'm a foreman so Im full responsible for a large working crew in my job site and I make 2 more dollars per hour!
Awesome? NO! NOT AT ALL!
Now my phone rings every 2 minutes with some *******g project manager questioning everything, my workers asking me 200 questions per hour, deciding what to do and what not to do and after 8 hours I still have to watch everybody going home while I still have to meet with the builder's supervisor to plan the next day!

That's why I was down last night. Next week I'll be one week more experienced... I'll be fine... I guess!

 

[DesertPenguin09]

For just two more dollars? Ask for more!

That's why I went back to my old job after half a year. To much BS.

If successful I'd like to continue this trend of simulating real races with all the buds, with point standings carrying over. Because I need more things to occupy my time. ​

Driver whatever you want, except the Ginetta GT4.

 

[SGETI]

I like the idea and thought of what your trying to do. Lets hope we have a balanced field.

You sure you want 5X tire wear? No need to worry about mandatory pit stop with 5X.

See all on Friday.

 

[IceWarden]

So I see few familiar faces from the PITS series here...and I MAY have Friday night free...not sure yet.

What is the possibility of joining in with the McLaren GT3? Since we are running this car right now in PITS I already have it tuned somewhat. Any idea how long the race will be with 30laps?

Yeah it's really more of a formality. I found myself pitting every 5-6 laps for tires, ideally you'll have to make 3+ stops, just like the real races.

For sure! Im not limiting the number of entries per car.

The race will be about an hour.

Is there a mandatory tire compound or amount of fuel to start with? Or just run how you want as long as you pit at least once?

Exactly. I did a mandatory cause I know there are some crazy :censored:s that will try and do the whole thing on the same tires without stopping. Up to you how you want to run your stops. No limit on fuel, the car will run the whole race without having to fill up if that's how you want to run.

Add me: smcinnis and @mphile77 (same name on PSN). This is something I decided to put together last minute so I'll be hosting, but he's the normal host, so good to have to get in on any future events as well.
