Suzuki Swift - Season 3 - Carbonox Takes The Title

[Spurgy 777]

I know, that corner sucks a bit for online racing.. but i don't know if it helps to be too conservative through the corner, feels like it causes just as many crashes when the others come soaring in to the back of you. I like Rome though, it's a bit rough but it's a fun track.

I think its fine if people are sensible and take care not to hit people wide into the wall which is what causes pile ups.

 

[Phouchg]

I hit the wall several times in the second race and cause a lot of trouble.. but that was because i was trying to take it conservatively, my brain couldn't handle that new speed and i just crashed in to either the right side wall or the one on the outside. ^^ Maybe I should stop hanging my brain up on certain speeds in corners. because when in packs, that's usually ruined and i fail to adjust.

 

[FlyingFox]

I ran wide into a wall the was hit by Spurgy for good measure.

Even at the back of the pack during race 1it was a great race for the last of the points.

As for race 2, after keeping Ghoztmazta honest for several laps I again ran out of road, and talent and lost the draft. Went into the pits 4th and came out in 4th but continued to run out of talent and came last.

My best tip to drive in packs (f it is a tip) brake very little before you self would brake then when you see your opponent brake right after you see their brake light you brake. And then adjust your brake pressure so you come closer you opponent. That way, no big crashes.

In race 1 i got hit many times.......

Race 2 you shot me straight into the wall at the chicane

I didnt, watch the replay it was the car on the inside.

Just noticed, if only you'd had 11 racers in lobby's at the start of the season Fox, done a good job to go from 6 at Tuskuba to 11 last night

 

[Carbonox]

Very oddly, me, akmuq and Spurgu were not amongst the top 3 point scorers in Rome (those were Ghozt, Nel and Niko in the end). Well, that was definitely a bump drafting fest, almost comparable to an oval.

Seca will be a true test of skillz.

Most of the tracks are bump draft fests

 

[Phouchg]

Even quali is a draft fest, if you don't get some draft in quali you can't get a top time. ^^

Not even close to Rome!

 

[Phouchg]

Laguna won't be even close to that.. way harder track and sand! It will spread out the field a lot more.

 

[Carbonox]

And I don't remember bump drafting playing any part in Tsukuba

 

[Phouchg]

That's because it was the first race and everyone sucked By the way, it will be sad to see this headline disappear on sunday, when will that ever happen again?

 

[FlyingFox]

Last race of the season this Sunday.

Just who will take the title?

 

[Phouchg]

I will, by some amazing miracle I win both races without even practising while Akmuq and Carbonox get disqualified from the whole series when fox finds out that they've been fiddling with things they shouldn't

If they fiddle with things too much the'll go blind.

You don't count Spurgy, you're a alien!

 

[neljack]

You don't count Spurgy, you're a alien!

I dont really count him regardless of him being an Alien.

Love you really Sprug x

 

[FlyingFox]

Let's go break his internet.

 

[Spurgy 777]

If you make me sad I'll just have to drive quicker

 

[Phouchg]

Neither Spurgy or Ghozt count, spurgy is an alien and ghozt is pretty obvious what he is.. both kinds have obvious advantages and don't need draft.

 

[Spurgy 777]

What is Ghozt if he's not an alien?

 

[Phouchg]

A ghost?!

 

[Spurgy 777]

A ghost?!

I don't consider ghosts to be fast or capable of driving cars

 

[Phouchg]

But they can cut through walls! he's probably driving a ghost car too.

[Akmuq]

I'm pretty sure ghozt does make contact, but he does weave a lot.
