thought I would share a favorite from a past school

Last round invitational will take place at the same track which is one of my favourites around the world.
Even as a teen-ager With grate love for motorcycles, i was attracted from this track with all the glamour inside and as one from the oldest street circuit .
When i grab the opportunity to go there for the first time ( i went 8 times in 11 years ) to see F1 gp i was in " trance" for at least couple of months .

Anyway back to our round now and today i will put my " plan" for 24hours of le man to see if am right .
Boogeyman you will not get away so easy on this !!!!

Yes, I miss this place too, I'd only like to have capture card also and my old setup back.. I think that's doable this year :)

I'm having a blast being a father, it would be even better if we aren't in this crisis situation (specially countries like ours)..

btw my princess has big balls lol
 


Is there one brave soul that can run this race????????????????????????????

Don't worry , am ready to race it , yesterday i try to find the Judd in what line up there is .
The first one with the toyota7 in first place and Minolta had a lot of traffic gathered when i try it ,so i search it again and really piss me off since i restart it more than 10 times to find it again .
Was a field with the two NASCAR's inside which was more comfortable on traffic jam .
He " eat" my time the 24 of lemans this week .

Sorry Tinkerbell ,i was on the idea that you have a daughter , perhaps cause i prefer them than the boys .
Also is difficult............. to piss you in the face when you change diapers .:lol::lol:

The Pescarolo Judd GV5 '04 must be in the Lineup. It does not start first just that it be in the lineup. Any question's? The Minolta and Toyota 7 is also in the lineup as they usually start first.

I know ,just try it for a few hour this morning ( again had to make enough restarts ) but i wasn't in the right mood to run this unharmed.
You need to take it slow in some areas and that drive's me to silly mistakes .
Anyway there's still plenty of time but as i remember from past challenges at the cement track i must maintain the flow ( fast or slow doesn't matter ) to complete it safe .

I started to try it today, it is hard, it is difficult to try not to touch with the other opponents, but it is a good race, very entertaining, I had never raced with that Ferrari.
If you stay on the inside of every corner you will WIN!! Also if after you have your nose in front the other race car your home free. You cannot prevent IA race cars ""the list is way too long"".

in fact I had that situation several times, but I didn't want to repeat the race anymore and I left it like that, just at the arrival of the first curve, I won the inside and the Ai put her nose in as if I wasn't there.

Since the end is drawing near I wanted to something about the school. Noel is taking the hub over. We will continue the races as Skeag Racing.
We will be adding a no tune race to the schedule along with the current format at the school.
Also since many like the time trials I am considering add those to be selected by participants in the school race. Same format as now.
You all know that we expect clean racing. The no tune event will not require a video, but will be based on honor. We have run our own no tune events. We have seen that they can be won by driving clean.
We are open to suggestions for other events.
Each new race will he posted at the end of the thread. Winners will be announced as before.
The one thing that I think may have been misunderstood pertaining to the school.
A school offers instruction and advice. Noel and I choose the cars and tracks. Noel drives it. I usually pick the car and do the tuning. Somehow we failed to convey that we offered support.
Going forward if anyone is struggling we are available to help via post or PM.

GT7 is still a Polyphony dream. We all have been with Gran Turismo to know that. We hope to offer you a racing challenge until then.
Best regards and many thanks to those who have participated.

Absolutely acceptable @Aramislegacy. There are times in all the races where the AI don't give. The challenge is to find the way around them. You have shown excellent skill in doing just that. Keep it up.
 
Since there's no action .....
Coming from Spetses at my side there's an old house that i love and i will never change it for something else .
