The GTPFIA GT World Cup Season 2 2012

[Peter.]

After the first few laps, I thought about parking it, but I kept on going, and eventually managed to net 10 points, rather than 0. 8 points behind is much better than 18. Moral of the story, is to never quit. Those points might end up being very valuable.

Joe you ruined 2 of my fastest qualy laps by not watching your mirrors, and during the race you came out of the pits right in between me and Tissimo while I was catching him big time. The whole race you looked like you were in GT3 class or something, if I was that far off the pace I would watch not race, and worst of all you Lag for me quite badly dude.
Listen maybe your a bit rusty, I'm sorry for getting upset. Your usually a fair and clean racer.

 

[Peter.]

I wonder, with the Ford's straightline speed being below par, should I take all the downforce off, use its mechanical grip advantage to claw me back into it, or keep full wings, and 1 stop? Goingot run some testing tonight in the lobby to see what's the smartest thing to do.

I'm sorry for your qualifier I usually don't ruin peoples out laps, but I hadn't got a qualilying lap in so I was rushing to get 1 in and made a rookie mistake cutting you off. To your 2nd comment of slow pace doesn't constitute no race, its all part of the game of racing. By the way for only 1hr of practice I wasn't the slowest person on track'

How many laps are we doing at monza?

 

[lewis f1fan]

Hi guys. I have yet to join a club or league and would very much like to join your club. I see you already into your season so will understand if you cant let me join. Im clean and quick. Thanks

Is monza next track?

 

[smokedogg]

Is monza next track?

Yes....

My favorite track 👍

I think I might actually run a few practice laps so I make a decent showing....

I should be able to challenge for a podium this week... Lambo is good on the straights.

 

[joetruckv8]

Anybody have any target times yet? I figured 1:43's or lower since this is what I opened up with on softs, not to be too funny'

Likewise my car :tup

Interesting test session today I tried playing with the down force on my NSX and found that I could run the same or even a tenth or two better with full down force, how is this possible? I figured that lowering the down force would help with overall speed but my speed at the start finish was still the same.

Better corner speeds and higher exit speeds.

Questions about last race.
PJ did you have engine damage near the start?
Magz did you also get engine damage later on by lap 4?

My replay says you guys did but you guys certainly were not effected by it. I'm guessing its just a faulty replay...Says Lucky had front right and left tures damaged but he was fine too. Im so confused. Whenever I get engine damage the car just crawls.


I can't imagine how much shorter pit stops in-game would be if the crew only realized the car has a center locking nut.

 

[VELOCI_2NR]

The damage shown by them is just your games perception of reality due to lag. None had any severe damage, and if they did, you would certainly see them falling back, as would anyone else.

That would be nice, but then they might realize that they cant fix the suspension or engine of the car in less than 10 seconds, or even worse, that I'm not paying them

 

[luckylefty2gunz]

Yea that has to be lag, cause I didn't have any damage during the race. They need to fix the online issues with the connections because until recently i've never been disconnected before. I have my ports set to open with NAT type 2. and not everybody is loaded all the time. These are serious problems that need addressing, thanks PD!

 

[Peter.]

Only damage I had was after my crash. None otherwise.

 

[Blaze_409]

Anybody still planning to race this sunday besides me?

 

[Jav]

Lol!! Yes sir!!

 

[smokedogg]

Unfortunately I'm gonna miss this race....
I was all gearing up for my favorite track, and I completely forgot I'm leaving Sunday morning for vacation lol

So my spot is open for a reserve if needed

 

[VELOCI_2NR]

gotta keep my championship lead for next weekend where I'll be missing

I'm going online now! Room should be up in arround 10 minutes!

 

[Magzire]

gonna give this one a miss. way to tired.

 

[Peter.]

A lot of people don't like Monza, but tonight was a chatastrophe. Sevral issues with qualifying orders, lag, loading times, meant we started something like an hour late, and evne then the order was completely ruined. Veloci was 15th, I was 11th, and crashing and lag was an issue.

We really need to re-do this race, or cancel it altogether and do Nurburgring GP/F or Grand Valley Speedway in its place next week. Awful night.

Lucky. You dont deserve to race here ever again. Your just dirty and lack respect for any drivers. First you wipeout on your own and decided you couldnt let me go on. I know you just wrecked me on purpose so that i could go down with you but fine. We pitted and where running 4th and 5th. Forgive and forget. Then I keep checking my rear view because i know your dirty already and low and behold. YOu kept cutting The second chicane by miles to catch me. Is that how you want people to race. That was a **** show that you put on. Unacceptable. I dont even wanna race if we are gonna keep CLOWNs like you...Serves you right that you got disconnected or whatever happened to you.

 

[tissimo]

Well that was fun.... For the first 28 laps... Then i realized why when I had half fuel at lap 16 it wanted to put in 18 liters... The race wasn't 30 laps...... Fail. Other wise was fun.. even though only 6-7 ppl finished.


Good luck next week Veloci!

 

[Kakarot]

If this round dosent count I suggest a new track as well preferably laguna Seca or Grand Valley full. Also wth happened I didnt see any lag from my point of view, was there a mass disconnect or rage quits?
