Hey OneMan - why not team up with qsilver73? Dont you guys already know one another?

 

[OneManRiot]

OneManRiot - Maybe team up with JAYVEE. He is a saffer (but has a UK flag coz he lives in the UK)???



Ya that is a difficult one. I was thinking of getting those 3 drivers have to make their car 'shared' before entering the lounge. The car can then be inspected before they enter. But then how would we stop that driver from changing things once in the lounge... Maybe we should change it to a setting that is easier to police. Any suggestions?

Ok Team me up with QuickSilver...

As for any suggestions, I dont know...Will play around with some of the setting tonight and see what comes from it and report back tomorrow...

 

[OneManRiot]

Yeah thats right, sorry bud...already committed to petrolhead.

I think I belong in the same category... but yeah, to be honest, I think I wouldn't be a good teammate for scale, because my diva-like attitude kicked in after winning the title and now I refuse to be anyone's 2nd driver

 

[BubbleBelly542]

I will be a stand in driver but I don't know how reliable I will be. I will try.

 

[Driver 101]

Yeah thats right, sorry bud...already committed to petrolhead.

LOL @committed to Petrolhead....

HAHAHA....Funny.

Remember, I will have the last laugh.

Just kidding - all good

👍

i have an idea of how we can run a different pp for different cars we can test it in the race on thursday

 

[Driver 101]

Whats the idea Will ??

 

[zuat]

Hey guys, I am trying to get hold of the GT-R Motul Autech Super GT '08, but you cannot buy it? Any ideas? Will, if we cant get the same car, then we need to use the yellow hat as that is freely available.

 

[Carbonox]

Homes, there seems to be an error in the entry list, qsilver is mentioned as the teammate for both OneManRiot and JV... or is this a secret 3 driver team

Homes, team me up with Qsilver...

 

[qsilver73]

[OneManRiot]

You can find it in the new car dealership at nissan...

 

[worduphomes]

OK, there is a feint picture of the provisional teams beginning to form. This is by no means final so let me know if you specifically want a different car or team-mate and we will see what we can do. Grey means there has either been no preference shown or their preference has an overlap with another team, so let me know an alternative (or beg for a specific car ) and I will try and allocate as best as I can...

LOL but I realy am blind

[qsilver73]

Is that why you 'drive by feel'

yip. could you see that

 

[Willfred_1]

as I probably wont be able to race today or next week as im on holiday i will show you my idea
are we using max downforce

 

[worduphomes]

OK will. Lets see your idea

Hope you guys are ready for some fun tonight?

Please get bring the car that has been assigned to you and make sure it is capabale of up to 605PP.

We will start the first few races with 580PP limit and slowly increase as we go to see how many people start struggling to race clean with more PP.

Most races tonight will be about 5 laps with about 3 to 4 minutes setup and qualifying time.

 

[Driver 101]

Great, I am there, thanks Homes.

@Will - come on dude, whats your idea? Downforce limits, no no...no way

 

[Willfred_1]

[worduphomes]

OK will it is in the calendar.
Thanks.

 

[Willfred_1]

heres the vid explaining the how it could work
sorry for the shaky hand and the bad mic and cheap camera

 

[Carbonox]

Indeedy it's cool how we got lots of guys here, but it seems impossible to get rid of all the lag - apparently there's simply too much distance between some of us and that's obviously unfixable.

How about my idea of giving post-race penalties for every shortcut? It could work when all the races are policed carefully, possibly by multiple people? I'm sure we can make this clean if it's gone fine in the other leagues too.

 

[worduphomes]

I am not in favour of policing to such a degree. I for 1 don't have time to watch a replay of someones race and examine every corner of their lap and policing to such a degree would mean that every driver would have to do the same thing. People would just simply not be prepared to.

I would rather just do one of 2 things:
1) Replace the track where cutting is possible in the calendar or
2) Allow people to cut in the knowledge that it is the same for everybody and hope that Polyphony release an update that penalises cutting better some time soon.

At the moment, I think option 2 is the best because the majority of drivers
a) Want to race at Monza.
b) Agree that cutting is acceptible as long as its the same for everyone.

Regarding the lag issue, we definitely have to do the formation lap idea because the vast majority of bad lag happens on the first lap and it wil help to eliminate it.
