The Rolex Sports Car Series- Season 2! Finished! Thanks Everyone!

I steered to the left to avoid hitting him, not a slide. As for you Tez Storm, superiority complex makes no sense. I don't drive off after pushing someone aside. You still don't have that conclusive evidence of my divebombing. And yes, you're still not a grownup IMO. Shinshiki got huge draft from me. I expected that which is why I went left before the turn. To come in tight for a better exit. He outbraked himself in bad conditions and used my car to help him through the turn he was overshooting.

Room open yet?

 

[MOTORTRENDmitch]

Room open yet?

I don't know whether or not the room is open, however what I can bet, is that Caution flags are already flying.

 

[polarbear345]

Because its too long to type... Here's my idea:

Race 1- Rome

Race 2- (if we have time) Monza

Race 3/2- Nurb gp/f

 

[ghskilla]

And if we finish Monza before cnd gets here we get to have fun lobby time!

 

[polarbear345]

Yes!

 

[Cowboys965]

And is Monza 1 1/2 hours from now about? Then I might be there!

That is a valid opinion. The more I look at the photos, the more it looked like the 246 incident between you and I. This is assuming that you were going for a cross-over. When I watched the replay; however, it appeared that you were sliding and he just happened to be there. I am sure you will say that is not the case. I think the contact actually corrected a spin you would have had all by yourself if he wouldn't have been there. I do believe that he divebombed you. I don't believe that the divebomb was the cause of your mess up. That is just my opinion and I will not hold it against anyone if they disagree.

I got DC 👎👎👎 This internet makes me sick

 

[polarbear345]

I got DC 👎

Me too... I knew it was going to happen though, I hadn't played online today. I need to D/C once before. I'll be good for the rest of the night.

 

[Cowboys965]

Guys if you didn't start Monza, wait for me, I'll be on soon.

 

[cnd01]

Guys if you didn't start Monza, wait for me, I'll be on soon.

I will be online in about 30-45 minutes. It has started raining again, so all the golfers are hurrying up to finish their round.

 

[polarbear345]

Guys if you didn't start Monza, wait for me, I'll be on soon.

Alright, we will.


Guys, everyone re read the OP. Cautions MUST HAVE 2 PEOPLE! That being said, if someone calls a caution, WE WILL DO A CAUTION!

And these next races, treat them like a try-out. Dirty driving on ANY LAP, will not be tolerated. If anyone is bumping, passing or doing anything stupid in formation laps, or caution laps, tell me!

Again with the cautions, as soon as you see "caution" in the chat box, passing is not allowed!!! DP, we will slow wayy down and wait for GT to catch up, then Both classes will pit, and the race will start.

Read above AND THIS:


-Only the leader in DP must slow down, until all drivers are on the lead lap and filed behind their respective class leader.
-Do not slow down until two (2) drivers have called caution
-Do not assume that the other person involved wants a caution
-DO assume that the race stays green until two or more people agree that it's under caution
-Do NOT, under any circumstances, pass someone who is ahead of you during a caution, if two drivers have called caution.
-Do pass freely UNTIL two drivers have called caution.
-If you make contact and bring out the caution, do restart at the back of the field.
-If you bump and spin someone, and that person hits someone else, you are involved.
-If you pass someone while they're typing caution, keep and maintain the position.
-Only use chat box to clarify on position


Mistakes from Rome:


-Seth slowed down before two drivers called caution
-Team APR Motorsports slowed down and partially blocked road, instead of being waved-by during wave-by lap
-skilla believed that a caution came out, and spent too long typing, and lost a lap while typing
-our caution was drawn out by chat box chatter, to a length of 6+ laps.
-DP restarted at back straight, half a lap too late.


Guys, I called the caution three laps after, because the circuit was unsafe, due to drivers blocking the road.


Lap 17: gwskilla calls for caution
Lap 18: Macospet1 refuses to call for caution
lap 19: gwskilla and tbwhhs go down a lap while believing that there was a caution
Lap 19: DP attempts to allow gwskilla and tbwhhs to pass, but gwskilla and tbwhhs do not accept the wave-by
lap 20: GT field (myself, Storm and a few others) run right through cars going way too slowly
Lap 21: Circuit deemed unsafe due to "general 🤬 chaos"
Lap 21: second call for caution is given
Lap 21: Caution OFFICIALLY comes out
Lap 22: DP and GT are caught up
Lap 22: GT cars from far back in the field continue to run full-throttle PAST the caution line, and illegally gain positions during caution
Lap 24: GT cars re-lined up
Lap 25: GT cars restart the race, DP cars restart race half a lap later.

I am getting off of work now.

 

[Downhill Dino]

It was actually worse then it sounds. But this is testing and tests are done to learn!

 

[polarbear345]

And for those who quit because of today:

Perhaps you missed the point of these races, to fix the problem we had... These optional races are to finalize specs, and work on cautions. Which is what's going on now. If you want to leave, do. But please pm me, so I can update the roster list.

See you all in 40 for nurburgring.

 

[ITCC_Andrew]

Well, it was pretty normal for me. I still managed to pull a win out of my rear. SOMEHOW. And, before you guys yak at me about the RX-8 being fast, it's really no faster than any other cars, because it's 🤬 in the corners.

 

[MOTORTRENDmitch]

Not to be harsh or anything...............Some people belong in Mario Kart.

 

[Downhill Dino]

@MrM: I noticed that, but I ended up killing my tires and list you.

@Mitch: Do you even have a Wii? 💡

 

[Cowboys965]

That awkward moment.

I just got back too.

 

[MOTORTRENDmitch]

@MrM: I noticed that, but I ended up killing my tires and list you.

@Mitch: Do you even have a Wii? 💡

Indeed I do. Never gets used anymore.. But I do.

 

[polarbear345]

Ahh, Mitch. That's who you are! (I was confused before)

I do think that tossing us in a street circuit was a good idea on paper... Well practice cautions! But we ended up praticing some other skills. Nurb. Should be better, as it is a actual circuit, and hopefully people will have learned.

 

[ITCC_Andrew]

@MrM: I noticed that, but I ended up killing my tires and list you.

You list me? Explain please... Otherwise, yeah, that caution, to sort out the some guys stopped in the middle of the track, some going 250 km/h problem did help a bit... Though, I did get shunted by lagfest17 and his British connection. But, whatever, that's what the plucky Brits do.

 

[hurleyman24]

Bro you want to play some mario kart with me now, awesome!

 

[MOTORTRENDmitch]

Meet you on there mannnn, then we can see who can make a Mii that best resembles Mr. Bean 8-)

I meant lost, sorry. Using my phone and auto correct and blah blah blah.

Just watch out for that blue spiked shell

 

[ITCC_Andrew]

You saw the worst Rolex race in history, and still came here and posted. 👍 you have a long temper fuse. Also, every OTHER Rolex race in this preseason and last season was a good close, clean, and fun battle. Don't go by that race. The beginning of Rome was great, but, that caution ruined the field, and there were only four in contention for the GT win, instead of 8.

 

[polarbear345]

Bro you want to play some mario kart with me now, awesome!

Oh hai!

But sorry for you seeing that disaster.. Last season we had maybe 1-2 crashes... No cautions. This was only our 3-4th caution we've done, so we're still learning.

Again guys, consider these try outs. If you are dirty on formation laps or caution laps, you may be kicked.
