Practising pff lame ^^ Luckily slipstream is set to real, otherwise we would all be bunched up after those uphills, going 8 wide in to the corner or something like that.

Bleagh... only my love of the tiny slow car could induce me to arise this early. The sun, she is not even up yet.

(friend request sent, btw)

 

[bongoplyr]

Disconnected from server just as the Citroen time trial was ending. UGH!

 

[Phouchg]

That was fun ^^ That last race really took a toll on my right shoulder though.. maybe too much FF..

 

[BrandonW77]

So, this happened......twice.

 

[daddyo845]

Oh my god that was awesome

 

[Phouchg]

Hahaha very impressed that you didn't flip it though ^^

 

[watermelon punch]

Wow I did a quick look at the replay and totally missed that!

Looks like it was exciting.

Lap 2 and lap 5. I think I brushed the ground with my door handle the second time. It cost me a position but I didn't care because I was laughing so hard.

I didn't know there was points involved, I probably should have spent less time trying to get two wheels in the air.

[Phouchg]

Wow so I won something? craaazy! Them slow cars are real fun to race, so intense and close all the time. ^^

 

[daddyo845]

Apparently @LongbowX doesn't think so

 

[LongbowX]

I just wasn't performing up to my standard... It wasn't about the quality of the races. I wasn't feeling good about myself, so why prolong that.

 

[BrandonW77]

While waiting for the first race to start I enjoyed some time with the fans.

 

[daddyo845]

Longbow, even when you don't think your doing good, you do better than me. I had one race with kling after you left where I performed quite well but that was probably a fluke.

 

[daddyo845]

How did you do that @BrandonW77

 

[BrandonW77]

It took some work but a $20 in the palm of the usher got me front row access.

At least you got some points!👍

I think my points were eliminated by the Limbo Stick!

OOPS


Fixed that! Sorry
I kept looking at that saying - shouldn't there be 13... And then finally gave up thinking about why.

 

[watermelon punch]

Oh and I just figured @LongbowX was in a bad mood this morning and got fed up.
Though I wondered why one would get fed up with the Carol, after doing the entire Suburu 360 race.

There were moments during that race that I wondered if I had forgotten & left the room at Damage Heavy... The Subaru 360 drives like it has damage all the time.

 

[daddyo845]

It was dat hill man.

 

[LongbowX]

I wasn't feeling it from the start of the races, but I decided to stick it out, see if I felt better (I gave myself until the 3rd race). I didn't, so I decided to pack it in. Nothing personal against the Carol.

 

[AudiMan2011]

I'll be able to make the Abarth Biposto endurance since I technically have a week off from Thursday whilst my college changes semesters.

 

[watermelon punch]

Yeah so after our test races, at @CC570's suggestion... at the Nurburgring... I have to say I was impressed at how fun it was.
I'm thinking I can do around an hour of that. 6 laps?

Certainly it should turn out to be the most orderly trip through Flugplatz ever seen.
The car hits the limiter a couple of times on the track - but usually only briefly, and it should actually make for closer racing as the draft won't be as much benefit with the limiter on the fast parts.

Also the most noticeable time it hit the limiter for me was after the peak of the hill heading down into the Aremburg right hand turn... which for some people (@daddyo845) might be a boon & cut down on the probability of a beached cars there.

I'm thinking maybe enforce 1 pit stop?

Discuss.

 

[daddyo845]

I really enjoyed racing the biposto on nurburgring. It was really fun. How would i prevent people going off on aremburg? Anyway km 9 to 11 is slow as always in low powered cars. It's agonizing .
