If you could make up the VRR Super GT schedule, what 9 venues would you choose?

I have 11 places to make up in the Subaru championship. Safe for me to say if something like what occurred last night happens again, I'm not budging. Not my fault that some people have internet that with compatibility issues. That said, Bathurst practice is starting early and it's starting vigorous.

But back to sleep for now, don't know what I'm doing up in the first place.

I'll tell you something you probably want to hear.

I'm missing next week's races.

Hopefully the lobby will be smooth as silk by then.

No I don't want to hear that. I want you to race, please don't think otherwise. It's just extremely frustrating when internet problems get in the way of having fun.

As much as I want to race for the sake of keeping in points range in the Super GT series, I actually have to go out with family next weekend, so I really have no choice in the matter.

Look, I have no problems making way for others if my connection happens to drop to **** when we need it to work the most, it's crap to begin with, I know that for a fact. No one wants to get in the way of others having fun, least of all me. If you would have just stuck around just a bit longer earlier in STCC, I would have dropped out so you guys could proceed with the race, because as far as I'm concerned, I'm not challenging for the championship on that one.

But you are second in the STCC championship. That doesn't make sense.
 
No worries with what happened at Apricot, I'm sick. At that point in time I was not going to be able to eat and get to bed at a reasonable time so my health kind of took priority there. It just wasn't worth sticking around for at that stage.

It only looks close because I've won two STCC races so far and Bambi didn't even race in Okayama, but with the races I'm bound to miss in the next couple of months, it makes less sense for me to keep racing at the expense of others who would be better suited to chasing for points.
 
In an effort to boost grid numbers maybe consider moving the series back to its original time? We moved it because we couldn't even hold a lobby up at then, which has been remedied (for the most part), and that move caused many people to have to drop out of the series. I think that of the people we lost with that switch are willing to return racing then going back to that start time is a good idea.

Epic race between @AudiMan2011 and @Antares26 at Indy yesterday, looked like a lot of fun and I can't wait to watch the replay of that.

Possibly. I wouldn't do so until we get to the next break (which is after this upcoming race weekend) so that way we can adequately gather opinions on if we would benefit and if that timeslot is safe to use again.

How about some of us do an open test in the break at the original time slot to see if it's safe to return to in a practical way?

I'd probably have a bit of difficulty waking up at 1AM Sundays again for that, but if I manage to get it done, count me in on that test.

I thought Suzuka's rain wasn't that bad, and surely we wouldn't be racing on intermediates when it's fully wet at Monza.

I was scared of hitting the tire wall when I did that. Great shots as usual @Whitetail.

On the run up to the first corner, I was looking behind and I was looking for that other Lexus, I thought something happened cause I could only see Nas behind.

I had no idea you were there at all, only when the sled wasn't turning in at the braking point did I figure out you were on the bottom. It scared me a lot cause I had to come in wide and I didn't have time to look if Nas was coming in on the inside as well.

I knew I had to attack the sled before it could get to straights. I was just happy it worked with nobody wrecking. My off on early in the race just makes it worse as I had a good car once some of the gas in the tank went away.

The Lexus had a lot of edge over the sled from the start of S2 all the way up to the tight S, at least half a second I'd even say, but even if I managed to pass it when it went wide on the penultimate corner, it would just kill me more because it had draft to add to its Mercedes-power.

Now I'm trying to find out how in the world I can match that in the next few races, 'cause the tracks are not gonna be pretty for the JAF GT300s.

Sliverstone and Nirburgring are our best chances at winning with the races left. Red Bull Ring is a toss up. The best bet of passing the Mercedes at Indy was in the S1 and trying to build a gap big enough to hold it off on the straight.

True, especially Nurburgring.

With what I've tested at Monza so far, the biggest chance to go at the Mercedes is if the race distance is long enough to run over a full tank.

Yeah it's going to fun as usual. I think it should be fun if we can try to get in front of the Mercedes.
