These have all been exceptionally good, how much time do you spend tinkering afterwards or do you manage to get them to that level straight from GT?

Really Depends, 15-25min :)👍 But all these have been editing, Removed watermarks, Fixing some jagged edges as little other things 👍 Some of them came right out of GT5, The GTS-R Viper, and The Ford GT Spec II as the Peugeot 908 in the background, That wasn't really edited except for watermark removal.
 
Points and penalties Daytona 2H

Lap 6 - Chozza_32 - richy - avoidable contact - 1 min
Lap 18 - TheKitten - memto - driving standards - warning
Lap 19 - redbullrider20 - driving standards - warning



1) Chozza_32, Pretty straight forwards, just ran into the back of GT car whilst trying to over take

2) TheKitten, I understand that its only your second race in WEC, but there were a few complaints received about placement of your car on track, it is wise to stay to one side of the track so that it is clear to the fast cars what you are going to do, this does not mean pulling over and letting them through but just makes it easier for LMP to overtake, there were a few times when myself and others came up behind you and had no idea which way you were going to go. Its nothing to worry about just something to keep in mind for the next race.

3) Redbull, The incident with nin-chin is only minor, but does warrant a mention. Even though you were under pressure, when there's another car around you need to make sure that your actions are clear and predictable. Braking on the apex of a flat out corner was potentially dangerous and could have ended your and nin-chins race. Same as kitten just something to think about.

Yes, I do remember that incident and I'm very sorry. I didn't notice a Yellow R8 LMP was behind. I spun off and I wanted to get the dirt off my tires. Then I relised that there was a lmp. As I stopped swerving to let him pass. The braking incident was my fault. I took my line and I noticed red bull braked tad earlier which made me go tad later. which made me go in the inside . Mb on the incidents.

Its alright mate, in the WEC we really try to make better racing drivers as this makes for better racing, so we try by having a rather in depth debrief after the races where we can see things that could do with improvement (and this does include the stewards lol we are not prefect by any stretch of the imagination)

I completly understand :), I wonder if the highlights. Will cover my jump on Lap 27 :lol:

My car couldn't take that curve at full speed (weird) so I had to let off going into the corner. In this instance, with nin-chin wanting to eat me for supper, I forgot to let off going in so naturally (to me that is) I got on the brakes to compensate and not fly off the track. I do, however, understand your concerns and I will improve my driving standards to prevent such incidents from happening.

If GT traffic is gonna move around and lift off and then move back on line then of course i'm going to run into them.

The gt traffic doesn't do anything wrong, they can't get through that corner in the same way an lmp can and he stays on the same line just slightly under steers through it but by that point you were about to hit anyway so you can't blame the gt traffic for that one at all.
 
If I recall didn't Zovo pass redbull in the last 3laps to take 4th.

ah thank you ninners, nice to know someones on the ball :P, i shall change that now, the move was lucky though lol was on the last turn of the last lap (since they were a lap down)

Was it the last turn?? Well what can I say throwing positions away is my specialty. :sly:

Haha yea he gets you going into the bus stop on the last lap and you were on the prime position to take him on the run out but you slide just enough to lose momentum and lose the draft to the line
