Zero Cup

[WarriusZero]

How many are we expecting for tomorrow?

Note: The time is now 8pm BST instead of 8pm GMT, i.e. I believe 1 hour earlier (or back to the usual time) for North America.

 

[xeronima]

I'm planning to participate

 

[hainuinimic]

I'l probably be there

 

[Sparkz_360]

I will make it.

 

[drandiiski]

I’m not sure if I’ll participate. Have a bit of a neck/back pains and will see how I feel later.

 

[John Wells]

Ill be there.

 

[MrWhite1972]

il be there.....hope to get more than 62.23% of game time this week

 

[John Wells]

Excellent last race MrWhite Drex, great battle through out:tup:

 

[amarynceos]

Good racing today. I especially enjoyed the fight with @hainuinimic -- I think it would have gone to the flag if you hadn't gone off there, as I totally wrecked my left front trying to get by you. Good stuff!

The rain at Silverstone was a lot of fun, too. It was strange having to feather it at Aintree!!

Yes, very good racing John, Drex

I was expecting to lose my connection at any time hope the ps3 problems have gone away now.

Car bought and oiled for next week

 

[WarriusZero]

Here are the results, confirming that @LongbowX indeed wins at Silverstone and that El_Rossy picks up a one place penalty for going too wide at Copse too many times without lifting.

I hope many can be around for the Merc, it's so much fun to drift...

 

[WarriusZero]

Bad news. I won't be able to host the Zero Cup on the 13th April because of work. The calendar will be updated shortly.

 

[tarnheld]

Hi! I like to join the fun today!

Yes, i have read both the RULE BOOK and the OLR.
I raced in the Makeshift Shuffle Club before, i try my best to race clean and not spoil the fun and enjoyment of others.
Yes, my PS3 is connected via ethernet to the router.

 

[WarriusZero]

I've seen you being quite involved with @watermelon punch so I know you'll make a fine recruit.
I'll send you the club invitation in a minute.

 

[WarriusZero]

Well done guys.

It wasn't great for me. For the first 2 races, I had a sticky brake pedal which was extremely annoying. So I removed my spongy stickers for the last race, but then I had pretty much a stock brake pedal with no feeling of progression so in the wet, it was just unplayable. That and the fact I'm pants in the rain.

Whoever came up with that random weather idea.....

EDIT: the result of race 2 has been reviewed. It's been brought to my attention an incident in lap 1, where a car made quite a desperate move, which resulted in a number of other cars to be penalised. Sorry but @Sparkz_360 , your move on me looked a bit rookie-like. I wasn't the one who suffered the most but you definitely got an advantage out of it. I've come up with a one place penalty.

 

[tarnheld]

Great races, great fun! The Benz was a sublime drive, always on the edge, not the usual sluggish heavyweight. Last race was challenging, i've never done a longer rain race. Looking forward to the next event! :tup:

 

[amarynceos]

Good races today, just didn't have the pace to keep up. The last race was both fun and terrifying, and it was gratifying to actually see @LongbowX 's car at the end -- or at least the cloud of spray where it was.

Approaching Paddock Hill Bend when totally blinded from spray is really an experience.

 

[drandiiski]

Oh wow... I’m a complete idiot it seems. I was left with the impression that this week race was canceled due to WZ not being able to host it. Turns out it was next week one…

 

[WarriusZero]

Are you guys going to try to meet for a bit of racing, next week?

 

[xeronima]

Any one up for a run in an hour?
Suggestion.
BMW m3 csl
Suzuka
Matterhorn
Sikverstone

 

[WarriusZero]

Looks like the 22B is likely going to be my last drive on the Gran Turismo series for a while...

Do you want to do something special for the last evening? More than 3 races, for example?
I'm open for suggestions.

 

[tarnheld]

Seems like it's over before it really started for me. Thanks for hosting, @WarriusZero! 👍

I would suggest a poll between some of the coolest cars raced in the Zero Cup, maybe pre-selected from you, and do the last/extra race(s) in the winner car. What do you think?

But who knows, Project CARS might be delayed again...

 

[WarriusZero]

The car is already picked, I don't think we need any more. What we can do is race for a bit longer besides the 3 tracks already picked.

 

[CTR Driver]

Might I suggest a track vote, using your random weather algorithm? It worked fairly well when I used it. The scooby should be more than capable on most tracks. It would depend on how tight your time is.

 

[Cu3e]

Aww... Looks like I am gonna miss the last race

Gonna be out of town all week next week...

Thanks for hosting and some memorable battles and good luck on the other side @WarriusZero 👍

 

[drandiiski]

I’m happy with whatever you choose.

Looks like I’m going to get Project CARS for the PS4, because my PC just can’t run it smooth enough. So I’ll be happy to race again with you guys even though I’ll be using the DS4 for the time being.

 

[John Wells]

Our last race

Thanks for hosting:tup:

 

[drandiiski]

BTW WZ said the 22B. That means we have three more events right?

 

[WarriusZero]

Yes, 3 more. 👍

 

[drandiiski]

I’ll be there tonight. Again forgot to register yesterday when I did a quick practice session…
