Yeah... But then again there were cars everywhere, I don't think after 20 minutes or so you could do a clean lap at all. And I didn't see or hear about any accident, which is quite impressive and just shows how good (fast or not) these guys are.

The speed difference was really scary, I found it hard to judge as I came near the T1 braking zone and there was slower cars braking - you come so fast and show a nose, but in the end they brake a lot later and the cornering speed is more similar than you'd expect, so it was usually safer to pass after the corner.

Quite nice to storm through the s/f straight with all those slower cars battling.

Good to see people enjoyed it.

Gotta think about next year, will be hard to do something different again.

Good stuff, my race was going quite nice, could've finished from 3rd to 5th, as me, bean0 and EliteAti were close all the time.

Did one mistake at the middle of the race that cost me the 3rd place, but was around 1-2 seconds behind bean0 and catching up (I think).

Was really really hoping for a fight but then the power went down. Pretty insane as I'm using a notebook plugged on a 19'' monitor - everything was ok, but the monitor suddenly died... I thought "oh noes hope I didn't take anyone out with me", but the router died too obviously and I timed out.

Anyway thanks for coming everyone, there's more next year. And thanks J@tko for taking care of the children.

Well had the same problem yesterday (lack of internets), seems ok now.

Anyway, updated the OP and I'm glad to say we have 8 confirmed teams to race Sunday. Still considering some other options as of now, but 24 cars seem to be a very good number in that short track.

Most of the teams have line ups now, go check to see who you're racing against. There's still time to try to get in by the way.

Quote from S14 DRIFT :Knowing

Worst last 15 minutes ever. By far.

Apart from that, I thought it was pretty enjoyable. That aircraft scene was simply breathtaking.

Quote from de Souza :If those teams don't answer, I'll open their spots for others.

Ok we have two extra free spots. One of them will be granted to a second Concept team, the other will join the public spots.

There's still time if you want to take part, just post here. I'll set another deadline for Wednesday - the day we'll decide who goes in and who doesn't.

I'm still waiting for the line ups, you know.

Thanks.

I still have a couple of invites pending answer, gonna set a deadline for friday. If those teams don't answer, I'll open their spots for others.

I'll keep a list of interested teams in the OP as well.

You mean we?

That's how it works: you (whoever that is) tell me you want to race with team x (and its drivers); I tell you if you can race or not.

Should have post this yesterday but forgot...

Quote from DeadWolfBones :Man, that second goal was gorgeous.



Funny how similar it was to the brazilian goal on the first game against US... when Beasley let the ball through after the corner.

At the moment I noticed we lost the ball and the counter attack was coming, I was cheering for you to score.

What... you just announced a driver and asked to race in our event!

Doesn't make much sense if you ask me, but then again I don't know what's going on behind the scenes.

On a side note: grats USA, well played!

And now we'll have to keep the stupidest coach ever. Crap.

That was insane. It sucks that South Africa's team is nowhere near the stronger teams, but they do run a lot don't they!

Getting ready for the final now.

Quote from GreyBull [CHA] :That sounds really nice, and I'd be happy to take part if I have the opportunity

Quote from oldnavy :uh, looks nice, but not much chanches to get invitation

Stay around, there will be free spots. Right now we're giving priority to the invited teams but as soon as we have a better idea of how many teams we got, we'll ask for people to sign in.

It's generally a good idea to say your team is officially interested - makes our work easier as well.

Quote from niels1 :Nice Idea, as said in pm I get back to you asap. Cheers for inviting RSR.

Our pleasure!
Sim Racing Society Birthday Celebration!

G'day ladies and gentlemen!

This is an almost-invite-only fun teams challenge race to celebrate SRS' first birthday. We'll invite some teams that we enjoy racing with, and as they confirm their participation (or not) we'll open a few spots for other people to sign in.



So this is how it will work:

- 1 hour race at Aston Club Rev to be held on July 18th, at SRS:Race Server
- each team will have to drive one STD car, one TBO car and one LRF car;
- wanted: 10 teams with 3 cars each = 30 drivers on track;
- points will be distributed as 10, 8, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 for each class;
- the team with most points summing all classes will win an official "congratulations" from us.



Schedule (estimated times):

18:00 UTC - 25 min qualify
18:30 UTC - 1 hour race



Traffic guidelines...

- Cars being lapped must stay on racing line! It is the faster cars' responsibility to do a clean pass maneuver.
- If a car that is lapping you makes an passing attempt, do not defend.
- Use common sense!



Some other points...

- The FXO will have 3% intake restriction. Any other car should be used without any restrictions. If someone proves that a car must have some handicap to be balanced, we'll be happy to force it.
- Wasn't invited but want to race? Post here.
- Wanna join but don't have a team or your team doesn't want to join? You can create a fantasy team to drive this event, but as I said, there aren't many spots for non-invited teams.
- If there's more interest than free spots, we might pick at random.
- We reserve the right to not allow specific drivers to race, just because.



Well, that's it. If you're confirming your team participation, we'd like to know the line up and what car you guys are using if possible (not obligatory though). If you're in the non-invited lot and want to take part, please post here.

How motivated they were tonight?

You gotta be kidding me.

After 80min of non-football, our coach takes the best player out and puts someone that doesn't even play on that side.

And he scores on his first play.
