Keep it coming!

I know it's early but does anyone have an idea on what cars you'll be driving?

:haha:

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.

Quote from zeugnimod :Maybe you were right after all.

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.

Bah, I hope South Africa wins against us now...

PS. I hope this gives USA the motivation to build a world-class team (you know you can). It's nice to have historic rivals playing, but it's nicer to have good football - and we're lacking in that area.

PPS. I'm afraid of the trumpets on the next match.

Quote from de Souza, on SRS' forum :It's over!

Got a weird double round this time, probably because I was driving paying attention to the Brazil vs. Italy game.
Qualified 11th wich was pretty bad, as I was almost a second behind my own pb.
On the first race I kept away from trouble and did a couple of overtakings, finishing 7th.
On the second race I started from second and actually crossed the first lap first! After that I had some contact with Yann and spun, rejoining in last. Still finished 8th, but could be better if it wasn't for some damage I picked on that incident - messed with the car balance.

All in all I got 3 more points, reaching 27. Considering I missed 4 races, it wasn't that bad for a midfielder.

Not sure I enjoyed this as much as you guys seemed to have enjoyed. The more I join quick races like these, the less I like them. But that's just me.

@Ramon: well deserved! Have been sharing the track with you with some regularity since the early Gentlefoot seasons, and it's always been a pleasure.

@Janne: not sure how you do those things, but that's no ordinary RB4! Awesome driving as well.

@rest: thanks for the season, it was pretty clean! Too bad too many people left mid-season but I guess that's inevitable. Was good to take part, even though it gets quite annoying when you have to read "fail" in every two phrases...

@admins: an ok work in general (it got much better through the season), but next time think your calendar throught to avoid having to change dates. Track selection was not ideal as well, and some rules just didn't made sense in the end (like why force me to edit my skin when in the last rounds it wasn't mandatory?). I'm sure next time it'll be very good though.

Heh, looks like an obvious Spain vs. Brazil final. Sounds good to me.

Gotta say this is most annoying crowd noise though.

Host not found, so again if you need practice you can join SRS:Race Server.

Edit: Oh well I'm with internet problems again, it's looking bad for this round.

Yup, that's the guy. Damn you, it was against my team!

Another one here.

Well no offense to USA but they're hardly a strong team, aren't they.

I'll agree on the 'motivating' part though, it's like they're playing because they're obligated too. So annoying.

I remember watching some practice sessions on a recent World Cup (I guess it was Korea/Japan's), with the first team playing against the reserves. It was always a tough match, but the second team was so much more fun to watch!

Can't even say that about the current team, even the reserves are crap - with a few exceptions like the forward Nilmar. He's much better than Pato imo.

Quote from zeugnimod :And I'm happy that it's Brazil vs. Italy on Sunday. Definately will watch that.

Heh, probably an ultra boring game. Not following the italian games but it's generally strong defense and poor attack. And well, this brazilian team is probably the weakest of the latest years, ~5 very good players mixed with a bunch of how-the-hell-did-that-guy-end-up-here players.

Good result for me, but there's still a long road ahead. Grats on the lead, Z.

After the qualify I was aiming at a top 10, considering I was much slower than anyone.

Had some luck on the sprint race and finished 6th.

Had a terrible feature race, was happy to see the checkered flag. Finished 9th.

In the meantime you can join SRS:Race Server for practice.

Bump!

Don't know if people suddenly lost interest on this or just forgot it... Anyway, Space Shuttle Endeavour will be launching in a week (June 13).

Full launching schedule is here.

There's a brazilian ship at the area searching for survivors and then anything else. Since the area is massive, this will take a while. Another four ships will arrive eventually.

Anyone has any other informations?

On a side note, Air France said it would announce the names of everyone that was on the plane today (4th June).

Quote from Joe93 :but it could be a drug trafficing plane? nobody would report that missing?

I doubt something like that could reach the same altitudes as a modern long-range airliner.
