Just watched it and it was nice actually. The cameras were a bit dodgy and a few other mistakes but nice anyway.

Maybe you can ask the drivers how their name is pronounced? Some names are very tough but most of them are easy to learn. Can't really be a bad thing.

Boring?

Passed two cars in the last lap of the sprint race. Passed one car in the last lap of the main race. Other than that, it was very tough and I had to attack and defend all the time. Not good for the tyres, but I guess I was consistent enough to get two top5 finishes while I was clearly slower than most on flying laps.

Pretty nice races.

I didn't receive a PM.

There's no PM, use last round's info.

According to the server, tomorrow we'll race with the FOX at Blackwood. Not a bad idea if you ask me...

Hmm so there was an incident in the test race too? I wasn't there. Well I'd say things can only get better after that.

Don't mean to sound rude, but you already made your point mate. We all saw what happened, let the admins do their job now.

I watched the replay and there were accidents all over the field, won't be easy for the admins to come up with a decent decision. I'd be surprised if they didn't tought.

Quote from GreyBull [CHA] :

everybody recovered as they could, so I think that nobody on the back was 100% sure of his position.

Indeed. Specially at the chicane I was like "wth there are cars all over the place, what should I do?". As people stormed through the madness, you just go. Haven't seem the replay yet but I don't have a clue if I was even close to my original position when "green flag" was shouted.

He's probably drunk enough to have lost his phone and don't remember the way home.

Seriously now, hope he's just drunk really.

Just want to apologize to car #08 for the contact on T2 at around 1:16:15, saw you lost a lot of time. I thought you had already passed me before the corner, but you had not. Sorry again.

I lost my breath just by reading that.

Now that got me a bit worried. Tyre temperatures wise, how's it looking for the FXOs?

KY2 seems to be a lot more demanding than AS3 regarding that, think we'll have some rubber barbecue on this round.

I'm sure one of us will make him proud though... :P

Now let's not bother the admins and keep this thread clean.

Team Name: Sim Racing Society
Car Number: 09
Drivers:
C.Taylor [TAYLOR-MANIA] GBR
E.de Souza [de Souza] BRA
S.MacDonald [Mackie the Staggie] GBR

Who cares if it's a wall of text? Nicely written! Had a good time reading it, thanks.

Not a big deal, but is there any chance to type the points directly in the OP instead of attaching a pdf? Should be easier for everyone.

So, what happens if 10 thousand people start playing Crysis or whatever game is the most demanding these days? You need one very high end PC to run one of these. Are they buying 10k very high end PCs just for those games? Where are they keeping the PCs? What about the other games?

Note: I haven't read anything other than the posts here.

Quote from bunder9999 :

did SRS change setups? i don't see their server on the list...

Yup, it's set for the GTAL race. Maybe Michael will change it if you ask him nicely.

I'm pulling out, will have some classes on friday. Michael will edit his post later to delete my sign up (hopefully).

Have a good race guys.

Quote from Wilko868 :

The Airio incident was unfortunate, and we do apologise for it kicking people for no good reason.

That's cool, just a bit weird to be kicked from inactivity while driving, miss 6 minutes of the qualify AND be told to shut up after that.

Seriously now, it's really better to leave any insim stuff off or at least leave only the very necessary features on. And concerning the chatting, maybe a "chat = instant penalty" rule?

Qualifying 4th was better than expected.

2nd on the first race was much better than expected.

Driving in 5th on the second race was making me happy, untill I crashed and went down to 8th.

Gotta love the XRT+RB4 fights on this track.

Watching at Google at this moment... damn lag...

Agreed, but I'm sure nobody will change the side they drive on LFS forever because of this. When all the drivers use the same side, there's no point in forcing them to use the other. Being able to drive on the side it makes more sense to you is better.

I don't. If the league is amateur enough not to care about the camera advantage, why care about the driving side advantage?

Other than a possible faster car, there'll be rounds when all our drivers will be british (RHD) and rounds that the most of our drivers will be from places that use LHD. Doesn't make much sense to penalize some drivers for something that isn't their fault...

Oh well. It looked like you guys were building a strong team. This is not my business but how come 5 hours/day?? That can't be right.. it's a LFS team, not a worldwide corporation.

Anyways, good luck Tommy.

I guess the FZRs are still faster, or at least easier to drive. The XRRs (ours anyway) is quite consistent throught the stint and high 1:11s should be possible at some point. It's very likely to roll on some corners thought, so we have to balance things a bit and not push like crazy all the time. No idea about the FXRs.

We'll see, can't wait for the race! And stop blaming my setup!!
