Lol I completely forgot this, didn't even practice. Still got 2nd in qualify... illepall

The combo was Taha's idea.

Thanks everyone for joining, I hope you had as much fun as I did. Thanks a lot to the NDR guys for helping out with the server, much appreciated.

That being said, f*** those races were great! At the sprint I got bumped by Taha but in the end I was able to climb to the position I was, so no big deal. It would be impossible to catch the other guys anyway, some really fast guys in there.

Feature race was even better. For the first laps it was all madness, had some 3-wide moments and there were cars everywhere. After the grid spread I could push a little harder and gain some positions.
But then there was this bloody RB4 driven by DeXteRpl. Had a really hard time catching him (while trying to pull away from sanderman), and made it after he did some tyre bowling at the chicane. We kept changing positions for 3 or 4 laps, but he won it at the end.
Then Ricou came and passed me aswell, and there was nothing more I could do.

Congrats for Rudy, very impressive pace. And to those who finished in the podium - I think it was Gener_AL and dennis. Sorry if it wasn't. :P

Will run the stats later, I need some break now.

Is it too late to join?

Quote from Rudy van Buren :

if there is place i might show up

Quote from go_carter :

I'll try to be there. Hope I can

Welcome!

Funny how people use others' work as it was theirs. I mean the logos/team names, did you even check that grid website?

Well good luck with it.

Just wanted to tell that the server FRO|FormulaRacing|NDR is already set, thanks to deko and NDR.

Tomorrow I'll send passwords via PM, see you there.

Where did that red car come from?

Welcome.

Quote from Mackie The Staggie :

I'm doing the TBO so I'm in the 1:26 -1:27 on the RB4, about 4 seconds off WR pace. As I said I'm woefully off pace.

Don't care too much about raw pace, it will be about dealing with traffic.

Edit: by the way any specific guideline about traffic? Like "blue flag = move", or "TBOs have the right of the racing line"?

Quote from LFSn00b :

Well, I don't want souza to be alone in the TBO class...

Meh my setup for this race is all messed up, I don't know what happened... I don't have high hopes for this one.

Quote from zeugnimod :

I might join with RB4 if there are at least 5 cars in the TBO class. Don't want to drive alone.

There's one already.

Too early?

Team Name: Sim Racing Society

Quote from J@tko :

Touring Class:
De Souza with 12 point lead. 1 point seperates 2-4

I wish. (that's my teammate). For some reason things are working again, let's see for how long. 3 podiums in the last 3 races, I hope I can keep that shape and get closer to the leaders.

@Z: did you spin on the banana I dropped?

Sounds good, I'll probably participate. Saturday would be better though.

Oh and since you're talking about the restrictions, probably the MoE ones fit better. By the way I think GT2 cars should be a bit heavier as well, but that's just me... not that I will drive them anyway.

@GreyBull [CHA]: two hours is piece of cake! Try doing a 16h event with only 2 drivers...

Quote from S14 DRIFT :

Personally, if someone meant an appology, they'd type it themselves, rather than hitting F1 and continuing onwards, regardless of what position that may have put you in (i.e off the track and in the barrier lol).

In my case typing anything would mean going straight ahead without any control, because of kb+mouse driving. So I don't have much choice.

Also sometimes - specially in leagues - I don't even apologize. If it was a bad crash I just wait for the guy to recover and resume his race in front of me again. Then at the end of the race or later in the forum I'll tell him I'm sorry.

In the end I think saying sorry doesn't change much. Some people just hit F1 or whatever and keep racing like nothing happened, doing the same thing later or gaining unfair advantage. I mean, why bother...

Funny, half the grid qualified with slicks under treacherous rain and spray, including Mr. Ford and Mr. Aguilar. *points and laughs*

Quote from zeugnimod :

It was never stated that it was my fault.

I know it was.

Quote from Toddshooter :

Hey M8

Just an update on the server. RSR would gladly have you on our server if you need it.
Just let us know if and when you need it and we will set you up with a password for the event.
Just don't give it to Deko he's a menace and he'll try to boss everybody around.

Hahah, awesome.

Thanks a lot mister, I think I'll have it as a backup. Since Deko and Jack said it's ok to use theirs and kindly offered it, no reason to refuse it now (we'll see about this "boss" stuff though). But yeah, if we have any problem we could use something more radical.

Patrik you wrecker!! A crash and a driver error in 3 laps, sigh...

Well at least I'm scoring points again. :|

Hmm... seems to be working fine right now.

Quote from Inouva :

It whould be nice if someon can host a server with that car/track combo for the entirely week to start practices with all , and make it privated and send the pws via pm

Quote from de Souza :

Note: You can already practice that combo at [DR] Train Server 2 (thanks TysCaargh and DR!)

Wow close qualify. Now I'll do 5 laps on the race and explode my car again...

And at least you know who your teammate is.

Poor zeug, nobody likes him..
