Quote from GreyBull [CHA] :

TBH Norbert showed some pace so far, although being slightly unconsistant, so who knows, if Norbi's already beaten him, he could perhaps also do well if he ever gets his chance in WTCC

Anyway, it's rather nice to see some people doing the move between simracing and real life racing, sometimes even at an international level

Michelisz is so fast over one lap in quallifying etc but isn't that consistant. Norbi beat him to the Hungarian Seat Championship in 07 iirc. There is many drivers who are better than him that aren't in WTCC. He done Seat Supercopa(Spain) and Eurocup last year and he only got 3rd in championship in Spain down to pure luck. Marc Carol, Oscar Nogues and Eoin Murray were better than him all year in Supercopa imo.

Nice, wanna see him in a F1 car :P

04 - Andy O'Brien - Sport - RB4 - IRL
05 - Niall Murray - Sport - RB4 - IRL

Portimão is unbelievable.. Was there last year and I have never witnessed a track like it. Supposedly over €200 million gone into it, and I would well believe it. Anyone considering it, go for it!

Typical, my luck lol. Now my friend Eoin is racing the Eurocup instead, so no Portimao, Oschersleben instead

Mondello

Haha :P

Quote from trebor901 :

But the SEAT cup is nothing to do wiht WTCC anymore and SEAT dont do the thing where they give the winner of the supercopa races a WTCC drive for the weekend

The supercopa never got the WTCC drive, the Eurocup got did. The highest points scorer over a weekend got a drive in wtcc. Thats gone now though, they have brought in prize money instead.

E:Sry for double post

Norbi raced Supercup which Eoin used to race, but he switched to eurocup because his team have two other drivers in Supercup and he didnt have any team mates in Supercup.. So yeah, Norbi Supercup(Spanish Championship), Eoin Eurocup(European)

A² Racing or A² Motorsport or smthn

3rd place starter Norbert Kiss claimed a dominant victory on the final race in Jarama, round two of the Spanish SEAT Leon Supercopa season. The Hungarian driver took the lead early and successfully pulled away from the opponents. György Kontra finished 18th.

Following the impressive performance showed by Norbert Kiss on the first two races he started the feature race on Sunday from third on the grid behind pole sitter David Saraiva and Pepe Oriola. It didn’t take long for Kiss to move up in the order as he got off the grid in a very good rhythm.

“It was faultless, frankly I’m happy that the launch control has been removed from the car because it was useless and now I can do perfect starts without it. I had a very good start and the guy who was on pole left a little bit of a space in Turn 1 where I could place my car and I was leading out of the corner,” said Norbert Kiss after the race.

Kiss then took control of the situation and started to pull away immediately from Saraiva. At the end of Lap 1 he was leading by 0.755 seconds and extended the gap to 1.385 over the course of the following lap. Then the Safety Car entered the circuit in the wake of an accident so the situation was effectively neutralized.

“They were falling behind on a regular basis. Even the Safety Car wasn’t a problem. [Saraiva] dropped way behind at the restart as I was accelerating out of the last corner. He didn’t have a chance to attack me and I could do nice stable laps over the rest of the race. I could pull away so it was great, very cool,” Kiss added.


Daniel Saraiva was a key element in Kiss’s success, as the Spanish driver was constantly 0.4-0.8 seconds slower than him but Saraiva was able to fend off the attacks coming from behind him for the majority of the race.

Zengő-Dension Team’s Norbert Kiss had more than 4 seconds of a margin when former SEAT Leon EuroCup champion Oscar Nogués could overtake Saravia for second and despite being significantly faster after getting through his opponent, he couldn’t close in on Kiss.

At the end of the 14th lap Kiss finally saw the checkered flag exactly 4.400 seconds ahead of Nogués after the Spanish driver was able to put in a lap that was faster by no more or less than 0.004 seconds. This indicates how valuable this victory is for Norbert Kiss who was joined by Nogués and Marc Carol on the podium.

“I didn’t even think that I would win or be fast enough to be competitive. I posted the fastest laptime on the third race and I was fastest in sector two and three, this is head and shoulders above the expectations,” Kiss summed up.

"We’ve changed the car since yesterday and it worked out quite well. I could drive the car smoothly in those long corners that caused problems yesterday. I would like to say thanks to Zoltán Zengő and the whole team for making it possible for me to be here and to the team for their hard work over the weekend, they’re really professional.”

Well done Norbi!

Nice to hear, though I'm not sure of which Server addresses is which in 500servers. The one that is untidy and all the rest, which is that? And will this effect Web hosting?

Quote from JVIONE :

and that is exactly why most MOS punks are banned from IHR

I was banned in a quite funny situation actually. Myself and Vule we're having a battle and we rubbed, then I let him back past. I then get a DT from an admin which was unnecessary and he kept on and on and on thinking he was some super respected FIA official. Unfortunately he isn't. I then said I'm leaving here before I get gray hair soon, and wahhaay Permanent ban. So yeah, clearly we aren't the punks, you guys are.

That's exactly why most sane people think you are an idiot

Boothy, twice in one day? Jeeze this is strange, but agreed once more!

Quote from boothy :

20,000+ players a week obviously think the answer is no...

Boothy this could be a first, but I fully agree with you. The people who feel LFS is dying, are the idiots that spend their time on the forum complaining instead of getting on and having some fun online.. Looking at LFS realistically, yes the numbers have dropped since the arrival of new sims.. People are way over hyping the new physics improvement and patch with Scirocco and Rockingham which means when it comes out, they wont be that bothered with it.

Vettel did have the wing since Friday.

Quote from mythdat :

Did anyone watch the BBC's post race forum? Very interesting going-ons there. Basically they discovered that in the three laps prior to the Webber/Vettel crash, Red Bull told Webber to turn his engine down, while they told Vettel to turn his up.

Suggesting more going on by Webber's responses in the press conference:

Q. Is there any reason why he had a jump on you on that particular lap?
MW: Hmm. Maybe.

Q. Did you come out of the previous corner a bit slower on that lap?
MW: Hmm. You guys need to dig more, somewhere else.


Also quite disappointing to see that Horner seems to be taking Vettel's side in this whole thing and blaming Webber. And Vettel's hand gestures after the incident were just embarrasing.

Yeah I seen that alright.. Quite annoying really the way their taking sides so early. Though Vettel is probably faster, I want Webber to beat him even more now!

Obviously different support center there and different approach to customer satisfaction

Approached them directly at their site and they were cool about it.

Had the same problem and got on to logitech and they sent me a G27.. Today I was bored, opened it up and cleaned it and works 100%
