phew!
i came very close to having to use it but i was lucky and caught the roll, i thought as i was going over that it was 'race over' cos i didnt know you could space bar reset at that point. Cheers

well, they manage to tax tobacco which comes from a seed, and VAT is added to fruit and veg, and flowers and plants that you buy from the garden centre, and also, funnily enough, tax is also added to, guess what... seeds that you buy there too! So i dont think your arguement really holds any water there does it! In fact, you can buy hemp seed as fish bait already in the UK, and amazingly, it has tax added on it LOL
Im guessing that you are a user yourself, nuff said really
Anyway, we're not in this thread to discuss whether it should be legal or not, it isnt, thats that!
resetting mid race?
I dont want to cause a row, but if a driver turns onto their roofs, i know they arent allowed to shift S, but can the space bar reset be used? It says in the rules that "if you are stuck, you must spectate for the rest of that race" but it only refers to shift S and not the space bar reset?
Division 1 sprint race
Cars involved Mike and me
Lap number 4
What happened (Brief description) from your point of view.
I was heading along the short stretch between the chicane and the final turn. Mike came from behind and repeatedly nudged my back end, i have a slight fishtail to correct thanks to this contact which scrubs off speed. Mike comes up the inside and takes the position. Seemed to be that as a result of the easily avoidable contact i lost speed which Mike capitalised on and overtook?

almost the same as the first one!
Division 1 sprint race
Cars involved nacnac and me
Lap number 2 i think
What happened (Brief description) from your point of view.
I was very close behind nacnac. He made a big mistake in the chicane before the final turn and went way off wide through the cones and onto the grass. He went accross the grass without lifting and rejoined infront of me braking at a much slower pace than you would normally be forcing me to brake harder than normal to avoid a crash. This allowed Chris to come up the inside and overtake me easily as my pace up the straight was much slower than normal. From my point of view a clear use of nacnac cutting to hold on to a place added with him then rejoining and causing me to slow down losing me a place.

in general a good set of races for me, i still cant quite believe im in division 1 when i am over a second a lap slower than the entire rest of the field, but hey ho there we go! I was a bit unlucky on lap 1 of the feature race as i had two accidents right infront of me that i had to brake for which allowed all those who didnt brake for the accidents to go past.
In the sprint i was compromised twice by people going off and rejoining at a slower pace right infront of me, allowing more people to pass again, then i 'almost' rolled it and was instantly in last place again. No room for errors in div 1!

div 2 fun practice races tonight
just wanted to say thanks/sorry (delete as appropriate) for the fun tonight
there were a couple of wreckers in our midst though who spoiled the last race for me big style. LV drift was driving the wrong way around the track and crashed into me on purpose

nice one mate
just a tip about your skins though, the yellow and blue blocks you have on the sides of the cars dont look all that good. You need to look at the shape of the car and break them up so they look more realistic.
More like this and the attached UF1 i did

1.3 megapixel cannon effort in new zealand
these are called binaural recordings, basicly they use a microphone which is the same shape and size as a human head, and then put microphones where your eardrums should be. The idea being to completely replicate the depth that you can perceive in real life.
It works very well, especially if you have a good recording and a good pair of earphones. You can buy CDs recorded in binaural sound because the experience of listening to them, is like actually being there

thanks for clearing it up guys
regarding cutting, it is one of those things that racers do which really drops the realism of the racing down a notch, even wheels on the grass should be discouraged i reckon.
How do i go about using these files posted up? Will they permanently change the layouts in the single player version so ill need to back up the originals?

Round 2 and cutting
With the next rounds being at Fern Bay Club, there is often alot of cutting at these tracks, at the first chicane after T1 and the second chicane prior to the main straight. How are you going to prevent this? Bigger barriers etc?
It would be useful to know if there will be any barricade reinforcements asap as they can affect the way in why you practice. What might be ok now, with one wheel on the grass and one on the road, may not be possible in the race and may affect setups and lines etc.

i find it slightly offensive that someone is allowed to post a skin promoting an illegal drug, no matter how 'soft' it is seen by some (soon to be schizophrenic) users 
thanks for looking at these Dru, i was pretty sure that it was just a genuine mistake and you have confirmed it
roll on race 2

pit board option
For an extra dose of realism...
an option to remove all the timing information and have any essential race info on a pitboard hung over the pit wall as you lap it?
would be great in the races with the clubman style cars that dont tend to have car-pit intercoms in RL?

thanks to everyone who made stcc what it was
but onwards and upwards, i enjoy racing on many other severs as well as stcc, and for one will enjoy the ability to drive some cars other than the FXO, UF1 and XFG in a decent and clean race

Division 1
Race 2
Lap 1
What happened -
i was in P2 and went a little wide at the 'roundabout corner' due to being passed on the turn-in for the corner by another driver. Nothing wrong with that, but another driver, Fusion: Kaw, came up the inside of the corner very fast, drifted wide, and as i was coming round the corner with very little room to manouver, Fusion: Kaw (who was still only just overlapping me) hit my left rear quarter with his front right, which spun me from 2nd place all the way down to 14th. An honest mistake im sure, but it still seemed like a mistake that should not have happened and it totally removed any advantage that a reverse grid may have given me, and seemed a bit 'gung-ho'

Division 1
Race 1
Lap (cant recall exactly, within the first 3 i think)
Persons - Many!
What happened -
yellow flag displayed at entrance to chicane section after the high speed section. I brake and avoid the crashing cars. Following cars did not heed the yellow flag and clearly tried to negotiate through the mele without losing speed, contacted other cars and eventually caused my own team mate Moose to be spun round and hit me into the wall. This was not Moose fault but the incident was made worse by drivers trying to benefit from the cars that obeyed the rules of the yellow flag and slowed down.

great skin colours, but i hate those 'dont deliberately ram me' messages on the rear of cars 
im afraid useless threads like these, posted in the wrong place, are a good reason to 'bash' someone on any forum
i like the idea of using passengers as has been suggested
the full length video is nice mate, nice editing too
