:rolleyes:

It wasn't our fault :P

Quote from wOoOzZy :

Is there gonna be a round 3 post race write-up?

Yes, but everything is running a little later than planned due to Mark's unexpected absence :P.

Qualifying Results added to first post.

Quote from SilverArrows77 :

Btw, is Marks absence a planned one, or currently missing in action? (like i was lol)

He's back now, there was an issue with a lightning strike which blew his laptop up .

Yeah, I feel that going 3 abreast after T1 on lap one was a bit stupid - which ruined my race.

There will be a lot of protests and penalties going out, moreso from qualifying.

No mate, they haven't

As far as I know, the grid is full at the moment.

And yes David. Though I can't say officially that it is, I imagine it's real money.

Well it's not as if the winner will receive monopoly money :P

Quote from wOoOzZy :

Just watched the replay. Good race roby. Looks like you've gotten faster and more consistent now that you've got a wheel. Looked like you had that race in the bag if you didn't hit the grass.

Thanks mate, and yeah looks like I have :P Although I wasn't really pushing at all throughout the race, I just wanted to finish. I'll be pushing a lot harder in the 'real' race

I had an immense start! Perfect! Stayed in the lead until lap 34 then I had a bit of an 'off' coming out of T1 which allowed Adam to pass. I was doing well, knowing that Texas was on a two stop strategy, I let him catch me and didn't really push at all, then he budged me coming into chicane on lap 52. That cost me well over 15 seconds, I could have probably won otherwise :P

Sorry if this has been mentioned previously, but how can I downgrade back to Z? I didn't make a backup of it when I installed Z10

Thanks....

Funny idea, or even the RAC? Let's see if anyone can complete one lap in the damn car

Quote from thatguy :

I'm on patch Z10 so I can't upload hotlaps, but do I only need to provide a valid hotlap with my driver application?

Me too, but i've heard that it's easy to downgrade back to Z...

And yes I think you do only need to provide a valid hotlap with your driver application

Quote from Davidos93 :

Right then, i'm gonna have to rethink my entry then :P (No International A license, and 8 weeks whilst doing coursework and planning for exams to set a 103% hotlap, in a BF1 (I can do it in an FOX and an FBM and an FO8, but BF1 will be tricky)

But yeah, cya next year then, if thats what i need (unless you want help commentating, or making names for the corners? :P )

Just set a time at WE1, EASY!

Quote from TFalke55 :

he's still got one day to stay within the 7 days interval

Just a friendly reminder :P

Quote from dekojester :

What you see up a bit is close, but official calendar and rules will be out within the next 7 days, mostly after I sleep and catch up on other work.

*ahem*

Brilliant video! It's been great racing with you guys!

Quote from Storm_Cloud :

TC is not only a driver aid, it is a setup option. If you have to turn it off on exit of turns then you haven't set the diff or TC correctly.

Up to a point, I usually turn it off when coming out of a chicane, like at BL1. Normally the TC would kick in when bouncing over the kerb, but when TC is off, you end up coming out of the chicane with an extra 3/4mph. You only need to watch Pearcy's BL1 WR to see that.

But anyway, as long as you turn it off at the right time, the small amount of wheelspin that is generated gives the car more momentum and can make you faster.....

Boris and me turn TC off when coming out of every corner anyway lol...

Quote from TFalke55 :

deko is for BL1R he is the tie breaker in personal union

Boris! Pearcy! Lets boycott Onegp2009!

Quote from dekojester :

BL1R - Blackwood GP Rev
SO4R - South City Long Rev (This is also on LFSCART calendar and would be on the same weekend)
SO5 - South City Town Course (This is also on LFSCART calendar and would be on the same weekend)
FE3 - Fern Bay Gold
FE4 or FE4R - Fern Bay Black (FE4 is also on LFSCART calendar and would be on the same weekend)
AS3 or AS3R - Aston National (AS3 is also on LFSCART calendar and would be on the same weekend)
AS4 - Aston Historic
AS5 or AS5R - Aston Grand Prix
AS6 or AS6R - Aston Grand Touring
KY2R - Kyoto National Reversed (This is also on LFSCART calendar and would be on the same weekend)
KY3 - Kyoto GP Long
WE1 or WE1R - Westhill International (WE1R is also on LFSCART calendar and would be on the same weekend)

I think BL1, not BL1R (You've no idea how bad this track is to drive reversed, especially with fuel - everyone goes off at turn 4) Plus BL1 is a classic track, with lots of competition as pretty much everyone can get within 1.5 secs of WR.

All the other tracks seem fine, but I hate SO tracks lol

No TC just wouldn't work in LFS. The majority would spin in race due to the fact that we can't really feel the level of grip. We just sorta guess and hope it's there. Although like Paul said, it's good to turn it off at some corners and chicanes, like the final chicane at AS3 and the fast chicane at WE1 (My 2nd sector pb there is about 2 tenths under WR due to no TC )

BTW, how boring is LFS atm? lol
