This should be split or more options should be added so you can distinguish the answers from drivers with 3 pedals and drivers with 2 pedal

RallyX = Contact Racing, don't be afraid to chuck it up the inside and slide along someones door, a move deemed dangerous and stupid in circuit racing is pretty much fair game on RallyX

This doesn't mean wrecking is acceptable though!

Left foot braking, always have, bu I ride a motorbike in real life not drive a car!

Just got a G25 though, so left foot will be on the clutch, not the brake from now on!

Next one is an evil track, and this is an evil car, so should be an interesting race!

Just to let people know, Jack has relinquished control of the league to Storm Racing, so we will be taking over from now on, I would like to thank Jack for the idea of this league, which has proved popular amognst racers!

Quote from Primoz :FXR and XRR benefit from full thorttle start because they spin up the turbine and thus get more hp at start. We need the pop-corn back

I often get pop-corn in the fxr, but it happens due to over down-shifting, go on a straigh and change from 6th for 1st, I guarentee you will find moving after very difficult

He is right, under extreme circumstances, the olny effect on your vision is actually blackout or redout, (Blackout result of blood being pushed away from head - as when you feint) or redout when blood is forced into your head and the blood vessels in the eye expand (They don't actually burst)...

A white-out as when you sand up isn't actually anything to do with vision, it's your head ignoring the visual imputs as it's got confused as to where you are

Plus there are techniques to avoid blackouts that are used by pilots, and antiG suits can be worn, hey are many variables, but this isn't something that needs to be in a racing simulator, by the time you hit the point where G-Forces begin affecting you that much you will be unconcious!

Black and red outs only occur under pro-longed exposure to the situation, no corner will produce that much G-Force for long enough!

My wheel arrives tomorrow, but I now have a suspected broken wrist, so I can't use it for a while, how flaming annoying is that!

Points were only given for finish positions, no-one was given points (as Jack suggested during the race should happen)

So no points were given for no reason, just for finish positions!

Just to say Jacks driving on track is by no means a representation of the team, I was also driving in this race [SR]Thor and finished 2nd and I hope everyone know's I drive safe!

Jack's crashes will be looked into and if deemed necesary points shall be deducted from him!

I urge Jack to actually practice for the next event!!!!!!


After looking at past races and discussion within the team, the decision has been made to ask Jack to leave the team, unfortuenately an indivuals actions are reflecting poorly on a team which is a light hearted fun team, but we are a fair and safe team!

As for the future of this event, that is upto Jack, he has the choice to take complete control as he started the league, or I will take control of all aspects...

Current Standings After ROUND 2

Quote from BBO@BSR :
but if the car makes a flip in the BL chicane then they were just to fast. It's not the curb that makes the car flip, it's the driven line+the driver+the speed. It can happen at all tracks

Which is why it's allowed! If everyone wants it banned, as apparently thats why some people have retired, then it will be discussed on the server before race 3, the result of this vote will be the ruleing for the remainder of the season...

Space has always been allowed, and this was stated several times @ round 1, I personally would like to see it banned as it's more realistic, but @ blackwood it was just so easy to tip it on the chicane we decided to allow it!

Replays for both rounds are available on http://www.storm-racing.co.uk on the homepage

yes, Shift+S is DSQ, but space is allowed to reset the car on it's roof
