Also has anyone ever seen Top Gear? (Despite the flags next to the names, i don;t know wether you can get it where you live) I'm a bit like Richard Hammond (small, and fairly quick) crossed with James May (i let people past too easily for fear of taking them out :P )

I've got the agility of Clarkson, handle great speeds like Hammond and I've got the speed of James May

Quote from tenmantaylor :

I cant make race this week, got a busy social weekend coming up as will probably be the case for 50% or so of the remaining races.

Id be able make all races if they were sun-thurs evenings.

Pop a message to Hibex and Maissi to remind them to confirm if the don't remember by now !

Nice, we've got Kent Police Liveries

They're proper Traffic Cop skins


Edit: This combo is gonna be tough :S I've just about worked out how to get round the first corner, but i'm gonna need to practice a loooot more :S

Edit2: Sorry to sound like a noob, but i'm new to this, and was wondering, whats a fast lap around KY2R BF1? Because i'm getting better now, and i'm averaging Low 1:20's, and was just wondering what i should be aiming for.

I see that silver arrows has a time of 1:19, and i'm gonna check some others, then go work on my lines and braking and accelerating points.

Check WR times on LFSW

Good idea :P

Quote from SilverArrows77 :

If there are no issues with it (and if it helps get gridsizes up), i may be able to race in this round if my connection is sorted out in time, if not it would be for next round.

Ill just enter as an individual racer (not as airattack) if i do race so as not to have any influence of team standings. Car livery in image below (to be updated with onegp logos on rear of rear wing and on front wings)

I'd do the same, if deko agrees... but if he wants me to do the Safety Car, I'd do that also!

@Silver and Falke

robybobey might be keen to have a teammate...he's got one open, it appears. I'm cool with any of them.

Also, still waiting on confirmation from FRO...I'll go try to find Hibex tommorow and bug him. 11 so far, not counting Silver, Falke, or FRO.

W00t !

Also, 1GP server is kinda down (at least it was 12 hours ago...Mazar's 500Servers account is suspended. But, I've got the FRO|FormulaRacing|CART back up and with KY2R loaded.

Hah. The first time I read it I thought you said "find Hibex tomorrow and hug him".

And it's looking like this'll be the largest grid sense KY2 in round 1. Hope all goes well for everyone.

I hope theres massive carnage so i can do something...

Somehow I dont see Bernd Maylander uttering that when leading out the medical car

No, but I can imagine Charlie having to say "Hey, Bernd ! Wake up ! You need to lap for a bit !"

Lol, don't worry guys, i've promised hyntty some good highlights you too pearcy, i have a habit of trying to sling one up the inside of the first turn, but i'll try not too :P

I'm gonna hazard a guess that i'm gonna be the first one who the safety car comes out for, either because i've caused a "Racing Incedent" (completely legal :P ) or because i've plowed head on into the wall at T1 on lap 39 because of a virus pop up :P

:slap::cat3:

BTW why does it suck to be me? Everyone else gets to race but poor old me... :sour:

Because.... YOU SUCK!





/ Joke (maybe)

1stBFA will also drive!

At the moment we think, our drivers for this event are:

7: Jeanot Naehring (dislozierter)
8: Christian Barnick (majorchrille)

Plleeeeassse don't. It really sucks to get knocked out on lap1/turn1.

All I can say is that most people will be defending that inside line for t1. If you do try to make a move that you're not 100% sure you can pull off it'll probably end up with you and probably a few other people out of the race. And that's a bad first impresion if there ever was one.

I know guys, i was kidding :P

It depends on the track, but after giving AI's headstarts then trying to overtake them into T1, i've realised that its not a great overtaking spot. If you get a good line through Turn 1, then Turn 2 can be an overtaking spot, it just depends how tight you wanna take it, but that puts you off the racing line for the next turn :/

If it comes a SC, what car will it be? And when comes the SC? when someone stands on the track and cant move? And if the SC is out, are you allow to drive as fast as you want to the box, or do you have to drive slowly? And are you allow to lapping one, while the SC is out?

When the SC is deployed, there is a car in an unsafe position on the course. For example, someone's upside down, or stuck in the gravel. I apply how Charlie Whiting or other real-life race directors would call it out.

Once it's deployed, you're supposed to catch up to the SC quickly. Keep in mind that you may need to slow down very far on the way to catch up.

Pitlane remains opened during SC periods from deployment to green flag.

Once the SC is deployed, no overtaking is permitted. You can pass a car going significantly slower, but if you spin, you stay where you rejoin - no regaining position.

Hope this helps.

cool, so i take it alot of people make pitstops when the sc is out?

Is it compulsory pitstop? I mean, i think you need to make one anyway to fuel up and get a fresh set of tyres, so i guess it would be, but is is a Pit Stop Required thingy?

BTW, the Safety Car is a yellow FXR, most probably not actually on the track if me or Joe are driving it

^ Yes

The only thing you should be worrying about is keeping up with the SC

drive it too fast, i'll catch up with you and pit manouevre you :P jks :P lol
