Quote from eimer_ :see, this is where we can start placing bets on who is gonna win

to put a time limit on the event, you could make it a 2 hours race maybe. and juts say that the winner doesnt need to cross the finish line after those 2 hours, we will just check who got most laps.

Just wanted to point out that a time limit won't work... whoever drives the fastest will have the most laps, regardless of fuel consumption. That's assuming the time limit is less then the time it takes to use all your fuel, and if not, then the time limit would be pointless.

This is just my understanding based on what Scawen has said so far, but I take it that the Scirocco IS finished, that is, ready for release.

What's holding things up is that some graphics changes introduced unexpected bugs that still have to be fixed. The reason (again, just my opinion) that the Scirocco hasn't been included in the test patches is that it doesn't need further testing and Scawen doesn't want to release it until the official patch is ready.

Quote from RS1T :that is why this forum disgusts me...simple

if you dont like my opinions dont read my posts...it is as simple as that. I just feel it is wrong for the devs to get everyones hopes up and then crush them in an instant. If you are not 100% sure the car will work with no probs, then dont mention its release until you are

You'd prefer that they rush your hopes slowly?

Quote from MiniVan :I wanna make designs and stuff and want to be able to mirror it onto the other side without it looking like crap anyone know how and what I should use to skin on and how?

The GIMP has a very nice Rotate tool.

Quote from e2mustang :Even if your watching your speedo is way too fast for road cars. i usually drive xrt and its faster than my e36 m3 so if we are goint to make this game that so realisitic(coz wer doing it!) these things have to be fixed also right?

edit: also the speedfeel is not right for me.

Well, I'm sure with that data the devs should be able to get it perfect now.

Quote from squidhead :I don't get it, you want red wires or the wrc gear knob?

No, I think he's asking for the CD in the slot and the faceless stereo.

2 finishes in 38 races on CTRA? I don't think lack of speed is your main problem.

First off, I enjoyed it greatly and would do it again. Much thanks to AWO6 for organizing. Despite any criticisms to follow, I very much appreciate everything you did to make this happen.
That being said:

The SC rules did not seem to work out as intended, and I'm not sure if anyone really understood what they were supposed to do when it was deployed. I know that for myself, I never came close to catching up to it, so it didn't seem to make a difference. (Aside from causing confusion)
If it was going to be used, I think there should have been and enforced pace lap whenever the SC had to come out. But better I think, would just be for the marshals to clear cars to Shift-P.

The no chat rule should have been strictly enforced from the beginning, especially in cases of name-calling. Either enforce the rule and spec chatters, or allow chat. Best approach in my opinion would be to warn chatters by name, once, then spectate them if it happens again.

I'm not sure what happened with the password after the server crash, but that was extremely frustrating, and probably didn't help the atmosphere of the race.

Above all, I think more communication was needed from the marshals when problems occurred.

As far as the qualification problems, I really don't think it mattered much as the field was pretty well sorted by the third lap.

Again though, I did enjoy the race very much, and hope there will be another. Thanks again!

I hate to be the one to do this, but I gotta... when you slow down a car it's called "braking" NOT "breaking". Hopefully nothing on your car breaks when you brake.
