Not sure if I can make it. Car number 88, if taken then 0 or 8.

The end made it a race worth beeing there. I was laughing so much I could barely keep the car straight. I couldn't help thinking of Clive James as a commentator. "The race could be won by whoever makes it to the finish - something which doesn't seem likely to happen." or so.

Thanks for organising.

You might want to promote this at fragmaster.net.

Sorry for spamming here. Didn't find anything in the rules.

Is having special skins obligatory?

Skin of 88 O. Antika

Quote from nikopdr :

Session: Race
Lap and Timecode: Lap 3 - 3.30min
Cars involved: 42, 88, 99
Brief Description of incident: 99 causing an avoidable incident, by being too much inside, on the unsmooth area. Causes 42 to hit 99 in the rear. 88 comes and drives, carelessly, hits 42 on the sidepod WITHOUT EVEN ATTEMPTING TO BRAKE, which results in 42, 88, 99 spinning and 42 DNF.

I had the choice between braking and risking getting hit from behind or expecting people to phokkin not waste it in the first lap. I chose the second, which obviously was the wrong choice. This is not meant not be an excuse though. My reaction should have been better, no doubt.


Grats to Raven I guess after 2 poles it was just fair to have the win following.

The race wasn't bad. The standard so far is a bit higher than last year.

Can we have the replays?

Quote from CSF :

I think this was one of the best oval races we had, it was for the most part drivers who knew what they were doing. I had great fun with Ori going from about 17th to 6th. I noticed he lost draft for a bit, so dropped back to keep him going because I was totally confident in drafting with him as I knew exactly what he was going to do lap after lap. Most enjoyable. The second roll over when Vince and I came together was a bit silly, sorry to Vince I think I should have left you more room despite your sweep to the right Vettel style. Overall 8th was fine, pity I couldn't have been up with the Cattle and Seb, but after the second roll I think I had some engine damage and it just didn't want to work quite as well.

That was the best part of the race. Was cool to be on the same wave and expose the others.

Same goes for Yann. Really glad to have u guys there.

Quote from pik_d :

Session: Race
Lap/Timecode: Start/Finish from laps 7->8 / 7 minutes 15 seconds
Cars Involved: 88 O. Antika and 22 S.Rose
Brief description of incident: With a yellow flag showing Ori doesn't turn at all for the kink and drives me to the right, straight into a stopped car causing me to flip and retire.

Replay: http://pikunderscored.info/files/LLSSR4RedFlag.mpr

Just for the official part: I disagree on this. 22 S. Rose drove into me thus making me go straight into the standing car.

The rest I have pmed to the admins.

Quote from J@tko :

Don't be afraid to lift out of the throttle

Amen to that.

Another thing which will guaranteed get u further.

R1s still enforced on this combo?

Wondering if I behaved right:

At 05:00:00 I entered the pit road but since pits got closed just then I left it again and lined up in the que at the position I was in at that moment. Was that ok?

Quote from elliot1992 :

Session Number: Practice 2 Race
Lap of incident: 13/14
Timecode of incident: 15.18-28
Cars involved: 88, 26, 59
Brief description of incident: Coming off turn 3 Ori (88) blocks the inside line forcing JJ(59) to take avoidance and having slight contact. Into T1 he continues to block JJ(59) again and moves down into him forcing him into the Apron slowing both of us down in avoidance and sending Ori off into the wall.

This all happened as I was expecting lizardfolk to get behind u and do a proper draft. He obviously wouldn't and so I moved in front of him to give him the draft instead of u so that we could still get the process right. He then decided to go outside and inside again. After we were in the turn I thought he would finally get it but he did the same as one lap before.

You will never see me block unless it is the last laps of the race or another considerable reason. On oval, only a very beginner blocks instead of drafting.

To put it like Jeffy:

Quote from Skydiver173 :

Don't take unnecessary chances when you can achieved the same thing in a safer manner a few hundred meters down the track.

In other words: If you are to choose between driving alone or drafting with someone who has at least the slightest idea of oval driving then do the draft. You will guaranteed be faster.

Here a tutorial fm have done:

Sorry to Yann for that fail somwhere at the 2/3 mark.

@ most of the participants: Make sure you learn from FM / mk1 / havoc / raven / welty / yankman / ... how oval is driven. The races are not terrible but they obviously are far away from how they should be.

Not sure if I will be there today.

Sorry to Spence and D07. Was guessing there would be enough space but obviously guessed wrong.

Thanks guys. Talked to mustangman yesterday and he told me the lx6 skin would get a proper look . Anyway, we are impressed by you guys beein' cool and helpin' us with the skins.

Up front it was relatively enjoyable. I guess one can't say that about the rest of the grid.

There were some serious ventrilo problems. Any news on it?

Raceabout looking best so far - at least to me.

Wow. That's some sweeheet stuff guys. On the RB4 it looks even better than on the XRT.

- Thanks to 18 S. Cattel for not leaving enough space in lap 11 at the chicane and ruining my race.

- Sorry to 57 N. Gebauer and 99 L. Solfrank. I didn't see you in the mirror anymore (it was my pc, not lag) and then u suddenly were both next to me. I tried to brake as smooth as possible but it was too late to have u guys passing properly and I made contact with both of you. Once again sorry. I had this luckily only once while in traffic.

Had some nice battles dispite my major fails and the lag.

For the numberless time there was a participant who obviously doesn't know the rules. Since last year's 500 practice sessions this has been going on and not gotten any better. In the LLWS South City Grand Prix 06 J. Teien would even pass 2 or 3 at a time, get reported but of course there would be no measures taken - I will spare the critics on the responsibles as they have proven often enough what they are. So now this kid comes here and says I didnt leave enough space. Look again. At the point you come to a halt I am leaving the biggest gap in the grid. I will not do screenshots or file reports as I really don't give a damn. I am here to have some nice racing. I don't care about positions since half a decade. It's about priciples. I will not tolerate random morons getting on my nerves. Next time something similar happens I will do whatever I want.

------------------------------

Hope someone can explain this to me: In lap 5, entering the first corner, 51 J. Törmälä suddenly finds himself sideways sliding and touches me slightly. I was strongly assuming it must something strange and looking at the replay I got the confirmation.

The only possibilities I can think of would be lag or another case of those mesh-bugs (or whatever it's called).
