Just lock the thread now I think before everyone gets like bawbag calling people nobs and twats....everyones had their say and its upto the admins as to what happens in future, we're all going to carry on racing in the great league whatever the outcome.

Since I managed to upset everyone over the 'pool dropping' incident I thought I may aswell start this one off. Hoping to do a bit better now we are into the single seaters, love this track layout too quite a nice endurance race track feel to it, except for getting air over that uphill chicane bit that always catches me out when I start getting settled. Also the open wheel aspect will make close racing a bit more interesting. See how many people can get as close as shuey and kimi did at silverstone

I suppose if its their only way of winning a race let them join us

Im not worried about being in the lowest pool, just like to see everything run fairly and by the rules. Why is that a problem?

Quote from Mrs FienDi :

Oh come on.. Nobody can be moved to a higher pool.

So if someone cant make it to the pool 9 and lets you know in advance then they wont be helped and given a place in another pool, like has happened in the past? Now a precedent has been set surely you can be moved up or down.. so maybe pool 1 doesnt seem so stupid.

Quote from anttt69 :

Its not like pool 9 drivers are in contention for the winning the title is it?

So what you mean is pool 9 drivers have less right to win their race than the other 'driving gods' of the league? nice.

What would happen if a guy from the slowest pool couldnt make it and had to race in say pool 1? And then totaly accidently ruined the leaders race? or can people not move up pools?

Cawwa missed his race, pool 4 I believe? So he was allowed to start at the back of pool 9. Obviously he won since he is a better driver than the rest of us who were in pool 9 and was over 4 seconds a lap faster than everyone else. I think while everyone appreciates the work the Admins do it can be a bit frustrating, to be in a pool with someone so much faster than you when according to the rules if you dont make your race you miss out, you dont get the chance to beat some slower people. Whats the point in pools? Why doesnt everyone get picked in a random pool and race that way. I must admit I was a bit annoyed at the situation since I was racing in pool 9, other people might see it differantly. If I had actually finished the race, and come 2nd I would be even more annoyed since I would feel like I should have won the race. Perhaps in future the person who is moved to a differant pool could race but without gaining points? Or gets a time penatly in the next hotlaps maybe? I know we are all slow asses in the last pool but we still fight and work hard for our places on the grid.

I choose not to vote on this poll, I think the Admins do a wonderful job running the league and this is a grey area that just needs cleaning up. Any of us could have connection issues or other issues on race day and end up in this situation.

Quote from f1r3b4ll :

Thanks for the comments guys much appreciated :-) well done to everyone in pool 9 and robm - wtf dude lol i was gutted !!!

Yeah thanks mate I was devastated, a slight lapse in concentration towards to the end ended the XRT dream!
I tried to get your commentary but couldnt get it to work due to my own lack of skills I think, hope to listen in next time.

Quote from Cawwa :

I guess that I lapped you all becourse I never made any pit stop.

Plus u were 4 seconds a lap faster than the rest of us to start with..

Am gutted...running 3rd in my xrt in pool 9 and just flipped it at the last chicane with 5 laps to go!

Are the results for pool 10 wrong? Im sure I came 2nd?!??

there is a bit more weight and power going through those front tyres than the last 2 races! I think at least 1 pit stop might be needed

I think the camber is a bit much on the WR sets, try dropping it a few degrees for a full race to save the tyres

This was my first race in the OLFSL aswell, started 7th in pool 10, not so impressive but im improving! Had a good clean race, found myself 4th going onto the back straight and worked my way upto 2nd. Stayed there till the end, the guy in first was just way too fast for me. f1r3b4ll put in some good laps and put some pressure on me at the end, he closed the gap from 8 to 2 seconds in a few laps and we both ended up putting in PB's on the same lap as I just managed to stay infront. Great race! Looking forward to the next one, thanks to all the hosts.

thanks for the pits info burnout, 50% fuel?

you mean percent not litres?
