Protest against 02 Core C.Green, as he divebombs me on my lap 116. We were in place battlement there. Video here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S1bBUSAW3q0

Quote from BenjiMC :

update here, think i added that stuff.

It was this one, I would like to be bigger/more colorful/whatever because it would make it clearer to see where to come off the lane / where people are allowed in track again. I dont see that well, im sorry.

Just being trying the layout. Is it possible to have the custom exit after the oval more clearly marked? (larger sign at the very end / line or something)

I wasnt trying to fool anyone - that was in fact my racing line(Weird or not).

I hope we can agree on that its the oncoming cars responsibility to judge, whether its safe or not to pass. And since I didnt actually do anything different when I was about to be lapped I'm sorry to say that there must have been several judgement faults.

Whatever said and done, I liked this track and I still like racing IGTC. And at the end of today, maybe we all learned a lesson or two about respecting other drivers (yes that includes me ).

Quote from [DUcK] :

after watching the replay (just from the last 2 hours) i watched j.valentin do a lot of silly stuff. at first, i thought it was my fault for the incident, but really i dont think it was. almost every faster car that went passed him he either made contact with, got spun by, or annoyed them alot. its safe to say if i was a lapped car i would let them passed ASAP under a braking point, then follow them around and learn the lines or something! i mean, ur losing more time by holding guys up, than u would (infact u would gain time) if u let them passed easily. i saw the same thing happened with a spdo car, contact was made at t2 hairpin, and you spun. maybe you just have to learn when its best to give way. if you complain about us making you lose time, think about the time you lose for us, also the fact you could actually be gaining time if you let us slip passed nice and easily then sit behind us

Its ok - thats your point of view. However that doesnt justify forcing the way through like done tonight (What if we all did that?). I didnt think that was the best place to let people pass, as most incidents happen just there on that specific track (and unfortunately, so they did... :shrug. Comon - its a 4 hour race and by being a little more patient these accidents could have been avoided.

Quote from DeadWolfBones :

We are investigating. Please be patient.

Ok. Just not sure of it, as I forgot to mark as a complaint

This was meant as a complaint:

Quote from MZWiZard :

Both in first sharp lefthander, they divebomb me:

My lap 104 - 39 S.Andrews, no major damage but time loss.

My lap 107 - 01 C.Green hits me from behind, causing a massive crash and my car being broken.

EDIT: Oh, and count this in too:

I thought blue flag meant "let the lapping cars pass WHEN IT IS SAFE" - cmon guys, we were also racing until you ended it...

Quote from BenjiMC :

Watching on board the #7 this look like his racing line. However from the #19 looks like he gave some room for a pass.



Ruling: Racing incident.

Quote from andRo. :

Ohh well..I should of got that penalty. But valentin got upset that I overtook him, and before that crash he was crashing into my back. For no reason, then I lost control of the car a bit while looking at him, and turn to the right, where we both touched each other, and he was pushing me on purpose, you can see there that he was braking, and then he started gasing and pushin, and then he braked, and I spinned him, by accident, cause I tried to turn to the right. And in the 1st lap, he pushed me away in the same place where the crash happened. He was passing me, and pushed me away, and over took me, and didn't even appologise. But I know I should of got that penalty. My lags made other people crash. Sry guys. Next time I'll be more careful, those crashes weren't done on purpose.
Thx for the race anyways, it was fun.

What a load of b....... Yeah it was very fun until 2. race...
You know my feelings, an apology would be in place

Parking on the track is of course a bad idea and penalty accepted. I apologize my bad temper.

However I expect people to stop divebombing, giving bad lag excuses etc. when Im back in. Otherwise please go to the demoservers...

Race 2 - Sprint and main - multiple laps:

andro.something dont know how to drive other than hotlapping, it seems. He crashes several drivers from our team and finally me.

Im done with these races...

Quote from justingt5 :

Surely if i race on my own i should get whatever points my finishes deserve as this is going to be much lower than that of the other teams with more than one driver scoring points???

which means i am at a disadvantage on my own but this is better than doing 3 races for NO POINTS which really seems pointless as if i do not score points i may aswell sit out the the races until my team mate comes back anyway?

Since this is a team series, may I suggest that you are awarded 75% score? That way, you will race for something - and it would be fair to the other teams too, since we are at double or more risk not to complete a race with good results...

How about it, admin?

Sign me up too. I hope I will be able to join all events - and team score averaging is the way to go!

Quote from Locovich :

First: i went to the gravel (only 2 wheels not the whole car) because you didn´t slow down in the straight when i was overtaking you (you got blue flag, remember)

So I got blue flag, but you passed me and I didnt need to slow the car down by much, but I did.

Quote from Locovich :

so i forced the turn as we were fighting for a position and lost braking point.

Yeah saw that and saw dust coming from your car, assuming it would take you a while to get back on track.

Quote from Locovich :

Second: i thought you saw me on track again, i was expecting you to slow down, we were side to side, you came over me and you know the rest (obviously you didnt see me).
I apologize for the accident, it was quite a confusion....

At that time, I was clearly in front of you. You were at best at my rear corner not having sufficient overlap to claim the turn-in point - remember I was racing here too (and blueflag means make room when safe)

What actually made me comment at all about this incident, is the fact that you didnt even brake - you just kept on pushing my car around. Im sorry to say it - but thats not my definition of racing.

22 - R. Dario loses control over his car at his lap 41 (time 1:36:42) after having passed me, making me repass him because I thought he was in the gravel. He regained control though, but being behind me I would let him pass again in the oval section. However, he pushed my car, making it spin at 1:36:52 making me loose at least 10 seconds.

Penalty?

Quote from baSh0r :

ok i take it back then no offense sorry

All good

Quote from baSh0r :

Lap 32 / J.Valentin #09

Getting Blue flag and blocking our car heavily. I dont want to make a protest i just want to encourage overlapped cars to move over properly.

Ahem... Your driver did a wild manouver trying to pass outside where not possible. If you look a little further ahead, you will see I give room when its appropriate .

If it was me you meant - our car has number 7

If I drove 60mins and 3 secs, can my teammate complete the rest?

Lap 148 - Car behind 07 F.Sonne rammed our car, causing a spin-off. We went from 5. to 9. position.

Quote from Franke :

#07 hit by 14 on lap 13, hit and didn't let us right the car, just kept pushing our car...

Follow up with edited replay.

Number 14 D. Lind divebombs me into the corner after the back-straight and furthermore keeps on pushing, causing me to loose several positions. SG penalty recommended.

We had a good end in the 3. race today though - loads of fun, mr. undercover - sniper - bullittrain - whatever!!

Kenn is about to decide what will happen to all the "chatters" in the race - but just a kind reminder: NO CHAT allowed!

See you next time!

Me in too

Here is the GM/Unity skin attached

Good you uploaded them

graphics - 8800GT has no competition atm - first choice!

cpu - q6600 is still sweet and goes to at least 3GHz oc'ed. You wont see much advantage in lfs of the four cores, though.

motherboard - anything that allows you a very high fsb, in order to take you c2-something to the max.

power supply - you current should do just fine, power-wise


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

I have a c2d e6320 oc'ed to 3,5GHz, 8800gts, three harddrives and two optical. My generic cheap 420w supply does just fine and I have measured actual usage to max. 297w doing 3dmark, encoding movie and encoding rar file at the same time. 8800gt will use less power.
