In sprint race I was doing OK, until internet connection went down.
Don`t know if that was server or me.

In feature race, just before the start it happened again (*$#%^&!!!!).
I want to thank the RACE CONTROL for leting me join in, an most of all want to thank them for clearing my S&G. I was so confused and eager to catch the rest of field, so I turned off speed limiter a little bit to early. Thanks again for understanding!

In lap 2, after the fast chicane, there was couple of cars that went off track, I`ve managed to pass them cleanly. And then, in the fast left didn`t see 09 - J.Sedgwick who was spinning and ended right infront of me, so I slamed him realy hard. Sorry for that m8, but you were manuvering back to track at all cost.

Gratz to all finishers, specialy ones on the podium!

Yeah sorry for that I had absolutley no control until I hit the tarmac which was unfortunately on the apex of that corner :[

Godawful race, I gave up.

I hate this track.

SO MUCH.

Looking forward to SO Town though :]

Quote from TFalke55 :

I already see your reactions to the South City combo(s) the risk will be doubled there, I predict.

Egzaktly , no. I love so5 track , and so meny combos was draiwing there , in that track you dont have sand to spin , just the walls are close but the walls are not our enemies.

Quote from Rudy van Buren :

ill upload it

Replay from Sprint and Main race

thanks

TexasLTU sorry man , for ruin your race in lap 9 on main race .
On 8 laps I was stacked in the sand and go backward to go out from there , I know , that is the fastest turn and I watched and managed to not go out on the track before the leader and them the folow on the race go past me , and when I reached the track I was emediatly break , but that was not enough for you to go in inside line.
sory again.

These results are unofficial and could be changed after penalties, proper laps done checked etc.

points for fastest lap / most laps leaded are missing

1) They are coming soon - watch out on the forums.

2) You'd be surprised. We've run oval events with R2s only before and its fine

Yes, we are serious.

The R2s will not last as long, for sure, but they also require you to manage your tyres, and do some setup adjustments before the race to make them last. They also pick up heat a bit more quickly after SC periods than the others, and since they get hotter, they stay warmer a bit longer, on average.

d

I also did stints of 40-50 laps with R2 without having to fight with the tyres... It 'll depend on how you can use the tyres and how agressive you do the drafting.

R2's are fun as hell to race with.

falke, am i right if i say that i only need to make sure of the 300 laps online to be able to drive the event?

or did i miss something i still need to do? ( yes i know there is more in the rules but im just looking for myself )

Sorry guys , unfortunatly for me , I can`t make it, the event on round 3 ( I will be on the road on buisnis trip , at 16 and 17 May) , and with that I automaticaly loosing the right to be on Kyoto 400 event, and the Kyoto 500 event same thing :eek: :irked::bunny::gnasher::dnfnoob::chair::hypnotize
