Blasphemy!!

 

[aerolite]

Blasphemy!!

Haha.....I was all set to see you guys squirm around and have to change tires once or twice.....but Slobban got a bit soft today and took pity on you guys in GrpA. Fear not, we will make up for it next week

 

[davidt33]

Should make them have to change tyres for the insolence.

 

[yogi bear]

Well that was amusing reading during this morning’s coffee, have to admit I laughed pretty good reading Slobbans comment and the replies, too much!

I have sent two emails to code masters now re their website league search and just got a we have sent message to appropriate group reply.

Bear, definitely go and see somebody else other than your GP, you are likely taking all those meds for nothing. Specialist’s are the way to go, which ever route you choose. I too, like Gutter, have had the most success with a sports physiotherapist over the years, it’s amazing how many times it has just been a pinched nerve and one or a few visits have cured the issue. After, and during, my 40 years of throwing myself off of race bikes, I can tell you with good past experience that this route has by far been the most successful for me. A chiropractor also helped at times as well.
Another successful path that my wife and I have been on for almost 30 years is homeopathic. We have an awesome Naturopath doctor and for the most part have always been able to cure anything with natural supplements. All that most drugs do today is just treat what hurts and don’t come close to getting to the root of the issue. Best not to get me started on prescription drug issue!

Haha....is this a racing thread or a geriatric complaint thread, how can you tell there are a good percentage of BOB’s here, or close to it!
I will post tracks, laps and fuel this afternoon.

Yeah, I guess I tend to ignore stuff and just get used to putting up with the pain... but back in my day we used to walk 2 miles to school every day, uphill...both ways!

 

[yogi bear]

Hey guys my G29 gave out I ripped it apart and checked everything I could but I was unable to fix it. After talking it over with Camel I ordered a t300 with the t3pa pedals found a deal for $360 with free shipping they will not be here by tonight so I will not be running.

Sorry bout not messaging on battlefield Vaper, I looked at your inventory afterward, nice!. I especially like that sniper rifle. I just can't multitask...lol.

I bought the season pass way back...was this Audi in that?

 

[aerolite]

The season pass just allows you to DL any content that comes out without paying for it, because you already paid for the pass. You need to go to the PSN Store and search Project Cars 2, all the DLC that has come out since the game was released is there waiting for you. The Audi will be there.

 

[Vaper58]

Lol ya that's not my sniper rifle I only sent you pics of the guns that I have in battlefield 1. That was my SMLE mkIII it has been sporterized so I got it cheap and it's one of the ones I bought from James earl Jones (voice of darth Vader) I got the cert to prove. I have a lot more boom sticks. This is my sniper Savage BA110 Stealth in .338 laupu mag with a Sightron S3 10-50x zoom x 60mm

I agree. My back guy is homeopathic - it's been amazing what doing the correct stretches can do to keep my back happy.
Oh and while we're in the subject of age and health - all you guys - quit fing smoking. If it wasn't for overweight smokers I'd be unemployed. Just saying...
Stepping off the soap box.

Make us pay today! It rains in the desert right? Not that I’ve been practicing or anything...

 

[sgohsixthree]

Sorry I'm gonna miss tonight guys. Hope you have the runs! Err Funs!

 

[GUTTERBOY3007]

@Aero and @senna I created a DiRT Rally event and sent you invites. If anyone else is interested hit me up or go to the PSN Community Page and try joining from there since the Codemasters website league search function is down. Maybe we can “backdoor” you into the league (sorry, I couldn’t resist the pun).

 

[Senna94f1]

I love smoking wtf ,if I am gonna die I am gonna die doing somthing I enjoy ,

I don't drink or do drug,

Well no more anyways lol, ive done enough things to kill me 100 times over (racing and bike accidents) had cancer when I was 20 yrs old which effectively put a finish to my boxing , I didn't start smoking till I was 20yrs old ,and lived a good life and have two grown up sons more mature than me ,so if smoking kills me then it's my way ,

Give you an example of stupid people ,I got home very late around 10pm uk time from work,so had to have a bath and take me dog Dixie for his walk,well this is where the stupid people comes in,

As I am minding my own business and so was my dog and he's always on a lead ,this other dog comes running out of some ones open door from there house and starts to attack my dog and me so my dog goes on the offensive and then he attacks other dog ,along comes the stupid people and just stands there looking,please note my dog is still on his lead,I then after 2 minutes have no choice but to threaten said stupid people and says if you don't grab hold of your dog I will boot it to the moon and with my other foot put that so far up your backside my shoe laces will be coming out of your mouth, the attack lasted around five minutes from stupid people's dog,
All I was doing was talking dog for his usual walk

My dog has serval cuts for defending himself and me ,these stupid people called the police ,luckily a niegbbour had this all on cctv, and these stupid people who are new to area just let there dog out for it to run around on the streets. , and said dog has been running around attacking other dogs,this all happened around an hour before league started,

So if I appeared a little bit quick to judge other drivers actions tonight perhaps you will understand that I didn't want to let you guys down ,

I throughly enjoyed 2nites racing , you are all a great bunch of guys but if I have to pull out don't judge me please as for me time racing end its getting on for 5am .

Thanks for putting up with me
Mark

That's pretty crazy, sounds like the dog was weaving around a lot..... Stupid people for sure, take a club with you next time!

I don't know how you guy's from that side of the pond can race at those times of the day! I guess we can put up with you a bit more yet

Results

Another week in the books with some good close racing. We missed a few of our regulars, but also welcomed a new driver, Smoke, who did well in his first night with us. He and Mike tied in points for the night, but Mike got two wins so he gets the overall. It was interesting after race 2 in GrpA, 2nd thru 5th were all tied on 38 points.

Congrats to @RobbiefromBC , this weeks "Mr. Aawesome" for the Grp A win

Congrats to @Mike Lobban , this weeks "Mr. Baawesome" for the Grp B win

 

[IceWarden]

So I couldn’t find a specific bug report related to not adding fuel. I would stop at the sign, the car would lift up and the crew would appear to be working. Even the fuel guy had the hose out but no fuel would go in.

If this continues next week then we have serious problem.

Gotta be something specific in your settings. I had a few issues at the start, but when I got it figured out I almost never have a pit issue, other than forgetting to hit my speed limiter and getting a penalty!
If you want to get on one evening for a bit, we can go through the whole pit stop set up and try it out a few times to see what happens.

As far as I know, from my own experience the pit strategies work bro. You just have to make sure the strategy you intend to use is selected and indicated by a check mark next to it. What happens is in-between practice and race it may revert to "Default". Once you double-check before whichever session is due to start via "Pit Strategy", take a look see to ensure the selected pit strategy you intend or intended to use has the check mark next to it and not another and you're good to go.

We did that with him last night and he still had some problems.
I forgot to reply to you about the swearing crew chief. It doesn't matter which person you select, they will all swear. Make sure the foul language, or whatever they call it, is set to max (high, always?). You will likely not hear them swear though until you are in a race situation. They don't do it all that often so it makes it even funnier when they do. Last night my guy called Bear a Tart and Lobban a Bas***d, along with a few other swear words thrown into the mix. And they will call you names as well! You can set up your name so the crew chief calls you by name. For example: "C'mon Steve, that was the poorest ******g excuse of a qualifying lap I have ever seen" ! I almost fell out of my rig when he said that!

 

[RobbiefromBC]

Guess some folks like it a little more rough than others...

 

[davidt33]

Probably he's just a bit unlucky Aero.
BTW, thanks for the heads up on Crew Chief. Was about time.
And hey Robbie, ain't nothing wrong with a lil roughness.

 

[Mike Lobban]

I hope everyone enjoyed themselves last night, I know I sure did. I only had one spin all night and that was due to a contact in front of me I couldn't avoid. I have never felt more comfortable in a racing car, I had complete control and confidence in the car instead of the usual car controlling me.
Senna,(markf1), that first race pushing to keep that ten second lead to negate the penalty was butt clinching, I was pushing, pushing, pushing..... ya baby. That was stress, but good stress. Good racing.
Smoke put in a very good showing for his first time out and didn't complain once...lol. Eggcelent.
BCBoys won Gr. A.........ahhhhhhh, who cares. Gr. B is where the cool guys hang.
Aero is such a Wanker, blames me AGAIN that I took him out. So me, being the polite, kind, considerate, handsome, and stand up guy that I am, I wait and wait and wait to concede the spot, (I always seem to be waiting for him) only to watch the replay this morning and lol and behold....AGAIN, it wasn't me. See how much of a pain in the ass he can be. Next time, I do the pushing.......no spit.
Missed a few regulars guys but still raced with an almost full room. Gr.A cars did a great job in passing us, imo.

A tasty tidbit of fact.........the Lobanaro Lounge is the most popular PCars 2 league, Aero, correct me if I'm wrong, in the world. Or is it just GTPlanet? Proud to be a part of it anyway, way to go guys.

And just in case anyone didn't hear,


I AM BAAAAASOME

I don't talk to has beens. You are old news Bear, make way for the new breed of BoB.

 

[davidt33]

Ditto to that.

BTW, would we be swapping cars next Monday like we did the Monday last week letting the Group A guys drive the slower cars for a change? That would be well cool. I'd come on with my bad shoulder just for that. *evil laugh*

haha.......he falls for it again (that's what he gets for always blaming me )

On GTPlanet, yes, don't know about the world!

You might be Baawesome but you can't spell, FIFY.

have you had 3 for 3. Wins yet?....just sayin......

He's not quite Super Baawesome yet Bear, and seeing as you asked , here is the list of drivers that have swept the night since the inception of the Lounge, and were either Super Aawesome, or Super Baawesome.
Camel x4
Robbie x3
Aero x1
Bear x1
Eh Team x1
XRad x1 (though he did kinda cheat by deciding to grab the Grp B car, )

BTW, would we be swapping cars next Monday like we did the Monday last week letting the Group A guys drive the slower cars for a change? That would be well cool. I'd come on with my bad shoulder just for that. *evil laugh*

No, but we will put them in slower cars again at some point down the road.
