[berty1979]

Good testing tonight fellas, Merc ruled again at SSR5 (to be expected) but not by as much this time 👍

 

[V8-Johnboy]

Jog on Gik.

Bretts said that time to move on please.

 

[JOE2011]

what timezone are you in berty???

 

[berty1979]

GMT mate.

 

[Pagey279]

Don't know what happened on the last corner brett it must have been lag. I doubt anyone let alone you would have tried to overtake there, its just suicidal

 

[berty1979]

I was annoyed at the time but that could be something to do with me feeling like 🤬 at the moment
I reckon I should have backed off because I made an earlier mistake that allowed you to take the lead (by a nose). It was an amazing jump though, clean over Spurgey I think!

[Pagey279]

I looked behind me and saw your car sideways, about 12 foot in the air flying over Spurgys

Sounds like it might be the onset of man flu....god help us all!

 

[berty1979]

All I can say is thank god for lemsip, I am off my face on the stuff. Dont want to miss basketball tonight.

JB- If I lose tonight it definatley because of man flu (or the bug )

 

[Ellis]

I think a bug is going round I am off today

 

[berty1979]

I am out of lemsip, I may have to contact my dealer and see if he has any full strength night nurse

 

[Knelly]

I think the online bug has affected all GTP users - I'm dosed up to the eyeballs right now :achoo:

 

[Pagey279]

I think this is the perfect time to say that I feel fresh as a daisy

Curse you mr. Chlamydia

 

[berty1979]

glad to see its not just me bring affected by the online bug

Ellis- Shouldnt your sig say 'potential' endurance racer?

 

[DrifterJoe]

The bug got me too, but I'm all better now.

 

[berty1979]

All the alcohol in your system makes it a difficult place for the bug to survive Joe

Listen to you all, you big bunch of sissies!! Stop your moaning, and man the hell up!! :-p you should be ashamed of yourselves haha!

Looking forward to tonight, even though i cant remember what tracks we are at lol

**NOTE TO SELF: zoom map in to avoid unnecesary collisions with the opposition

I can't describe how cold it is today! Is it just the southern wind down here which hits you like ice or is it just me?

 

[berty1979]

Dave- I bet your all in tears whe you have man flu! Tonight its SSR5 and TM

Etid- Its like always 4 degrees warmer where you live than anywhere else, you must have a hole in your lacoste polo shirt

Correct snotty nose weather.

 

[berty1979]

Race day gents!
Ill see the division 2 troops in my lounge at 9 and the rest report to wordups' as usual.
Keep it clean (to avoid arguments and penalties) and enjoy, I HATE SSR5 but will soldier on and look forward to TM.
See y'all later my beauties

 

[S30Zenzow]

I believe I'm already out, judging by the first post. So I'd like to make it official: I'm leaving the series.

 

[berty1979]

I did ask about 30 posts ago, when I got no answer I assumed you were out.
Happy GT5ing.

My lounge open in 10 mins.

 

[cally-dave]

Dude i had the worst sore throat known to man (imagine swallowing a cactus every few mins for 2weeks) as that went i was plagued by horrific nosebleeds that would last for 30mins or more, and kick out roughly 3 enormous blood clots on each nose bleed i had - which was more than i could keep count of (i force bloodclots out either by blowing hard through my nose, or suck em back and spit em out cos im hardcore haha) that lasted a few days, and then i was hit with very bad cold im my ribs and the flu for a week. Did i moam and complain? Nope. Use pain killers etc? Nope! Cos im a real man hehe

 

[Spurgy 777]

Race 1 report: Qualied 4th, couldve been 3rd but wasnt a great lap. At the start as you can imagine I went back into last, but managed to repass Dave round the 1st corner, and then Wordup shortly after the 1st sector line because he hit the wall. Followed the 4 leaders for a lap or 2, trying to keep up in the dirty air, and managed to get Rich after the hairpin on the 3rd lap after he clipped the wall This put me in 4th, I then was behind John, on lap 4/5 he spun out on the first corner and I was up into 3rd, right behind Pagey I couldnt catch and pass him so stayed behind until the pitstops, Andy was about 3 seconds infront. In the pitstop my driver slowed down whilst Pagey and Andys cars went into there pit spaces, and then went really slowly into my own. This meant that when I came out I was 9.5 seconds behind I pushed really hard over the next 5 laps, setting quali times every lap but could only close 2 seconds, then on lap 13 my tires went and I was just about managing to hold onto their pace. So I came home in 3rd, 7.5 seconds off the lead. Alright, but was hoping for better.

 

[cally-dave]

Race 1 was a disaster for me. The front just wanted to wash out at every corner, and the back end just refused to grip, leaving me almost in the wall every corner :-(

Good start to race 2 lol, half of us got frozen on the false starts screen Haha! Roll on attempt 2 for race 2....... Hopefully i will have some more luck here.....

 

[ETID]

Couldn't make it tonight I have been looking after my brother as he's ill. Been giving him some games on FIFA.

 

[DrifterJoe]

Good results for me, 1st at SSR5 and 2nd at TM. Could've maybe been 1st at TM if I hadn't accidentally span my own teammate and had to wait for him.
