If its that kind of fight even better :D
1-2 L.hook, R.hook, uppercut- right cross (my favourite combo :D)
 
You won't be able to after my fake out jab followed by a punt in the nuts :ouch:
 
I'm predicting a left jab, right jab, spit in the eyes and blow to the gut combo.
 
Gross etid!
Good until then though!

Andy has left and Etid will be when he goes back to college so I think one division will make sense. Ill collect some names after tonights race to find out who wants to be in the new 'super' division 👍
 
Andy has left??

Just had my first practice and the alfa is a dream to drive around Laguna, that and its one of my favourite tracks. Tyre degradation isn't too much of a worry but don't know how my pace compares to others.
Rome is awesome too 👍

Hey, illsee my guys at 9 as per usual. Doing a numbers check tonight to see if its worth keeping 2 divisions or not let me know your thoughts 👍

I should be at the race tonight. Lots of work to do before going away for 2 weeks, so I will not be racing in the next 2 weeks (as on my PM 2 weeks ago). If you need to make it as 1 division, you can count me out, no problem. On the other hand, if there is still a space for me in 3 weeks, I will be happy to race on, it is fun battling with you guys :)
 
Sorry Brett to confirm im gonna declare myself out with regret pm explained all. Its with a heavy heart as i love the car/structure etc:grumpy: Hope this makes it easyier for you guys to perhaps merge together.

Goodluck all.👍
 
Well that's 6 people gone :confused: With a few more that don't show up for the races :(

Might as well run 1 division tonight at this rate, we will probably have only 5 or 6 people racing in div 1

Pagey, that means youre on your own tonight :( And also means theres 8 Merc drivers across the 2 divisions which is almost half of the people who are left D: What times were you doing Pagey?
 
Yeah Alfa are completely screwed in the contructors :(

Umm Laguna fastest is mid 1.24s and Rome mid 1.07s
 
Ok, everyone meet in my lounge tonight. We will all race together as division 1 is badly depleted. It will turn out better like this in the end anyway.
Ill open my lounge up at about 850PM 👍

Easy +JB- No probs.
 
Really hope there is no bug, but we can't really carry on with only 6 or 7 in a room.

Goodbye podiums anyway :lol:
 
My PS3 is taking soooo long to update...

Then I still have to update GT5!

Hope I make it in time...

:scared:
 
The plan is as follows
1. Clear caches
2. Visible and actual damage will be off to reduce traffic
3. All mics to be switched off during the race (not just muted).

That will help and along with PD's fix we may be ok 👍

Just to confirm, all drivers to my lounge tonight. If you cant get in PM me.

Wordup- Mine took about 10 mins for the PS3 update so you should be ok.

Lounge open.

Very frustrating race for me :crazy:
1st race i had a cushty 15 second lead, but span and lost it all!!! I decided to pit but on the sharp left hand bit my car went see through, shot back and then just went straight through the pits, without putting on tyres.
So i had to come in again, 25 seconds behind the lead, cut it down to 17 second by the end and finished 1 tenth behind M1

Second race i came up to second after a lag incident, i was stuck behind wordup. I was slightly faster and i got past a few times but he just got in my draft and came on by. I made a mistake and after i had lost the rhythm and slipped back.

Oh and Knelly...............DONT GOOOO!!!!! :lol: the incident you had was purely lag, spurgys car shot forward taking a few people out before he disconnected

Yes, sorry about that, my car shared my frustration and went off in a tantrum before I disconnected so I hit a few people. :( hopefully Ill have it fixed by saturday, I need to do more tests though. And im really pissed off after doing lots of testing, getting the setup as good as I can, and then just getting nothing for it again :/ But tbh Ive given up with this season because with the settings/changing around of divisions and stuff it doesnt really count for much, so will just take it as a test season. :)

This^^^ it was just lag 👍

Well done to Tyrrel and Wordup on their awesome victories, updating the OP now :D
Any complaints to me, you have 6 hours.
 
Chuffed with the win. Huge slice of luck but I'm not complaining :D

Also I'l try and get my headset sorted out for next week, I can't hear 90% of what you're all saying all I can hear is the crowd and the vuvuzela-like horn things.
 
Spurgey- Read this https://www.gtplanet.net/forum/showthread.php?t=243353

Ok I have to transfer 1 driver to Alfa from Mercedes as soon as possible. I will offer a contract (:D) to two drivers who dont seem to agree with the merc and give them 24 hours to reply, first come first served. If not I will select 2 more and so on until everyone has had a shot, then I will force a driver to move to even up the teams.

The first 2 drivers I will offer Alfa to are- Mike and Sakery, please respond with yay or nay in 24 hours 👍
Working on the OP will take time tonight guys with the changes, I feel it was a better experience tonight 👍

PS- Whoever moves to Alfa keep 100% of their race points so far.

I'll take the offer to go Alfa, will miss my fellow Merc Team mates :guilty: :(

I did some testing in the alfa the other day on both of last nights tracks and was as quick on default settings as I was in the Merc! :confused:

Will there be Pasta? :dunce:

I enjoyed the racing last night, would have been better without the fever! :sick: I was hot but not in a good way! :eek:
 
Ok Mike, you are now on team Alfa 👍
Spaghetti in the glove compartment and 3 extra reverse gears in case you have to reverse away from a fight :lol:

Yeah, it was good to have everyone in the same lounge and the division 2 lads didnt do too badly 👍

Mercedes and Calibra are now full, we have one spot free at Alfa for any new joiners and we will leave it at 15. As we have moved to 5 per team the top 4 results will be counted towards the constructors championship 👍

As you saw I couldn´t make it Yesterday -_-
I would have rejected the offer anyway :D
Merc is the best DTM Car (of the ones that are ingame).
 
Hey Sakery, I guessed you were at work making multi million euro deals :D
You ok for next week bro?
 
Sorry but I'm dropping out. Thanks for the place and races though.

Going to focus on the FGTC.

Good luck guys! :)
