Ahh. 💡

How are peoples times stacking up for London? Immortal?

 

[Spurgy 777]

Ive done a 50.663 at London and a 1.46.XXX at Daytona You?

 

[Pagey279]

Wow the -10bhp makes more difference than I thought, 51.3 for London and a 1.48 I think for daytona

 

[IMMORTALPILOT]

I hate London, London best in the moment 50,28 now.
Daytona i must test later.

 

[Spurgy 777]

Immortals done a 50.2 ask for his setup does seem closer though

Almost Stock setup

 

[Spurgy 777]

Well of course it is, the stock setups quite good, only usually needs slight tweeks

 

[berty1979]

we are doomed

 

[Spurgy 777]

Especially seen as he hates this track and is using "almost" stock setup I mean 0.4 faster than everyone is a dreadful time, he should be hours infront

 

[berty1979]

it should be fun to watch the replays

 

[Spurgy 777]

I can see a lot of crashes happening, one because its really hard to overtake, worse than Madrid! And two because its really easy to hit the walls by going wide and get stuck blocking the track

 

[RayRoocroft]

im not looking forward to this first round, havent had a chance to prepare at all having been working muchly and swapping ps3's aboot, it should be an......."interesting" one for me lol

 

[worduphomes]

I am shockingly bad at both these tracks... Especially London, so it's going to be bad start to this championship for me. Lots of chassis straightning coming up.

 

[berty1979]

at these comments. I am exactly the same, no practice and no idea
Thats the beauty of it, I dont care if I lose as long as I have a race with someone

 

[DrifterJoe]

Not feeling too good today, might have to miss this one.

 

[berty1979]

Too ill to race Joe? Just come along and pootle round mate...like me

 

[RayRoocroft]

I may actually skip this one I'm ****ing useless on it!

 

[berty1979]

up to you but it doesnt matter if you are useless. Grab some points

 

[TyrrellRacing]

Are we starting qualifying at half past now ?

 

[Pagey279]

I'm going to have to pull out of this one, I feel like utter 🤬 plus I'm extremely tired, so at the moment I have the reactions of a dead nun. I really don't feel up to it.
Have fun 👍

 

[worduphomes]

My screen froze while I was in 3rd and I was actually closing the gap to the leader at the time

 

[berty1979]

Pagey- I just saw your post, use this one as your dropped race but it would have been good to see you racing Immortal

Wordup- Unlucky mate, a dropped result for you. Your car stayed active driving on the grass for ages, I did wonder what was happening

 

[Spurgy 777]

Had two great races Had a good battle with squeek and wordup in the first race, as well as mike and brett at points to come 3rd overall Then in the second race, and a great battle with immortal all the way up until the end of lap 13, managed to keep him behind me with a lot of defensive driving but once he was infront with a bit of a gap, I couldnt do much more All in all good night, think the Mercs closer too 👍

 

[IMMORTALPILOT]

Yes good racing guys, dtm cars are really good.

 

[berty1979]

Ill do the results later, well done Immortal 👍

 

[IMMORTALPILOT]

Ill do the results later, well done Immortal 👍

thanks mate

 

[RayRoocroft]

maybe we should introduce a ballast for the podium placements? lol

good racing by everyone, particularly enjoyed the first race as i genuinely thought i would be at the bottom but came fourth with a good little fight from sluuuuurgemond lol. the mercedes had the edge in and out of the first corner which i just could not compensate and could really feel/see the differences between the two cars. in the last section i could catch up but if he kept close, which he did, it was a complete no brainer.

the second race was controversial for me, as i got hit and hit others in the process, but i also hit shukarakakaaaakree sorry forget the name, and waited 10 seconds for him to come back on track, so was damn as near it dead last.

by the time it came to pit i was 7th or so, and when i pitted it took me through the pit lane, didnt change my tyres and sent me out the exit!

obviously i had to come back round for tyres so that was pretty much it, i was dead last, and gutted! i felt i could run strong at the road course but it wasnt to be.

anything i can do regarding the failed pitstop as i had lost a good 15 seconds or so from going in there?

 

[DrifterJoe]

I don't think you can do much about the pitstop, as you went in flat out. For these cars I think anything over 80mph at Daytona would be risking the game giving you a drive through or holding you in your pit box for a 10 second penalty.

 

[berty1979]

Can anyone confirm if Tyrrel was in race 1? I dont have him in the results for some reason?
