Bret, did you mean put the high end turbo on the Merc (1.38.282 Top speed 167) or a mid range turbo on the Alfa (1.37.653 Top speed 165)?
Sakery, Mike and Joe, do you want me to send you my setup too? And Sakery if you could send me your setup :)

Will be great help if you could send me your setup too 👍
 
Spurgey- So that time was with the mid turbo yes?

Easy- Hopefully people can use their common sense a little, someone has a penalty already with a couple being looked at.
 
Mid turbo for the Alfa, high end for the Merc. But both times are not much different tbh, its only the top speed thats increased, 1mph for Alfa, 2mph for Merc.
Ill send my setup to you as soon as possible :)
And I won by 4.7 seconds in the first race, and 0.3 seconds in the second race, but Pipi was 5 seconds ahead, but he spun 3 laps to the end. We were lapping at a similar pace for the whole race.

Send away :).
 
@Bret, I'm coming 33 mate lol Rainbow was on when I came home from school
 
Just like to say, there where people at Fuji not following the pit-line on the exit. About 3 drivers infront of me did it. Im going to watch the reply but I think theres gonna be a lot.
"• After a pit stop you must stay within the white pit lines and re join the race in a safe manner"
Also I saved both races, I can upload them but may take some time. Im going to watch the races again

When i spun stay 2 sec behind you then I try everthing to overtake you in last lap, but you close the door very well 👍

I think I saw the same at Fuji, haven't checked for this in the replays yet, so I'll do that now.
 
In the FGT we have the same rule that you have to stay within the pit line, but no one does, we just rejoin in a safe manner, and you dont gain any time from it anyway. I think for all the FGTers at least its just a habit.

I wasnt told this. The rules are rules you must obey them. I found 6 drivers in Fuji cutting it. Ive also found someone running a turbo on the opel. Im not saying who but 6 drivers cutting the pitline?? More than half the grid. Not accectable.

Dude in future don't rage and rant on here, lodge your complaints to the stewards and let them deal with it as they see fit 👍

Im not raging, Im putting the complaint on here. I'm just about to send it to the steward
 
As it says in the OP you can be penalized for publicly discussing events, they are to be talked over with the host or stewards
 
Well fair enough, the stewards may see fit to penalise someone if they gained an advantage or messed someone else up, but I dont really see why youre bothered, unless someone pulled out infront of you and made you crash or gained several seconds on you by turning left a few metres earlier.

EDIT: That reminds me, who do we make complaints to?

For you it would be sakery or worduphomes.
For all in division 2 lodge your complaints to berty or me

To your reply, yes someone pulled out infront off me. Thats all.
 
Spurgey- Pretty close then mate.

Carson- You are just a bit older than me then. I thought bungle was a bit scary :lol:

To anyone that is checking for the pit lane discipline ill tell you this. If there is someone within a reasonable distance when you leave the pits then you must stay within the white lines. If you are totally on your own it doesnt really cause any problems if you come straight out to find your line. You gotta use common sense with this as I refuse to write 300 pages of rules covering every eventuality!

Andy- You dont message the stewards and moan on here, just do the first one. Thats why we have them, we are one race in and you need to chill out.
 
Andy I believe your making a mountain out of a mole hill, I may have not followed the pitline but I still look behind me. Just because people don't follow the pitline it doesn't mean that they are not looking behind and driving without caution.

+1 Kudos to Pagey.
 
Oh, wordup takes complaints too, Sakery said he was being a steward so I wasnt sure, thanks 👍
And Andy, I see why youre annoyed now, if youre going to cross the line, you shouldnt do it when someones coming past you lol.

With respect surely if the pit line rule is a rule then its a habit we should all get into the one time you forget could be the one time you T bone another guy hurtling down the straight. Cant see how you can operate a sometimes yes sometimes no? Surely its simply safer to obide by the rule all of the time.:nervous:

Ok read hosts clarification fair enough back in ya box JB.:scared:
 
Just use common sense when coming out of the pits. If you dont you will lose points etc. That will be good enough.
 
As Bret, said, its just using your common sense really, if you want to go across the line, and dont check if its safe to do so, then youre just asking to crash into someone and get a penalty, if youre safe about it and dont mess people up I dont see why not.

EDIT: Damn you Bret for replying faster than me :grumpy:
 
Just as well you cant put a keyboard on a PS3, I think you would be lapping me :D And will the race results go up on the OP? Along with the fastest laps, or is it too complicated with the two divisions?
 
I solemnly swear to use the pit lane line and not drive like a tractor hogging the road.

You will not use profanity in the forums, nor link to content which contains offensive language without sufficient warning.

Thats what Im saying. Also Ive been told to stop posting about incidents or opinions on incidents so can people stop saying "Andy stop moaning....Andy I did nothing wrong" If your going to comment about me about moaning when your commenting on when Im moaning. Sorry I was moaning but any reason your still kicking it back up? This is aimed at everyone, not berty. Just using his post to answer a question 👍
