Good looking Forward to GP/F after realizing what a nightmare Daytona was/is

I'm wrong then! Geez, I practically admitted that in what I said...

You won the race, good job, end of the story. I'm obviously just being a cry baby over this so I'm done with it, move on!

Thank you, jeez
 
Yup, fair clean racing earnt you that decisive victory.

Anyone done any testing at Nurb? Seems 1:58's are the expected times so has anyone bested 1:58?
 
I did a 57.999 in the 12c. A while ago I might add.
 
I'll see what I can do. Gonna be testing the Ford also. Chrome with red wheels...sexy :)
 
Yeah I'm thinking I'll swap to a carbon black McLaren, orange in the non GT1 classes has brought me nothing but contact and arguments...Plus there's like 2-3 other cars using it so it's no so special anymore :(
 
So we have only two races left: GP/F & Sarthe '09 w/ chicanes? And hopefully, these last races will go smoothly.

NOTE: I'd set a 1:32 best lap on the actual race, but a 1:34 on the qualys on Daytona :grumpy:

I drafted on some people, so that's probably the culprit.

@ Rocko

The Audi R8 road version?
 
One thing I don't understand is people passing on the side with less room when I leave room for cars to pass. For instance on the straight portions of the track I move toward the barrier to allow passing room on the left, and yet LMPs pass between me and the wall with enough room for us to fist-bump. It's happened enough times that I'm baffled by it. I'm clearly moving to let you by lol.

It's like lmps aren't willing to give up the perfect line into the corner sometimes and will pass where there isn't room to get the right entry angle. Though it isn't necessary to hold the outside line through like 5 miles of straitaway. Then again in this race it was hard to tell when I was glitching. Might have been really tough to pass me this time around.

Only curious :)

Hmm same here happened to me lol
 
@ TT13

I tend to do that sometimes, esp. on the speedway. I always went the opposite way of where I suppose to go. I nearly crashed or spun out when I made this decision. I think it's because of the tremendous speed, as it only leaves you a few seconds to decide while simultaneously controlling the car. And maybe the occasional lag on some people interferes a bit, too.

@ Cowboys

I did it to you, as well. For example on one situation a few seconds before the finish line, you left a huge spot on the right that I supposed to use to pass you, but instead I took the other way. I would draft on you sometimes to gain some speed, and take the opposite direction, too.

Yes that one :) the V10 hopefully
 
The best videos are the last ones. Tried to catch all the action! Got five more there are uploading now!
 
Dude that guy I'm so sorry! lmao I thought that was you crashing into me. From my screen you were glitching but it was obviously me. Holy crap.
 
No problem its racing on psn. Not your fault! Not mad at anyone! Just showing highlights from the race, didnt catch everything. Replay need rewind!
 
Got new videos!! Highlights from the race!

More to come later!!

Sorry about the bump, wasnt sure where you were going and made my decision to late and tapped you.

Lol yea wtf was with the pink vette and the ford, stopped on track (causing me to run into them at 160mph). It seemed they wanted to have a demo derby in the race with each other.

fwiw TT13 didn't glitch that bad on my screen, though did glitch around occasionally.
 
Sorry bout that, whenever one of us crashed we'd wait for each other, eventually we stopped because we were causing too many problems :)
 
wohoo mid ohio!

Ken Wilden's XKR looks like me driving it out there. Squirrely!

lol at the crashes. One suggestion unless it's nurburgring I use full view of the map and after a wreck first thing I look for is approaching arrows. We don't have yellow flags so I'll usually stay put unless I'm in the middle of the track and no one can go around, then move out of the way and wait for a clear. Other racers should be watching the arrows also and if one goes sideways...\


SLOW DOWN. :)
