My nominations:

Cleanest Driver: RacingWorld
Most Aggressive Driver: braunracing
Fastest Driver: flakypastry
The most fun I had with: RacingWorld, rallymorten, MrMelancholy

And my stupid broken DS3 cost me a race win or maybe a second place... :(
 
I can't believe how the first race ended. Second race was stupid (For me as I effed up because poor judgement or I was high don't know). And third was ok.

Please note for next time:

Be there at latest at 00. At 05 exactly the weight checks will begin (assumed it won't be scrapped), qualifying will start WHEN GREEN IS GIVEN and you'll have 1 lap. Please leave enough room for each other, at least a few seconds.

When going from R1 to R2, worked fine but we need the process speeded a bit.

I'll do what has to be done when starting R3. All you need to do is wait in the pits, and when you see the starting order, leave in it or at least in the end line up in the correct order, the only reason I might move is because I need to check if everything is right :)

Also, 👍 to you being "high" as you put it Sparky :lol:

I don't know what was up with me! I can't believe I fell all the way back to 10th on race 2 or 7th/8th on race 3.
 
You were on SS on race 2 whilst most of us were on RH. That explains why... :)
 
I chose RH's for R1 and chose SS's for R2. I thought you had to change tyres for each race.
 
...whilst most of the others used SS in the 1st and RH in the 2nd race.
 
I don't see much of the difference between SS and RH.
 
Tyre notes from Race 1:

RH:
Braun, Straffe, sparky, Mel. Rest on SS.

Race 2:

Same guys on SS.

I haven't looked at any incidents, but the stewards demand FlakyPastry to put the car for share to allow stewarding

Still don't understand Flaky's car.

No. This could be clarified in the OP of this thread.

...whilst most of the others used SS in the 1st and RH in the 2nd race.

I got a second place by avoiding that strategy.

AUP; please read it, Sparky. We don't mention illegal activities on GTP, please.

I like this thread. This series is the last fun series on GT5, so... Let's keep it alive.


As for the line-up, look for the name ahead of you. That's all that matters. Nothing else matters, but passing the car in front, right?

Duh, I am fun!

And, flaky beat me on Sports tires, while I was on Racing tires. I swear, I had him, 'til I ate that wall. Walls don't taste good.


Stewards announcement:

I have lots of stuff to investigate, but not yet. My recommendations will be sent to rallymorten before Monday, I promise.

Among the checks:

first few laps of race 3 - who was divebombing?! My rear bumper doesn't appreciate this.

tires in Races 1 & 2 - I'll be checking, guys.

General conduct - send me and Morten your PMs

Sarcasm radar is failing for you ain't it mel? I was joking. I fraggin hate Madrid with a passion so great that if I ever learned Japanese I'll go write a letter to PD about how much I hate it.

Thanks, it was fun racing you aswell, you should think about joining the WRS, we always welcome fair and clean drivers....
hehe I hear you guys thinking : there he goes again Mr Proper ;)

Looking forward to a great race weekend so nothing could bad temper me today :) This weekend we have more then 15hrs of racing to watch, first ELMS on saturday, sunday F1, WEC and BES..... ah you gotta love it ....
 
I personally think it's one of the best city tracks... :)
Best City Track has always and will always be Special Stage Route 5, Madrid is stupid. Even Rome, which had a better form in GT2 and GT3 is better than the circus that is Madrid.
 
I'm thinking about joining the WRS! :) I just think I need a bit more experience so that I become cleaner and more consistent.
 
Online Competitions category. It's so famous that you'll find it instantly.

I would not wait, do your qualifier, as it can take a few weeks for the new batch to come out.... you can join the academy and development league to improve on your skills....and you are racing in the meantime... if you need help or want to know anything, feel free to PM me...
