OK, Batracer is officially screwy.

First race of Total Mayhem completed. Total amount of DNFs (in the whole field): ZERO.
F1 2002: 6 finishes, 6 DNFs (just me alone!).

:ouch:

I'm worried that people might be scamming us by not setting to 100.

That said, i'm sure that the majority of us did, but we still had the same result.

Strange.

You can be sure that someone is not playing fair, or won't be after a couple of rounds. Maybe it's because we all have the same settings that accidents aren't happening.

That's what I was thinking. Since we all have 100 everything, and the cars are exactly the same, the only variable is tyre wear. If most the people have more or less the same tyre wear, then you're going to be going more or less exactly the same speed as everyone else. Therefore it's going to be hard to make up lose places. Take me for example. I think I just swapped from 15th to 13th the whole race.
 
I dropped from pole to sixth, but that was only because I started on light wear because of practice and warmup.
 
Y'know, that's a good thought. I never thought of that.

...but I think that theoretically it could still be competitive. If someone messes up and loses half their runs both times (*cough* me) they might not have a perfect setup. And some people might get a lousy start while others rocket. And there's always self-enforced errors and failures...

But we'll have to see if any changes are necessary in a few races.
 
I say ban practice and warmup (so you all have the same tires)make all cars have the same setup .... and set everything to 100 on teh setup make driving styles the same race startgy same and see who can win the race should be fun to see that lol
 
w00t, first place in my pub V8 game after a seventh place in Barbagallo Race 1! And my team has been first throughout. 👍

Meanwhile, in BTCC Production, I have a) had fastest practice for Brands Hatch GP Sprint, b) crashed in qualifying (finished seventh in class), c)gained pole for feature race, and d) crashed out at Druids in the second lap. Bah. 👎
 
*kicks thread* Stay alive, you.

Anyways, Season 4 is going nowhere fast, but we got nine retirements in Total Mayhem today - and this in the sprint race! :dopey: I'm sorry, I find carnage just so interesting, especially when I'm not part of it :sly:
 
Hmpf...my car zonked out and ended up dropping me five places. Bah.

Oh, and I earned my second pole in BTCC, this one at Oulton Park sprint (my home race), maybe this time I'll finish the race.
 
I got a win in Champ car, despite both my teammates being morons.

When a spot comes available for me, are there two people interested in joining me for a ChampCar season?

I'm there Dunc, count me in
 
Hey Tristan, how goes that V8 series of yours? Have you held on to the position I got you?

P.S. - I won that Oulton Park sprint, my first win ever! :D Champagne everywhere!

Still got the position, working hard to keep it there, and gaining on the 4th spot, only 51 points behind, although Vaarala has moved into 3rd, and I am now chasing Stidolph in the DJR!

P.S. - I am sure you mean Oran Park! :lol:

P.P.S - My teammate is still down in 14th! :lol: loser!

-edit-
5th in qualifying at Symmons plains

4th fastest in the warmup with 3 hours to go!
 
Actually, I was referring to the BTCC game I mentioned earlier. In fact, my highest V8 finish so far is third place, yet I am leading by 93 points after eight rounds! How silly. :confused:

Vaarala was in my Champcar game where he got :dunce: third place!
 
I should have empty slots, but i'm still waiting for finished games to be removed. I'll let you all know when that happens. We have to be quick though. When i start the team, two people have 10mins to join it.

*edit*
Slots are free. I'm ready when you guys are.

oh :dunce:

Slow and steady
 
Whoa!! I'm on pole! I think that's a first! 👍

Time to turn this season around and score 57 points in 3 races (so I can beat Dubois, who will DNF all 3 times)! :dopey: Or at least a win would be awesome.
 
there is a private game going on, but there will be a new one starting soon.
 
We are already running an F1 06, so you probably won't get any takers.
