Almost had the win but I missed my breaking point one lap and crashed.
Just goes to prove. If the car grips and goes where I want it I am quite fast.

What times are people getting at Le Mans?

Cool nice one the blocking stuff is fine mate some of it is actually rather impressive frustrating but impressive:ouch:. The thing that drives me bonkers is the random braking its rarely in the same place ive walloped you up the booty more than once because of it. I found myself braking so early to avoid hitting you in the end around A/Ring that it left me acres of ground to try and make up again. Im sure your not trying to deliberately brake check i guess its part of the brick makeup but it makes my edgy as hell.:nervous:

Can safely say the current Q system will be dropped after this season probably to free up more time for incident watching.:lol::nervous:

One thing I've learnt when attacking is to not try and overtake mid-corner. If you can get it done under braking then great. But If you try to pull a move mid-corner, the guy in front will most likely not know your there as he is concentrating on hitting apex's and stuff and it might result in contact.

So If I can't get the overtake done under braking, I back off before the corner so there is a little gap between cars, then really attack the corner and use my extra cornering speed to get a really good exit and overtake him under acceleration.
 
I think something like a F1 style quali system would work :). 1st 10 minutes a shoot out and the top 6/7 go through to a final shoot out for pole positions, and collisions would have to be turned off for quali then back on for the race.

Just an 💡

Plenty of time to think as Im guessing with Christmas and New Year no series would start for a while after this one. :p

the only problem with all other types of quali is corner cutting :(

Correct then theres the car checks, what we may come up with will be very simple wont involve you guys turning a wheel infact early days so we'll see.:)

I know what it is.

Points leader either starts first or last right?
 
If your looking at changing qually, remember that penalties can be switched on in free run, meaning if somebody does corner cut they will be penalised instantly

DO I GET 3RD?!??!

Just a suggestion toads, but I hear you discussing about reputations and public rants and such... why not attempt to put a serious block on that through negative points... i.e. the more you do the more you stain your points total.

Just an idea 👍

only thing with q in free run now is the draft.
 
Draft and the fact the pens system on most tracks is frankly err draft. We also need to carry out the car regulation checks so a Q on the night is technically out i think.

Stu and Rolo have both agreed to help with stewarding to fair guys i hope you agree:tup: Thanks to those who also offered to help your names will be kept on the back burner.:)

Spurgy has kindly offered to help balance the S6 cars further the update may have thrown a spanner or two in the works may not be all bad though:sly::crazy:
 
Right guys moving on...lets think positive from now on.:)

Also ive put the laps in the OP and nurb results will be up later.

@ spurgy did you get my memo about your horn? please get it sorted or change button configure so it doesnt happen again :)
 
Just read your edit Gedi, and yeh, the main horn button gets stuck behind the plastic surrounding it, as long as I don't hit it, it shouldn't get stuck, but I will make sure to check if I ever hear any beeping 👍

I hate to say it but I can go faster.

That was just a get a time to compare with people and see how the car feels not a serious timed lap.
