Had to restart race 2 and matty leaving as his connection was here there and everywhere :nervous:

Problems with IMMORTAL at the moment who missed race 1 and is insisting on racing in race 2 which is against rules :/.

7 people in Div 2 when we get under way eventually, very disapointed by the numbers, not happy 👎
 
I'm top candidate for the lemon this week.. And I'm sure people from D2 will agree with that..

First race I forgot to buy racing tyres so I bought softs first so that they were in the car, and then I bought some mediums and hards, bought the hards last and forgot that meant it would have hards in at the start.. :grumpy: and that's only race 1..

So I asked Tom if I could leave to reset router and clear cache as I wasn't near anyone in race one connection didn't bother anyone.. But I noticed it cause triangles were flying everywhere on my map.. So when I get back I have pole (would of had it anyway cause i finnished last) and I got a decent start, maybe cause it was good or people were afraid to pass me.. I'll never know until they say so I had to quit so they could start..

So I came 8th and DNS..

Bad start..

Had to quit so they could start?

My lag was to bad to race with me on track and they had to restart the start cause my lag cause a few crashes..

Do my eyes deceive me, or does matty's car lag so bad! ;)
 
Ah well guys, I think I'm calling it quits now.

No, it's actually the best thing to do right now. I don't feel comfortable driving a car that constantly fights its tires. The only way I could 3 stop that race was change to hards after the short medium stint (they lasted 4 laps) while it looks like some people there were driving with softs and still getting no problems with a 2 or 3 stopper. I have said it before and say it again - when changing the tire wear, PD fixed something that wasn't broken.

However, remember that at least now you can definitely have one more relatively fast racer in the Division 1.

Totally agree with you on the tyre wear. Aint fun anymore!
 
Verry sad i got disconect 5 minutes before first race.
And i have had problems 20 minutes.
Then i was there for race 2 and all have sai i dont can drive only 7 driver that is not ok.
 
Tyre wear oh my god, what the????

Never using racing hards again, 2 stop on those was not the way to go :(

3 stops on Racing Softs FTW from now!
 
Esprit how do you get your tires to last that long yet go so fast?

You were not allowed to race as you missed the first race, thus meaning you're not allowed to race in the endurance.
 
Im grumpy that I didn't win when I thought I would so I am randomly calling cheat.

You 100% sure Carb no hard feelings if you want out.?👍

Welldone Esprit softs will do 7 laps if you treat them right not easy in the heat of battle i admit.:nervous:
 
So we give your spot to Tony or do you want to sleep on it?

Sleep on it. However I don't see much improvement when, as I mentioned, I'm supposed to use racing hards as the only means of getting 3 stops in a race.

If all the Jags struggled the same Carb then maybe we could act the Lexus is notoriously bad and it proved it again tonight it is what it is fella.:dopey: Will pm you tomorrow no panic right now to decide.👍
 
Sorry everyone for race1 on that long right hander.. I sneezed just as i got there and had to get some tissue lol
 
Gedi, JB, I know the series has started but is there any chance we can change to Race Hards only for the feature? It would turn the race back into a 1/2 stopper and be kinder to the guys in the Jag especially.
