You didn't.

As we've explained several times without success, if there are only 6 people left in Qualifying, then you are automatically through.

I asked everyone to finish anyway after Ingo disconnected so replays could be saved.

It's a shame for @DR_ingo5 that he had connection issues, because he could have raced after all... I made a mistake in running Pre-Q this week, it didn't need to be run as there were 7 spaces open and not the normal 6.

OK. But you said to finish the race.
 
I always quite liked Motegi East.

Was good racing with you guys again. Didn't do too badly considering I haven't played the game for months.

Can't be there next week; going to see the folks over the Easter. Be back for Brands Hatch though
 
wow what a day. things were looking good (again) then i dc'd in qualy. well done on your debut hurley.
race 2 has been waiting all season, you guys have seen the car is capable but my luck has been appaling. YES!

was weezys debut lol
 
I think Ian is basically champion-elect now.

He can afford to have his two worst scores of the season in the remaining 2 rounds, and quade (who is his nearest challenger after drops) would still need to score about 65 points in the last two rounds to overhaul him.
 
Race 1 was a bit iffy but I was glad to salvage 8th. Race 2 was much better with my 2nd being my best result yet this series.

Yes it will be hard for quade but he still has a shot

Volvo was just too fast in the straight today , if motegi was an eariler round i would have been protesting for it to be slowed down early in the season

He has been super consistent though so it is not just the car, he deserves it if/when he wins it

No triple championship for me :( but teams title is ours :) !!!!!

Then congratulations for him. When the official results are going to be published.

WARNING- I'm not offending anyone. I'm just asking. I'm just afraid to be banned from another championship just like STCC in Monza. Do I need to drop my score point in championship?

Results probably Saturday once stewarding work is done.

You've already used up both of your drop scores among your many zeros :sly:

Back to ff next season I think

BMW was a great experience and I really enjoy the drive but the straightline speed overtaking capabilities are a liabilty

Gonna be running C4 and BMW myself for s8 not sure which yet, Love the C4, has great handling, no understeer, just needs less body roll. BMW just is my type of car though :)

I'd love to win the championship and although I've got a lead, I can't let my guard down, Quade could very easily manage 65 points in the final rounds, he's very quick and that BMW will certainly be fast around Brands GP. 👍

Anything could happen yet.

Yep, the Volvo is fast down the straights, thank god that it is though, because the difference in cornering speed is fairly substantial too. I couldn't shake those BMW's off my tail, what a race...:lol:

I've been lucky this season, no engine failures (yet) which is lovely considering that I exited the Megane's because of my connection playing up. Finally things seem to be pretty smooth for me. :)

buying some luck for s8 ;)
 
Wanna apologize to everyon, especially hurley for my poor driving this week. All I could think about was beating Ian and I forgot the reason I do this is for fun. I'll make sure my focus and driving standards are back up to par next week. I took out my teammate in the melee in R2 and ended his shot at the title which is pretty much the worst thing I could do.:(
 
My S7 is over really, am top scirocco (which is what matters to me :P) but for next season I am going to put my very best efforts into stopping Ian getting a double ;)

P.S. I am okay to race last 2 races, mine and Hurleys connection seems to have settled down!
