i Cant if 9pm uk time, is too early for me, im live in brazil
 
Supposed to be 8pm but I don't think i'm gonna be able to make it, Nate can you take over this one race please? I've got so much work to do as i'm off to Le Mans tomorrow.

I'l try and get there for it but if not then it would be great if Nate or Alex or someone can run it tonight - it's just a matter of hosting the room and keeping note of the points!
 
As it's the enduro I can't start too late as I have an exam tomorrow, 7:00 ish would be fine, it's just sorting out connection issues etc that will slow it down.

Points?

Thought tonight was a non point event? (Trail run)?
 
I got a biology exam tommorow, me and chris will host but we'll start at 7pm

Ok, judging by the 1st page, I didn't make it into the list intime, although I see Rufus needs a team-mate? If this is still the case, I would be more than willing to join forces?

I still won't be able to make pre-season on the 6th though.....

Yeah, by my calculations their are 14 entrants on the first page, plus jimmy driving for Mugen Honda leaves one space free in my team. So yeah, I'd be more than happy to have a team mate :) I'm feeling Alpina BMW as a team, if you're alright with it? Kinda ties the car and the colour together.

And to the other guys who asked, I'm choosing Dave cos he's been here from the start, so it only seems fair, right?
 
Sadly it looks like we're going to have to call this one off for tonight guys :(.

There's just not enough people available to do the 5 laps on Nurburg.

We'll have to push it back to a later date, when everyone can make it.

Chris.
 
Sorry guys, I must appologise as i wont be back from la sarthe until next monday night so if you boys could handle that one and i'l take the rest over.

sorry and cheers for your efforts
 
well i was just gonna come along.. whats happening?

Nevrmind. i sign in to find nate is not in a game and kickstart and alex have just signed out...
 
Hi :) Without reading the whole thread, I'm not sure if theres a spot available or not?

If there is, just let me know what team needs a driver and I'd gladly join in 👍

sorry mate, checked on here and seems like not many people can make it tonight cos of exams etc, guessin it's gonna be rescheduled for next week
 
Well, i think the best way is make a race in weekends, because everyone is free.
 
Yeh I'll try and reschedule this race for next tuesday...
 
Alpina BMW sounds perfect to me mate :) I will dig out my 330 and go testing :) If you wouldn't mind, could you send me over some of your settings so I can try see what I can do? I use DS3 if that makes any difference!

HMSMotorsport: Could you add me as Rufus' team mate please? Team: Alpina BMW - car - BMW 330i

Cheers,

Dave

Yep, sure. They'll more than likely be horrendously bad settings though! Haha. There's something that just doesn't feel right about the car. I use a DS3 too :)
Are you alright for the paint chip or do you want me to send you one?
 
Anyone up for some racing tonight??
I don't drive my car since last week.
 
what colour you using matey? Il be available from friday onwards if you wanna do some testing, see what we can think up between us?
 
Taiga Green. It's a BMW colour from the 2002 T. I've got a few of them I think, if you need/want it. And yeah, that sounds good. I should be revising a lot at the moment, but I'm sure I'll fit some testing/racing in haha.
 
I will try and be online at about 8:30 tonight mate if thats any use to you? Bring your headset :D I will add you when I go on too
 
No, sorry I'me going to the pub tonight. How about tomorrow, same time? And I've already added you :D
 
Yeah, thats cool mate!! :) I got the colour by the way ;)


I must say, the new Seasonals are a lot better than previous efforts! for once, I haven't managed to gold any of them yet!

Love the fact that if you run one side of tyres through the dirt, that side of the controller vibrates, and eventually smoothes out too, and it causes you to slide deep into the corner - properly cool :cool:
 
Practice room is up! My Lounge.
 
so when is the first point scoring round going ahead?

Did you guys also see the f1? Button drove like he was possessed!! What a race, simply spectacular!! Makes me wanna have a properly wet race haha
 
Hoping this finally kicks off tonight :)

That race was unreal. Button sure showed vettle how to drive. All the problems he had, 6 times in the pits. 21nd to 1st place is unbelievable. It's true McLaren does have the pace to catch the red bulls.
 
Even Schamacher put in a decent performance for once! That will give him a serious confidence boost when it comes to driving like he rightly deserves to be! I was always sceptical about wether he made the right choice in making a come-back, but yesterday showed he made the right decision. Proper nose to tail racing, unreal weather, hell, this is how EVERY F1 race needs to be :P

I loved seeing Seb under pressure on that last lap, Button breathing down his neck, you could really see him ringing the RBR through the corners, and even got a little sideways - which is when I started to wonder if he was perhaps trying a little too hard......


With regards to our own championship, firstly, I wanna apologise to Mcglone - I bumped you into the gravel trap the other night at Autumn Ring, pure mistake, and I know you were annoyed, sorry dude, honest mistake, I should have been paying more attention, you braked a little earlier than I was expecting haha :P

Secondly, did I read somewhere that HMSMotorsport wanted to postpone the first race until Tuesday, when he is back from Le Mans? He better sling up some great shots! Otherwise I vote that he starts last of every race this season!!

That or we start without him! I just wanna race, and get some points down, even if I'm not gonna be up the top of the leaderboard.......

What do you say guys???
