Daily Races with Friends, Fridays @ 9pm EST. All Drivers Welcome.

Chevy Heavy · Jan 25, 2020

A lot of fun last night. I literally walked in the door from work as the lobby opened, talk about timing. I didn't touch the first two dailies this week because I had too much fun in the rain at Spa and it showed. Congrats to @RacingGrandpa on his win and of course to @Invisigoth for his comic relief. :lol:

The SSRX race was just like Talladega as @sturk0167 mentioned in his post. I saw a hole at the end and went for it only to get tapped into the pits lmao. Nice air there @Pigems.

Hmmm, something's not quite right here.

Invisigoth · Jan 29, 2020

Took a while to go through the footage, but anyway... WARNING: lots of pics.

Can you believe I got a clean race bonus for pulling this 🤬?

We're going bowling, bowling. Gotta keep the good times rollin......

Length = Width.... I thought I could make my car wider :embarrassed:

.

Ya just know this can't end well...

Aaaand a few frames later. Can you believe I actually managed to keep it off the grass...will all of the driver aids off :eek:

!
Please note the lack of damage on the side the other cars were on :confused:

.

After messing up the next corner I made contact with the concrete... please note, the concrete is on the *right* hand side of the left hander...

Length = Width (this seems to be a common theme for the night :crazy:

.

Reliving my glory days! The competition was tight, but with my superior driving ability, even after this spin, I *still* won! I'm a freakin legend

!
Rather than rotating three times trying to get faced in the right direction, I kinda think I should have just reversed over the finish line... would have been less painful for the spectators :crazy:

. BTW, what *did* happen with that race? Was there some kinda boogyman at the chicane, or did everyone decide they would quit once they got to the chicane one by one?

I found a new racing line at Leguna Seca :embarrassed:

.

Another four wheel drift, cause @Pigems pics cars that can be chucked at corners... it's not fast, but it looks kewl :lol:

.

Here's me in P2... ya just know this isn't gunna end well :scared:

. ....

The yellow car hits the yellow car (not to be confused with the yellow car), which in turn hits me. According to the rules of engagement I've been reading in the daily thread, it's my responsibility to revenge punt the yellow car......

Somehow I managed to keep it going kinda sorta forward in a rally drift. Here's my ultra safe re-entry onto the track..by the time I unghosted, I was in last place

.

Last pic, second to last corner, another four wheel drift chucking it in

Hope you enjoyed my slide show :dopey:

Wow, you're early this week :lol:

. I didn't even realise it was that time of the week again. Not sure if I will be able to make it, I have family coming over, just not sure what time, but I think about the time we usualy start :crazy:

. I'd rather be racing

I hope you’re able to make it, maybe they’ll be fashionably late.

The Ferrari can be a little, ahhh....tricky, let’s go with tricky. :lol:

So I wanted to give everyone a little extra notice in case they want to practice.

Invisigoth · Jan 31, 2020

Went looking for a livery for the bus. Holy crap! There are *so* many liveries! I should have been a bit more specific with my search, I ended up looking at all the liveries. In my world, the livery I was looking for was the most obvious and in my world one of the most popular... apparently not. I had to wade through hundreds of liveries to find an example of what I was after.

It was a fereakish journey, but I saw a few things along the way. There are so many kewl bus liveries that must have taken a long time to do. I also noticed a few trends. I musta seen at least 20 Mystery Machine liveries. Quite a few people seem to use the bus as a bill board to protest issues with the game. The other trend I saw was a lot of busses with thank you's to their followers. I'm kinda tempted to do a rear bumper decal "Are you following me?" :lol:

Now that would be a great one.

Just tell them to gather around and watch the races. I'm sure we'll put on an entertaining show.

I'll be there in my Indy 500 Pace Car edition Corv … erm Ferrari.

sturk0167 · Jan 31, 2020

Well. I finally took the time to figure out how to use the Sharefactory ap (sort of). I even figured out how to add music. 👍

I put together a montage of my practice for tonight's bonus race #3. :lol:

Here's how you drive the Streets of Willow Springs track, for those who aren't familiar.
Note how nice and clean the paint looks at the beginning. :lol:

Enjoy

That track doesn't have many jumps, but I think I found them all. 👍

*Best lap was 5:10*

Since I'm *so* impressed with Ferrari's I went with an appropriately macho livery:

I'll be taking the night off. Work is being a bunch of dicks & we gotta go in tomorrow.

Granadier · Feb 1, 2020

Amazing races tonight. The bonus combos were so much fun. I wish we could get that Group C only matchup as a daily race.

Gotta say though, I think the liveries made the night. Personal favorites were @Invisigoth ’s “It’s Pigems’ Fault” decal and @GOTMAXPOWER ’s Sambabus spanning “INVISIGOTH RESTART THE LOBBY” :lol:

Invisigoth · Feb 1, 2020

My relatives have been and gone. lets race! Oh wait, we already did... as you were.....

The_Tullster · Feb 1, 2020

My replays have been shared if anyone's interested. Tagged GTP and TPC as usual.

Pigems · Feb 1, 2020

Thanks again to everyone who came out last night! What an awesome night of racing that was, well done by all!! All replays are now shared and tagged GTP and TPC. :cheers:
