It was me, bro. Not sure if I was hit or not, definitely surprised the car wouldn't brake so there must have been a love tap from somewhere plus draft effects.

Second lap I did get rear ended there and into the wall again. Third lap pushed off into the grass on a straight.

6th to last to 15th. Very disappointed to miss out on my first 1000+ points finish. Walked away with 399...

The draft gets tricky, especially a sharp turns like that. I always get nervous around turns like this when doing these races.
Dang, sorry to hear. :/

Forgot to say I'm sorry, my fault or not, I did sideswipe you and that left me feeling bad for hitting a GTP member. Glad it didn't mess you up too bad.

Well it is my first post. Greeting from Louisiana. I got 2nd in the carts and 19th in the seaside race. started 12th then got punted by a lunge in the 5th corner by someone who couldn't help sticking in the inside when I had the line. Then I made a bunch of mistakes trying to push. Ahh well. time to practice for the next round , GR1 on interlargos. should be fun..

@Tidgney

I just watched Super GT YouTube video of the St Croix race with you and the Aston battling each other. The respect and space you gave each other was great to watch, turn after turn after turn.

I had a really fun and competitive Nations Cup race with @hellZfirE and others. I'm uploading the direct replay to GT Sport and will feature the race on my YouTube channel when I get the chance.

This is how my race was ruined. Still some how manged to finish 8th.

 

[Sidawg2]

What timeslot actually? The one with Nik or the first one?

First one with Jun Jeeen amongst others. Mostly Aussies.

Sooooo Italy can now enter. Pass it on.

They can enter the World Finals? Tagging @Giorgio_57 if he is interested.

Same thing that happened to me !! For me this type of racing makes it a lot less fun for me, dive bombing the corners. I'm not the best and I out brake myself a good bit. but I make a hardy effort not to do this.

 

[schnick]

In the end I didn't race. My practice got worse and I was doing 59s
Someone telling me they couldn't move their arms after the race didn't help me motivate myself either

I was worried about my arms too, nearly forgot I could change the FFB settings, I settled on 2/5 for my g29 but moot point now

It's all good! No worries. :]

What a cracking night of racing, I managed to do much better than expected in the manufacturers even though the car is shocking and Nations cup... well check out the clip (Spoiler if you want to watch VoD after)!



Another brilliant stream and thanks for the questions @RZQSPEED and everyone who tuned in was bloody brilliant! Still not fully liking the quality on stream so I'll try up the bitrate another 500 (Keep upping it each week). Once we hit a certain number it can go back to 1080 .

You did a great job with that Pug and always impressed with your sportsmanship...but what happened in lap 11/Mfr race between mthomas 95 and GTBE-MxSteve14?

"...some carnage, revenge type killings..."

Gonna be a little vague here; one of my friends is in that clip and he's had problems with a certain driver in this and previous races. Gonna be nervous if they're in my lobby.

Was this friend by any chance in a Nations race with the certain driver in question?

Not sure (yet). He hasn't told me anything about the Nations race.
E- he didn't do nations race today

 

[TetsuKobura]

I'm only asking because I remember after the race someone called out someone else for being dirty and wrecking them during nations. I hope it isn't me because I didn't get a penalty all race, or in the first race I did this season.

Ohh. Not sure which races they've been in specifically but they have history (and he told me who it was but I'm not going to name them, but it's not you.).

 

[RZQSPEED]

Maybe Ford will have a defending Live Event champion thanks to Italy's Giorgio being in said manufacturer for the 2018 Series.

@nissman is still disappointed that Slovenia is not included...

It would be amazing if seed_striker ever learned how to drive... That's far* from the first time he hit me like that(or worse).

I learned long ago to always keep at least one car between me and him.

Either a lot of the aliens stayed away from the karts or did other time slots I can't see because the points offered were pretty bad. My room had a lot of guys right around my pace or a bit quicker so I feared a crashfest. It wasn't as bad but I did stay at the rear of the lead pack of around 8~10 cars. It didn't thin out as much as expected so I had to start fighting harder. I was close to getting the lead one time but got shuffled back again. Somewhere in those last laps, incidents happened and a few guys got penalties. That helped me steal 3rd at the line. Okay experience but I enjoyed yesterday's practice race far better.

I was expecting a bad night at Dragon Trail. My weak track and the Jag only made it even weaker. I was so desperate to find speed that I changed my driving view back to bumper cam. The good news is that I ran about a good a Q lap as I could've done. The bad news is that so many were just a tenth or two faster. 9th in this room when an earlier slot offering slightly less points would've put me on the pole! Start did not go smoothly as I was struggling not to hit cars ahead while I was scared of being run over thanks to brakes out of a Lada Riva. I did get shuffled back and there was small contact but the plan was to survive, save fuel and jump everyone in the pits.

For the first time in maybe ever, that actually worked to perfection. That along with several people crashing for reasons I don't know yet got me up to 5th. My fellow Jag rival was actually behind me trying to catch back up. I flung it at the bus stop for max speed. I made it; he did not. The race looked incredibly tough so 5th place was a welcome surprise.

The Mayor Halfaz of region US I see

 

[SMinded31]

Karts....what. the. Efff.
Was in a decent room of mainly A+/S players. Qualified 4th. Stayed between 1st and 3rd up to lap 13 I believe and got plowed from behind into T1. Back to 11th. Worked way back to 3rd and it HAPPENED AGAIN. Tried to come back again to no avail. What should have been easy points ruined by people that cant judge a brake point.

 

[perrolocomcquee]

This was my manu race. Hope u guys enjoy. My Q was far from good, so i suffered battling with @Windfire1010 and @Turismo-Lester. It was an intense battle.

Some strong language at some moments

Using the Hyundai was like taking a knife to a gun fight. I was so surprised when I out qualified you and Lester. Just had to much high speed understeer to keep up.

I wasn’t able to do a good lap after pits for fresh tires during Qualy, but whatever. U did better at the end.
U were deiving the crap out of that Hyundai

I hope you guys aren't talking about me I'm the bright chrome pink mustang in the center of that pack all the way through lap one. I remember turning around at the end of the "S"s and seeing you getting swarmed. It was certainly the busiest pack I've raced in like that.

Here's the lap one mayhem from my point of view it was fun.

 

[Cabelmania]

Yuuup. They updated the terms.

Where ? I checked the site, but it still the same for me; no Italy BTW I didn't feel good last night, so I skipped the races
