That sounds like great banter.

Gotta get everything set up, got back to school within the last 30 minutes.

Luigi isn't coming @Ninners is doing some of the race.

What's a good GT time at spa? I've done no testing this week and need something to aim for

 

[Yeratel84]

Apparently 2'34s

2:34's seem right. Got a room up entitled WARM UP.

 

[LancerEvo7]

Wheelstand reassembled, working on assembling wheel, then plugging in PS3 and I'll join you.

 

[Ninners]

Let's see if my form at Spa continues this season... Won in WSC VII in my second WSC race. Got pole and fastest lap in WSC VIII and was leading GTO until I had to leave... Let's see how this one goes pace wise...

 

[snowgt]

Apparently 2'34s

Ran a test with 5 different cars and got all of them in the 34's. Looks like everyone should have a chance tonight.

 

[Furinkazen]

Room open - will create a brand new one for the Q / Race.

 

[Furinkazen]

11 car GT-O quali underway!

 

[LancerEvo7]

This is great banter!

 

[Furinkazen]

First ever mid race red flag with cars still on track. Weather being set to fixed = still raining. GREAT JOB PD.

Oh Furi

 

[LancerEvo7]

Now PD logic is kicking in.

 

[Ninners]

Sounds like you guys are having fun.

Anyway quali I wasn't comfortable after my car had mild oversteer so went back to last seasons setup with a small tweak and felt much more comfortable. Jammy inched away before I upped my pace and caught back up (the mustang has great traction btw). I eventually passed him on the Kemmel straight and proceeded to pull away before he and Furi had a tangle leaving me with a large lead. Then the race was red flagged and I decided to leave a bit early.

FL 2:33.4 which is virtually identical to last season IIRC but with less HP.

 

[R0ssingt0n]

I think spa hates me, I've never done well there

 

[raceorama123432]

Okay then, so, I was having some lag with Furi and have been all weekend, this was shown by how he gave me damage at the restart but was perfectly fine (showing it was lag) and then on my screen we weren't three wide at Les Combes and Furi was three car lengths back. I let lancer back past both because he asked.and because the lag made him go off. Then I get DC'd out of nowhere

 

[LancerEvo7]

Finally.

 

[Furinkazen]

Congrats @LancerEvo7 and @smuffyatfcp on maiden GT6 wins.

Testing after - on lap 3 with tweaks already 15.7's on a full tank. Hmm.

 

[smuffyatfcp]

Not to bad considering I had half a laps practice and a setup from the Internet

 

[RACECAR]

Well, that went...who am I kidding, when does any of this ever work out for me anymore?

Seems no matter what I do, I'm just too slow. I can't even string together some laps without having a moment somewhere. Pretty dismal run for me and that's before I got disconnected.

And I just have to wonder what in the world was going on with the restart. Car in front of me goes off, I give him plenty of room to rejoin and somehow he still comes across the track and hits me Then for whatever reason, I try to pass @ranhammerR34 as I had a run and saw an opening on the inside but suddenly he kept coming over until I hit the grass and its into the wall I go.

 

[LancerEvo7]

I technically one-stopped that 57 lap race.

 

[raceorama123432]

🤬 waste of time on my end, sorry for any contact with anyone

 

[Furinkazen]

Down to 14's now at Spa.

 

[Panoz]

You anorexic Ferrari driver.

 

[LancerEvo7]

You anorexic Ferrari driver.

I would've pitted the lap after the red flag.

And I forgot I pitted with 2 to go to try to beat my best lap. So still a 2 stopper. Didn't really need to though.

 

[Furinkazen]

@FlyingFox or @RACECAR , PM me Quali times please?

Don't beat yourself up. This a tough series and a ton of us make mistakes during the race. Just keep at it and don't give up.

As for the incident, I will take the blame on that one with me.. but @RACECAR; it did looked like on my screen that you were lagging really bad on both incidents. The one with me the car was going all over the place into Eau Rouge and the one with pp123 looked wild too. As for my race, appologies to @Furinkazen for both incidents, the one near miss, and the one that messed up the front his Ford and the rear of the Dino. I tried to stay the hell out of everyone's way especially @LancerEvo7 because he was literally flying out there. Anyway, on to night race at Motegi. Should be really cool to do.

 

[RACECAR]

If I was lagging, then I do apologize. All I saw on my screen was one minute you moved over to the left so I assumed you were letting me by as you did earlier before the red flag and then suddenly, I got forced into the grass as you came back over. Guess that means PP thought I wasn't there either when he rejoined.

 

[Downhill Dino]

Does everyone clear their cache before joining?
