Right... the WSR F3 at the Nurburgring is like this:

If you start in the midfield you die (once you reach the first corner)

If you hit a bump you die

If you go as far as a millimeter of the track you die much

If you set the transmission too high like me you die slowly, but surely

I later had another go at the Nurburgring GP/F, and actually got the time down to 1:29.8. My offline record for the Nurburgring GP/F is 1:28.8, so that lap may have just been better than the offline lap (better driving). Of course, this isn't even a real TT, I just really enjoy running banzai laps by myself, with just me and my car, in an attempt to one day become as fast as IMMORTALPILOT.

I have a lot of ground to make up, that's for sure.

So, ladies and gents. I once again, am deeply sorry for what I caused last night
Although I was pissed off about the grief.I was getting, I shouldn't have tried to pin the blame on other people. All that happened that you think was my fault, I agree and.accept.the blame I am given. And as stated above, I am deeply sorry. :indiff:I

chill mate, no worries :cheers:


Safety car rule, well let's wait and see lol.

Ok, as it is now we have 20 sign ups. The 2 new TRL guys would be put in as reserves. Or, if they get added, i'd have to push out old GTOR friends who have been around for awhile and great guys. I can't do that.

So what i'm going to propose is a kind of 107% rule. Say top 10 race each week. The rest compete in a midweek TT when they can and the top 6 race. opinions?

With the TRL guys around, I suggest you tweak the rule to, let's say, 117%. Otherwise there will only be 3 qualified guys on the grid. :lol:

Tonight i'll open up a TT club event. Top 10 in championship locked in but top 5 in the TT go through. Sounds fair?
 
Where it says other, @True-blue-8, in the OP under entry list. Does this mean we can run any other car colour to the ones on the official list?

Click to expand...
yep. You guys aren't actually assigned to a team, so will take the seat of what is available
 
Mikey24
So do I have to race for Honda?
Click to expand...
No. If you get through, you'll drive for a team that doesn't have a driver there. Don't worry about the colour, just drive 👍


Also, i'm now doubting the safety car rule. It will just make things less enjoyable and more difficult. But I think a race steward calling for yellow/blue flags would be a good idea

Ah right gotcha, so I can run any colour? :)
 
Ettick
I don't think I'll make it to the race, but can I do the time trial for fun? :lol:
Click to expand...
Ok mate that's fine 👍

Of course. Anyone can give it a go of course but the Pre-Q drivers definitely need to :cheers:

If Ettick is away then that means there is another space open
 
What's a good time for the red bull ring with these fgt specs?

Managed at 1:12.792 there with pretty much a stock tune, starting to tweak it a little bit now though xD

I remember my 18 was in Pre-season though, so not sure where I can get at now. Hopefully not that far off :p
 
Thanks man, but I'll be out of town this weekend and away from the PS3.

I would love to see that replay. Are you using ABS or no?
 
Just a heads up, I won't be racing this week as I'm out of town on Saturday.
 
If this safety car rule stays I'd just like to make one request. Next time an SC is called 5 laps into a race can we go off of running order and not qualifying order?

If it was a Lap 1 Red Flag then fair enough, I'd understand that, but to pick your way through the carnage and gain a handful of positions just to be kicked back down the order was a kick in the nuts.
 
I don't know why True decided to restart in Q order but by guess is it's because of all the mess during safety car, illegal overtakes and stuff.
 
hmmm, would it be better to postpone this weekend then?

No. It was meant to be the order that we were when the safety car came out. I was saying this a few times in the lobby
but when it was ignored and people talking about Q orders I thought what the hell just let things go on.

The safety car is really halting things and unnecessary. I think it's best to drop it in total to be honest
