:lol: Well done, you did a cracking job. I was watching the positions swapping constantly between you, Evo and MadBean. It looked as though it was a great battle.

In all fairness
a) boost was on
b) this allowed your Volvo to just out run them out the end

the stupid boost may have made the racing super close and fun but not having fair competition ruined R1 for me and my team mate :mad:
went into the pits 1st & 2nd, came out 2nd to last and last

Just announcing a colour change for the team, @sibbystiggy and I are now driving in metallic silver integras with yellow spoilers and rims

mine is matte grey with orange instead of yellow tho lol
similar, it won't confuse us with anyone else, (its 1 of a kind ;))
speaking of colour schemes, there are some very interesting color combos in D2, a very nice looking grid, nice work guys! :gtpflag:

First corner. 👍

That and the chicane-kink thing at Rome are the hardest corners to get right on the game, in my opinion.

The chicane thing coming out the tunnel and down the hill at Monaco. Actually half the corners on the track. :lol: Ive never understood why some people think that eou rouge is a difficult corner, its flat out in most cars!

I think its flatout in cars with alot of downforce, like F1 cars, everything else struggles, its a wider and smoother version of the corkscrew but in reverse (going up)

I'd forgot about the corkscrew, that's much harder.
 
its funny because last month some cock in a polo ran on to the track during an actual race.
 
results aren't up yet but as it seems, there is a close 3/4 driver battle for first in the drivers championship (D2),

thanks to true's idea of the new format and change of tyre compounds, the season has become alot more interesting, so many factors to consider and things to plan beforehand and during the race nights

out of the 3/4 of us, after tonight its clearer that it won't be the driver with the best car who will go onto win, it'll be the 1 who uses the best strategies and takes most advantage of the tracks they are likely to do well at who do

a battle to the end, see you there guys :cheers:

If you're talking about the incident at Brands, that actually happened a looooong time ago. ;) It wasn't his car either and he deserved a good slap.

I knew about it last year sometime.
 
Ok guys, i'm torn.

After a great season I thought this would be amazing. However the standards have been poor, and despite being tough on them, it has still continued.
I handed the keys of the series over and the opinion is torn. I tried to make things as simple as possible, and now trying to have some fun, I cant, and it's just been over complicated. So now the question is what to do.

I'll just withdraw completely. That's pretty much what has happened now and it's just no fun.
I just shut GTTCC down. It's looking bad when I put all this work in and then take a step back its crumbling, and then with some of the standards and rule breakers.
Scrap this season and bring in what was planned for GTTCC-4. A one make and make things simple.

It's ruined off track by servers, and losing my grasp on the series, then when I get on track it's ruined by poor driving. For those of you who are aware of some of the things I'm dealing with in real life, the game is meant to be an escape. Not cause additional problems. I want some fun, that's all. I released hosting duties and tried to step back.

I'm not sure what to do. Just sharing my first thoughts.
 
You shouldn't give up, seriously. Look how many people are interested in this series. I mean, TWO lobbies have to be run just to support everything. In my opinion, that's pretty impressive! The only other series I've seen doing this is the FIA GT World Championship.

Hmmm... It's a tough one.

On one side you've put a lot of work into developing this season's specifications, the BoP and the formats. It's the largest field ever recorded in GTTCC history with so much interest it's had to be split into 2 divisions. There's a lot of scope for an interesting season.

HOWEVER, I for one believe a back-to-basics approach for the series may not necessarily be a negative. If anything, I believe it will rejuvenate the series by taking it by the horns and changing it. Return to the old style of format, return to the old style of pens. That is what made this series what it is (or was).

The calendar is weak IMO, and that's me being polite about it. Seasons 1 and 2 were stacked compared with this. Sure, if I was in charge half the season would be street circuits (Rome, Tokyo, SSR5) and then the return of the tracks which produced awesome racing (Apricot Hill, Big Willow, Cape Ring South, Grand Valley East, Fuji GT). That would be my 8. Maybe with Midfield or the ill-fated Dristelen (if the pit lane works this time :cheers:).

Part of me is even tempted to call for a return to Season One specs, even if me and the Golf don't get on anymore... :lol:

Might just be me, and I'd like the opinions of the drivers who were here for Season 1 on this, but something just feels... I don't know... Missing...

Not a knock on you, but I'm sensing that you feel the same way.

@True-blue-8 its totally up to you, do whatever makes YOU happy. Dont make rash decisions though, have a think for a few days

Been mulling it over for awhile and will continue do.
There are so many people I don't want to let down, long runners here. However even they are feeling that we're falling.

I think i'll need to step in again. This is the second time I've let the majority run it and it just doesn't work. Things are going a bit complicated. I'll sit down, see what can be done and as ninja said, grab the bull by the horns.
