I want to go in LMP1 for next season too, preferably with the same toyota now, if that is possible ofcourse and if you will allow to have like toyota #7 A and B, if not, I might go to GT3 then
 
@fred: As fast as you are, you're going to have to drive the 1974 BMW 2002!

Seriously though, you are good to go with the Toyota LMP1 next series. Remember to keep your settings from this series, because we'll be using a lot of the same tracks for the mixed class LMP1/GT3 series. And great win Sunday: you were flying!

Thanks man! Really enjoyed yesterdays race, though i was struggling a bit when were practicing, because i didn't got to put the time I used to do until I've found the change I needed on my car but was a really great race nonetheless, so good and awesome race to everyone else! :)
Zhuhai should be interesting aswell.

Sorry for losing my cool on Sunday - but with life things to take care of, and already being over a 1/2 hour behind schedule, I didn't have the patients to trundle around Zhuhai for 50 laps in the dark in last place, 45 seconds behind the next guy because I had to pit on lap 1 to repair extensive damage.

I'll be back next week, but yesterday I was seriously considering backing out of the Sunday series, as I just can't justify spending time tuning and qualifying a car, only to spend 40-50 laps running by myself because people can't seem to show a little respect and car control on the opening lap.

Crashed out on stage 7. I now know that the wood railings will not stop a moving vehicle!
 
I was running pretty well in DiRT, until Monaco (my nemesis) saw me thinking I could push it just a little to make up some time... I totaled it transitioning from a 5 right hand turn into a 1 left-handler. I HATE MONACO!!!


@Alex: it was on stage 7 that I crashed out too. I wonder if that's where knukken bought it.

I like Monaco as long as it's dry, once you hit the snow and ice it's impossible.

I started this round earlier today and were fastest on every stage until Monaco :( I did the exact same thing as you. Probably in the same turn too...
 
Trans: your button box looks pro, great job. Would this starter button work? http://www.dx.com/p/ignition-engine-push-button-starter-kit-for-car-black-12v-117429#.WIv8uctHaf0.

Or any of these? Ali is a pretty good source for toggle switches and buttons (caveat emptor- with Aliexpress since it's owned by Alibaba you get what you pay for and cheaper isn't always better, especially when dealing directly with Chinese manufacturing companies):

I picked up Arduino for Dummies so I can start creating and programming some of my projects. It seems like a relatively easy medium to work with. Any issues with assigning USB port functionality? I've been creating/using Raspberry Pi (zero up to 3) so my kids could hack and mod minecraft and so they can learn programming. Do you know if Arduino as user friendly as R-Pi (assuming you've used it)?

@GUTTERBOY3007 - How many drivers are allowed to sign up for the Toyota next season? Based on this current season's rules it was only 4 drivers due to limited liveries.

Current list by my count:
HazardLvL4
Freddude
Alex ONeill
Speed_Demon777
Phillips
Captainslow
 
First off: i'd like to say, good win for speed_demon, you really deserved it today

Second: i'd like to deeply apologize for my shouting and overreacting during the last 2 laps of the race... It was unneeded and unnecessary, therefore i'm very, very sorry for this.. reason for this is that i was almost close in getting 3rd while i was behind philips but was unable to overtake him (props given that he's really good) but when i got my penalty...all hell broke loose with me.. because it was getting so intense for fighting for 2nd and 3rd that i was super focused and concentrated that I just lost my grip when i had a penalty..

So again: sorry if i bothered anyone with it.. i'll promise it'll never happen again...
