I want another go!!! ;) JUST KIDDING.

I proudly take the label - Turn 1 Victim 1 :lol:
 
I can run a qualy lap now, if you don't mind Mule 👍

I suck :D

EDIT: Scratch that, I'll drop by after LMP tomorrow afternoon.

Yeah, you still can
 
i'll see you at qualifying at 3:00 eastern today
 
Ran a couple of laps. No idea where people are getting <1:56, but that's ok.

Two things:
1) It seems if you lengthen the first gear (I did all the way), pit glitch does not happen. At least I had zero occurrence that way. So I'd say it's a non-issue.
2) Do we need to have penalty on at least for qualifying to make sure flying laps do not involve corner-cutting at the offset?

Edit: lengthen/shorted depends on what you start from though, so just experiment.

If you want to get less then 1:56 develop a better racing line, the game generated racing line isn't always the best line to take.

For qualifying, we have like 5+ people watching the qualifying rounds, if anyone were to cut the track everyone would find out so that's why no one dares cut the track while qualifying.
 
Need to have a quick shower, then I'll get a room open.

As for the pit glitch, I can test out lengthening 1st gear (I don't use it, anyway), but if it's still affecting people, then here is what I propose:

Instead of 1 30 lap race, we have 2 12 or 15 lap races, each giving out half-points. The grid order for race #2 will be set by the results of race #1, but with a random inversion.

Its easy to get a sub 1:56. Just add a turbo or add some engine stages. :boggled: Or who knows, maybe some other mods I don't know about.

Seriously this is a gentleman's racing league. Just add what's on the first page people. I am stunned that people have used other parts. Its obvious, if you have to dumb down your power to meet requirements, that you have cheated with your parts. Clearly Mule wouldn't make a series where you would install the parts he says, and then need to use the power limiter.

So, Dmanaenk, I can understand how you could be weary and untrusting of some of the participants here. I think though, that 99% of the people are racing legit. I have faith that Mule will do proper checks of people's vehicles and remove them from the series if anything is suspect.

I think all cars should only have the specified parts purchased. If there are extras, whether used or not.. If asked for the car for inspection, that person should be banned.

About the sub 1:56.. It is clearly possibly. I am not the fastest here, and I have run 1.56.1xx and I don't think I have the gearing right at all. This is in the qualifying format. I have run 1:55s in practice... I think maybe even a 1:54 with tire wear off.

EDIT - So as not to double post.. I will be at the qually in 20 min. Thanks Mule!

Edit2: Just read above.. 2 shorter races might be the ticket for this one. It is fairly likely that someone will get screwed with the pit glitch. The only question for second race would be.. reverse of finish for start? Qualifying time sets grid for both? Grid order exactly as first race finish.

Personally, I like the last the best.. But all would be fair if stated pre-race.

Does qualifying start in one hour from now? I don't want to miss the race because of mixing up time zones.

15 min from now. That's my understanding. But you don't have to get in the room right when it opens. I think qually lasts for an hour.
 
I dont think 2 races is fair to the people in front because they worked to get way ahead then they have to do it all over again? I think that people should just remember to pause it before they leave the pit.
 
I tried the pause thing, and it worked 5 out of 6 times for me. On the 6th time, it put me right back into the pits. So, I think the 2 short races for this track would be the wisest. I think it is just inevitable that at least one person will be screwed in the pits.

As far as the people in front. If they are truly the fastest, they will get there again. They won't if they get stuck in the pit cycle lottery, though.
 
Is the room open?

I'm not accusing anyone of doing anything intentionally. It's just damn easy (at least for me, since I can't seem find any kind of braking marker for that offset) to cut those corners, and end-up a hair faster.

Tried messing with my gears some more. My 1st is at 2.95 and final is at 3.8. If I got there from default setting on the initial pull off the pits I endup a lot closer to the grass than with my final settings, which are completely weird, but the same 1st and final gear.

So not sure what's at work here.
 
Is the room open?
Not that I have seen. I don't see Mule online as of right now. I am sure he will post here when it is up
 
Is the room open?

Wondering the same thing. Is it a private lounge or an open lobby? Since I have seen friend invites flying around I'm assuming it's an open lobby, so we are just waiting for the room number then?
 
Man I don't know, but I was getting consistent 1:57s the other day, and all of a sudden I'm struggling to keep 2:00, not sure what's up with that, oil change ok, everything looks good, but anyways:

NOOB ready to bring up the rear... Where's the room?

Yep.. Just waiting for room number. Mule is on my friends list, and as of 2 min ago, I do not show him as being online.

Make sure you have racing hard tires on. Mine kept defaulting to the sports tires.



EDIT: He just logged in to psn.. Should be up shortly

Many people are getting disconnected (including me). Maybe one of the other organizers could try hosting a room?
 
I can't connect at all. Network incompatibility. Checked my NAT, it's at 2, as always.
 
I have a strong internet, I can host.
 
Okay, it looks like everyone but reevos and wiifreak dropped.

making new room.
 
I keep getting disconnected. And I'm wired in and all... My Internet looks good, no problems... Is it PSN? Anyone else getting booted...?
EDIT: oic it's a mass issue...
 
Yeah, won't let me connect to the room.
