I think of it as a brand new fresh start in the season so all I gotta do it finish ahead of the rest of u. The last lap should be an intense one considering the draft capabilities.

Don't make it sound too easy, now. There's going to be about 15 other drivers that aren't going down without a fight.

As for drafting, it seems to be many peoples worst enemy. Given the number very sharp corners at the end many massive straights, I anticipating at least a few cars overshooting their break points and going off track. Hope I'm not one of them!

Not saying I gotta beat all 15 other drivers, just you, Wiifreak, and Reevos. If anyone else wins first place or podium, they probably wont have enough points to pass me on the leader boards.
 
There's still three races left. You'd be surprised how fast everything can change.

Don't count your chickens before they hatch.

and walk silently but carry a huge ass stick

Ya i know, Im mostly worried about this race because the draft can change everything on this track, no draft, no chance!

That is why it will be ever more important to find a partner with which you can bumpdraft and/or leapfrog on both the Mulsanne and the run down to Indianapolis. But all it takes is one person to decide to turn an endurance race into a sprint and, viola, you end up with a bunch of premature ejaculators trying to swap positions for the first three laps of the race, letting the leaders pull away.

On that note, I am going to try to make this race because it will be a fun game of strategy. Hopefully Wardez, Turbo, Red and I can work together to conquer La Sarthe! :dopey:
 
BrosifDuder
Ditto to that.

It is such a long race that I would probably drop back to find you anyways.

Yeah at this point I don't even mind starting in back. Would almost rather start there anyway to avoid the first lap incidents.
 
Theyre still 'apologising for the inconvenience' on PSN. It even made the news yesterday. And that's the news you get violence and murders on!

You shouldn't be mad at anybody. $hit happens! Why create negative energy if there is nothing that you can personally do about the situation? 👍

Sony is currently re-building the system to make it safer for your personal information, why would you be mad at them?

I dont know, just they could have made the system without taking PSN down for a week. Once the new system is ready, they can take PSN down for a day to install it and test it out and such and then put PSN back online. I'm just bored as hell! I would be outside cleaning my car and detailing it but its been raining none stop here last few days.

But ya, I mostly blame the hackers for being immature low-lifes.
 
My plan is to try to get a few positions up to Tetra Rouge then take whoever's in front of me and just push them for the first few laps.
 
For those of you who don't know, there's another update from Sony on the Official Playstation blog, which can be found here. According to Sony personal info has been compromised. Also, "While there is no evidence at this time that credit card data was taken, we cannot rule out the possibility".

Another part I'd like to draw attention to is this, "We have a clear path to have PlayStation Network and Qriocity systems back online, and expect to restore some services within a week."

I'd recommend you guys read through the post yourself though, rather than just the parts I highlighted.
 
lol @ people getting mad enough and swearing to go buy an xbox.

Thank you for the post Wii. I haven't read the whole article, but I decided it was time to take action. I don't feel comfortable waiting to find out if credit card info was released.

I just called my bank and cancelled the debit card I have on file with PSN. According to the bank, I have to now wait 10 days for my replacement card to arrive. It is a bit scary that a company like Sony, with so many people's account information, could have such poor security.

Hopefully I am wrong, and no account info was ever released. I just feel better knowing that my debit card on file with PSN has been cancelled.

I wouldn't exactly call it poor. I mean, PSN has been online for how long now and someone finally managed to get that far in to the system?

My bank will cover any fraudulent charges, so I'm going to wait on replacing my card. Even if they did get a hold of credit card info for everyone that had a card on file with PSN, that's a lot of cards and the chances of mine being used are probably pretty slim.

Edit: Not to mention they won't get much out of it. :lol:

Well, they could have gotten a bit out of mine.. (money in and out of that account for my business).. add to the fact that mine was a debit card, left me a bit worried.

I do understand that psn has been around a while, but if they are keeping our credit card info in a place that can be reached from an outside entity, I wouldn't call that very good security.

Hopefully the credit/debit card issue won't come to fruition.
 
Within a week? Looks like I might have a lot more practice time for la sarthe coming up before we actually get to run this race.
 
I really highly doubt that anyones credit cards are being used.

I agree that Sony waited too long to tell us about it, but you can't really blame them for this. Like RT said, it's taken this long for people to get in.

As far as being around for a while... Should we talk about our government, social security, etc...

What if someone obtained all of our information (address, name, social security number, etc.. ) Would you just say, well our gov't has been around a long time. So, it was just to be expected.

I am taking this more seriously than most.. I use that card with my business account. As a background, I am a professional securities dealer with multiple required licenses. If someone were to take funds from that account, and I make a securities transaction based on those funds.. and then I cannot come up with the funds to pay for my trade, I would very likely lose my licenses. Whoop to do, that the bank would eventually get me my money back.

After typing this, I am realizing I need to change my methods. Even huge companies like Sony, a technology company, can't seem to provide adequate security of my information. Looks like I will be buying myself some pre-paid cards in the future.

Not to mention this is postponing our series. Bastards:yuck:

Yeah, I understand where you're coming from. I guess I just have no personal reason to be worried, as the only personal info I have is my first name and address.

Like you I've never given over any card details, all they have is my email n password which is exclusive to PSN so anonymous can put that in their anonymous pipe and smoke it, anonymously.
 
Hey mule. I know some other series have a no bump drafting rule. Correct.

Have you ever considered that for your series.

Were drivers who want to simulate racing right. whens the last time you sw anything besides a nascar bumpdrafting. therefore we shouldnt do it.
 
LOL. Someone posted this in another forum. I think it kind of sums up my reaction.

I am sure most of you have seen this.. it is from the movie Airplane. In the movie she basically says everything is fine.. but by the way, does any one know how to fly a plane?
