what is the final result now??

The final result stays as it is, you came second. You still have that position.

Since Ive done most of the checking of replay since Arkano is very occupied with his collage, I found it unfair to give a penalty to the guys in front of me so I gained positions in this race so the penalty will be added to your total time in your next race.

Also since the penalty doesn't really reflect the rule breaking, we found this as the more suitable penalty.

So if you finish with a total time on Laguna Seca at 1h:00m.00s we add your penalty time to that witch is 45seconds in total.

In reality that means.. to win Laguna Seca, You have to win with 45 seconds.

Hard penalty, but look at the bright side, you keep your second place from La Sarthe :)
 
I'd like to suggest that if you receive 30kg of ballast and you finish off the podium at your next race, you remove all 30kg of ballast for the next race. What I mean, is that 30kg should be the absolute minimum. Obviously that sounds slightly biased considering I finished third in Suzuka, but I'm just thinking that anything less than 30kg doesn't make much difference/is worth it. But I'm just throwing my opinion out there.

Well I think something different. Instead of the 5kg we go down to 10,20,30 etc

So if you place first and get 70kg and then place outside the podium you get 30 on your next race. (not 35)
You can't set the weight limit to 35 and most likely the guy racing with 35kg have 30 instead.. because the room limit when he should go to track say so.
 
understand that you have to find penalties when somebody makes something against the rules. Accept that you put 30 seconds on me. BUT, everything must be done properly. Didn t you see lap 6 when I had my first pit stop?. Please have a look at this! I entered first in the box and suddenly our greek friend overtook me in the box coming from wherever I know...I do not know how he did it as before he was quiete behind me.

Please have a look at this scene and explain me - you as a steward - if this is according to your rules. If so, I have learned more, if not, I would kindly ask you to cancel these 15 seconds you gave me for the last corner. What Anastasis did with me in the box is worth a red flag and not to be compared to what happened in the last corner between us.....obviously nobody saw what he did....and I really do not like to talk like this about him, BUT this is NOT the way I want to have racing in our league.

Before judging please have a look at the end of the 6th round and what happened when I entered the box

Appreciate highly you understanding
 
First of all, no I didn't catch that. If you have something you want us to watch, I would like for you to contact me after the race. Not after the penalties is given. I spent 8 hours of replay watching now and to be honest, I don't feel like watch anymore of that replay. Not even 6 laps.
You passed him and did a pass that was not ok, but still you kept your second place, so I still think the penalty is fair. We could add more penalties to Anastasis for this, but we do not do payback racing so if someone do one mistake to you, it does NOT make it okay to revenge that.

He probably entered the pit way to fast and he was not alone about that, so we decided to leave it even though we do not think its ok. The result stays and to be fair in your favor and the penalties stays.

I did plan to do a notice about entering pit stop because of this, since Laguna Seca have a 90 degree turn. Entering this to fast you will block the pit entrance and it can take a loooong time before AI understand how to solve the crash and you can go on. This could block someone else from pitting and will be given a penalty if done.
 
No fastest lap/pole for Le Sarthe?

Sorry for the lateness of the leaderboards. I only have mobile internet and been having lots of college work.

My internet should be back tomorrow though.
I'm not hoping too much for Laguna Seca either because the NSX is really at a disadvantage around that track. But then lots of people have success ballasts. :D
 
when is the next race.. saturday righht??

he is true, i was always entering the pits full speed, didn't know there is a turn just after entering.
I think 5 secs is the best time for removal.
 
Just to clarify, I didn't receive a penalty for hitting ProPersian because I came out worse off and therefore didn't gain any advantage??
 
So Falcon & me are not counted?:indiff:
 
You should be, but we failed to deliver who was to be 8th and 9th to Kyaw

Checked the replay and heard what you guys had to say.

You disconnected at the same time or within a second, and I decide Falcon get 8th and Maxitsu get 9th mostly because you said so yourself :)
 
Laguna Seca

Just a few things that are expected on Laguna Seca.

Pit entry
Be careful here, as I said in a post earlier crashing into the pit wall here can cause stupid happenings we don't need
Pit exit
We do have rule not to cross the white pit line, but on this track you actually being thrown out in the middle of the road by AI. But it is possible to hold it to the left. If the track is free we don't mind if you don't stay on the left side, but if you do see a car on the track, this car have the right over you so try you best to avoid accident.
Also if you are on the track and you see a car coming out of the pit, know this and take care, you do have the right over the car coming from pit, but you never have the right to crash into someone.

Cutting corners
I never shorten my laptime on Laguna by trying to cut corners, it's for me impossible, but if I choose a defensive line down to turn one I will be really mad if someone makes my defensive line useless, by using the blue striped asphalt. This is not a curb so it work as a race track line. 2 wheels on or outside of the line closest to the track.
Going wide here (outside the white line) to make a defensive line useless is also not cool

And I just want to repeat myself, you don't win the race at the first corner, so take care and stay on the track :)

Other than that, have great fun. I think it will be, great fun that is 👍

I'll be practicing tomorrow evening so feel free to join my lobby

My best is 1:19.3 with my 25kg of ballast, but not on a full tank. I'm on the 1:20's

Your ballast:
You won Monza = 70Kg
You placed outside the podium on Suzuka = 35kg
You placed 2nd on La Sarthe = 50kg

Since you have weight already 35kg you get half of the 50kg for second place. That's 25kg

35+25=60kg
 
After further post-race discussion, we have decided to remove the 10-second penalty ImmportalPilot received for passing Anatasis illegally on the last lap, due to Anatasis cutting the pit entrance early on in the race to overtake ImmortalPilot.
 
arrggghhh, so confusing. So who is 8th and 9th?

Also, i've got my internet back.
 
Welcome back Kyaw :)

8th C-Falcon
9th Maxitsu

And my lobby is open guys
 
I don't know if i am gonna practise alot for laguna seca. Whit the relaese of F1 2011 it will be hard to put GT5 in the big black box. 💡
