I only want a rule you have to start on soft... đź’ˇ

whats wrong with having the choice of starting tyre?
 
If you enter the track with soft, do one lap and go into pit to change to hard you do the qualify on hard tyres. But when you start the race the replay will show everyone that you are on hard. But you will do laptimes like you were on medium tyres.. If you do not have medium tyres you will do laptimes you do with soft tyres.

Happened to me in the pre-season twice, happened to Arkano during the pre-season, happened to Maxitsu on Monza and another race. All of us did a double hard stint just to make sure we used the hard because we got suprised by the low laptimes (no wonder)
I also saw Anastasis qualified on soft and tried to start on hard on La Sarthe, he did a better time than I could do on soft and the replay show he has hard tyres.

Just a bug we all know about. And I agree with Maxitsu, we should force soft tyres start

what if we just qualify on hards if we want to start on hards.
just make it clear that no one changes from soft to hard during qually
 
Hey, i want to join and i take this babe: Takata Dome NSX ‘06 (Psn: TEAMRAD-Sifer-GT)

Like we did up until now, but no one said anything about when Anastasis changed on La Sarthe, I guess because if we change no one will ever know??

How do you going to control that?

EDIT: Not my intention to talk down about Anastasis here, he did his hard stint later in the race and just did a mistake he fixed himself, but we have no guaranty everyone is this honest.

And if someone is really fast on the hard it will be really easy to accuse him of abusing this bug

I don't know if you already did, but you will need to add ErikAndre71 and Arkano6 to you psn friend list (I haven't been on my PS3 yet)

Welcome to the championship :)
 
I should be on for practice for the majority of tomorrow afternoon :)

as will I, not happy with my setup at all, and im way off the pace currently

cant find the ballence between tun in and the back of the car being a pig as of yet
 
Guys, i'm having a basketball match at 6:00 p.m BST... I will be home by 8:15 i think but i must do a bath(the good one, with the strawberries and the champagne lol) cause tomorrow i'm having another match at 1:00 p.m BST and i need to relax myself and my muscles ;) So i might be a little late for qually
 
Ah yes, forgot to mention that someone asked me to extend qualy by 15 minutes today (I can't remember who you were, sorry :p) so we'll be having a 45-minute qualy again.

EDIT: It was Teamrad_pitt.

Lots of new guys today people. Lets remember we don't know how people are to drive in a crowd with so many new drivers. And the track is very narrow, it's narrow for Formula1 and the cars we drive are up to 30cm wider. (the GT-R) So be careful guys

And good luck to everyone :)
 
Considering the penalties are much harsher this season, hopefully people remember to drive with their heads again!

I promise not to crash into you this time Zzxxz :p

who's new? did i miss something? :scared:
 
previous season i had a quite good setup. i was very fast at 1 lap, but it didn't work on degraded tyres. now i want to try it whit some better tunes. probably whit far less camber.


oh why is the nissan woodone and the honda epson not allowed in this season?
 
Room is open and will stay open until race start. So if you want some pre race practice or set up your car. Feel free to join in any time

Pitt, Sifer and Crazytaxi are new guys, if everyone shows up it will be a crowded race tonight. Looking forward to it :dopey:

And I like the fact that it is now more international than ever with people from around the world :sly:
 
What a load of bollocks.

I've been fine ALL week, no problems at all. I qualified third after I made a mistake on my final lap almost going 2 tenths quicker than Falcon on pole.

Then it happened. As soon as the race started, my frames per second went to the gutter, I must have been on 20-30 fps at best. As a result of that, my car wasn't handling correctly. Cue me doing laps of 1:38.xxx on the soft tyre.

I really should have been up in third or fourth. This season just keeps getting worse and worse for me, surely it can't get any worse than this. But I'm sure it will.

Maxi, I'm sorry if I caused your spin on lap 38, I didn't feel anything on my part and it didn't look like I did on my screen, but I'm not trusting anything on my screen from that race. My incident with Erik was a little different, from what I remember I did have the inside.. But we'll see on the replay.

Well done to Falcon and Persian.

I might not even bother turning up for Tokyo, I think I need a week out.
 
it was a good race overall, didnt think that falcano would of go in pit for hards then for softs.. nice pit strategy, had a nice battle with zzxxz, got a litle bump on the rear after the straight onto the chicane wich caused me to not slow down to catch the curbs, but nonetheless it was very nice.
 
I had a fun race. i got a nice qualy, i used the time to burn the fuel.

my start was ok but i could't move up on the field. i could hold arkano and erik behind at first. after that it was a race by myself. did not to much mistaken. 2 big ones it cost me maybe a 8th place. the race was only 4 laps to long.

I cutted the chicane 5 times. i admit :ouch: 1 time i got a bump from arkano i think. 1 time i didn't won time. 2 times i yielded. (all in my first stint). 1 time at the end when fighting for arkano. yet again i yielded but arkano was to far to take the place.

becaus i didn't get any advantage i don't expect a penalty.

At the end Falcon was lapping me whit Anastis on my tail together with Arkano. i touched falcon slightly, i could control the car but then i felt a bump and crashed. can Ark or Anastis explain what happent? is that why Anastis stopped befor finish?
