I'll definitely give it a try 👍 Thanks.
I use the pen tool as well, and everything looks great in Photoshop, but I'll have to check the rest. Apparently I should be looking at a test session replay for the best results as well, not a 30 car race replay. Were your shots from a test session?

They were from a test session yes. :)

Can non team members comment ? Looks good but I'd remove the white stripe down the front, it kind of blocks your logo and team name.
 
I guess I need to get a team scheme made for my rigs, pretty sure I'm either going with Ken Block's New livery or one from V8 supercars.

His new livery is beautiful, it would be a challenge to try and match it.

There is a new build in iRacing, new tire model, new drivetrain and sounds etc. Had a lot of maintenance as well, the Saturday 2.4h was delayed by 1 hour due to maintenance. I got 3rd when it did eventually get going in Split 7.

But other than the 2.4h and the new build, nothing much has really happened.

I would also like to take this opportunity to welcome Hunter Manley to the team. It seems our line up for the Grand Prix season and season 1 as a whole is getting stronger and stronger.
 
I wish to call for a meeting on Saturday at 20:00 GMT, will happen on our TeamSpeak server.

Agenda is not decided yet, but as we have gotten members from very different parts of the world, I have a suggestion to create your own schedule on when you're most likely to be online, and share it. Not ment as a you "have" to be online, but today some of us don't see each other on teamspeak due to the different timezones.

Also we will have a contest with our finest Photoshop skilled people to create a new logo, the logo today was something I made in about 5minutes because we needed one. So if we can make something more elite to decorate our web page and our cars.. I would be glad ;)

Also we will set a few rules, so we have a few guidelines to follow. We aren't going into strict mode and it's nothing that has come up, but we have grown faster than I could imagine and it could be nice to have something to follow 💡

If you can't make it, send me a notice on it rather than just not show up. So we don't sit around wasting our time waiting for you :scared:

Sounds good Erik.👍

LJ, Hunter isn't on the drivers list on our website yet, just a heads up incase you forgot. ;) I've also made him the fw31 paint with his name and flag on in the grey colour he has on the team McLaren car. :)
 
I'll be working Erik. So go ahead without me. Just let me know what items or changes come up.

I had to read this twice to actually notice the difference, is that bad?

But that is just hilarious... :lol:
 
Hey guys,

How did everyone do in your races this first week? I did pretty good in mine. GT Challenge, in the C6r i had 2 starts 1st race pole and finished 2and, & 2and race i poled and held it to victory! My first time racing at spa in iracing:)

Get r Done!:)
 
I only raced once during this week, I wasn't sure if I wanted to race the 2.4h race or not, but I made sure the car was setup ok before. Then iRacing released their fine new build the same day as the 2.4h and the setup wasn't very good anymore. So I skipped the 2.4h, but the first race of the Grand Am was 80 minutes of Daytona. So I needed to re do my Daytona setup and I did one race.

Half way through that race I was so fed up with Daytona I could puke all over it, so I started work on my Road America setup witch is this week. I got a pretty decent setup for it, both qualify setup and race setup.

And when I signed up for the qualify my internet died (some of you might have seen the teamspeak server timed out) They said a node died on them and they worked on it. Lucky me, it happened when signed up for qualify and not race. So it didn't effect my IR ;)

Hopefully I will race more this week, but if I get a decent result in I might start working on my Silverstone setup. But I also want to race so I might delay that until next week and hope I can do a quick setup that work.

But for now I do qualify runs, to try improve my 1:57.634
 
Well I ran 4 races in total this week.

I ran a Grand Am Race at Daytona and got taken out while in in 4th position by some 🤬 into the bus stop. I hit the wall but somehow got away without damage. I fell down to 6th position, but managed to regain 5th after the pit stop stage. I finished 5th.

My Grand Prix Races didn't start well. I started my first race in the top split and started from pit lane. I managed to go from about 18th to 9th in 12 laps or so before getting making my one and only mistake by scraping the wall, thus ending my race.

My second race I was in 2nd position, until my screen froze up due to a Java Update, thus ending my race.

My hopes for getting anywhere near the Pro License in my first year were fading, until I ran my 3rd Grand Prix race.

I started 7th, and somehow avoided a Turn 1 incident on the outside. I came out of that in 4th before one of the favourite Pro License contenders slipped on the track, ultimately ending his race. So now I was in 3rd, less than 2 seconds form 1st, and barely a second away from 2nd, both are Pro License contenders. We ran clean racing for half of the race before I dived into the pits to make my stop, unaware that they weren't doing any stops.

Anyway I held 3rd and got thrown back into the possibility of getting a Pro License. I am 1st Position in Division 3, 19th position overall and the 13th driver in line for a Pro License. (Only 10 are handed out.)

A little video of my race, shot by the overall winner of the race, James Wyckoff: (I'm the car behind him after the Turn 1 collision ((Blue, White and Black))

Nice racing there mate, well done on the first week of Formula Toyota!! ;)

And your Java. Change the schedule to a time you have your computer online, but know you do not race. My computer is on 24/7 so I have mine set to Sunday at 07:00. It's a bit tricky to actually set the schedule and make it stick.

But there is a solution to every little problem ;)

And when you get to point 4.. change jre6 with jre7.

And if you need any assistance, you know where to find me 👍
