JGTC S3 Round 5 Race + Results

Na, Fava beans make me fart! :lol:

Yeah EV4L, sorry man but I gotta chime in here too. This is becoming a little ridiculous. I think I can speak for all of us when I say we respect the fact that you (like us) have a busy RL, but we all work very hard to submit our times by the deadline. Hell I've lugged my stupid DFP around the world at least twice just to compete here, submitted times at 7am in a McDonald's Internet cafe in Switzerland in -10 degree weather because I had no Internet access at home...and every week now the results are 2, 3 or more days late.

I could've had another 2 runs by now and improved on the crappy 12th place time I had to submit by the end of Sunday. What's going on dude? I'm starting to lose faith in the series here!

Or maybe we'll have you for dinner? Enjoy your liver with fava beans and a nice Chianti?
Ha-ha,I love that movie very-very much.
Hopkins is the GOD I think.
Stay calm,buddies.Maybe something serious happened to ev4l.It seems that sometimes we forget that there is a REAL LIFE besides this virtual world.
Give some time to ev4l.
 
Yeah, apparently scrolling through PMs. Hopefully that doesn't mean he's just NOW getting to tabulating the results...

"It posts the results of the race on time, or the series will sadly be soon off-line..."
 
Seriously it's just pissing me off, people signing full time at the start then quitting to fawk up the teams, trying to fix all this crap and when finally it's done...again more people not submitting. ARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRG :mad: :banghead:

I think I'll go take a walk outside now...
 
No, you aren't wasting your time Eats.

At least Oldphart has a decent excuse for not taking part this week, he's moving home and has no connection yet, Honda has a good excuse too.
Can't speak for the rest of the DNS's but maybe 'some' flexability would help where kicking participants off the series is concerned.

All of the drivers who have submitted this week can, I am sure, be relied upon to be in it for the long haul, myself included. And some of the MIA's this week have good reasons behind it.

This is a good series, and it will survive, even flurish.

Don't forget, the BC's on, so is the world cup, plus it's holiday season too!

It's good to see the results. Not too good is the position I ended up in. I can't win races with one try. I know better, yet I still do it.

Grats podium finishers. :cheers:

Eats has been on-line, posted that the BATracer thing is gonna be a none starter...........There goes another £10 for the kool-kits thingy!

Bought it also, really cool and useful for the other 4 series I'm in. :sly: You joined any?
 
Not yet!

But will do soonly

Neil
 
I assure you I'm in it for the long run, but eats, come on...

I love this series, the rules, formats, competitors, but you're asking US if YOU'RE wasting your time here? Throw us a bone and show a little contrition or something. If you're not feeling the least bit guilty about hanging us out to dry while you pull your shtuff together and post what positions we've earned, then you may find more people renegging on their COMMITMENTS.

Like I said earlier, if you're too damn busy to hold up your end of the bargain and administer this series in a timely fashion, ask for help. I'm sure there's plenty of us who would love to keep the series running smoothly, myself included.

<RANT OFF>

Okay... Now that I've checked out the results (figured I wouldn't let them color my last commentary...)...

YEAH!! Finally a win... Nice to get one. At +9% weight makes it that much better, and also considering I took a 10 second penalty I'm stoked.

Not looking forward to the reduced power from here on out, but oh well.

Fast lap bonus was icing on the cake. Another first for me.

Good times...

Y'all really do have a valid point. I love this series, the best here as far as I'm concerned, but the result posting is getting a bit lax. We don't need anyone else backing out, we must keep it running....nuff ranting!

Anyway, can't believe I got hotlap, I got a good draft on my last stint while running RS/RS tires. We call that the "Blind Squirrel Theory" which states "Even a blind squirrel finds an acorn now and again"
 
I'm surprised by getting not only a 4th place but also the second fastest time too!

Congrats to all who competed! Especially the podiums! 👍

On a side not, is anyone else having problems with the site? It's taking over 30 secs to load a page at the mo.

Edit: Never mind, it's sorted itself. Must have been my end, footie's just finished.
 
It was happening here to for awhile Neil, but like you said it sorted itself out.
Hey Neil we're tied in Drivers points...it's great, and the teams are all close in points..gonna be a wild ride. We're same weight this week Neil, but it's one of my best courses....should be fun...hope yer knees are OK, I could send over someone with a baseball bat...or Cricket bat...whatever.
