Had a quick 45 minutes balls out lap risking everything into the first corner:scared: and i laid down a 143.182. Honestly feels like it means nothing theres no way i'd dice with death like that in a race!!:nervous: Not a track i personally know well would like more practice in all honesty:indiff: feels highly technical with plenty of draft oppotunities anybodys race i reckon.:)
 
Managed 1:42.962 on lap 6. Reckon it will be interesting. Just a word of warning please be careful going into turn 1 and the chicanes. Its very hard going side-by-side. We've had no issues so I see no reason why we will but just be careful and use your brains. :)

After another half hour practice ive come to the conclusion i totally suck here!:yuck: Im happy to get a mid 43 let alone your 42's Andy:nervous: The time im losing in the fast chicane trying to stay legal is killing me i think:grumpy: Damage limitation tonight expect the table to close up quite a bit.:scared:

Well the chicane is pretty difficult to do legally due to high speed. Tbh if you et onto the kerb/grass it does screw you up, dirt onto the tyre. Plus its so fast and hard to get braking point so I will except if people do use kerb, otherwise we could see a lot of kerb. But don't cut and use the grass. But I doubt that will be beneficial for your tyres.

Also if we have a new host do we have to use their room or can we keep using mine?

Roll on Fuji:indiff:

I'll be shooting off fairly sharpish after race 2 for the football just so ya dont get the wrong idea.:lol:
 
Finally got my Details announced;

Car Number: 56
Colour: Patriot Blue Pearl
Team: HSR (Humberside Racing)
 
Well that was a good Debut...
Running well, then a spin and collision; and to finish off a Disconnect. AGGGHHH.
 
Sorry for leaving after race 1,

I really don't enjoy these cars plus the track list isn't one I look forward to (I really hate Laguna/Tokyo)

Although I'm free every Wednesday I think I'm just gonna sown my time practicing in other cars.

Sorry!

Sorry!

Don't worry I'm not enjoying it, and some of the drivers I've spoken to aren't either. Think I'm gonna ask a vote if people want to continue or stop.
I'm just really not enjoying GT5, only BTCC I enjoy. Just cars feel slopy online. Argh oh well.
 
Well, after yet another night of problems...
I'm really not starting to wonder if I should hang up my driving boots and move onto something else in life...

You should try rFactor, confusing to start with but you have experience in PC gaming so I'm sure you could pick it up quickly.👍
 
Sorry about tonight andy, helped a friend move some vehicles at 6 and it took longer than I thought. :ouch:

I did learn a very good lesson though, never drive a 70cc quad that needs new tyres, brakes, bushings and the steering sorted ever again! :dunce:

I'll be here next week for sure 👍

How'd the race go btw?

That quad would probably have been safer in tuther words dont ask.:lol:
 
Sorry for missing this, i've only just got back from working, it's been a long day.

Going to have to drop this for now as I'm far to busy to do anything right now. New job, house and area all happening in the next 10 days too so going to have even less time available.
 
Haha well that quad was a hairy ride so I'm guessing that the race was a shambles then? :lol:

:ouch: Dont know what it is but ive never witnessed lag like it which inevitably leads to other stuff shame really could have been good.:nervous:
