Makeshift Shuffle - No Tuning RacesOpen

[danbojte]

Welcome, @danbojte , always nice to see a new competitor. I see from your sig you run no ABS -- several of us do that as well.


Room should be up in a little less than an hour.

Thank you. I think I'll run with ABS because I don't have the time for brake testing. 👍

Oops running behind, room open in club lobby in a minute. Reposting event info for convenient reference on current page:

Sorry, still not feeling well enough for racing. Have fun!

 

[amarynceos]

Network issues soooo annoying. It's like Wednesdays are a bit cursed...

Sorry, still not feeling well enough for racing. Have fun!

Feel better soon!

 

[John Wells]

Sorry got cut off, went too track, don't load proprly. Had to knock off PS3, now its checking files.

Sorry about bumps at Brands Hatch was driving too hard

See you all Friday:tup:

Hope you get better for Sunday Tarn

 

[watermelon punch]

Well, life would certainly be easier if the earth would be flat -- at least there would be only one timezone.

This is what bothers me from the beginning of my GT life.

I empathize greatly.
I have spent way too many letters and frown smileys on this forum griping about this issue of time zones.
From disappointments to confusion.
It gets even worse after you think about it too much.. and then read about the physics involved with time.
Whoa! Nobody wants to think about that.

Good racing last night, guys! 👍 The things went pretty fast though - not even smoking breaks...

That's because we're all trying to quit.

Good racing last night, guys! 👍 The things went pretty fast though - not even smoking breaks...

Yeah, sorry about that, I was a bit crunched on time with having to fit in an extra race that we couldn't get to last week, and the network SNAFUs really ate into the scheduled block. Usually I like to leave time for a couple of warm-up laps before each race.

Smoking breaks... thankfully it's been long enough since I quit that I don't even recall what year it was. I've been free of cigarettes for most of a decade now, yay!

Still really busy, gotta get to that results backlog soon though. Just thought I'd drop in when I had a moment to say that yes, we are racing tomorrow, and here's the schedule... which seems to be unfinished, dang. Thought I finished that.

Race #1: laps @ Monza, no chicken //
Race #2: laps @ Rome // Retro
Race #3: laps @ Cote d’Azûr // Legends
Race #4: laps @ Red Bull Ring Short // Legends
Race #5: laps @ Red Bull Ring // Hot Hatches
Race #6: laps @ Nurburgring GP/D // Hot Hatches

I'll figure out the lap counts and the one-make car tonight.

 

[watermelon punch]

Mmmmm mmmm I love vegetarian Monza.

Uh... I mean vintage Monza.

 

[danbojte]

@ Monza, no chicken

Can we have beef then?

 

[watermelon punch]

Can we have beef then?

Next @LongbowX will be asking about week-old thanksgiving turkey leftovers.

How about cake?
Tip: use the facilities before race time.

 

[danbojte]

Do we have race?

 

[watermelon punch]

In about one hour, I expect!

[tarnheld]

amar has room problems, recreating room, hang on a second...

 

[Torzilla]

Got kicked at the start of race 4 and got kicked again, I couldn't get back in. Great racing today.

Bummer about that. It was great racing, indeed. 👍

 

[watermelon punch]

Great fun at the races!

Though I generally love the Stratos, not sure I want to drive it at Monte Carlo again! That was ARDUOUS!!!!
Someone's going to suggest it as a 1 make now probably!
Someone else already thought of that.

That rain race w/ Legends at Red Bull Ring Short Track was quite the adventure!

And this was amazing.



I'm really wishing I had a gaming capture device.
But good enough! (Even if it looks like a local news reel clip from the 1980s. haha)


PS: It was snowing here in Pennsylvania while we were racing.

 

[tarnheld]

Haha, that spin came out of nowhere, should have used the muzzling tire compound (CM front). Lost track of the track, i think i hit an invisible wall, luckily you avoided me.

Would be really cool if videos could be captured straight from the game replays, thanks for the video! Might try it too sometimes, great moments of success or despair are in most shuffle races. Of course the despair moments are funnier to watch...
