Been a good opening season mate. Plenty for you to write about in the end of season review Looking at the poll, looks like its Nissans for the next series.

Must agree with you mate, I have loved the Lexus so far! A little gutted on numbers participating and if we hadnt had so many drop outs it could have been really interesting.

We now have a good base of regular reliable drivers, so thank you to those who are turning up.

The Nissan championship will run standard cars and also has a mandatory pit stop so it will be interesting to see what happens, looking forward to it. It is also a Super Cup so no individual points, should put the pressure on for people to turn up for their team!

We still have 4 rounds of this Championship to look forward to and Im sure we will pick up some more drivers before it finishes.

I need to update Touring Gt Series OP to include our new members, however it would be nice to actually hear from some of them before hand. Hopeully we will see them soon.

My lounge open tonight at 9 for free practice session at laguna. Please try to attend and we can have a photo with new members

OP has been updated, if you have registered for this series but are not on the entry list then please PM me. I still need full paint chip names from those marked with a ?. The 4 new members need to decide between themselves about team pairings. If it is not decided by the Laguna race then we will pair you up and will require you to run the same colour car. Im going away, I will be back Sunday morning so any adjustments will take place then.

I also require a new team mate as sadly Rich has PMed me to say he will not be able to play any further part in this event.

Hope to see a really fully grid for round 7. Looking forward to a great race!

The admin team have decided to add a new feature to the ORDL, a bonus point will be given to the driver who secures pole position for a race.

This feature has now been backdated for the GamePOD Road Series and the OP reflects the changes made. Pole positions are highlighted in yellow.

Great race last night and it was nice to see some new faces. The new members need to arrange teams and PM me with the correct paint chip name for their cars. We have 4 members that could merge into 2 complete teams ready for the next round. If you can please let me know who will partner who and decide on a paint for the team that would be appreciated.

Sorry Neal. it wasn't meant to be a dig. please don't take offence. It was mean in such a friendly way. a lot is lost in translation when typing.

Also i haven't exactly been attending every race recently.

I hope you can join some of the other series with us soon. after all we haven't raced together yet

 

[kris8583]

That strange bloke is hanging around again.......

 

[Spatt]

Like a bad smell better believe it

 

[Spatt]

@Teckle - Are you going to be able to join us for the German touring series?

 

[totallyteckle]

@Teckle - Are you going to be able to join us for the German touring series?

Yeah i'll be joining. I can't decide between an Audi TT or BMW GTR (i'm leaning towards the TT as it actually appeared in the German Touring Car Championship).

 

[kris8583]

Tsukuba on friday;

bodykit - is dyingtrying going to be running with you for the rest of this event?

Unless any more members join i will team vag and cranko up for the remaining rounds so please decide on car colour.

Been a great opening event, there will be slight changes to the ORDL before the next event. The admin team have been struggling to keep up with new members and other members leaving.

Again we would just like to remind everyone that the ORDL need reliable members. We have had some people sign up and never show their faces. Future new members will only be added to members list and OP after proving to be reliable.

We have a great core of racers who are turning up every week so thank you, you know who you are. We hope to build on this core and expand to 10-12 racers who turn up to pretty much every race. Some great racing has been had so far and we hope for this to continue.

Sry guys, I have missed a few races. My wheel broke, was waiting for a new one. And building a custom rig too. Just got my fanatec formula wheel. Wowzerz. I may be on tonight if all works well.

 

[kris8583]

Nice to see you king, you have been missed mate

 

[Spatt]

How are the fanatec wheels King... are they 'much' better than the G27? i have been thinking of upgrading at some point in the future and wanted to know which wheels work better than the g27? i believe the thrustmaster isn't worth upgrading to but i spend a little time on 'inside sim racing' the other day and some of the rigs people are putting together with bespoke pedels and wheels are amazing.

 

[Spatt]

looking forward to Tsukuba... i think it will be a hard track for overtaking and hope for some real wheel to wheel racing. if i can keep up
I dont think ill be able to catch anyone now on the standings but i'll still be racing ever event i can. i'll make more effort to attend all the races for the next road series.

Dont worry about the standings, there is always the next event matey. Tsukuba is a great track, i think the overtaking will be on the back straight mainly car setup gonna be important yet again.

Members list and some of the website has been updated tonight. Done as much as I can since being home from work, more to do over the next week or so.

After the Lexus Championship there may be a brief pause before the next event unless we can get the changes implemented quickly. As previously mentioned the admin team have been quite busy and we will be trying to condense some of the work. Our threads here shall be merged into 1 to make it alot easier for people to see what is going on in each series.

Road, stock and touring gt will also be merging into a single series with kart and enduro still seperate.

Dont worry, racing will still be our priority and will be polling for future events of each type soon.

Remember, check the website for our race calendar, Enduro starts very soon;

Race Calendar: http://ordl.weebly.com/calendar.html

As this is google based, dont forget that it can be added to your personal calendars on phones/ipads etc so everyone can see races coming up!
