Joining. I'll definitely be racing, haven't had much practice. A Lil with Owens and force the other day
 
I'm getting alot of understeer in my Subaru 03 and it's killing my times xD only getting 57-58s with a PB of 57.5...

Edit: 56.9 Pb now set in Cicuas lobby :).

Did 55.8 in practice, but spun on last turn of first lap in Q :( ... crossed the line for second flier at low speed and had to be careful not to waste it completely. So a 56.8.

And I am not optimistic for the race, the track is tough on the tyres with all the sharp turns with outwards slope. I need to use a tune that is 0.5-1.0 slower :ouch: - unless I pit every 5 laps, but I guess the goal is rather 10-11.

I can run 12 laps on a set of tires but I'm shooting for 2 stops, 10 laps/stint.

Can someone steward me?

I'm at: 1472-6399-8537-0920-1568

I was running good times before, but not anymore, so I guess it's time to qualify and be over with this :)
 
I knew I was a fu**ing idiot, and a loser. But today was just too much. I was confident, not on having a GOOD qualifying, but rather, on having a DECENT qualifying. And what do I do? I blow it on both laps. First lap being full of mistakes and second lap spinning because I suck. 0.6 away from my PB, too.

Just to make you realise how bad it was. Last SATURDAY, in HALF AN HOUR, I got to 56.1. Now, a week later, I have 56.2. Nice job, idiot GV27, nice job.

If I was Lexus team boss, I'd fire GV27, that's for sure, because he's self-destructive.


I'm slower than I used to be; I make more mistakes than I used to be, and I'm my mental status is ****ed up.
 
GV27-
Lap 1 1:56.272 clean
Lap2 x:xx.xxx

Lap1 2:04.876 *off no time gained

The problem is not that it's fast or slow on a general level. Just as everything in life, there will always be someone ahead of you and someone behind you. It's statistics. But when you can do your 100% and you keep doing 85%, and the harder you try, the worse you do it, it feels awful.

And then there's people kind of saying I shouldn't complain (rightfully so) and it feels even worse :dopey: (lovely usage of emoticons to hide the massive frustration).

Not at all GV I understand I get peed off if I under perform to my personal limit :nervous:. Also I bolded a bit that doesn't apply to Aderrrm :lol:.
 
Glad to be understood. Thanks, Paul.

Well, you know. When you're an alien like Adam is, you're beyond statistics. But I'm the "averagest" person you'll ever meet. Everywhere. I'd say I'm unremarkable. Well, perhaps except for whining, I think I get the record for that.
