Well that'll speed things up, if anything. Or then again, maybe not, since I don't even know what goes on in that strange world otherwise known as "your mind"... :lol:

Why was Rockingham eliminated? Problems with the A.I.? And what is that Myrtle Beach thingy?
 
Also for Myrtle Beach, cautions will be off so that the video won't be 2 hours long :lol:. If cautions are on, the pace laps have to be 35 MPH or the game can't handle it, and that makes the race too damn long

Well, that means if someone spins out, they'll be boned. No pace repackiging will happen without pace laps... :lol:
 
Does anyone here actually care about the manufacturers points for this season? Next season they'll be more important, but this season they mean nothing :lol:

Well, if the number of cars per manufacturer aren't balanced, then yes, they hardly mean anything. Unless you're a sucker for brand pride this year, it's best to set things better for next season. :lol:
 
For New Hampshire this year, the starting order will be the inverted order of average finish for the year. So for example, as of all the races I've run, this is what the order would be if New Hampshire were the next race.

Jahgee has highest average finish. Staged. :sly:

It's mostly because I haven't got caught up in as many wrecks as some of you guys this year :lol:, I'd say overall that my driver is probably the 2nd or 3rd quickest

Inverted grids, eh? That should allow for some interesting races indeed, now the backmarkers can have their own shot at glory. Also, good to hear that my average is enough for third place, only beaten by Swift and Jahgee (the latter obviously rigging the deck in his favor in order to be no.1 :lol:)
 
So my average is....like every damn series I'm in. What a surprise :lol:

You are in 8th :lol:, I guess the points we decided to give you as compensation were about right :lol:

So I'm in 7th place on the standings, right?
 
To update you guys, I've finished recording Myrtle Beach & Bikernieki. I'll start the two hours of compression for each of them tonight. Now I'm testing Monza some more and editing a couple of things about how the AI race. The earliest you'll see them is Wednesday. You may get a race Sunday, not sure as Saturday I'll be at a theme park and Sunday is both Indy & the Coke 600. And the weekend after that is my senior trip, so you may get a race that Sunday as well, I don't know yet.
 
Yay, more races! Ok, so they'll take a while to be released, but it's good to know that they are primed and ready.
Also, you, in a theme park? Nightmare fuel right there. :lol:
 
For some Derpy AI example, @tbwhhs cut out the road course part and managed to do the 6 mile lap in under a minute :lol:, he has almost an entire lap lead over the field in this test race
 
I forgot this existed. Apparently my guy won a race and got a couple of podiums as well. Niiiiiicccceeee. :cool:

Your guy is the surprise for this series IMO, he's taught me the most about how this game works. He has 0 driver ratings in anything that isn't a short track, yet half the time he's contending for the win. He's also helped me the most when it came to how I wanted to set up my truck for @Gerarghini's series :lol:

So what you're saying is that because my guy isn't the racing equivalent to Superman or Mr. Bean, I've not a hope in hell. Am I seeing this right?

No, it's just I didn't expect Doodle's Modifieds champion to compete at superspeedways, but he has.
 
@Jahgee1124

Would you be willing to write up a short summary of each race to go with its video release? I don't have the time to watch the full length videos so I'm feeling a bit disconnected from this series. :guilty: I'm not looking for anything fancy - just major lead changes and any noteworthy wrecks; that sort of thing.
 
MFW compression accidentally crops out half of the standings ticker

Gonna have to redo that :lol:

Oh for the love of... More technical issues? This series needs more recalls than a GM product. :lol:

Luckily I didn't delete the AVI's of the races (They're taking up almost 600 GB of the 676 GB of free space my hard drive has :lol:)
