My plan is to gce in tomorrow night, i have not been on since last Tuesday nights races. The only issue is we are supposed to have some wicked storms tomorrow :banghead:. So if storms pass and stuff is all good I should be on đź‘Ť. Hope everyone had a good weekend :cheers:.

There's been some dirty looking clouds floating over me today, so i imagine youre getting something nice and wet, or wake up to nothing. Sunday morning i went to grab the clothes from the line, it was just spitting a bit and within 2 seconds it turned into a full on storm. Free shower tho.

Birthdays = eye contact. :D
 
Ok boys the restrictors have been updated to page one, along with reduced tire wear to 3x and shut penalties to off. This was suggested as a way to ease the pain for some guys having issues in our group. Mandatory pitting is still on, and you must still take tires!!!! Please dont try and cut corners or penalties will go right back on! If you cut corners to take a spot give it back. i hope these changes help!
 
:gtpflag:Race Day Alert :gtpflag:

Ok gang tonight we finish the Caddy series, and this was our first attempt to enforce restrictor penalties. Im wondering how you feel about it as we approach the end of the series :confused:. Do ya like it, or dislike it :confused:. Some of the same old faces up top of the leaderboard, but i do notice im racing with a different group of drivers during the races. I think it boils down to being consistent and keeping your nose clean đź‘Ť.

:gtpflag:reminder for tonight's events :gtpflag:

-Tire wear 3x
-No penalties
-Pit stops are still mandatory and you must still take tires during your pit stop. Tire options are rains for first race and softs for second race, no exceptions :D
-Do Not cut corners with penalties off, im doing this to ease the pain of pcars penalties bug, there is no reason a guy should be given a 15sec penalty for running wide in the sand :confused:.

Lets have fun see everyone tonight đź‘Ť

:gtpflag:Grim & Mphile Caddy series :gtpflag:

:gtpflag:Weapon=Cadillac Ats-vr gt3:gtpflag:

:gtpflag:Regs:gtpflag:
-Damage is visual only
-Mechanical failure is off
-Tire wear 3x
-Fuel is real
-Abs only no other driving aids
-mandatory pit on
-Tire compounds allowed are slick soft and rain for the series (gentlemans agreement)

:gtpflag:Restrictor penalties zone:gtpflag:

-bop restrictor penalties will be handed out after each race :eek:, 1st place get 6 clicks left, 2nd place gets 4 clicks left, and 3rd gets 2 clicks left on their restrictor. I will have exact numbers for the drivers before each race(a little bit of work but should payoff?) the drivers must remain at given restrictor numbers for the entire series. so basically if you finish 1st,2nd,or 3rd you will receive a restrictor penalty! The restrictor number could change for you only if you have reached the podium again, which means you have been issued a new number giving you less power.

Mexi-33.1
Mphile77-35.1
Sgeti-36.1
Ipecac-37.1
Lobban-38.1
Colts-38.1
Eh team-39.1

Remember lower numbers here mean less power, it will cause terrible starts at the beginning of the race, and your straight line speed will suffer drastically :banghead:

So after wondering why my gas pedal felt soft last night, I opened up the pedals to look and noticed the spring was bent. Took it out and it turns out the spring was cracked. Had to take a bunch of springs from an old set of pedals, but it still feels a bit too soft though. Got all worried i'd be using the controller again. đź‘Ž
 
Ha, at my age, you get used to a soft..........pedal.
I'm all for the restrictor settings penalties for the fast guys, I might steal that idea for the Lobanaro Lounge. Man, did you guys miss the best night last night, stomach is still sore from laughing .
Be on after a vortex fan break.........long day, I actually did some labour.

Series #18 completed. Good job @XxGrimxX and @mphile77 for putting together a competitive series. Your fancy restrictor settings were cool, but looking at the top 3, not much changed. ;) I can see us integrating something like this further in pCars2, which we only have 2 more series before! I just jinxed it though, so have fun waiting fellas.

Well i think for some base line tests we got some results for restrictor racing. I think if tire wear was real results would have been different , i think if guys put more time into practice results could have been better for them, i think if we gave out bigger penalties for upper tier guys results would have changed some? All these are just my opinions, aaaaaaand we know what opinions are :lol:, they are like :censored:holes, everyone got one :D.I thank everyone who gave it a shot, i hope at least someone had fun :confused:

:gtpflag:Next event :gtpflag:

Up next is the Colts endurance race :eek:, yes you read this correctly, Colts created this bad boy...

Colts :banghead: if your going to post sub par stuff on here please use the proper tools provided :mad: at least :confused:.

Here is an example- i wish i was a better 🤬 driver, or im tired of always spinning out and 🤬.

This way when you swear like a child we dont see little stars replacing the words you meant to use. The little censored emoji guy is here for that reason đź‘Ť.
Please dont double post twice within 1min of each other :confused:, go back quick and edit it. I do believe you have the time since i know your not going to work today :lol:

I was talking with a few of you last night about my buddies Cobra. Here are some pics. It's a Superformance MKIII 427. They are built in South Africa, under licence from Carroll Shelby Licencing, and are exact replicas. Bob tells me this Roush engine is 675HP. It's sick fast!!
