I'm from the late Jurassic era... that's why I'm always car #77
And what about Monica in all these revelations ? Or do you prefer the Queen Mother in yellow like @ElectricNaz with this yellow car (I wonder if this isn't a tribute with its yellow cars !!??🤣🤣) ?🤣🤣

Clash Announcement

May 24th 2026​

Some of us have been at FIA WEC - TotalEnergies 6 Hours of Spa. To summarize. Perfect weekend.
If you ever have the chance to meet your sim-racing-colleagues IRL ... DO IT!

Irrelevant - One thing which impressed us really much was the speed of the safetycar. These guys did a fantastic job and must have had a ton of fun. To honor them and all the guys being around the track to make these events work, Titans go ...
Back to Spa ... in Safety Car!

Further Requirements:
  • One car is sufficient, but as we'll have 4 races ... you can come up with all of them if you like.
  • Defined Setups Mandatory
  • Titans livery required (of course not for guests)
  • Don't complain about weather and darkness :odd:
In case of questions about the setups ask @Eliminatorek or @Gorefast

I am rather surprised how well the SM tyres get along with the power. Of course my lap times aren't quick but at least I survived Most of them... See you on sunday!
 
Yes, maybe. Check the archieve... 😅
I don't know if you saw it, but I posted this right after the race... my apologies again, Paul

"My dear Paul , I wanted to apologize for the last race. If you crashed and ended up in last place, it's entirely my fault. I ruined your race. I'm really sorry.🙏🙏"

Dear Jerome, I cannot remember what happened at fourth race but it was the one I liked the most. The merc is a great car and the drying track was perfect scenario! (Thank you, @MUC76 !) Everything is fine and I did admire your handling with the merc in the stormy weather! 💪 Have a nice week, mon ami!
 
Thanks for the race Titans... fun stuff.

Guess I need to come back and try to drive a little better... I'm blaming the heat, the car setups, my earpod that kept dropping connection... and er, will think about some more excuses for next time...

Great that you joined us. And even better that you want to come back. 🤗

Don't think too much about whom to blame! As Grandpa-Titan already pointed out. We are simple guys.
  • We fear only one thing, the fall of an asteroid.
  • We don't blame the heat, we blame the Greek.

I am glad that you liked it! 👍 So if you had fun and everyone else had fun it was perfect. I know you from the ATAQ days as a polite mate with a nice sense of humour and we all know that you are a fast driver. Nothing to prove...

It was a pleasure driving with you and having you with us. The main thing is that you have fun. I speak very poor English (that's why you'll never hear me speak), I understand a little, especially Babis's jokes 🤣🤣, but it was a pleasure to hear you.:cheers:

Really nice time going wheel to wheel with you. We shared a few really great moments on track.

Cheers for next time, sir!

This was a really great clash. The cars were a great pick. Even for the fact that I HATE Spa. But that's a me problem. There are a couple corners that are really important that I just will never understand. 😂

Babino was in his element in this one.

Hello Mr. @bliprunner,
We’d love if you would join us. We’ve reserved a Nissan R92CP for you.

This car can do a lot if the driver has got your skills. Proof of that is that @330_D signed up for this car. As a rally fan, he knows the famous quote of the Rally-Legend: “I’m not interested in winning by a single second. (...) I want to win by 10 minutes. That makes me much happier!:scared:

To make it easier for you. The official "TRC-Car-Whisperer"* said this about the car:
“This car sounds evil because it is evil. And weird. Fourth gear is hilariously tall, but the Nissan pulls away from everyone in that gear anyway.
Easily the fastest car by the end of the straightaway, but it also has mediocre brakes. Suspension seems overly stiff, even for a racecar; making the handling erratic. Grip feels as if it's attached to an on/off switch, with said grip switch living inside of Schrödinger’s box. 130R flat? You'll die 63% of the time, but yes, 130R flat.
Potentially the quickest car, but also the most demanding car to drive. It would really, REALLY benefit from brake balance shifted to the rear (+50000000)."

*) We'd pay him for his exposés, but if you wait a little while, he posts them on his own :D

If I can't drive the Great British Jag then ok, the Nissan will have to do...
 
@bliprunner I'm quite late to the party on this, but it was a pleasure racing with you. Fair, courteous, clean and (too) fast. I couldn't ask for more.

The final safety car race where you seemed to materialize out of thin air on my rear bumper is definitely a harbinger of things to come...

Yes it was fun stuff. I probably bumped you a bit too hard in the final race but I was murdered at the start and was trying too hard to recover… and you came back and beat me anyway!

I'm amazed at how well you guys can remember the details of the race. By lap 3, I usually can't even remember what happened on lap 1.
During the TRC Sunday 500, I even forget which car I'm driving (darn bumper cam). 😅

Bumper can? Really? I switched from hood cam to cockpit a few months ago and it feels better in racing now. For some time trials and drifting I still prefer hood cam but never enjoyed bumper...
