You did, I think. There were enough people to let some non-practicers in.

Tree'd by the woman herself.
 
Too many people trying to join, PD won't allow it. :rolleyes:
 
Kaz is racit towards me. :/
 
And of course it had to be me.

Bad luck strikes again when I'm on the way to a good points race. Tired of PSN.

Good racing at the start however. 👍

This couldn't have gone any worse.
 
Gonna go ahead and say I don't have any place here.

Nas stop i saw the stream and i felt like you just gave up like many said i think you should join GT300 and really try because when you do like last year at apricot hill you can win but thanks for keeping up the stream and showing the GT300 battle which was a great last 10 laps GJ @Whitetail and @AJHG1000 Kross couldn't do anything coming to the line.
 
A better race than Motegi and some brilliant action with the other GT300s in the early laps and after the caution. Just got caught out by the yellow which curtailed my 1-stop gamble.
 
Very nice racing. Although if I hadn't binned it in the first corner resulting in the FCY (and my lag too), I probably would have come in a higher position, but I'm satisfied with what I got.
 
Watched the finish...that was hot racing between @Kross24 and @AJHG1000 at the end. BoP did a fantastic job, so I consider that my personal victory. Race report should be up tomorrow night. Any complaints or appeals should be dealt with in a PM to me. Congrats to @Whitetail on another GT500 win.

I was surprised when I saw you didn't pit when @Kross24 and I did during the caution, I admit you could have an opportunity there
 
Heads up, all the remaining VRR Super GT races for the season are up in the community club page.
 
I think I'm going to go relatively easy on the track limits penalties. Everyone at some point broke them, so penalties will now mostly be for things like avoidable contact, pit lines, and that serious stuff.
 
Okay, I know I have no power when it comes to sanctions and how the race is carried out but I do have a few suggestions to both the drivers and organizer of this championship:

Multi-class traffic behavior: I extremely urge everyone to watch these videos and practice more to get a feel of what the flow should be. At Mid-Field I observed that the slower cars were scattering like beheaded chickens at the sight of a GT500 coming up behind them which did cause some issues unfortunately. GT500s also need to know when and when not to dive into an overtake, if you can't get alongside them before the apex then wait until after. Is it slower? Yes. Is it expected of you? It should be.

"LHM" and lagging: I'd like to request that Limp Home Mode "LHM" be added somewhere in the regulations and define what it means, does, and when you're expected to use it. Also, drivers, if you're reported for lagging you need to go to LHM before you cause an accident. Continuing to race when you know that you are lagging should be considered reckless driving in my book. Not only can you ruin someone's race by lag-punting them but you can ruin a lot of other peoples' by causing an accident which neutralizes the race. I know I still won yesterday's event in GT500 but having a 30+ second lead erased and allowing second to go onto newer tires with little penalty all because people were stubborn and wouldn't yield at the sight of lag isn't right in my honest opinion, and it could've easily ruined my race as well as the ones who were punted. FCYs should be for terrible weather conditions or other outstanding issues, not for people who don't want to accept the fact they're dangerous and need to yield to keep the race going smoothly and fairly.

Restarting a neutralized race: I'd like this to be covered in more detail. When am I allowed to go? When the car in front of me goes or when I see the control car go? etc. etc.

Microphone usage: Try to keep it race-related please. And by race related I mean what's actually happening on the track, not strategies and other things like that which should be discussed with other means of communication ie. Skype. I'm certain nobody cares how fast you went that last lap or how pretty your car is in the sunlight.

@nascarfan1400: Dude, seriously, it's getting old. Majority of the people here think you would be better off in GT300s. Don't say you don't belong there either based off of last season either, there are completely new drivers and the fastest ones are in GT500 now. Drivers that are on your level, people you can race with. Please for the sake of your reputation of being a decent human being at least give it a shot. Hell, take the easiest car there is to drive, steal all of the setups, but you need to get track time to get better. Are you going to be fast all of the time? No. Are you going to be competitive? Not always. But you're not going going to get any better with an "I quit" attitude. Track time is the number 1 way to get faster.

This.

I don't remember seeing you in FP1 or FP2, then you come in 30 minutes before the race and complain about being terrible and your car sucking. Do you think that any of the other GT500s ( or Gt300s ) just showed up and started running competitive times? And by the way, this "I don't belong here" thing is 100% self inflicted. Why would you continue running in a class you know you can't compete in, when theres another class that has a wide array of skill levels where you would be extremely competitive?

@Whitetail shall we give nas our Silverstone setup so he can have a base? :D
 
Race Report has been finalized and published in the OP.

Points for manufacturers and drivers have been updated in the OP.
 
I understand having @GTRacer22 serving the penalty at the next round but why was another 10 seconds added on when he never had the opportunity to serve in the first place? He disconnected and before a first pit stop I believe. That was out of his control and shouldn't be an additional penalty IMO.

As for Apricot Hill I do not expect to win, or even a podium at that given how much ballast I have. As long as I have a clean race and do not get into any trouble with other cars I'll be content wherever I finish. Not to mention Apricot isn't one of my best/favorite tracks.

Congrats to the winners and podium finishers at Mid-Field. I had a great battle with @JACKOLANTERN1 for the first part of the race and was relieved when I finally caught a break with traffic.

Let's all learn from this experience and have an even better race at Apricot now. :cheers:

He had made a pit stop before he disconnected and hadn't served it. Which is why it was doubled.
EDIT: That particular pit stop happened on lap 20.
