That is a wash. Video it and post it to the Youtube if you get there halfway.

If it isn't too loud here

And Mel, are your ITCC YouTube videos supposed to have commentary?

I can manage that. We need to Skype, as I mentioned before. Then, I'll put the Madrid videos up, from all of the races (a time consuming process) on Tuesday, or sooner, while the parents aren't here, so that we all have the reference videos. Then, I'll do some of my mixing/editing/recording magic, and I'll eventually get it to work.



As for the Countdown timer, it's correct. Dave, it's like 3 A.M. in your area, Sunday morning. Believe me, there are less than 24 hours until the races start.

I can manage to Skype without problems during the week during the day. No one else is home- quiet! That's when I'll do all my recording this summer.

its closer to 6am, the only reason i thought it was meant to be later is because im almost 1 full day ahead of other people, (being australian), had it been 3am it wouldve been fine, but being "so late" in the day lol, "6am, i would make the start, and race 2 but depending on how long the event takes i might have to leave early, due to sporting commitments in the real world, lmao

I know what you mean brother. My boss was so generous as to let me have Saturday off. (I work 6 days a week)

So, you mean to say that you can't make it? Or...?

 

[TDZdave]

So, you mean to say that you can't make it? Or...?

race 1 and 2 easy, race 3, depending on the length of the event, is unknown,

 

[ITCC_Andrew]

race 1 and 2 easy, race 3, depending on the length of the event, is unknown,

Hmmmmm... that's a challenging predicament. I think we could pull something off, perhaps. I take it you want to leave before 7 A.M. your time? Or, perhaps, at 7 A.M. your time?

im being picked up between 7am -7.10am, if we assume the event will be over in the hour, its gonna be tight but alright, however, incase of pushing time i will be ready to leave before the event start, i think we should be ok

No problems man. I'll run this on a very strict schedule. I too need to run it on a strict schedule. From now on, the lobby will not wait for you. Sorry guys, but the races are going to run at a scheduled time. If everyone comes at 4:30 PM GMT-5, they should have time to realize "Oh, 🤬 I need to change the oil" in time to change the oil. After that, guys, it's up to you. Race 1 starts at 5:10 PM GMT-5. Race 2; 5:30 PM GMT-5. Race 3; 5:50 PM GMT-5.


Race 3 will be four or five laps, and therefore we will be done before 7 A.M., for Dave, and in Dave's time zone.

 

[NizmoDr3]

Anyone going online for some testing?

thanks man its a big help

You can. I'm just... not tired yet. So, I'll spend maybe 15 minutes more, then go to sleep, or shower and then sleep.

 

[NizmoDr3]

lol ... I forgot that I'm ahead of you people ... its only 9:00am here ...

 

[TDZdave]

lol ... I forgot that I'm ahead of you people ... its only 9:00am here ...

i might be on later, depending on how tired i get, got big day tomorrow,

 

[freshseth83]

ok you win, but having you known this information already before knowing what was available in the car listings, just shows.... im not saying anymore, other then it was your choice to run a RWD car, youve made your bed now lay in it, Mrm has already ended this "complaint/ arguement" about 7 pages ago, its entirely your choice to race, no ones forcing you to turn up,

wtf are you talking about? Maybe you need to reread what I've been saying. You don't give 2wd cars lower specs than 4wd cars. Front drive or Rear drive. 4wd has an advantage if the cars are the same spec. I'm not complaining about my car. I'm telling people how 4wd is. All this bull about me trying to get my way is so stupid and off the mark. It's pathetic to see you guys cry because I bring up something that's been proven in not just this series, but other series' on GTP and in real life. I don't even care what's done to the specs. I just know that the 4wd cars don't need to weigh less than RWD cars. They can keep the power since their 'not aerodynamic'. And notice I didn't say jack about the Subaru's. I said specifically the 1100kg EVO. Now please, can you and your cohorts get off my back? I don't need to clamor for breaks to my car to win races. I've won races without this car. Which is my point. If I'm saying that the 4wds are way too fast at only 1100kg, I should be heard out. I'm trying to prevent a walk by any one person. Not complaining because they're faster than me, that doesn't matter because I welcome a challenge. But all the complaints against me, and how good my cars are, I think it's time you heard what is really needing to be said.

anyway, we will see if your concerns come to fruition in less then 12 hours, i cant wait, good luck to all,

i understand your concern with AWD, more so if it was 400-500 hp at 1100 kg, even still at 276hp, they are going to run away for maybe a lap, then the tires are going to go off and rapidly, does it really matter if you dont lead every lap? infact with the scoob, honestly, im hopeing for top 5, a win would be great, but not on the cards, i believe, well not with my setup anyway,

anywho, im off, i will see you all in about 9 hours and see if these AWD concerns come to fruition, good luck peeps,

 

[NizmoDr3]

Well good luck to all the drivers ... Its gonna be a tough race but I'm sure things will get evened out on the track ...

Mel has said many times, wait until the race and let's see what happens. It's time you should listen to that advice. You need to learn to let things go and not have to be defensive about every little comment that comes your way. If it's true that you should be heard out because the 4wd's are too fast, then it's also true that you should hear others out when they say that the GT86 has a huge tire wear advantage and is exceptionally fast given it's specs. If it's also true that you "don't care what's done to the specs" then start acting that way and you might gain some credibility. As it is you are beginning to look like a spoiled child throwing a tantrum.

Alrighty then. I am still testing right now.

Ran a 1.30.3 with medium tires just a second ago. Hopefully that is on pace with the pack.

I certainly don't. Actually, could you hop in sooner? I'll be around in a few minutes. My mom's calling me for something...
