Anyone want to practice I have a lounge open til racetime

Psn : skengdigi

I will be back n forth from the ps3 , just a warning if u send a msg and I take a while to reply
 
Connection was awful today it disconnected everytime there was a phone call :banghead:
In the feature race the position list said I was 8th, I could see everyone in front of me, the splits said I was up by 6 seconds :crazy:.
Can't race when it's like that. I hope it's better next week, fingers crossed.
 
"my opinion"

I'd like us to change cars to the Suzuki Cappuccino (EA21R) RM '95
http://youtu.be/Rr2JphDGfMc
OR
The TOYOTA Prius TC
http://youtu.be/90g_rPsRE9U

That way we could all have our own # and color, and its not much faster than the lupo

My Tracks Picks
1.)High Speed Ring Reverse
2.)Tokyo R246
3.)Suzuka Circuit
4.)Grand Valley Speedway
5.)Special Stage Route 5
 
Great racing again guys thanks..... everyone was on it last night. I got seriously lucky to win, but I'll take it. Lol. Tracks1) Tskuba ( spelling?). 2) Spa 3) Rome reverse 4) Autumn Ring 5) Monaco
 
It was a good finale, but sadly I think I'm done now, there's just too many series to commit to. Maybe we'll see again in a possible Super GT event, that'll be very entertaining no matter what position I have...
 
That was another awesome race.....man I struggled to make up time after the pit stop. Scale and Canu were just too quick, well done guys

My Track(s) Vote:

Grand Valley (the reverse one thats shorter)
Monaco
Spa
Nurb GP Short
Tokyo
 
David gave me some jokes yesterday , he's a nice addition to our group .

When he said Carbonox , that sound like a pokemon I was cracking up . I need to get a new mic , I can only hear you guys but you can't hear me . Ill get one over the holidays .

I can't remember the 2nd joke I got from David. Anyway jokes aside he drove a good race as a new member , hope he continues the series with us.

Don't be discouraged about the car David , that track was just very tough .I have used the pit early strategy and win races before so it can work we just did it at the wrong time this race.
 
Good race overall and well done to Canu for the win.
To be honest I nearly quit the race after being 'manhandled' but 4th was ok, maybe Homes or someone can just check the replay on my behalf cos I couldn't save it to inspect further (sector 2,before 1st pit window). I was experiencing a bit of lag with some drivers but that can be expected.
It was a tough track to have guys who are not used to each other because it is very tight. As long as every1 sticks to the rules then I'm in ;)
 
byo I felt your frustration literally when you smashed into me after you pitted , not sure if it was intentional but it sure seemed that way .

Lag was pretty heavy this race and I know your usually a clean driver so I will just give you a warning :)
 
I must admit I was pretty impressed with David as well, he had a great first race on a very tricky track. I think there was alot more bumping than usually purely because there were so many tight and heavy breaking areas. But I still think we have a great bunch of guys here and the racing is still way cleaner and more fair than any other room I've been in. As for lag...... well the only person i saw lagging was my teammate, no offense I just happens sometimes. I drilled him about three times when his car would just stop all of a sudden and then bolt 30m ahead. But everyone else seemed cool? I must have missed a lot of action. Lol. I remember hitting Homes really hard because of the lag and then Byo hit me really hard which shot me forward past Homes, but unfortunately Byo lost about 2 positions. Looks like you had an unlucky race dude..... I know how frustrating it is, but every dog has his day and well done for not quitting! :)
 
Awww guy's

SkengD: probably the F1 blown diffuser thing lol

Homes: had some bad lag every now & then, but not too often

worst parts of the race for me was when I'd run in to jam in front. thats why i pitted as soon as I did to "TRY" get away. It was also really hard to pass without contact. FF cars are not really my cup of tea because they feel really awkward to race. I had a good time with you guys thats why I want to change cars and not series.LOL... I know the Cappuccino RM puts on a hell of a race every time plus we could go to bigger tracks with out seeming like a fish out of water.

Good Time all in all
 
Very frustrating race indeed,it seems by combing worldwide racers creates a lot of lag, I know what Skeng is referring to because I saw him spin off on last corner but I can assure u on my screen I was a few meters behind and had no contact on my side while he claims I intentionally rammed him, maybe the replay shows otherwise but on my side that's what happened.
As far as the warning goes I don't think u are the one who dishes them out. My no.1 rule is clean driving, how is lag my fault, I merely asked if someone could review the replay for me and never accused anyone. If any1 has a problem with my driving there is clear rules to follow.
Maybe I'm running a bit hot. I respect every1 here equally so I expect the same returned ;)
 
Got your back Byo... no offense Skeng he's my homeboy and he's the cleanest driver in our room ;) let's keep it on the track guys ( I know I'm a fine one to talk haha ha). We justdid a classic GT500 championship David so we thought we would try something different for a change. FF has got it's own setup challenges, but i assure you we'll be going back to some rear wheel power straight after the Lupos. Hang I'm there bud :)
 
Guys please vote for your favourite 5 tracks to drive the Lupos on.

Mine are:
1. Road Course - Daytona
2. Spa
3. Grand Valley East Section / Reverse
4. Toscana
5. Côte d'Azur
 
1. Deep Forest
2. Monza
3. Trial Mountain
4. Laguna Seca
5. Monaco/Cote d'Azur
 
Was just pulling your leg Byo , I know it wasn't intentional .

Who has the best connection ? Whoever does it might be a good idea to make a public room for the races and just provide us with the room number .

We would have whoever is racing on the raceday post and confirm they are racing , that way we could have the exact number of drivers ready for the room , that way we don't get a bunch of randomers joining the room.

Just a thought , let me know what u all think

1 . Rome
2. Deep Forest
3 . Grand Valley Speedway
4. Monza
5. TrIal Mountain
5.

;) I hear what you saying SkengD, you came off worse due to lag and if I had known I would have let u take back your position. I'm quite competitive but I would rather come last then come 1st after crashing people ;)

As far as tracks go in no particular order:
1.Deep forest raceway
2.Grand valley east/reverse
3.Spa
4.Monaco
5.Laguna Seca

I think Monza could be cool but chicanes may create a problem if some guys cut and some don't etc.
 
Monza would be good .

I think we just penalize all who cut the chicane , that's why we have replays .

It can happen on occasion due to late braking on an overtake attempt or defense but once the driver doesn't abuse it . If you get what I'm saying
 
Thanks to those who have voted so far. Those that haven't, please get your votes in before the end of today (monday) so I can tally everything up.

Also, my attempt to save the replay of the sprint race seems to have not been succesful but I do have a photo's of the finishing results for both races. Can someone send me the grid for the sprint race so I can do the points?

Thanks in advance

:)
