ok guys, only a few hours to go before we kick off into another season......there have been a few drivers indicated they will be away tonight due to their romantic side winning out ! Hope they get a trophy of another sort . With the drop round it wont hurt their championship chances. Thanks to everyone for your patience in what has been a pretty big learning curve...a couple of things before we start.. 1. Please try to be on time, it will be up to the room captains to get the qual and race started. if you are late they may not wait....i would be "trying" to get into the lobby at about 7:45 EDST to sort any issues. If you message your room captain before hand they may be a little lenient with the start time, however this will be up to the individual rooms. The room host will have to get out the invites as soon as they get online and get the room settings sorted.... 2. dont forget to ACTIVATE YOUR PIT STRATEGY before qualy...if you have it set before all you will need to do is activate it. 3. ROOM SETTINGS.....please make sure you follow the time and date settings in the opening post of each division thread. This gives us a clear picture of everyone on a level track, and helps us with division placement moving forward into other seasons and series. 4. MICS. As has been stated previously, mics are to be off during so drivers arent distracted by people talking during the race. This is just common courtesy, so please respect our fellow racers. I WOULD HOWEVER SUGGEST that the room convo be on when getting the room started. The quality is crap, but it should be enough to get things sorted. 5. DRIVING STANDARDS. Yes, broken record time.....bottom line is we want hard but FAIR racing. If you make illegal contact with another car, and gain an advantage PLEASE REDRESS. EG : hit someone up the arse and push them offline to get past expect a penalty if you don't redress. Penalties are usually a pit lane drive through, in the case of snetterton, its about 20 seconds that will be added to your race time, if an offence is proven. Remember that EVERY CORNER IS NOT A PASSING OPPORTUNITY, and that the car being passed has just as much responsibility as the car making a CLEAN pass. Using another car as a rail, or extra brake isnt on so please use your common sense with this. 6. TRACK LIMITS: Drivers MUST have at least 2 wheels on the track, or ripple strips at all times (or attempt to). Any drivers who are clearly cutting the track to gain an advantage will incur a penalty. This track is pretty good, and unlike GT6, the game hurts you more by going off anyway, so i dont think this will be an issue....be aware though ! 7. Save your race replay ! this helps with any protests and any decision that needs to be made. 8. PROTESTS : If you feel there is a need to protest the result of the race, or the driving standards of another competitor, please PM me and your room captains. DO NOT PLAY IT OUT IN THE FORUM. There can quite often be extenuating circumstances with these issues, so its best to follow a little caution until we get all the facts and info in front of us before making a decision. After the long and drawn out process of getting it all organized, we really hope the season is filled with great close racing and a hard fought championship in all 4 divs. Remember we have site sponsors we are representing, any information to them from the teams would also be welcomed......photos etc always look great on the forum too Cheers Stu / mod team
Thx stu and mod team for all the yards ya put in. Good luck to all, hope ya have a fun season with some awesome racin
So angry so so so angry, game froze and Sony restarted. So frustrating after hours of practice felt good in the few laps I did. Could of been spending the time railing ruts and nailing sluts Anyways I might not race again Ill let everyone know a couple days into next week
Unbelievable...... over the moon to finally not have to look at the timer since my last ROOZ Overall win!!!! It's been far too long!!! http://www.timeanddate.com/countdown/to?year=2014&month=9&day=28&hour=0&min=0&sec=0 Snetterton was definatley one of my best tracks this season, so i know I'm well up against it for the next 6!! Looking forward to battling it out with some of the others who sadly got caught up in a fairly hectic opening lap or weren't able to make the start. Bring on next week
Qualifying Race: 11th: SamsungRacer1998 12th: Finchy 13th: Giant_Slayer 14th: Ragoo FL: @Hatfield or @COME_AND_GET_ME7 , sorry for tagging both, i don't know which one of you is handling PCars Tables
Good race guys, apart from a bit of lag, hope I wasn't the one lagging? Qualifying went terrible, and the race went even worse, lets hope next week I can improve a bit and not spin a dozen times!
I've got the Replay, but i am missing some drivers for some reason, including Fastboy who i had a fun first 8 laps with :'(
Had a pretty good race , Start got botched by a couple of slow cars off the mark , then there was the usual bit of tap here tap there going on in front of me , then there was some sort of kafuffle at the first hair pin where every one came to an abrupt holt , I ended up in the side of Cows and pushed him wide so I waited for him to go by and got back on with it in last. So I'm thinking my race is done , and just made sure I stayed in touch with the pack, then people started to fall off take or lock together out of a corner then all of a sudden I found my self in 6th with Sickskill chasing me down , he would close in under brakes but I had good power down and could get away . This went on for a few laps then sick dropped back , then Emu appeared on the gap screen , I think Cows fell off some were then Fastboy pit for tires and I found my self in third . Emu started to make in roads on me , gaining a second each lap and with both of us not stopping for the race any mistake would see one gain and one lose . Emu closed right in and was on my hammer when that funny aero thing happened , the rear of my car got upset then next thing Emu's car went around witch gave me a breather . I was nursing the tires towards the end when Fastboy popped up and easily disposed of me back to fourth , my front tires were screwed and not holding temp plus Emu was on the charge . The last was one of the hardest laps I have ever done and I managed to hold of Emu for fourth . Thanks for reading .
