    Whats the best case scenario though I get a point extra? Not worth the hassle for all involved.

    Hey Kane in scenario #2 i think That was me? If it was my apologies. i remember starting to turn and noticed something in my LHS at the point i had committed to the turn causing the other car to come off an spin. But in saying that by all means lodge it and i will happily supply video if need be. i haven't watched it yet so can t be 100% (will have a look tonight for my own piece of mind). i don't wanna be robbing someone of points.

    Hey mate thanks for coming forth I didn't wanna throw anyone under the bus but nah all good mate we all make mistakes (definately me) and the result would be trivial anyways, if it was a case of 2nd or 3rd or what not then maybe I'd pursue it further.

    I also think it'd be a hard one to judge as I initially :):):):)ed up trying to pass you and went in too deep but managed to rectify the situation and managed to make it work but I was on my way to take totally the wrong line for the next corner and just when I was about to push across we made contact. It could also be said that maybe I should of eased off the throttle and tucked in behind you to avoid the scenario altogether

    Bring on next round :D

    Was a bit easier to turn into someone in project cars 1 but with proximity arrows in pcars 2 it's a lot easier to gauge where the other car is. Unless some of you guys don't have it turned on. Also the spotter is another good way to indicate where the other car is. It gets annoying sometimes but it can save avoidable incidents.

    Hey man, it’s all good. If i cock up I will own up, I was going to PM last night but you logged off real quick and then work today was busy AF (been off for a week) I have just watched my replay - and am thinking ‘wow that’s not how I remember it last night’ what I thought happened kinda did happen but not quite as I remembered it - the importance of saving replays - reflection! Yeah I agree she’s a tricky one but to be fair I would be happy no matter what way it got ruled by a marshal.

    I would like to to bring on the next round but it’s Ruapuna.... hahaha

    P.S - you have a bus to throw people under?? Could you help a brother out, I have an ex that..... I’ll stop there anymore could be incriminating..

    See you on the track soon.

    ROUND 3 : RAUPUNA : SPRINT ROUND : 1/3/18
    1 x 17 lap / 1 x 18 lap (formation lap)

    - Qual Time - @ 4pm - (1 weather slot - Heavy Cloud)
    - Race Time - @ 5pm - (Light cloud /Medium cloud)
    - Time progression - REAL
    - Compulsory pit stop - NO
    - Fuel : OFF
    - TYRE WEAR : Authentic
    - Weather progression : Sync to race
    - Time progression : Real time
    [​IMG]

    OK all .... SPRINT ROUND TIME !
    QUAL : 10 mins as normal
    RACE 1 : 17 laps as normal.
    RACE 2 : 18 laps..... For race 2, the room host will set up with the same regs as race 1, BUT ADD 1 LAP.
    - Cars will line up on the grid as normal, BUT ON THE GREEN LIGHT ALL CARS WILL STOP BEFORE TURN 1 AND LINE UP IN REVERSE ORDER FROM RACE 1.

    - DO NOT FALSE START AS YOU WILL HAVE TO SERVE A DRIVE THROUGH
    - Once in reverse order the lead car will lead the field round at 'approx" 100KPH.
    - Please try to stay within 1 car length of the car in front
    - BEFORE the last turn, the lead car will slow to 80KPH, and will start the race on the exit of 'The Rock" sweeper.
    - NO PASSING or OVERLAP till the start finish line.

    Please make sure you are clear how this will work as its a lot different to our normal round races.

    ROUND 2 ISSUES
    : Well done last week to everyone. Only 2 incidents that were protested, pretty good job from everyone across all 4 divs. Can always be better though. Please remember if you have an incident you wish to protest you must have your protest IN VIA PM, by no later than 12 midnight on the Monday night.


    ROOM OPEN : Most room captains will 'try' to have rooms open by about 7:50 EDST. Please be on time, or let the room captain or div thread if you may be late. If all agree, the room may wait for you, Within reason. Please remember we have drivers from NZ, and later starts mean a much later night for them.
    QUALIFYING : 8:10 EDST
    RACE START TIME : 8:20 EDST

    LAG ISSUES / ROOM RESTARTS :
    This is up to the room host. If there is a Disconnection at race start, it is sporting to try to get them back in, which may mean a new room to be set up. I always look at 1 or 2 starts if required due to DSC, but as it gets later everyone needs to be aware of getting things going. Please be as reasonable as you can with this....


    TURN 1 LAP 1 : Is a slippery track, and a few of our drivers have been left chasing the pack after avoidable contact. I can see lap 1 being a nightmare if you all go in too hot, and more importantly, dont give room on the inside..Anything off line does seem particularly slippery .... goal is 0 contact for a race !

    TRACK LIMITS : As we are running with 'track limit penalties" OFF, we will run with our usual Raceonoz track limit regulations. This means you MUST have at least 2 wheels on the ripple strip OR white line that defines the track limit. There are a couple of spots drivers will have to be aware of cutting. Main spots i have seen the chance to cut have been Turn 3 (fast left kink) and 9-10 (savage esses). Is a tough track to pass on, so you will need to be patient, and ALL drivers will need to give racing room. That INCLUDES the car being passed. If you mess up give the spot back. Guarantee you get through the first 2 laps when the field shakes out, there will be minimal issues.

    CONTACT : Still not as good as it could be guys, everyone needs to be better here...We have lost 1 driver through frustration, which is the last thing i want. We want a strong league with full grids, and clean racing is the most important ingredient in that.

    COMPULSORY PIT STOP : N/A THIS ROUND

    PIT ENTRY / EXIT : N/A THIS ROUND

    BLUE FLAGS : Please observe blue flags, and move out of the way of faster cars if you are being lapped. With the 2 classes there is slightly more chance of blue flags coming into play, so you should be aware of the leaders coming up on you, and move out of the way as soon as possible. Best to get off the race line, and with a small lift let them go, so you can continue the fight with those in your class. Failure to observe blue flags WILL result in a penalty

    STEWARDS GROUP AND RACE PROTESTS : This season the stewards will be myself, Ad2mny and Garyw61. If you have reason to protest, please SAVE YOUR REPLAY, and then let us know via a PM BEFORE MIDNIGHT THE MONDAY FOLLOWING THE RACE

    DO NOT BLOW UP IN THE FORUM OR IN THE ROOM CHAT. There have been multiple incidents where the replays from drivers have been different, so its true that sometimes things are not as black and white as they may seem. You have until MIDNIGHT, Monday night to register your protest via PM. We will ask for video evidence from both drivers or room captain to make any decision.

    SAVE YOUR REPLAY : If the room host can ask all drivers to save their replay would be good before exiting the room.....once they exit out and the option goes, it cant be retrieved !

    Quick note for qually tonight boys.
    DO NOT CROSS THE LINE ONCE THE TIMER HAS HIT ZERO!!!!. Return to the pits, if you don't the first to do so will have their game freeze on them. Is a common fault since the last patch.

    Absolutely filthy, first race of the season for me and the PS decides not to let me play. I kept getting kicked out of the room. Maybe next week

    Race 1

    [​IMG] [​IMG] [​IMG]
    familiagtr DSC from race start. Restarted room but @freddyp_33 had issues at the start and DSC also sent
    message he was out. Nathan retired.

    Race 2

    [​IMG] [​IMG]

    An event to forget for me.

    Totally distracted at the start when in the opening lane I noticed we were down 1 again, and then the message from Freddy saying he was out. Normally have my phone standing up so I can give it a quick glance but it’s out of its cover and won’t stand up so was laying flat on the rig. When I looked up again after reading the message I was coming to the hairpin turn after the first left way too fast and spun. Then I couldn’t work out which part of the track I was supposed to be on and by the time I’d worked that out was a long way back. Made a couple places back during the race but still I feel I could have done better.

    Race 2 and I got away well with the leaders, but a couple laps in battling for the lead with @LOW_NZ got good drive out the final turn managed to get my nose ahead but it was a braking battle into turn one with him holding the advantage on the outside. I already had the brake to the floor trying to outbrake him and I could tell he was gonna cut down in front for the turn but I had nothing left. Of course I turned him around and I think @Glenn Stimson got caught up in it as well. Somehow I tapped him again as he tried to rejoin so we ended up at the back of the field.

    Once again made up a few spots but still a disappointing race.

    Well done to the podium positions.

    Qualified 2nd behind @stimsonglenn great lap mate.
    Got a good start behind him with @Ant_427 behind me. this was how it stay for the duration of the race with glenn slowly pulling away from ant and me but the 17 lap battle between ant and myself was epic. Great pressure mate had a ball I don't think the gap ever got greater than about 2 seconds was great fun.
    Race 2 started second last behind ant and glenn behind me first lap was all clear and I made a small gap to glenn lap 2 there was coming together at turn 1 giving @familiagtr a comfortable lead with ant going into 2nd and I was 3rd and a comfortable gap to 4th. I started to apply pressure to ant and on about lap 7 he braked early into the first hair pin because someone had taken out the marker at the same time I had had a good run out of turn 2 and was trying for a run on him but I gave him a tap sending him wide. With no real time lost familia had made a mistake too and it was now a 3 way battle. I'm not sure what happened a few laps later because my daughter came in and asked me something and somehow I was into 2nd only to be confused as to what part of the track I was on and spun myself. Got going again behind familia with glenn coming in fast. The last few laps where great fun with glenn spinning on the final turn.
    Congratulations to all on a enjoyable race on a slippery track.
    See you at the next one.

    Congrats all, I had a good view of everything form the back of the race xD

    Didn't really have any chance to put any hours in this week.. well I did but The Witcher is taking all my free time at the moment, awesome game!

    Took me a long time to come to grips with the track accompanied with me altering my driving style I was way off the pace.

    Anyways once again to the consistent top 5.. I planning to put a few more hours in this week so hope to keep up with you boys(as long as I don't spin every corner)

    to add to that my mic for my headset is :):):):)ed so I didn't mean to snob ya boys should have a new one by next round :)

    Well done all for a great race last night. Congratulations to Glenn for the win in race 1 and the those on the podium in both races. Spent the majority of race one behind Ant b in one of the best battles I've had to date, good racing mate. Happy to get my first win for the season in the second race.
    See you all next week.

    A lot more grip at this track so should make things a little easier but if you push too hard it lets go easy as you would expect. I don't get much practice in so I watch the boys hot laps as much as I can looking for little tips and that has helped

    By my calculations glenn takes the round win and you get second by half a point. Great fun looking forward to the next round.
