GT6 [COMPLETED] Nascar series 3 ?

Sorry Joe, it took me while to figure out why I suddenly had no power, I should have got off the racing line sooner and I didn't see you coming.

I saw a few guys touch the yellow line at the bottom on the turn at full speed and then start pirouetting... Stu and Bj did it right in front of me (different laps), I did the NASCAR thing... Shut eyes and plow on through the smoke... It didn't work...lol

I think I copped 3 or 4 lag hits before I started avoiding Scotty's draft...lol

Yeah, I made sure I kept clear of the inside line and I was coasting behind the pack and could see what was happening with scotty, I did end up hitting Closey and someone else as they spun in front of me after they had been lag punched, I lost count of the number of hits I saw Closey get, sometimes he was knocked about 20 feet in the air!!!. I got one small hit early, a direct front on hit and only knocked about 50K off my speed with out spinning me. Later on Scotty and I were together battling for the lead so I just cruised along behind him, unfortunately he was holding me up a little and I had to bite the bullet and try to pass. That resulted in a hit as we passed the pit entrance that stopped me from 300 kmh to zero in a bout 2 feet???. Luckily I caught up to the pack again quickly with the boost. As we entered the last lap I had the challenge of pushing to the finish while keeping away from scotty and also avoiding one of Colin's shoulder charges . unfortunately I didn't get to see how it would pan out.

We're working on things Serge. It would be nice if PD fixes it pretty soon though...

I noticed the tyre wear problem in practice and had adjusted my plan around it. I pitted lap 98 and only had 12 laps to the end so had plenty of tyre left for the finish but no fuel DOH. Warrior was on about the same strategy and had plenty of tyre left at the end.

No worries Dek....How was Husky?


Nascar ladders updated.

Well done to warrior for the championship win, with anon and stig13 rounding off the podium.

In the teams championship well doe to Warrior and Evilmoon for their win. Anon / stumbles and Mustafur / Midron18 finished off the podium.

I had an eventful race, took about 10 aps for my heart rate to come down after being kicked just before the start......God the network gives me the s sometimes !

I had a huge spin on about lap 8 or 9, then was out of sinc with the pit stops, but knew i should be ok with the boost.

In my second stint i let my RR get down to 1, had a spin into the pits, got a drive through, then had to baby it round again so i didnt swap ends !

Rest is a bit of a donought blur to be honest, till i was leading with 4 to go, and the pack chased me down super fast. Last 2 laps was a great scrap with Col, scotty and warrior just mis-timing my run to the line.

Good win scotty, take em while you can and col, great run mate for 4th.

Well done everyone, and thanks for your support of another NASCAR series !

Will look to perhaps do another mid year, and we can run the motegi bull ring as well. perhaps a 5 race, oval only series.

Great work Stu, however it pains me to say there are a couple of small errors, much as I like the way the ladders look I actually finished 10th at Daytona on Sunday after running out of fuel, Stumbles came from a lap behind and also ran out fuel but had enough momentum to roll past me and beat me to the line by just over 2 seconds.
So 10 points for me and 11 for Stumbles puts T_B, Ad2, Stumbles and I equal on 80 points. A count back would move all of them up one place and put me down to 12th.
Also I like where the world renowned Team Amigos (Ad2 and I) sits in the team ladder but in fact there was a miscount in the R4 results that had us 10 points above our combined outright points. Removing those ten points along with the one point individual reduction for me gives us a total team tally of 160. That drops us from a handsome 4th to a miserable 7th and moves the current 5th thru 7th up a place each. Sorry Ad.
I only realised this as I was gloating to myself for our team beating Closey, It was then I realised that both Closey and Gary finished ahead of both Ad2 and me in the individual championship and therefore should have been ahead as a team. I then checked the tables and found the error. I was very tempted to just shut up but I wouldn't be able to live with myself.

Count me in, I want another crack at this to try and raise my self esteem, I made a cockup of every race.

Thanks Emmo....will adjust in the next few days. Maths was never my strong point, thats why i hit tennis balls !

Who does the scoring at tennis??

that i can manage ok !

all fixed.
