GT6 [COMPLETED] Season 11-17 Throwback World Domination

Usual points as per league settings. No points for pole however.

To avoid the embarrasment of admitting i started La Sarthe by hitting reverse accidently, im going to do my race reviews in Emoji's!!
Monza:
Apricot Hill:
La Sarthe:

Found out during race I've got an early start tomorrow, so will sort results tomorrow arvo.

Not a great night, disconnected in Monza, had a good race in the Mazda but Seth was faster. In Le Mans my car was way down in power, don't know why, so was a sitting duck. Still a fun night.

@MINT_GTR I know now what happened at the hairpin on lap 2 race 2... It was a huge lag punt by you which sent me into the wall. Not your fault mate. It's carnage on replay though lol

didnt know damage was on i thought it was off all of the way throught

enjoyed that thoroughly.... Q on pole for monza but when I went to accept Gregory's friend request I froze up and had to re do my lap and started out of P3 finished 4th... Really happy with apricot hill started 4th was leading by lap 2 and won by 7 secs and did my first 1'26'xxx.. Great race Le Mans 6 of us finished within 10 secs and I snuck into 2nd... Great concept would like to see more of this in the gold silver bronze

That makes sense, from my end it was the slightest tap and I was confused how that sent you spearing off....figured it was me so I redressed. Although I did that poorly too causing @SirPoopington to run into me, sorry mate!!

Great racing guys, took awhile to get going but we made it!

My lack of practice made me quite rusty, as my qualifying lap was only good for 6th. The start was rubbish too, but with several cars getting penalties, it was a huge surprise to be right behind MINT and fighting for the lead! I kept thinking that this would finally be my big chance at a fantastic result, but the car snapped at the second Lesmo, and I put a wheel on the gravel. Luckily, my mic was not on.

So began the recovery, and it was extremely hard to gain anything among the pack. Unfortunately, Alfa was far too keen to pass, and at the Parabolica I was forced wide onto the grass, and left very unimpressed. Took the chance to pit, but I lost even more time as Beau pitted as well. CAGM got the undercut as well, and I was spitting chips.

The rest of the race felt like Abu Dhabi 2010, absolutely nothing happened. CAGM's final corner mishaps let me through to 6th at the line, just. Another chance at a win at Monza gone in as many weeks. Very disappointing.

Apricot Hill was a much happier affair, and a return to the Roadster was very welcome, a car I really enjoyed. It was a pleasure to be involved in some great battles along the way, but I was desperate to catch Beau for the win. I got the gap down to around 1.5 seconds before we decided to pit, but unfortunately, PD's pathetic pit stop mechanics meant the gap grew to around 5 seconds afterwards.

It was even worse for Rotor, who lost even more time! 4 seconds in only a few laps was a too difficult task, even though the gap shrunk quickly at the race's end. 2nd was a good recovery from Monza's failure.

Le Mans was a bit of a crazy one. I don't remember the car being this much of a handful in GT5 on this track, as such, braking and traction felt like a lottery. I got a terrible start, and Razor's forceful move into the 2nd Mulsanne chicane compromised Rotor and I heavily.

However, as the race continued, it seemed to be a 3 horse race between myself, Razor and MINT, until I oversteered into the barrier into the first Mulsanne chicane culled any chance of victory. Worse still, a ginger entry into the pits and the "whythef**kdidyoudothat" decision to put fuel in the car only added insult to injury.

I had a fantastic battle with Alfa at the end, but just held on for 3rd. It was a shame Monza was a bit of a disaster, as I may have walked away from tonight with the lead, but there's still many races to go. Plus, you can drop your worst of the first 9 races anyway. Fantastic support guys, I really appreciate it. I'll get the results done tomorrow, so tables can be done.

Cheers, Jono

I did well in bronze with a 1st, DSC, 3rd last night it was a lot of fun and we have 3 different winners from 3 races

I just jumped on to have a break from study. Was hoping to get my new pedals working, but had some issues..

Didn't do too well mainly due to my own mistakes, but was good to have some races.

Sorry Damo, haven't seen the replay but I think I should have readdressed at Apricot hill.

Cheers for hosting mate.

Sorry to the guys in the bronze room as I had to bail after the first race. Hope to see you guys next week as it was heaps of fun

that's no worries man... see you next week

There's been a protest launched in Silver Emmo, I'd hold off for now.

it was a great night overall...
at monza i qualified 2nd because @VARDZ had to re-do his qualifying lap... @v8power383 got poll
a few little stuff ups from me at monza sore me go from 2nd to 8th out of 9 drivers but i clawed my way back with other drivers making mistakes or pitting... i went into pit at about lap 8 in 1st and come out in p 4 @chrystalmighty was in front of me huge mistake and i went by him i can't remember who was in 2nd at the time but i got by that driver too... i bagged 2nd place

the 2nd race at apricot hill it was a reverse grid based on previous race results so i started in p 6 as @Peter Wise aka Copperj and a div 6 driver dropped out of the lobby i think i'm going from memory
the start was a good one i got a few spots going up the inside on the big left hand sweeper in the first lap i got to 3rd and was trying to catch @mmm_homebrew which he was in 2nd i couldn't do it until he went into pit then i went into 2nd & vardz had gap of about 3 to 4 seconds on me when i went into pit in 1st again i had about a 20 sec lead on vardz i think vardz overtook me & so did brew when i came out of pit i had @Crimj1985 on my tail he didn't go away until about the last few minutes... i bagged myself 3rd

at le mans some how i started in p 1 i held the lead for the first lap i went into pit straight up lap 1 get it out of the way i think on such a big track so iwent from 1st to 6th in front of @PurpleDog i made a few big mistakes surprised purple dog didn't catch me... about 3 laps went by i think most of the field had pitted which sore me in p 3 had another battle with brew & also crimj on my tail again(go away crimj lol) crimj got in my slipsteam & brews & vardz to steal 1st in the last minute lol... i came in 4th place

what an awesome set of races i loved it can't wait of next week
