Hey Raptor. Welcome to div 3 and congrats on making the nationals! I normally host Sunday nights, so if you see me online join my room or send me a message so we can test out your connection. I have sent you a friend request.
Welcome tf22 this is my second season of rooz ...on line racing and I'm loving it I'm sure you will to good luck .
Hey welcome Raptor, great to see you on here mate! Great bunch of guys here and some awesome clean racing. This is a great season to join with the Mazda roadster(my first season also). Some extremely close racing is being produced.
Hi fastboysmith I didn't make the top 18 I was going through until a I had a shocker in the Round 3 and red lighted it, I don't think I came across you at the event? Did you get through?
Ah so did you get the second 370 with the fresh clutch? My drive was straight after Rotor. Just as it decided to rain. I dont think it rained before or after my stint. I don't really think it changed my destiny anyway. Hadn't driven a clutch car for 18mths
What a total disaster.. On the initial room reset for quali I was stuck on the loading screen. Tried to quit game and the PS3 reset and then it had to do the hard disk check. Once I got back, couldn't join the room. Not sure if was just me that had problems, but thanks guys for trying to get things working again. Once we got going in Stumbles room I could only see 6 cars on track, but could see chat messages from other people, so clearly there must have been more cars there somewhere. By this time the countdown had begun so instead of risk it I pulled off the grid as quick as I could and tried to park up somewhere safe. Connection dropped out soon after. Worst GT experience I've ever had.
Bad luck Floodsim, we've all had a night like that (or will have one like that at some point). Unfortunately there's not much you can do - just look forward to next week.
Horrible night for me too. Wife wanted to watch X-factor but knew I had a race on. Once I got her off the TV I was getting room incompatibility error despite never having an issue joining a room before. Was able to get into stumbles room and had no practice time on the night or qualifying (too bad for me). Started 9th (could only see 9 cars) and found it hard to pass others. Went long on the first stint and somewhere on the second I think I spun in the tunnel. Managed 5th on my screen but then once result countdown ended I jumped down to 7th. Sorry to anyone if I couldn't see them but they could see me.
Sorry to Hatfield and Floodsim who I was frantically trying to send messages too, but PSN wouldn't let me. Something weird happened with my cable. Foxtel was out, and I had no internet access, yet I was happily hosting the room? weird! I was just about to give up and call it a night, when the wife yelled out 'Foxtel's back on!'. So I gave it one last go and made it into Stumbles room just in time. I assume Serge and Sparkie couldn't get in? Not a great night all round. Sure made up for the perfect night we had last week. Well done Moozer and podium. Way too quick.
Yes it was a shocker alright .qualified 4th .Starting a race in 4th gear is not recommended dropped back to last started to make up some positions and spun a couple of times then picked up again pitted twice having a good battle with about nine to go the disconnected !
I qualified alright I guess. Did a mid 1.08 which was fairly happy with. But when the race started it bugged for me, I couldn't see the speedo or any information. So hit the pause button, which fortunately brought it back, but that allowed doogle to go past. Was running okay with groover/moozer/doogle, being careful not to touch others, was some nice little duels going on.But ran wide on turn 2. This saw me fall back to the mid pack. Got a good run up the main straight on raptor, but got ran off onto the grass. In an effort to turn to stay on the track I spun. This put me right at the back. I put my head down and saw time to the leaders dropping. However, after 1st pit (which seemed to take longer than others?!?) I came out and was having a duel with Hatfield. Unfortunately, I wasn't fast enough to shake him from my draft, and kept getting caught into turn 1 / 2. With a bit too much contact through turn 2. Although, in hindsight I should have just enjoyed the high speed chess, but was still spewing about the earlier spin. Shocking race, had some decent pace, but just got stuck out of track position. Looking forward to the future rounds.
Sorry skywalker for whatever reason when Gary left and started the new room I was only seeing 5 other cars in the game. By the end of the race there was only 3 other cars on my screen, I thought I was in 2nd place the entire race I could see Doodle 4seconds ahead and the next closet car to me 10-15 seconds back, the entire race I was by myself apart from the 1st or 2nd lap. I added all but 2 of the people who had sent me friends requests b4 the first session started and I could see a full grid of cars then. So I'm not sure what's going on there? Crazy to think I'm thinking I'm driving around by myself, could everyone else see me or?
