    Well that is a shame. I bet @emmo46 and @Matthyus will be feeling a bit more relaxed now. I might have to put some NOS in the old girl to try and keep up. :D:roflmao::sneaky:

    So,

    TL : DR version
    @emmo46 made his car fat and I couldn't pass when on my good tyres. Once my tyres were ruined from trying to pass, etc I couldn't keep up with his pace over the mid sectors. Plus racing as close as we were for 8 ish laps, I was ruined.. It was the closest I've ever raced.

    With drop round calcs done, you are in front by 5.
    I need to win and nab a bonus point next week to secure the championship. you just need to beat me.
    Who wouldn't want it any other way.

    You don't need a bonus point unless I get one. If you and I finish equal on points then you win on countback with the most wins. I need to beat you no matter where you finish unless I can be second to you and get both bonus points. It will be less challenging to actually beat you than to get both bonus points.
    The first 8 laps were very intense. I have never had anybody so keen on massaging my rump at every corner. I couldn't relax until you dropped out of my slipstream. Really great clean racing and I don't know why people say you can't go side by side through the esses in sector one.

    Yamagiwa. What a race. I was so intent on breaking up the @emmo46 and @Matthyus monopoly that i pushed to hard in the first 2 laps and pushed wide twice letting about 4 cars get passed me. I focused on lines and rhythm after that and had some great battles with @sparklehead83 @webnomad and @Peersy that went pass drop pass drop over and over until it all started to pay off.
    I pitted end of lap 11 as i had decided to do and seemed to work ok for me as i had done plenty of testing during the week and stuck to my decision. That put me out in front of @webnomad but @Peersy covered me and stuck with me to the end and i had to push all the way. We had some good respectful hard fought racing along the way. Cheers mate. I was mindful that @RPeeM808 and @kiwinado were out for the night and needed to make the most of my opportunities which i did. To finish 3rd behind the (should probably be in Div 2 Guys) was a highlight for me this season. Woohoo. Last race is going to be crazy on a 52 sec lap track. LET’S GET SOME

    Anyone up for a drive in a Gr4 VW Scirocco tonight at the Nurb GP track? One of my SPCC drivers has had to withdraw and I need a driver?

    Round 7: Maggiore Centre - 52 Laps - 18:15 Sunny - 21/3

    WELCOME to Season 14!!
    As always please take 2 mins to read the following so you have an understanding of what is expected on race night.
    If you have any questions, or want clarification on any of the rules or regulations please ask!

    ROOM OPEN : Most room captains will 'try' to have rooms open by about 7:50 AEDT. 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 : 8:20 AEDT for 10 mins. If a driver joins while qualifying mode is active, room captains will need to grab a quick photo of qualifying results, cancel the race and then set grid by host.
    In practice mode, once 10 mins has been reached, finish the lap you are on and park up off track. (Qualifying mode should be used so the room can be set to x0 tyre/fuel for qualifying)
    YOU MUST START ON YOUR QUALIFYING TYRE

    RACE START TIME : 8:30 AEDT (once qualifying has completed)

    LAG ISSUES / ROOM RESTARTS : This is up to the room host/captains. If there is a Disconnection (or cars stuck on grid) 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....
    SIGHT ISSUES: Ensure that you can see everyone on track. Before qualifying, exit to lobby and spend 30 seconds in spectate mode, scroll through the list of drivers on track and make sure that you can see their car. If you can't see somebody (and they are confirmed as being on track), exit the lobby, re-join, and check again.

    FALSE START CHECK : Please note that the start type is Grid Start with False Start Check
    Please practice this so you know what to expect. Simply, you hold the brakes on until the lights go from all lit, to none lit


    TURN 1 LAP 1 : This has the potential to ruin someone's night if we don't use our heads! Should be everyone's goal to get through the first phase with ZERO contact. Give room and run in your 'lane' till you have space to run the normal race line. If your unassisted tap causes someone to spin, you need to redress.

    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. If you do make a mistake and have to run outside the limits, be aware that you are not allowed to gain any advantage.

    CONTACT : Is to be avoided at all times..... If you rear end someone and gain an advantage, YOU ARE EXPECTED to give the spot back. Side by side 'rubbing' is racing, within reason, but all drivers are expected to give racing room.
    If you bump someone and they end up off track or teleport back to the corner entry, you must wait for them to rejoin and get back up to speed.
    Show each other RESPECT! It is difficult enough to drive the car at the limit on your own, without someone squeezing you within a millimeter of the grass.
    So be patient and show respect to your fellow drivers.
    If you are redressing contact, please do so out of the way of other cars, off the racing line, or if there isn't much room, off track.

    TYRES : Sports Mediums (mandatory - unlimited sets) & Sports Softs (not mandatory - 1 set ONLY)

    PIT ENTRY : The Pit entry is to be followed at ALL TIMES. 4 wheels across the line that determines Pit Entry will be seen as a violation of track limits and you will be subject to a penalty depending on severity and quantity of cuts.
    As the full circuit pit lines are on the track here, the only thing to worry about is to NOT CUT THE STRIPED TRIANGULAR AREA LEADING INTO THE PIT WALL with all 4 wheels. ALL OTHER LINES ON ENTRY CAN BE DISREGARDED
    PIT EXIT : You are required to use the pit exit lane, Penalties will be adjudicated in similar fashion to Pit Entry. You should be to the left of the solid White pit exit line. ENSURE YOU DO NOT CUT THE LINE. Please be aware of cars approaching down the straight.
    NOTE: Pitting is NOT COMPULSORY

    (the BANG LAP at the bottom of this briefing has a pitstop shown at the end)

    BLUE FLAGS : Please observe blue flags, and move out of the way of faster cars if you are being lapped. Failure to observe blue flags WILL result in a penalty

    STEWARDS GROUP AND RACE PROTESTS : This season the steward will be @Hatfield. If you have reason to protest, please SAVE YOUR REPLAY, and then let him know via a PM.
    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. Stewards 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!

    PARKING UP : If you are unable to continue to race, please enter the pits and leave your game paused without selecting tyres (or no tyres) so that your car stays parked in the pits. Parking up off track activates yellow flags in the sector, and even though penalties are off, we have reports of penalties occurring for passes happening near the parked car.

    FINAL NOTE: Could all drivers please confirm their attendance for this Sunday by 'liking' this post in your division. If you are unable to attend, please post in reply as much in your division. This way we can figure out our reserves or if the room can start early in advance.
    (ALSO IF YOU KNOW YOU CANNOT ATTEND, PLEASE POST SAYING SO, SO THAT RESERVES CAN BE ORGANISED IN ADVANCE)
    If you do not post in your room thread or psn chat that you cannot attend, a spot may not be held for you for the following weeks race

    Just watch what happened to me going through the esses on the first couple races and you'll see why it's not a good idea.

    Congratulations @emmo46
    Just too good on tyres for me to keep up in the end.
    Well deserved.
