@Hatfield I've found a discrepancy with you table, you gave FL to fastboysmith instead of me, sorry Smithy.
Good luck tonight guys, Just a quick one, Be aware that if you go into the pits too fast with the accelerator flat to the floor you may not get the option screen to change tires. There is a line across the road that you will need to coast across and the option box will be shown. Make sure you test it out in practice so you understand how to attack it. Remember, Race soft tire in qual and first stint, you must run at least 1 stint on the medium tire after that. Cheers Stu
Another good season. Great way to finish it off, well almost. It was nearly an awesome finish to the season, but I ran out of talent on worn tyres at the end. What could have been??!! Well done to Warrior, another championship. Well done to Mint, first Div 1 win I believe, and consistency should see you second overall. I must say, that was one of the toughest seasons I've been in and surprisingly close. Mint nabbed pole Emmo, and N64 decided to not race, but ran low fuel hot laps to grab FL. Fastboy dropped out, so he gets last place and FL was 2:06.352.
Please disqualify me from the results, my lack of activity on the forums lately and ignorance has made me cheat, I started the race on Mediums in the hope of gaining an advantage, but it didn't matter anyway. Sorry Stu. My glitchy pedals in the first half were karma! Going to have a look and clean them tomorrow. Well done MINT on the victory, and Warrior for taking a 7th(?) season in a row? It's a truly insane run! It looked like a really awesome strategic battle, I can't wait to crack into the report tomorrow. It's been an extremely tough season for all of us, however I'm really looking forward to next season with a much more controllable car! Cheers, Jono.
wow what a race. Was having a solid run in my first stint keeping pace with the leaders until a spin in front of optimus. Got my self back together got these tyres up to lap 8 after destroying them in the spin, pitted put on the Meds for 2 stints to get myself to lap 28 where the aim from there was 2 stints on softs to the was going good until a family member decided to use a faulty clothes iron (which is known to be rooted ) and through out the RCD in the board (thanks mum!). was on for what could have been a 5th or 6th. Oh well bring on next season with a car with its engine in the right spot.
Congrats to @MINT_GTR for his first win of the season, and to @warrior2167 for the Championship! Way to end the season MINT on a high! Just need to keep that going into next season, which I am really looking forward to! I just wish I joined at the start of the season... What a terrible terrible race for me... Had a bad start and dropped two places into the first corner... Going into Eau Rouge I was pushed out wide and got a 3 second penalty, however somehow didn't loose any more spots... I was sitting behind Fastboy and Optimus with about a 2.5 second gap... After everything settled down, I started to get into rhythm... By lap 4 I started pulled in Fastboy and Optimus then they started having a good little scrap, I ended up getting past both of them in the first corner like they did to me! By this time the Mint, Warrior and Aanon had about a 8-10sec lead... I stayed in my rhythm, and was starting to pull them in towards the end of the first stint to about 5-6 seconds... Here is where it went Bad. Pitted on lap 10 sitting in 3rd place, however only to realize when I went to select Medium's I had NONE! I had them on my Prac McLaren, but not my race one... I should be DSQ because I didn't have medium's, only hard's.... Anyways I thought I would just go on and do a stint, sitting on 2:10's I started to get frustrated... After about 4 laps on these, I thought I would pit again for Soft's.. and it went even more bad... That stupid pit entry... you would think as soon you it crossed the line that it take care of itself, but no... I accepted Hard's again and full fuel... grrrr Now sitting in 10th... Leaving the pits with super frustration going up through Eau Rouge I clipped the in-side of the kerbing and the car got light, slid and did about 20 thousand spins (would look pretty cool on reply)... By this time I wanted to rage quit, however wanted points and knew I could at least try and claw my way back... So pitted once more for soft's and started putting in some good lap times... Kept up consistency and ended up finishing 5th... I am really looking forward to next season with you lads
It is being discussed out the back Emmo, will make a decision within 24 hours. Sorry that this will be holding things up, we will be able to put this season to bed at some stage...
Edit: Looks like the positions around N64 are close so I will wait for the official call If N64 loses his 2 points from this round, he misses out on being a team captain for S3!!
Jono if you didn't say nothing. And do F1 drivers always wear watches in there cars? You would think with all those displays on the steering wheel it would atleast have a clock. My falcon has 2
lol Well hey, I stuffed up, it wasn't until last night when I saw Stu's post I realised, or if I did I completely forgot. I recall the final race of S12 (also at Spa) where natman did something similar (started on sports softs where everyone was supposed to be on wets/inters) and he kept his 6th place.
