Damn, bad luck Flood. Did some more practice today, at least I can break into the 13's now...lol... followed by a 24, then an 18.. etc etc
Sorry to hear Flood. Been great fun racing with you this season thanks mate. Is everyone happy with the normal starting time this week?
I'm easy Gary, I work arvo shift now, no early mornings for me. Happy to start earlier if everyone else does.
I reckon we stick with normal time, everyone knows it etc. Just a question, we are leaving the race as is yeah? Everything on normal and it requires 1 stop for fuel? We haven't changed anything like tyre/ fuel depletion to fast or anything?
Correct Bernsy, Race Hards for the whole race and just need to top up with fuel. Everything as normal.
The shadows get a bit of a pain near the end of the race, but that's like our V8 Supercar race. I had progression set at 1 last night, was much better on my eyes.
I noticed at Bathurst when testing with razor, after around 14:00, if you can get some cloud cover, the frame rate improves dramatically. The only problem with that is, you need to put weather changebility on, which risks the race being affected by rain.
I set up a room as normal on Friday, and had full cloud coverage?? Yesterday, it was full sun and blue skies.
Thanks Gary. I'm setting up now, my family has disconnected everything from the internet except the PS3, now trying to stay calm and relaxed before the start.
Well, I finally made it onto the podium. Got a great start when Bernsy seemed to bog down and took off. Well, I lasted until the end of lap 5 before I screwed it up this time, but too much loud pedal coming onto the front straight saw me facing the wrong direction, but I gathered it up and held second spot for a while. After the pit stops, I was third and stayed that way to the end. Finishing positions (pending review) and Fastest laps...
Hopefully the results will be finalised tonight guys, bear with us. As I was watching the replay today, thought I'd take a look at when people got their fastest laps... quite a big spread. Andrew - Lap 5 Ad2mny - Lap 13 S_Close - Lap 16 Hosie - Lap 17 Stumbles - Lap 19 Razor - Lap 21 Gary - Lap 24 Evilmoon - Lap 29 Bernsy - Lap 30. (Well done, no drafting and worn tyres). And after the pit-stop, I managed a 13.662 on the glitch tyres, so not heaps of pace lost with them... 1.3 seconds slower than my good tyres.
Results of the final race stand, congrats to Bernsy on taking out the Championship. Enjoy your time in Div 2 next season Bernsy, I'm sure you'll do well up there. Forgot to mention in the fastest laps post, Bernsy had Pole as well - 2.12.4xx
YES YES YES AND YES AGAIN! Thank you guys for an awesome season! Great racing and have made some good friends. Thanks to CARN for finding me on GTPlanet, thanks to all the mods for putting the hard work in to have everything run smoothly(even if the game isn't as smooth as us right now) and I look forward to seeing you guys on the track next season!
Congrats Bernsy. You really drove well on Sunday and brilliantly throughout the season. You deserved the championship after a great season. It was all down to the final race, and you were the better driver. Thankyou for those intense battles we had, there were a lot of them. I could not be happier with my season results. A second place in my rookie season, starting 2 rounds late and winning my first race.. Feels pretty special. Thanks to everyone for an epic season. Hopefully next season lives up to the standard of S1!
