    Great video's Anon.. though you didn't need to focus so much on my screw ups lol.

    The race 1 video showed the incidents I spoke about in my recap.. I am red 57 btw
    - Looking at that move I made on Stu at the top of the corkscrew, it doesn't look as bad as I thought at the time, even though I did ghost slightly. You can see him drive straight past me afterwards when I let him back in front.
    - The part where we went either side of Bonus looks awesome haha
    - And where I straightend Bonus up, I thought that was in the Challenger, but seems I was wrong.

    Maybe next week.

    @ Flood, I must have missed that bit where you straightened Bonus up?? I didn't mean to pick on you, but those red cars were in everything! Last lap of race 2 was awesome, Stu sideways missing Neishy by an inch!

    great vids Anon. Thanks for taking the time to put them up for us......

    I wonder if they can be put on the front page somewhere so visitors can see what we get up to? Could be a good promotional tool for the site and potential drivers.... Just a a thought.

    Geeze, we're all in the same boat. I just got home and haven't even looked at the cars yet.
    Not in a good mood, so will just bang on a basic tune and do the laps I think.
    Bloody windy here today, a branch broke on the tree I was parked under at mum's this arvo, nice dent in the roof now... Not Happy JAN!!!!

    Jeez last night what a Pain in the Arse, in Enforcers room for prac OK, in Anon's room OK, try to go to Stumbles room, got some stupid network incompatibility message and just refused to let me in, (which is odd because I'm sure I've been in there before, then very slowly got in to Bonus's room and could get in only to be disconnected from the server after a few minutes, so I gave up. I did reset router and clear system cache same as before every race I do and did it again when these problems arose but to no avail. Sorry if I held up proceedings.

    So I just ran the two races solo in my own room, if you want Anon you can use these times minus whatever deductions for traffic and incompetence etc (I wasn't blisteringly fast anyway) or you can just put me last, either way is cool. I was hoping that Flood and myself could put in a good showing and maybe nab third on the ladder after a poor start by yours truly.

    Race 1 time: 19:03.708 (pretty clean I think)

    Race 2 time: 22:36.663 (1 penalty and a small off)

    Anyway how did everything else go?, I saw everybody jumping off as I was doing my second race.

    Aside from the PSN cock ups its been a great series, thanks heaps for putting it on.

    Cheers

    Certainly was frustrating........not anyone's fault, just :):):):)full the way the system works sometimes......

    Had a fun night racing......Sorry to enforcer and my team mate rumbles who i caused a few problems for in the first race when i ran out of talent.....

    Thought i was going ok in the first race when i got into 1st with 3 laps to go, and about half my tires left, but the tire wear from then was diabolical and on lap 10 i had to pit, back to 7th, race over.

    Race 2 was interesting, pitted on lap 5 and had a good scrap with darko for the last 2 laps but my tires got the better of me, or darko was just plain faster and i finished 4th.... Specked up i thought the Z06 was a good thing, BUT THE BLOODY TIRES !! :lol::lol: With no testing didnt even give it a thought that they wouldnt last 11 laps, was interesting watching everyone slide around on them.....

    Thanks anon for the series, with the late start time i might be able to convince the handbrake to let me be a series starter next time round.....

    Thanks lads, but man that was rubbish last night. Was really disappointing not to have a proper, hard fought round to settle the places. It really wasn't fair on the guys driving around not being able to see everyone, plus Cob couldn't get in, laggy-glitchy cars, etc.... we should really have a do-over, but the whole thing has left such a bad taste in my mouth I don't think I could be bothered. Bloody PSN!!

    Nah it's all good Anon, really nothing to worry about. I had a shocker anyway.
    I ballsed it up in the second chicane and left you nowhere to go; you were good enough to hold back then and let me keep position.
    Then only 2 corners later in the second Lesmo I went around again, completely of my own doing, once again it was unavoidable.

    That's the worst I've ever seen the PSN/GT5 perform. Really really bad..
    Race 1 I copped a couple of pretty rude nudges that I will put down to people not being able to see me.
    Highlight of my night was breifly leading the first few laps of race 2. Definately one to forget though.

    Thanks for running the series Anon, it was a tricky one.

    And thanks to my teammate Cob, we would have taken 3rd in the series if it wasn't for the trouble you had... OR, if I had done a bit better in race 2 XD

    Sorry about the other night fellas. There was a storm brewing and I was getting some brownouts, which was ok...but then my TV turned itself off and I couldn't turn it back on again. I thought it was stuffed tbh. I didn't have the right mind to turn my PS3 off though, so sorry if my car got in the way of the racing.

    Definitely a night to forget. The PSN was absolute crap, and my racing wasn't much better. No testing until 20 mins before trying to join rooms, so I wasn't expecting much anyway...lol

    Congrats to the NOS boys, solid racing all series, worthy winners (how about letting us plebs have a bit of fun in the next series???.. lmao).

    I won't be joining any racing for a while, going to do the 24 hour endurance races so that will probably take about a week on each.


    Your car gave everyone a fright coming out of the last turn and onto the straight, but it was ghosting so no drama's Chev.

    Yeah CHev, think nothing of it. One lap I went past and you were 45 deg. to the wall, the next lap you were directly facing it, so on and so forth :)

    I wish I had driven more like I did in that last race for the previous 3 rounds :lol:
