I'm with you, He knocked me on the first corner then again on the 4th all in the first lap. But anyway that aside, I saw you two on my radar (you had just lapped me) and at certain times could see you in the distance, he was racing you 100%.

 

[Dylan Hember]

I think its because the pitlane is soo close to the track on the other side.

 

[Bill Devery]

What a f#@!&$g disaster for me! Soz to everyone for delay...when u kick a power cord loose, u tend to lose connection..
Had to turn my computrr and internet off twice to get connected.
This shook me up and i had a terrible first half lap. Will post video later (havent seen video yet but i think i hit someone turn 5...maybe a williams...)

EDIT: I'm glad most off you had a good race! I'm gutted i couldn't join you :-((

 

[Ermanno Carofiglio]

well now may be I can say something?
For that episode with zomacher - it was rain and I was in spray, I didnt noticed that i touched u on turn 10, I know that u r talking about that corner because I remeber that I overtaked u after u ran off the track, if there WAS a contact - sorry, but i didnt noticed that.
To Italianred - I think there was no contacts with u from me in Spain, but u've made really bad thing to me before first pitstop and I think u remenber it.

it was on starting straight when I was trying to overtake u just by speed in the right side of the track, but u pushed me out, u didnt even tryed to stop it.. I drived for about 300 meters half on grass and overtaked u just because of my speed and setup, and after that u can even try to complain about me?.. Secondly - u say u just drove behind me whole race because u was afraid of me? that means that u could drive faster? i think not.. we had the same temp whole race and I lost this race just tackticaly, had 1 more lap on wets when it was already dry and had 2 mistakes on the pitlane with braking before box.

If u r trying to make something about me - do it if u want to, and I wont say anything because I wasnt unright in any moment, may be when it was a contact with Zomacher, if he say so, but I didnt see that contact.
About incident in turn 4 - wow... I think u have to look behind u much more, because If ur trying to complain about me after pushing me out in 4th turn - its unbeliveable...

Do what u think u have to do, and u think its right to do.. and no hard feelings. everybody drives as he want, if I drive in fast and "agressive" style - that doesnt mean that I drive rude.

I have no clue what your talking about,I never touched you at all,Like I said I had no problems with you In spain,because I was almost the whole race behind you ,I tried few times but we never had any contact.Try to understand what Im saying and dont blame me that people or complaining of you.
I said your a good driver but when you want to overtake people you think abit "arcade mode "
you need to be patient and wait your moment to overtake,mistake can happen ,even I admid I do mistakes,but I atleast say sorry when I ruin somones race.
You need to understand what we say on forum.
I dont care about winning my russian friend
try to understand what we say ok bye

 

[Peter Hooper]

Yeah sounds like a good explanation Dylan, all those AI cars in there sucking up resource. It's really a pain though.

 

[James Robertson]

Heres my edited highlights.

Right, im obviously missing a trick here,

I have spent a bit of time looking at Igors, Andrews and Steves vids and i have noticed that you guys seem to use full steering lock on a hell of a lot of the corners. When i look at my wheel position on similar corners its nowhere near full lock.

I used Viktors setup for this race which has a front wing angle of 11, i can only assume that you faster guys have developed a technique where you cope with the high understeer of low wing settings by constantly applying full steering lock.

It kind of looks as if the front wheels are scrubbing or sliding laterly a lot of the time in corners.

Any advice would be appreciated.

 

[Matthew Jenkins]

Early practice indeed Pete it's the only track I will race on all week as I have done with the lead upto the previous races. I haven't raced on this track for ages and I don't have the race line on any more, so alot to learn. I'm in the 1:24's at the min and I have noticed it stuttering as well. I have had cosmetic damage on just to help learn it. God knows how you do it with no assists. I'm up for a practice race midweek if ur interested?

 

[Paul Wise]

another good clean race chaps...anyway now that we have all been racing each other for a couple of mnths now forgive me if im out of line for asking these questions but it is evident that we all drive differently?so my question is......who drives with automatic g/b & who drives with manual & who drives with A WHEEL and who drives with the pad ?myself i drive with at the moment automatic gers as i dont feel that confident to go manual but i use a logitech driving force gt....i think it would be interesting to see what diiferent kinds of pherifials and driving styles people use

 

[Lee Cocker]

Jamie I didn't spin, I got hit by Nicholas when he ran wide then hit me coming back onto the track. That put me pretty much last and had to finish the lap on a damaged front wing then pit in. I then ran my heart out being 40 seconds down but had a few little spins, overtook nearly all the field throughout the race to get 2nd after Ollie crashed then ran out of petrol half way through the last lap lol good race tho guys

 

[Jamie-Lee Mayers]

thats the thing Lee i never even saw you after Ollie spun you (i think it was him that turned across you into T1 if i remember) i didnt even see you on the HUD, the only time i saw you pop up into third was when you crossed the line, until that point it was me, something wrong with the connection maybe im not sure and we still didnt get our on track fight lol.

on another note to answer Paul, i am currently using a wheel with auto gears as im not confident of using that either, was using a controller up until this weekend in terms of our championships, and incedently im still using TC cause i cant seem to get rid of my heavy right foot lool. id love to see other peoples setups in terms of how theyve set their equipment out lol

 

[Jack Evans]

Matt as your team mate ill be on most days and hopefully we can get your times down to the 1:15's and 16's i think i did last time i raced there

 

[Romain Langlois]

Hmm except on a few tracks I run with 1/1 aero.
I don't get "It kind of looks as if the front wheels are scrubbing or sliding laterly a lot of the time in corners."
If you use Viktor's setup I can't see much of an advice I can give, because he is Viktor.
But good idea to bring the setup discussion right here. Come on guys, ship your advices to daddy. :wink:

 

[Andrew Bortz]

Guys,points are not the most important, it's important to have full grid and good motivating racing

Andrew,I didn't understand u,what did u want to say,traction control on loool,never bro....in this video, I'm out of fuel and tried to use brake as little as possible cause you know how slow accelerates without fuel
BTW video and audio are not synchronized...and I was a abouth 20 FPS while frapsed

Lol dont panic im just jealous cos my car doesn't take corners.

 

[Derek Kind]

I didn't watch the whole video, but it looks like you had a good race for McLaren, James! What was the final result?

 

[Bill Devery]

A little bit of action...

 

[Mattuie Beckett]

Any chance there is any seats coming up any time soon.

Would love to race with you guys can only do week races.

 

[Jean-Francois Matte]

Damn I love that track...

 

[Stefan Woudenberg]

Nice vid Bill, when you had bumped my rear and saw you in the trap at the next corner I thought it was self punishment for bumping me Now I now you were pushed yourself.

As Spa is such a long track you have only 2 laps to do your drive thru penalty. When you entered the last sector it also said that you had to do the drivetrhu "this lap". Really too bad, you had to leave so soon. Hopefully a better run next time.

 

[Scott L. Harrison]

Apologies for my absence! I was walking around the Moors on Friday afternoon and come Saturday morning AGONY! My calf muscles were WRECKED, I tried to practice with an xbox controller, but it just dosent have the same feel! I will be there next week for sure

Thx Stefan,
After watching the video, i realized it said drivethru "this lap" but during the race live, that message came up right in the middle of the fast and treacherous right hander leading onto the flat out back section and you can't take your eye of the road otherwise you're off in a flash ! So i relied on my counting...
I think in actual fact, they gave me 3 laps...it's just that the "first lap" was 10 seconds long because i was just finishing it...i just didn't count that as 1 lap "completed".
Oh well, such a shame...Was so looking forward to a great race.
Dave and Firefly got bumped ???

EDIT: sorry about hitting you but when i came back on track from the grass you just appeared there going very very slow and my weary reflexes couldn't stop me from hitting you :-(
