What? How can you have a race without ferrari?

 

[Paul Wijnen]

Yes someone should take my car, and win!..

 

[David Kaye]

I have a spare F1 Ferrari if anybody want's one, only had one owner, old lady who drove it 3 yard's once 'Honest' really good condition, no that is not a black puddle of oil its erm a...a shadow, no that is not the smell of pee, it is new car smell, really cheap almost giving it away for free, oh erm I am lol.

 

[James Chant]

No, we are not starting the championship as such yet. We are doing the wednesday night as a regular thing, once everyone is happy with the assists settings. distances and general rules and procedures, we will make the championship happen.

wednesday's event was one of a few to test the water to make sure it will all run correctly.

I would like people who are interested to sign up here so that we can make the championship happen... once it's ready. Its not something we should rush, and it will take a little work to integrate with the rank / league system on RD site (to make it more official).

 

[Mark Spaeth]

Oh, so you rigged the race so that Paul couldn't win? Unless you somehow installed oil slicks, can't say FIA would approve either way.

Anyone running f1 or any simbin games through steam?

 

[David Kaye]

That would be good a button on the wheel you press and out come's a slick like Carmageddon lol, No I am not through steam !

 

[Mark Spaeth]

Wow, I remember playing carmageddon, except weren't you mainly hitting people in that? Granted I can't remember it that well.

 

[David Kaye]

Yes that was the point of the game ram em off the road, and judging by some online race's tonight it has been Carmageddon ONLINE ! shocking I have learnt to hang back on the first corner every one want's to be #1 first thinking that secure's them the race, how wrong they are 99% of the time tsk tsk ! ruin's it but hey organised and friendly is the way to go I am looking forward to this race, so I am going to get a little sleep now goodnight all !

 

[Mark Spaeth]

Oh shoot, I never looked at the track line up. I haven't really raced at any of these, so take it easy on me.:frown:

 

[Mark Spaeth]

Hey is everyone there? the Forum was down. David and I are ready.

 

[Erik Engman]

After some difficulties, yes.

 

[David Kaye]

Well RD site was down at 11:30 for me and a few other's. The server was made just only one showed ??? oh well better luck next time I suppose !

 

[Michael Wadsworth]

was on GFWL and never got invite??? was there from 11:50- now???? yep oh well

 

[Erik Engman]

Yeah, I noticed. Sorry about that, GFWL was acting up for me. =(

 

[David Kaye]

Well after a bumpy start it eventually got going lol. Thanks to everyone for the race's I enjoyed it a lot. Driving online is certainly different and I figure I need more practice. Well done to the winner's and the loser's (me) lol. I hope we can do it again sometime's.

Thank you all, Dave.

 

[Mark Spaeth]

Good racing everyone! It's a shame you all couldn't stay for the whole thing.

I probably should have told you guys that I'm not racing with a wheel currently...using an xbox 360 controller, so pardon any bumping that occurred in Race 1 and Race 2.

 

[Erik Engman]

Some bumping is to be expected, as long as it's not a Destruction Derby, it's no big deal. =) Was fun racing, shame I'm so bad at Monza and Suzuka, and at Marina Bay I got such a good start and I go make two rookie mistakes to ruin it.

 

[Mark Spaeth]

Someone needs to teach me how to launch at the start of the race. Also, does the braking line not work for you guys in certain areas of the track?

 

[David Kaye]

I do a lot of AI testing in GP mode and that feel's totally different to career mode but online all my brake point's were slightly different, much more challenging as you saw much to my detriment, I have not played online much at all so I hope I improve. All in all it was a good maiden voyage lol

Mark, for the start's try and keep your rev's just below when the red gear change line appears ! or in the red on the steering wheel's LED's. I use RDev LED's the official version, much better for it !

Well I will post again this week for another race next week I hope to see you guy's online some more.

Cheer's, Dave.

p.s Oh and sorry for the race distance mistake I loaded my online test session by mistake.

 

[Erik Engman]

Maybe 30% distance on, say, 2 tracks might be an idea? Figured since some of us struggled a bit on at least a few of the tracks, it might be easier to get into some rythm during the race if it's a little longer. Just a thought.

Oh and I had that irritating right rear puncture on Suzuka too! >=( Not even halfway through the first lap! Grr. =p
