When entering the track from the pits Stay off the racing line until you are up to speed, do not race on your out lap. let other drivers by.
on re-entering the track stay off the racing line until you are up to race speed

@Medilloni I take it you can read between the lines.

Having said that the C9 is

quick down the straights and with 3 of them you may want to consider it, but you spend half of the straight trying to slow the dang thing down. 100% boost baby, drive it like you stole it

 

[GEO147]

Yes please Joel. Not sure which car yet.

 

[Ronnie Böhme]

All in! all in!
I'll have to do some laps to decide which car, though.

Lets just say...


A lot

 

[Craig Dunkley]

@Bobby Pennington ..you can't drive your fat 650s in this event

 

[SideEffectMKD]

In for me. Timotej Andonovski, will decide on a car later on.

 

[Bobby Pennington]

@Bobby Pennington ..you can't drive your fat 650s in this event

Shhhhh. She's going to hear you and since Joel called her Lorena in the other thread she's gonna be pissed at me and I don't want what happened to her first husband to happen to me If she finds out about the "fat" comment, I'm doomed for sure.

 

[dhmotor]

Please add me to the line up. Short Tail. Are we limited to Kunos skins or can we post the link to RD mod skins to make sure everyone has the selected version?

Has to be a stock skin. I ran races for a little over a year and a half here at RD and it's just way to much work for a race organizer to try and get everyone the skin they want. I wish there were a different way. I know you can do this on another popular site, but that is their technology and we can't step on toes. I hope you understand. Glad you'll be racing with us.

 

[Medilloni]

Car choice is 962 Short Tail please @JoelK , tried them tonight and this is the only one I hope to last an hour with

Tried the C9, **** me, I thought it was quick, then found I was on 50% boost ffs

I know we can't mention 'the lap time' thing but being totally new to these beasts, if someone could point me to a url, a source, anything, to aim for I'd really appreciate it - have found a couple of Youtube vid's but they don't look representative Damn this 'hurty people' rule

 

[GEO147]

Sounds like it could be a lot of work and require a fair bit of practice.

Sounds great actually

 

[Craig Dunkley]

It was a great race last time, must be 12 months now, I believe Jeremy (left long ago) won the battle ...sorry John I can not remember the lap times ..maybe Joel will be able to help you

Maybe I will get my knuckles wrapped? but I see nothing wrong with a time from/to example ..1.45.xxx - 1.56.xxx ...as long as the last figures are high enough to account for new drivers

I just sent you a PM John and it's a link to the race @Craig Dunkley is talking about.

Well in light of that, put me down for a 787B. It's the only car where I still have a Kunos skin - I think "Racing 55"? I have never done much in this car, so a new experience will be good. Also a nice LCD display....
