3 Lobbys tonight!? Nice! So far my best is a 1.01.8xx but running consistent at about 1.02.1xx/2xx in the Focus ST!

by **Richy59** Tue 30 Aug 2011 - 18:35

I should really start testing...

by **Richy59** Tue 30 Aug 2011 - 20:19

Sorry for the delay, we're having connection issues in one of the lobbys.

by johnnyboy360 Tue 30 Aug 2011 - 20:20

I was NOT expecting THAT! A 1.01.594!? Even with only spending about an hour with the car!

by VVV GunDaM Tue 30 Aug 2011 - 21:03

First race didnt go so well.

Hoping for better. Still utterly enjoying it though

by **Richy59** Tue 30 Aug 2011 - 21:53

Well. That was pretty incredible.

Glad to have had two wins tonight, but I'm absolutely appawled by the driving standards in the touring cars. It's not acceptable because nearly everyone's temper was on edge. The drivers need to buck their ideas up otherwise I'm not competing in a dirty championship. I'm sure I'm not the only one who feels angry about the racing in A lobby tonight.

by nickyf1 Tue 30 Aug 2011 - 22:00

Once again, the racing was just faaantastic!

Congratulations to our winners Dan and Ruairidh, and the first win for the VW! Very Happy

Great racing with Dan, Ian, Duncan, Ruairidh, and.. almost good racing with Chad Wink

Dan, this is just the nature of touring cars. The cars in A lobby were pretty much identical on pace.

Pack racing with long straights and hard braking zones leads to contact, its not ''dirty''.

Sure, we get fired up during the race, but looking back, everything was fine. Hell, Ian pretty much used his nose to try and get a place back in race 1, but that is completely acceptable. Thats using a little rub to get ahead of an identically paced car. There is a difference between that, and taking someone out on purpose, and we didn't have any of that, thankfully.

by **Richy59** Tue 30 Aug 2011 - 22:05

None of our cars came out of those races unscathed. In race 2 there was 7 of us in a pack all race bumping each other on the straights, bumping each otehr in braking zones etc etc and at the end of it all we could say was "wow, that was brilliant"

Hmm. In all honesty Dan, everyone else has been mainly raving about the racing so far, from A lobby too. There are a few incidents to have a look at, but nothing major.

If you have a particular issue, then please PM the stewards for us to look at.

by **ATR DAN** Tue 30 Aug 2011 - 22:07

Who do I need to inform about any incidents Scot?

I've forgot to congratulate SilentAlarm on his win in the 3rd race. Well done matey! cheers

by VVV GunDaM Tue 30 Aug 2011 - 22:08

Best. Racing. EVER!

Seriously, Im overjoyed.

by **ckBrenneke** Tue 30 Aug 2011 - 22:09

Me for a start. Put the replays on the storefront, then tell me what and where.

I'll P.M you in a bit with the details.

Race 1 down the National Straight.. The most epic moment of the season.
- Ian and Dan nose to tail
- Me and Chad side by side behind closing in on Ian and Dan
- Chad goes right, I go left
- Three wide into Brooklands, almost four wide now...
- We ALL make it through Brooklands!

by Ax4x Kane Tue 30 Aug 2011 - 22:15

Oh wow, just wow! I SO HOPE this championship carries over to Forza 4! What A Race! There may have been 1 or 2 comings together (sorry if I caused anything!) I even landed my best result - 3rd in the B lobby! Replay for Race 2 is on my SF will upload Race 3 tomorrow, I forgot to save Race 1 Replay. Thank you TORA for this amazing championship!

Oh and if anyone wants the 'TCC ON TORA' decal (based on the BTCC ON ITV4 decal) featured on the bumpers of me & Jamie's car it's also on my Storefront, or message me if you want it gifted. THANK YOU ONCE AGAIN Very Happy

by **ATR DAN** Tue 30 Aug 2011 - 22:16

I must admit Nicky, that was the only positive highlight of the race meeting. That was epic.
