If there is space I would like to qualify! And if the spaces fill up and someone NEEDS to qualify (as in their team has no set times at all) I wouldn't mind giving up my spot for them. Thanks!

What's done is done Trash - it wasn't only that and it wasn't only you.......half the lobby decided to have an open conversation about how many dirty laps they'd had, whilst the other half were trying to get a decent lap in.

What was most disappointing was that there was no effort made to keep people quiet until I dirtied my lap and pulled over.

Hopefully race chatter is kept to a minimum. If not I'll cut the volume on my mic there as well. We need to hear people calling out passes and not what you ate for breakfast.

I just want to say that this 45 min rule is a bit unfair because not everyone gets the same amount of laps.

In sp3 class you should easly do 5 laps within the 45 min, but because i had to wait for more then a minute at the start i came 2/3 seconds sort of completing that 5th lap.

Maybe this is something to consider for next time.

This time I just missed the boot it seems and not by much...

by **CQR Rogue** Fri 7 Dec 2012 - 21:48

sorry no every lobby has ran so far stopped at 45 min!! so yes maybe next time thanks for feedback but know 1 has gone 45 min fin lap you are on

TMG Sarrazin 8x wrote:I just want to have a rule clarified for me please.

I pretty much wasted every lap of my qualifying making mistakes and constantly giving myself uncertified laps, except for my last lap. With about a minute and a half to go I asked if I'm allowed to finish the lap I'm on, someone said I have to stop where I am on the track at exactly 45 minutes. To make sure that was actually the rules I asked the lobby host who said the same thing.

Since I've left the lobby I've went and searched the rules and regulations thread and the qualifying procedure thread and I've so far only seen I had 45 minutes to qualifying, but I haven't seen anywhere that says I have to stop where I am on the track.

So, I'm left wondering was I actually capable of finishing that lap I was on? Because if I was, and I'd kept it clean I'd have shaven off 10 seconds at the very least.

Formula 1 drivers don't suddenly stop on the track when the timers reach 00:00 (in this case, when the timer reaches 45:00), so how come I couldn't have finished my lap? :/

Every Endurance race we have ever ran Q stops when times reaches set time, all lobbies have operated to this week no differences nothing

Also all please respect drivers (chatter) is not welcome always

I just phoned BT about my internet and found out the problem . They said that some power lines have come down and they have been getting complaints all day.

They said that is why my connection keeps dropping out. They also said that it will probably NOT be fixed until tomorrow sometime so i probably will not beable to qualify,but i will join and try anyway.

Also for the race i may be changing stints if it does not get fixed in time for 4pm.

I will phone them again tomorrow at 1pm, then i will find out if they have fixed it.

Yeah Takumi and I would switch but I really don't want to be up and starting the race at 7am my time. A sleepy two hour stint probably wouldn't go over very well. I'd probably be better off if I stayed up all night than trying to wake up and get moving around.

Plenty of coffee Worm you will be ok, Hilarious

I'm racing from 6am - 10am my time......Hamilton could only do the last two stints. Sad

I lagged out of the friday USA qualifing. I was not alone at least 5 or 6 of us did. I finished the stint and I have attached the picture of the time as proof that I had a clean time of 8:58.168 I don't feel that it is fair that I have to start from the pit and hereby request that stewart check this photo against the list of entrants and insert this time for my qualifing time
