OnPole Racing

OnPole Racing will be leaving TORA and moving to participate in championships held on Virtual Motorsports for the foreseeable future as myself and the team feel it is in our best interests to race there. I thank all the TORA staff for there hard work and effort in organizing some amazing series and for sharing and promoting them. The future is bright for online sim racing series.

Thank You

Myles

Somehow it’s been 3 months since the start of the year already, this is clearly evident that aliens are manipulating time as it's passing way too quickly. Anyhow Forza 5 is suiting me and my teams driving style and in the Spec cup we're already picking up podiums consistently it's first overall pole position at Leguna Seca and overall win at Sebring. err that’s about it for racing news, I've got Big Stuff going on with Uni and trying to raise thousands of pounds to try and kick start my racing career, in addition I've accidently become involved in Project CARS with Ginetta in requesting teams and...

The end of the season already, that went by quickly! It was a very hit and miss season as we missed several races due to important commitments and sadly failed our target to get into lobby A although we did get very close on several occasions but the competition was so tight a tenth of a second could move you about 5 places up the leader board and we just were not lucky enough. We never really got the car sorted out even with assistance with setup we could rarely push the car to the max and when we could we still didn't have out right pace. Thank you to the TORA staff involved with this as everything...

OnPole Racing will enter 4 BMW 1M's for the coming season with 2 teams of 2, having missed the previous season with issues with reliability and a unsatisfactory car leading to a full withdraw. Having made steps forward in setups the cars are in there final stages of preparation and will be shown in full livery at the official test.

OnPole racing is currently looking for a GTE driver to alongside Demo to drive their BMW M3 GT2.

In the previous round of the ISCC at Road America, qualifying saw the OnPole beamer take 2nd place on the grid, but a disconnect halfway through produced a disappointing result for us. Obviously the OnPole beamer has the pace to be fighting at the front, and we are looking for a competitive driver to join Demo in the top 10 drivers.

For anyone wishing to join the team, please feel free to send either Myles Prower or myself a message on TORA or Xbox Live.

Qualifying went well as it is usually my weak point most of the time being only 0.2 of a second off lobby A, the start also went well and I was able to break away from the chasing LMPC cars, changes were made to the car before the race to try to improve pace and they did work on the smooth sections of the track but on the concrete sections through turn 17 and 1 the car was uncontrollable bouncing wildly which lost what I reckon about half a second a lap and eventually lead to me hitting the wall and damaging the brakes and suspension forcing me to make my mandatory pitstop, I lost the lead of LMPC...

First ISCC test was was deemed successful with both GTE and LMPC cars running consistantly fast lap times confirming that our tuning is working well after fixing issues with damping and brakes so we can be competitive from the go, in addition a tuning collaboration with Team Ryal was set up and I hope our outsourced tuning will be highly recomended. In addition OnPole Raing will be carried over and continue in Forza 5 with the new generation Xbox Console as we intend to continue our participation in TORA, the current driver line up will be retained with the prospect of a new rookie driver to develop...

Okay ISCC entry in, thank you Demo because I was busy and we may have had no entry at all for the GTE class, we are still looking for drivers so contact me if your interested, we may have a top class leader board topping driver coming in for LMPC space but it depends on his availability and my charm. Also the final round of the SPEC club in the VW's is this Wednesday with 2 cars going for gold hopeing to end with a bang and not careering off the cliff at Camino Viejo and replicating the ending of the Italian Job.

Driven by OnPole Racing driver Demo Marksman, the previous 2 rounds at Hockenheim and Mugello saw the OnPole car take a pair of 5th positions fighting off tough opposition from rival Audi R8 Cup Driver Big Hamish.

Hockenheim featured an aggressive drive from the OnPole car from 8th on the grid and a monumental 29 lap battle with Big Hamish until finally making the move stick after a close fought battle for 5th. Credit to Big Hamish for his clean driving his ability to drive consistently under pressure.

Mugello was the first round of the season to feature a 'super pole lap'...

The Audi R8 Cup plays host to a lone OnPole Racing entry featuring a rather fetching purple livery.

Well we got our own little section now which is brilliant. Onpole Racing started off in Race Driver GRID after taking a likeing to the sponsor "Onpole.com" and has progressed into competitive online racing, we take things seriously and aim to bring out the best of the car and driver. We will support anyone in our team with top tunes to suit them in addition to developing their technique and driving style, we aim to be fighting at the front.
