Some media from A lobby race 2 - there's 9 laps of battling and 5 changes for the lead between 3 drivers, FWD vs RWD... here's a little teaser clip...



Lap 8: Door mirrors rubbing into turn 1




Lap 9: Same again, MAGiC on the outside this time


Lap 9: Still side-by-side exiting turn 3

Some images for your perusal. Enjoy... or hate, depending on your mood.

D Lobby, hosted by sbiggs. Race 2.


Thirteen into one does go, as we all just about made it through the first turn safely... I think.


The sight and sound of locked brakes was a regular occurrence down at the La Caixa Hairpin. Here's Urban in a Subaru Renault sandwich.


The difference in speed of the FWD's to the RWD's through the last part of the lap made for some close racing.


The mid-field battle seems endless. Here we see aggerdo fending off Urban.


The lobby host, sbiggs, doing his best to keep pace with one of the Prostar Scooby's.


At the front, I had been leading, until Fatal Peanut (BMW 1M) pulled the perfect pass down into turn one. I made an attempt to regain the lead at La Caixa, with little success; leaving me to fend off Jabber (Volvo S60) and my team mate ID (in the other Vimto Lexus)

The reverse grid races are nigh-on always interesting... messy. And this was no exception, kicking off right away at turn one. Squeeaaal, bump, bash, "oooopppss, sorry" "siiiiiiggggghh" Not the best possible start.


This isn't the formation lap! This is the actual race. Going two by two into the last chicane isn't always advisable, but everyone seemed to come out the other side okay.


I have to say, I love the addition of the front teeth to totlxtc's Megane. They look great.


sbiggs and CRA Urban, with Cobra and Jabber in the background.


As I was saying, race 3 is always close. This is lap 5 or 6, and 2nd to 13th place are all in the same shot.


I had to include a shot of Jabber's Volvo. I think it looks awesome.


My rear bumper must have tasted real nice, because on a good few occasions Magic was having a good munch coming out of the chicane and through the last bend.


At the front, pikeysmurf had led nine of the eleven laps in his Subaru, until lap ten, when he was passed by totlxtc's Megane into turn one.

There's a least 5cm gap there.  

Nope. That's touching. Just Forza physics failing yet again, with it's invisible force field that surrounds the car.

Yes, fully take blame for that one. I was focused more on the car I was next to and not the corner, to which out braking occured.  

Loving the pics as Always Dan, although I am seeing a TON of purple for one lobby haha... i'm thirsty  

some photos from the E Lobby, in particular the contact that ruined both race 1 and 2

I spy a Bora, someone has some free DLC to download
also.....

Megane Drifting!!!

Not downloading the free car will cause trouble no end

Looks like the bora is going for a diagonal start, thought you had to start straight? Can someone confirm this?

Must be the diesel version with mega torque steering problems so you need to launch it at an angle

Not just a Bora either, Although the Bora is almost 45degrees

No worries. Wasn't really pointing blame. My fellow club member took it well. He's off on holiday next week so said it won't worry him at all.

Thanks Chris. Yeah, it just so happened that there were 5 Pixel Motorsport members in the same lobby. Add to that sbiggs' Beemer and you do have a ton of purple. Some of the other guys in the lobby commented on the amount of thirst provoking Vimto on show too.

Seen this at a glance & couldn't stop laughing at how much it looks like the driver of that BMW is attempting the corner in reverse!
