TORA Avon Tyres British GT Championship: General Discussion

BG Wingnut396 wrote:go ahead knock yourself out but if i remember rightly you have to submit within the first 24 hrs and if you havent submitted then i do believe it maybe be a little late

its 36 hours from when the race finished to submit an SI

right the track didn't help in lobby 9 the GT4 cars stayed on the racing line as directed and was still difficult as the track is very tight.

Let forget this now and moved on to the next track

I will own up to one thing when a group of us caught I believe it was Diablo going into T2. We kind of barged in, in the heat of the battle and he was very smart and considerate to move out of the way to let us through. Want to thank you for that and apologize for how that played out. Other than that, nothing to apologize for.

I really don't know why people who weren't even in the race are arguing and adding to the heated discussion. Just adds more fuel to the fire with unnecessary opinions. I agree with the GT4's staying on the racing line BUT, in certain situations last night during the race I would move over so the GT3 cars would pass by more comfortably. It helps cause less accidents giving them more room to maneuver around. I don't understand why people like to place their cars smack in the middle of the track for absolutely no reason making it harder for faster cars to maneuver around, and increasing the chances of an accident

@Collin

I saw you all coming and did the best I could. Between lag and 4 cars in a turn, I'd rather give way.

Holy crap look it was the first race on a new game with new guys we are all going to take time to get to know the game online so let's stop moaning an bitchig about it an look forward to round two ...round one was a learning curve. now people know how it works round two should hopefully run smoother...

Completely agree with this.  For me it was the first time for joining you guys and taking part in an online race so I was bound to make mistakes.  As with all things like this I'm sure we all appreciate that there are going to be some die hard fans and it can be frustrating when newbies come onboard but there can sometimes be thin line between them staying for another race or thinking sod it I'm off

I agree and i would hope that the veteran teams at tora would help the new guys i know us at benedict racing will be and have already offered

To be completely honest, the new guys are always gonna moan here and there, there coming over to a Competitive Site, i was exactly the same i jumped in TCC, and totally misread how competitive this can be, you all have to just have to get used to how it is at TORA, and Like Hunty said, the Veteran Teams such as Benedict Racing, LMR, HCR , CQR, Ax4x and many many more, i bet they are willing to help, but not when ur gonna moan at them just for been competitive and not wanting to lose time on there Competitors.

Just wanted to extend my thanks to everyone who took part on last week.
It had the potential to be extremely stressful for all concerned but it all went fantastically for the most part and I hope to see a great many of you back for Round 2 at Zolder!

As regards 'newbies' the ethos here is that while there is the 'competitive edge' to our championships, everyone is able to help everyone else and largely they do!

The only stupid question is the one that isn't asked

Yeeeeee do it man!

Here are my personal highlights from Oulton Park. Feel free to take it down if embedded videos aren't allowed. Also, this is my first attempt at a video like this, and I only gave the commentary one take. Advice is welcome. Enjoy!
