the natives are getting restless.

by Guest Sun 7 Mar 2010 - 23:32

Sorry woodwiss, it seemed like you were blaming us for it.

Its just one of those things. I hope you can get it sorted for the next meeting as you showed some awesome pace in qually!

One of his handles is 'icedynamite', if that helps...

Yeah it is.

Sorry I'm so upset. It's just that I spent all week with my team working on the setup and getting my laptimes down to a competitive pace, and then getting a time good enough to get into Lobby A in my first full TORA event. And then all this happens. You've no idea how frustrated and upset it's made me feel. Crying or Very sad

I know how you feel mate, try lagging out towards the end of a 1.5 hour race you are leading by over 1 minute!

Well, for only my second TORA meeting I think I'm pretty pleased. While I wasn't scaring anyone with my speed it was an event where I worked on the tune myself so I'm proud that it was at least drivable. Had a best lap in the 1:52s albeit dirty which is faster than my tuning and qually times. Managed to not hit anyone and actually raced a few laps with CK. The low spot was when my M$ wheel exhibited its quality by hitting the start (ie pause) button for me in the middle of race 1 which caused a date with the wall and subsequent pitstop. Great fun though. Thanks guys!

Nice one Av8rTim, that's the racing spirit. I could learn a thing or two from your attitude alone.

I am getting sick and tired of sniping and needling, all these stupid digs. If you ain't happy, Nicky, go. You won't be missed.

Oh wait, then where would you make hundreds of useless pointless posts? Where would you make plans to enter championships you'll never turn up at?

And don't bother replying if all you're gonna say is 'you guys crack me up,' that defence mechanism is wearing pitifully thin.

So Glad that race was over, the M6 was a tank on roller skates lol.

Well done to every 1 in my lobby was great 2nd race.

by Y22 DJH Mon 8 Mar 2010 - 9:33

well how wrong i was, the cars were all actually really balanced at this meeting.
What a teriffic start in race 1 in lobby B, how no one crashed into anyone is a miracle, and the whole race was one of the most enjoyable ive had for a while. Thr three way battle me, Louis and Crisis had for 2nd place was pretty epic for a good 7 or 8 laps.
Getting bumped up to the A lobby for the last race was a nice surprise.
It was a shame that someone tagged me from behind on the first corner and cause me to hit a couple of others.
But the accident later on let me back in, and i was running in 3rd for a while, but Switch was too fast and i let him go.
Overall im happy with 4th in that race, and that meeting has put our team right back in the mix

Yeah from behind it looked like he was hitting that TRDC pipe pretty hard. Despite how nailed his engine was I couldn't get near until there was a decent straight.
Great racing from AJ last night especially avoiding my flailing TVR on a few occasions.

by **Richy59** Mon 8 Mar 2010 - 10:10

Gutted I missed this, its my fav track in FM3 Sad

And I think I have to miss the next round which is rather annoying Mad

Field looks a bit closer now than what it was in the first round

at the start, the AWD ferocity of his lamborghini stunned britracer to the point that he initiated some contact right off of the start with me, i had front right brake damage and lots of aero damage...and was put far back in 5th out of 6th...i managed to pass scoobymeister when he made a mistake in the last corner, and then i chased down deathsendhippy and we had an epic battle for a good number of laps, where he was just putting that ferrari exactly where he needed to put it in corners to not let me by and he would just pull on the long straight...then he made a at the last corner (sticky sand) and i managed to get by him.

now there was maybe 700-800 feet between me and SABR sinister with what 6-7 laps left? managed to chase him down, and he got scared of the TVR and he had a big moment on lap 17...i managed to pull 2nd in the lobby...

2nd race was pretty good too...nightrider and his james bond smokescreen effect viper was a bit of a problem to get by...

Yeah that was a good battle, just over cooked it on that bloody grass Crying or Very sad

by **LMR DarthMario** Mon 8 Mar 2010 - 14:35

yeah Y22. i saved both lobby replays and saw you had more body damage than i did, so it may have been the reason i caught up to you so quick after the 2nd 'Safety Car' period in the A lobby. what im dissapointed about is that i ran out of laps, and i knew i was catching Louis. Laughing

man, if it was only 18 laps and not 15.

i got both Race 1 B-lobby and Race 2 A-lobby on my storefront

by **CQR Aero** Mon 8 Mar 2010 - 15:25

Race 1 and 2 from A lobby are on mine. Wink

I hope that it was switched to RWD and you are just commenting on how it is still like an AWD car at the start...otherwise its an illegal car.
