TORA GT S9 - General Discussion

Any chance of sneaking into the last lobby?

Sorry all Simon Lobby Host issue for B lobby have to run that now.

Posting here because sign up thread is locked, I'm now OUT. Sorry, but I have to be up early tomorrow

FFUUCC*K!!!!!!!!!!
i missed it!!!!
was so looking forward to it
hope it all went well

I need a new Corvette Most of it is still in the wall :/

What a mess in race 2 lobby B....
The 3rd restart I got hit in the warm up lap.
The 4th restart I got him from the side in the slow section.
I stepped out, car was wrecked.( and I am furious...)

Why do people insist on driving back onto the racing line after going OFF THE TRACK, forcing the cars still on the track to slam on their brakes to avoid them...

Sorry for the touch that finished you off Rusty, I thought you saw me coming and left room as you were so slow, then you moved over and I had no where left to go, again sorry.

I did... That's how I ended up at the back.

Feeling your pain Adder - the driving from some people in B Lobby was horrendous!! The same person caused numerous incidents by returning to the track without any consideration for others. There's no point raising a SI with one round to go and my evening already ruined

Big respect to Twisted who I had a good battle with in the 1st race and showed great respect in Race 2 by NOT trying to force passes in the first quarter of the lap - there are some people that would do well to take note

Thank god there are no reverse grids in Season 10

warm up section from start line till pits....
After that its go but I was already hit before the pits entrance.....

Slow? The Vettes got no Acceleration and to try and pass in that place was a wee bit silly, Problem ive got is i race cockpit so i had no idea you were their, especially with the track flicking left right left right and me driving in a straight line so to end up in a wall was a bit of a shock

Im not saying anything untill i see it back on the replay though.

I am certainly glad my teammates did well and scored a lot of teampoints!

Foot, YOUR FIRST PODIUM IN A after 2 races!!!!!fantastic.

Racert Your first A lobby race, brilliant!!

Unfortunately there are forces who doesn't get me in A lobby....

But I am very happy with the result in this race, despite the sh!t I had....

To be 100% honest Adder the first 8 cars in Race 2 were their own worst enemy - everyone bunched up so close together that some contact was inevitable, especially in such a tight part of the track. The 3 of us at the back never really had a problem as gave each other plenty of space

im really pissed that I lagged out of both qualy sessions. I did a conservative 7:38.91x clean during the race in D lobby, won both races in D when starting at the back.

The first race, I actually managed to smack the wall at 130mph at a 45 since I hit the curb and went on two wheels on the first lap. I only incurred (miraculously) 13% side damage only.

I won the first round by ~600ft after all that and then won the 2nd by at least 1500ft.

I should have been in A lobby

not my weekend at all

I will be the first to say if I have done something wrong but this time I just got hit in the back/side twice.

who???

Great racing in Lobby C very close and clean (Majority)
Nice racing with Blue and Tozic tenth and a half covering all 3 of us. That should be good pictures.
Sorry for the bad hosting and terrible jokes.

May I add you are not talking about me? As I was trying stay back as well!

Again I can only say sorry, I had such a great run on you I thought you must have been damaged already and the line I took it looked like you we're giving me the line. If you feel aggrieved feel Free to put in a stewards, it would be my fault for trying to pass there, I honestly thought I had the line.

Greatly enjoyed the racing tonight. I love this track and the races with this community. Had a good battle with TPR box, tooks longer than expected, but at the end no chance to keep up with this guy.

@FranchittiFan: sorry mate, there was no way to avoid the collision in the caroussel.

A lot of people trying to push past at the Ring... I think we can all agree that that's not the thing to do. I felt a few knocks on my rear, one in particular was (I think) Outlaw in the final section... Made up for it though with the super close finish

I found that the corvette seems to handle differently on 2 wheels

Meanwhile
race 1: pretty good
race 2: awful! half the field caught up in a crash within a few corners which could have been avoided had people not pulled on straight in front of others after going off! and it also seems like nobody gives anyone any room or even checks around them! people really need to be more courteous.

Most definitely not Rogue - I could see you were doing as much as you could, my comment was aimed at the front pack in general. There must only have been a couple of hundred feet between 1st and 8th!

lol I know gutted was really looking forward to this as well Congrats to winners and well done to all those that drive fast and clean

i also got hit in the back twice by the same car. i would like to say right now that to certain people that IF YOUR ON SOMEONES TAIL MAKE SURE NOT TO NOT HIT THEM if you cant do that then back off and wait till the right time till pass. at least i got a third place finish
