[blackbird04217]

Whhooops! Been so busy with Real life things and the results on Event 2 that I totally forgot to open this up for confirmations and such!!

[tonyonparas]

Tony Lönnström will show up there (hopefully) :nod:
I´m not big fan of these "big" GTR:s, but at least we get to drive with the best of em. I like XRR the best, but this is the easiest drive.

So, does anyone dare to tell some numbers.:x My best flying lap so far is 1.11.xx. Not really done any standing laps yet..:schwitz:

[de Souza]

I tried some hotlapping yesterday and my best was a 1:09.0. I can do a 1:08, but it's bloody hard to drive this combo on the limit.

That or I just can't make setups. :D

[J@tko]

I will not be there. :(

Odd, because I thought that this didn't clash with the LFSBC, but turns out it does :(

[AMB]

Matthew Beattie will be there and with no connection problems this time.

:thumb:

[Kaw]

Kasper Johnsen is in!

[AMB]

1.11.xx. Not really done any standing laps yet..:schwitz:

Just done 5 offline laps, my fastest lap was 1:08.3, my online pb is 1:09.1.

[LFSn00b]

Niko Puntola will be in for sure

[AMB]

Right guys I just downloaded a set, i've changed the brakes, downforce and pressures, let me know what you think,

Be warned it's a handful

[AMB]

Replay and new set attached with crazy wings

1:08.7 this time, 3/6 downforce.

edit: new pb 1:08.1, with crazy df set, attached,

[blackbird04217]

Awesome, glad to hear people practicing and working on sets this time around. Hoping for another great event!

[Stefani24]

Stefan Alfons will be there.

[chanoman315]

if is this Saturday... ill be there
Donaciano Martinez ;)

[zeugnimod]

Does anyone have a set that isn't a handful? :D

[AMB]

yes try the first one i posted, sensible wings, was from team inferno, but i changed some things.

[zeugnimod]

yes try the first one i posted, sensible wings, was from team inferno, but i changed some things.

The one where you said "be warned, it's a handful"? :really: :D

[AMB]

lol yes that one, it's actually nothing compared to my 3/6 df set, the first one is fine, has 10 wing rear more than enough, now the 3/6 is a whole nother story....:schwitz:

[zeugnimod]

What a stupid car!!!

If I try to push just a bit, I spin. If I drive safe, I can't get below 1:12. :gnasher:

[blackbird04217]

What a stupid car!!!

If I try to push just a bit, I spin. If I drive safe, I can't get below 1:12. :gnasher:

Doing better than me! (1: 13: xx with 6 laps...) back when we tested the combos. However we had a tie and I knew it would be a good combo for the event. I still don't have my G25 back from logitech, almost 3 to 4 weeks since I sent it in, but apparently they are still on back order and I might get it Friday...

[jwardy]

EDIT better ask before looking like a noob what day is this lol?

[blackbird04217]

Today is Monday. The event will be on Saturday August 2nd

[Kaw]

DAMNIT!
I was doing a lap that was ½ second faster than wr on last split. But then I blew it and lost it all. But i am 0.08 from wr so far. Gonna get it tomorow!

[de Souza]

Does anyone have a set that isn't a handful? :D

I'm posting mine as well. It's not exacly easy (for me at least) but it's not as loose as AMB's. I managed a 1:08.8 today. :)

62607

[Martin.S]

I think I will miss this event as well. :( Seems to be a great combo. Good luck!

[tonyonparas]

Oh god, I have to self-quote myself again... :(

[evilpimp]

Taha El Alaoui will most likely miss it.

Man I hate this. I keep missing H2H :( I think I missed last SRcup race too. :(

Going to watch the NASCAR race @ montreal saturday so won't be there :S. (not oval, circuit gilles villeneuve)

It'll be my first time watching a race irl so...

[blackbird04217]

Well have some fun, gonna miss ya there but maybe if I get my G25 I will catch up to you in points.

[evilpimp]

Lol thanks. It can't be hard getting 0 points? :P

[blackbird04217]

LOL! I can't believe I had to look to see you had 0 points! Looks like I will rival you going into the final 2 rounds since you won't be here during this event. It's ok cause I probably won't have my wheel, but I certainly hope I do.

[evilpimp]

xD man sucks to miss these events. I hope I don't miss the last one at least. The legendary one. :P

[blackbird04217]

Yea, that one will be where I own you . . . :D So you can't miss it.

[Mischief007]

I won't be there. In the middle of a move and I won't have internet at the new place.

[BigTime]

Nolan Scott. :razz:

Thank you. :D

[Smurfen]

At least i will watch you guys (popcorn and cola ready).

[de Souza]

Oh that's a lot easier to write, no need to open the charmap. :D

But you typo'ed your first name didn't you? :tilt:

[Kid222]

But you typo'ed your first name didn't you? :tilt:
Nope, it's how i heard it in last broadcasting, as guys probably were not sure, how to spell it. But it sounded funny to me.:D

[Flame CZE]

Nope, it's how i heard it in last broadcasting, as guys probably were not sure, how to spell it. But it sounded funny to me.:D
But correctly it sounds like Zdenyek :)

[Kid222]

Stan Egg?
Yo mister Funkeh. :D

[speedway]

why do people mistake ziggy and me ALL THE TIME :shrug: :D

[blackbird04217]

Same person, different personalities? :D

[Kid222]

Oh, sorry, i had that strange feeling that i'm doing something wrong, when i posted it.:schwitz:

[zeugnimod]

I'm not funky. :(

But I got my PB down to mid 1:09 now and managed to keep up with WR holder Kaw in a few races. :razz:

[blackbird04217]

BigTime / Nolan has the WR on his harddrive just waiting for a chance :D
(This is an unknown fact but is great :D)

[Kdovi]

why do people mistake ziggy and me ALL THE TIME :shrug: :D
Because you look like twins? :shrug:
http://www.lfsforum.net/images/customavatars/avatar48587_18.gif http://www.lfsforum.net/images/customavatars/avatar61953_4.gif
Yeah, Ziggy uses a little makeup (and you got better haircut imo) but not a big difference...
;p

[zeugnimod]

:rofl:

[chanoman315]

i wont be there sorry :(

[BigTime]

BigTime / Nolan has the WR on his harddrive just waiting for a chance :D


Golly I wish! The FZR is about as much fun as an all night dentist, so this is one I might be down a little on. :D

[blackbird04217]

Golly I wish! The FZR is about as much fun as an all night dentist, so this is one I might be down a little on. :D

I don't know about others, but I never though the dentist is much fun, all night there would be even worse... :D

[blackbird04217]

1:14:49 is my PB from the standing start. If I can pull that off during the event I will be amazed. My momo sucks to drive smooth with, but its better than not driving I suppose...

[jwardy]

I cant get on the server , i have no password:(

[Chrisuu01]

Okay guys is resign this is becaus i feel like im alny spoiling the fun for u guys and im just not fast enough:shrug:

Have a nice season further and lots of fun :)

[zeugnimod]

I suck, too. :x

Lost in round 1 against Kdovi. And i thought I even didn't drive that bad. :(

[Smurfen]

BAAah, i was so looking forward to it.. and i couldnt join the qualify session so i was eliminated......... :(:( just my luck

[Stefani24]

Damn, at least i learned, never change fuel on grid in h2h.

[LFSn00b]

I want to file a complaint.

Match 12 - Round 2

Kasper blocks me deliberately which makes me hit him and almost lose control.

[Kid222]

Good one, i thought i will be out after even before quali. Second round was my best in competition like this. :)

[Kdovi]

Second round was my best in competition like this.
Damn Eduardo thing :chairs:
Nah, will be nice fight in next events (how much do you want, Ed? ;p).

[Kaw]

I want to file a complaint.

Match 12 - Round 2

Kasper blocks me deliberately which makes me hit him and almost lose control.


Some of your own medicine mate! :) But thats allright :).

On the other hand. This has been one of the best races ever. Thanks to Nolan for that. Fantastic!

Dive bomb me anyone? :thumb:

[LFSn00b]

Dive bomb me anyone? :thumb:Oh my god... I can't believe you guys still care for event 2...

[de Souza]

Damn Eduardo thing :chairs:
Nah, will be nice fight in next events (how much do you want, Ed? ;p).

:D
I think I got very lucky though, there were at least 4 or 5 guys faster than me today. But well, I'm not complaining. :razz:


Kdovi: You know, I think I'm starting to like this... :shy:

[BigTime]

Oh my god... I can't believe you guys still care for event 2...

Event 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, they all give points for the championship. :saythat:

[Kid222]

Damn Eduardo thing :chairs:.
I will strike back wit teh Bean car. We'll see...!

[blackbird04217]

If no one has noticed, CoRe is starting to take the championship and run off with it... Will the [n00bs] be able to stop CoRe? Stay tuned for Event 4 and 5.

[AMB]

Will the [n00bs] be able to stop CoRe? Stay tuned for Event 4 and 5.

Good one lollol

[Kid222]

Website with results seems to be a bit... strange.:shrug:

[blackbird04217]

Results will be posted here on the forums after this round gets finalized and such. I can't say whether we will get the website up soon or not.

[Chrisuu01]

Dive bomb me anyone? :thumb:


yes that was me was a mistake but i said sorry and you won so stop complaining:razz:

and im in again i just snapped a bit sorry!

[blackbird04217]

Nolan was talking about Niko's aggressive move in Event 2, MRTs at Fern Bay Club since Niko floored it through the chicane in a gutsy move to overtake. I will be reviewing this stuff later tonight or tomorrow, so I will look into the blocking incident to see. I did notice it was dangerous at the least, and almost cost both drivers the race, but I want to look at it before doing any other actual judgments.

[blackbird04217]

Here are the replays from my side of things, and also the penalty reports for Round 3.

[de Souza]

Blackbird said that on his replay I talked on the warning zone, but I'm pretty sure - as Kdovi stated :P - that I talked on the forbidden zone. Anyone got a replay of that?

[blackbird04217]

Blackbird said that on his replay I talked on the warning zone, but I'm pretty sure - as Kdovi stated :P - that I talked on the forbidden zone. Anyone got a replay of that?

If you want the penalty go ahead and apply it :D For those that wanna see what I am saying, watch the replays.

[Kdovi]

but I'm pretty sure - as Kdovi stated :P - that I talked on the forbidden zone. Anyone got a replay of that?
I have no "stop talking" on this replay but they were on the start already, so I guess it was in forbidden zone. Dunno, would need server replays :shrug:

Blackbird: My chat was after qual 1 (the one where was chatting allowed for half a second :razz:)

[LFSn00b]

Event 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, they all give points for the championship. :saythat:Oh really? Everyone battles for the championship, so you don't have any priviledge to command people to block me and etc. on the championship.

Here are the replays from my side of things, and also the penalty reports for Round 3.I am not happy with the decision you made. As i watched the replay again, Kasper didn't block me once, he did it twice. As i understand in racing, you can do a small block manoveur once in a race. Not weave like mad.

When Kasper started doing the weaving thing, i did not know which side to pass as i assumed he would've blocked me. I did it from the left and i was right, he did block me after all. This is not in my opinion clean move. I demand a penalty on it.

[zeugnimod]

I demand a penalty on it.

Too bad you are not in the position to demand anything.

[speedway]

...especially after you showed such a great attituted before the event.

[Kaw]

Oh really? Everyone battles for the championship, so you don't have any priviledge to command people to block me and etc. on the championship.

Team orders in LFS? You really think that?:really: And why on earth would Nolan command me to block you? How would that give him any good? He would possible have beat you in the final anyway? :) And you've won over me if you hadn't gone wide in the last turn. Soooooooo, yeah. :tilt:

I demand a penalty on it.

Since when have been in a position to give out demands my little friend? :doh::splat::razz:

[de Souza]

If you want the penalty go ahead and apply it :D

Lol, I just want things to be clear and fair. Being an admin doesn't give me the right to put smilies when I want. :P Or does it? :scratchch

blablabla

As much as Kaw's attitude was weird and kinda unpredictable, he never really left the middle of the track and "blocked deliberately", and Niko never really pointed his car where he wanted to go. Decision is final, can we get over it now?

[LFSn00b]

Team orders in LFS? You really think that?:really: And why on earth would Nolan command me to block you? How would that give him any good?I started guessing nolan told you to block me, when he posted saying "Dive bomb?" and pointing into the last race happening.

[Kaw]

I started guessing nolan told you to block me, when he posted saying "Dive bomb?" and pointing into the last race happening.

What you and Nolan got going doesnt really have to affect me? I mean it's a one lap race, and are you just gonna let people by whitout a fight in the last sector of the track? Nah, I dont think so. At least I wont without a fight.

[Kdovi]

I just want things to be clear and fair.
I think that warning is unfortunately ^o^ fully appropriate

[blackbird04217]

de Souza- I honestly believe your talking happened within that safe period just because it's on the blackscreen before anything is up in the replay. I'll leave the decision to you as I don't think Michael, you or myself have any rights to place smilies or text in the races unless it's important.

Niko - I sat watching that replay for over a half an hour. If you watch it in normal speed it looks as if Kasper purposefully went for a hard block creating side contact. However watching it from several other views he did now swing the car from one side of the track to the other, but merely "wiggled" to make it wider. You had a chance to pass, more than one actually, you had loads more speed than he did, your issue was you decided where to go too late. Far too late. Sure, he could have been confusing you, but thats not really blocking. The decision made is the final decision. It is simply a warning.

Kasper & Everyone in the Head-to-Head: Summer Series, please do not wiggle your cars in that behavior since it is confusing, and more importantly a small bit of lag could cause the situation to be worse.

[BigTime]

yes that was me was a mistake but i said sorry and you won so stop complaining:razz:

and im in again i just snapped a bit sorry!

LOL, I wasn't referring to you... I was talking about a round 2 incident. Nothing wrong with what you did! :thumb:
