BIMMER why'd you quit?

Preserving the nastiness for a race that counts lol

But, you need to get that internet fixed or turn off your anti gravity hack from mass effect so you can come racing...

pretty sure you were the fastest car in a straight line during practice, you sure ?

Positive, everyone was pulling me on the straights except maybe the evora...it was so bad that if I wasn't already on someone's bumper they'd still pull me even when I was in their draft. I was fine in the turns, but definitely need a little more speed in the straights...especially for Sebring this week. I'm messing around with my tuning though in case I don't get a PI bump hopefully I can extract some speed with less downforce but not sacrifice the handling I have too much.

With this being an exhibition race, PI adjustments won't be happening. Wait until Sebring and try to get some more speed.

negative, one of the pimary purposes of the exhibition races is for PI adjustments. they'll be up tuesday or wednesday.

Evoras are not a speed car. It leans more towards the handling side of the spectrum. Testing should have showed you that.

My point exactly, I'm not complaining...my statements in that quote was a response to the comment about my car being faster than the rest of the field on the straights. In our practice sessions we were racing from a standstill and my car launches very nicely in combination with my gearing selection so I'd get a nice jump on the field, but when pace was finally set...I'd start getting sucked up by almost every car excluding the evora...which can out handle me so that nullifies any advantage I'd have against it. I'm not whining or anything...figured I'd just throw not so subtle hints at me needing a PI bump especially since Sebring is a mostly higher speed track and generally sets the pace for the podium race early on. I'll take all the help I can get until I get my car and skills dialed back in lol.

Oh yes they will. THE PI will be up tonight. That was the main and sole purpose of this Exhibition Race. To get a feel of where cars would be. To get livery squared away, have the Tech Inspector check HP and other factors to insure rules are being adhered to. To help the rookies get their feet wet in what it's like to compete for a race that lasts more than 25 laps with people who want to race hard and clean.

I saw some incidents that those in A room know who they are that should not have happened as well as in C and D room. B room somehow had no MAJOR incidents. Next race is for points. So lets try to eliminate the big crashes.

oh i didn't see you on the finishing list lol my bad man

Oh crap... I just got told. Well, I'm going to stop making assumptions from now on and just focus on tuning and racing.

Yeah like Raft No Brakes living up to his name. Not only intentionally cutting both chicanes on purpose but plowing into my teammate and ruining his car on lap 8/9. Seriously not cool dude.

Don't forgot lap 1 where your teammate took out your other teammate LOL First race jitters i s'pose...

He didn't take him out. It was an unintentional tap. I watched it. But it's nothing compared to the lap 8/9 thing.

Found out the problem. Someone hacked into my wireless network and was using it so I had reduced bandwidth. Had to change my credentials. Fixed.

I'm posting two pictures of the same moment from two different angles,

Pic 1 is where dan hit the brakes which is pretty spot on for the braking zone


Pic 2 is where your teammate hit the brakes, his lights come on at the exact same time as Dans, which unfortunately for himself and anyone behind him is about 150 or so feet too soon for anyone else driving at a race pace.

Granted i know you aren't supposed to run over the car in front of you, but he definitely braked early...

Where he braked for the hairpin and almost took out hired would have been something to see lol but it's racing, eventually we all run out of the ability to dodge bullets....

He already had Aero damage so he had to brake earlier. Dan car was perfectly fine at that point in the race. And not to mention the Competition Coupe has much better braking capabililty than the F50.

Oohwee that's early on the brakes regardless of damage

That aero damage also makes you go slower, he braked too early... It's too early to be braking there in A room, i'm sorry any other driver in the room probably would have ran him over yourself included, only option would have been to swerve around him but it happens so fast people either try to brake, or swerve... And like forest said "You never know what you're gunna get" lol
