QUOTE="Mezign, post: 166061, member: 2526"]I've got a young family that I've been neglecting to drive around in circles in a car I don't like, in a league I've achieved everything I wanted to in the first 3 races. Zero motivation to participate. [/QUOTE] Was your goal to take out a dozen cars lol. Kidding
@Motors560 awesome battle before the stops, lost some ground to the front few but was so fun i didnt really care. 8th in qual, 4th in race. My 28.6 would have put me on pole by 4 tenths in div 2
What a shocker for me. I guess the thing is, quite a few others had issues too which is why I maintained my qualifying position of 7th. I saw @Bryan_F jump into the pits, but my exit out of the final turn was too fast to jump in without cutting the pit lines so I waited 1 more lap. @StigsTC caught and passed me but I came back at him a few corners later trying the outside at surtees, but he bumped me off. He redressed a few corners later (thank you) and we continued. Then soon after I caught @Russell and misjudged his mid-corner speed at the final turn and bumped him off and so I redressed. A few laps later @Knuckles spun into the pit wall and stigs had another spin and I was still looking ok for top 5 as I was catching @Motors560 but then I ran wide at T1 and undid any hope of that. How was your first race @GT-71CKL ?

Congratulations Beau on another well deserved title. Not sure what the customs are on your planet, but it's a real honor to win here on earth. Beau the BEAST!! Killed it!
ROUND 6 : Mount Panorama Motor Racing Circuit - 21 laps - 18:15 Sunny As always please take 2 mins to read the following so you have an understanding of what is expected on race night......If you have any questions, or want clarification on any of the rules or regs please ask ! ROOM OPEN : Most room captains will 'try' to have rooms open by about 7:50 AEDT. Please be on time, or let the room captain or div thread if you may be late. If all agree, the room may wait for you, Within reason. Please remember we have drivers from NZ, and later starts mean a much later night for them. QUALIFYING : 8:20 AEDT RACE START TIME : 8:30 AEDT LAG ISSUES / ROOM RESTARTS : This is up to the room host. If there is a Disconnection (or cars stuck on grid) at race start, it is sporting to try to get them back in, which may mean a new room to be set up. I always look at 1 or 2 starts if required due to DSC, but as it gets later everyone needs to be aware of getting things going. Please be as reasonable as you can with this.... TURN 1 LAP 1 : This has the potential to ruin someones night if we dont use our heads ! Should be everyone's goal to get through the first lap with ZERO contact. Give room and run in your 'lane' till you have space to run the normal race line. TRACK LIMITS : As we are running with 'track limit penalties" OFF, we will run with our usual Raceonoz track limit regulations. This means you MUST have at least 2 wheels on the ripple strip OR white line that defines the track limit. Be careful with The Esses after Skyline. If you do make a mistake and have to run through the corner, be aware that you are not allowed to gain any advantage. CONTACT : Is to be avoided at all times..... If you rear end someone and gain an advantage, YOU ARE EXPECTED to give the spot back. Side by side 'rubbing' is racing, within reason, but all drivers are expected to give racing room. COMPULSORY START TYRE : You MUST start on RH or RM tyres. But may pit to change to a maximum compound of RS during the race. PIT ENTRY : Drivers MUST make an attempt to use the pit entry / exit lines. The Pit entry is difficult here as there is an S bend on entry that you need to slow down for and if you run a little bit deep, it can cause you to run off-track and be reset to the final corner. If this happens, you have to complete another lap before attempting to pit again. I advise you practice to avoid this. PIT EXIT : Please use the pit exit lane and be aware of cars approaching on the straight. NOTE: Pitting is NOT compulsory BLUE FLAGS : Please observe blue flags, and move out of the way of faster cars if you are being lapped. Failure to observe blue flags WILL result in a penalty STEWARDS GROUP AND RACE PROTESTS : This season the stewards will be will be @Hatfield @JonoStan96 @Viperzed & @emmo46. If you have reason to protest, please SAVE YOUR REPLAY, and then let us know via a PM. DO NOT BLOW UP IN THE FORUM OR IN THE ROOM CHAT. There have been multiple incidents where the replays from drivers have been different, so its true that sometimes things are not as black and white as they may seem. You have until MIDNIGHT, Monday night to register your protest via PM. We will ask for video evidence from both drivers or room captain to make any decision. SAVE YOUR REPLAY : If the room host can ask all drivers to save their replay would be good before exiting the room.....once they exit out and the option goes, it cant be retrieved !
