If my team mate doesn't turn up you're getting in a Sauber with me
Sorry mate, my wheel's still busted. :/
Will have it fixed for the next race though!

cool thanks, but dont expect great things I haven't played this since the patch lol.
Congrats to Lucius! Amazing race and like he said; never more than 3.5 seconds from each other. Grats to Crumbs too on his drive from last to second. Would have preferred to finish ahead for the championship, but it makes it more interesting going ahead.
Roll on.....Valencia!

Uploading my highlights now, Quiche, GuessWho and I had some good scraps during it
Did better than I expected if I'm honest, was a bit more consistent than usual by using the wheel and was managing my tires better towards the end. Pleased to have stuck in a quick time near the end too.

Kharma is banned from the league. Dangerous driving.
My highlights are done, I'll upload them tonight. Getting put to the back wasn't what I expected, but I had a lot of fun battling my way through the pack. Wish I had a few more laps to catch Speech though! Was taking 2 seconds a lap off our gap at the end.

Brilliant race today, maybe one of my favourites.
Highlights: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cyO0UuEfxM4
Some of my moves were a bit ambitious, but no one was spun in the process.

Crumbs, I'm getting my pre-drink on:
Aussies make shit wine. It's not very nice. Still going to down it, though!
My highlights are uploading now. If I can type a sentence when I get home I'll post them, or tomorrow morning. Looking forward to watching everybody elses! I would watch yours now but it'd take a year to load with my upload going.

I honestly forgot we had some brilliant racing today! I was so focused on catching Lucius and keeping the time up against you at the end that I kinda zoned out haha. It was really good racing against you and I love the move at the end of the straight where we leave each other zero room but still make the corner.
My start to the race seems awfully violent from your perspective, didn't seem that way from my point of view bar when I hit Foli.
How come you don't record Mumble chat Crumbs?

Haha your view of Kharma smacking me! Loved your double overtake on the back straight
Ha, me taking off my headset and chucking it down sounds so violent! Really good to see your scraps! You had a really eventful race. If only I had a few more laps ya bastard!
Your move on me wasn't that aggressive to be fair. I pulled a similar-ish move on Orgun at the next corner in the race, you were just unlucky I turn in so tight for that corner. You were really unlucky to get wiped out on the first lap because you could have finished higher after that start!
That overtake at 4:50 was my favourite of the race. I'm glad it was clean from your POV too!
Man, I am hungover as fuck as this is the best cure. Great vids all round - everyone had a close race.

Here's my vid.
I had a terrible first lap and had to pit three times instead of two, so I'm really pleased that I ended up in fifth and ahead of Orgun. Some great scraps as I was coming up through the pack.
FRAPS keeps going out of sync with the audio. It's not how I render the videos - the actual FRAPS files are like that. Dunno why. :\

From the first 3 laps seeing how close me and Lucius were is pretty unbelievable, and it's mad it stayed that way pretty much throughout the entire race. It's a shame we probably won't be team-mates next season. </3

That's alright, I had my blind spots in Malaysia so we're even now!

8:20 in my vid.
Wasn't your fault, just a racing incident!
Edit: Does anyone have a screencap/video of the quali results? I was an idiot and deleted the vids I had!

I think some people made recordings of the vids and the results at the end....

Valencia will be fun.
I predict Lucius, Orgun or Phleg eating the wall on Saturday. Maybe all three. Definitely Quiche

You were spoiled by China and Turkey. So many run-off areas! There's a few here but most of the time if you lose it you're going to lose a wing, get a puncture or just have your car explode.
It's a cracking track to drive though. I was only being a cock in my last post - odds are all of us are going to end up in the wall. When you're racing someone it's so easy to push just that little bit too hard and here it will cost us.

Good. It's about time we didn't have a pussy track.
How about you come back? I miss our moaning yank.

Yeah that's looking increasingly likely
Me and street circuits don't get on so well.Was happy I had speed with the wheel, but as soon as my tyres went off I had zero grip. Will need to try and nick a good setup in the mean-time.

That seems to be your one main weakness - on dying tyres, you really do struggle.

I think you should switch to the wheel, Phleg. You honestly will get better after a few weeks.
... which is a scary thought.
I'm going to be playing again a bit later if anyone fancies a race. I had a lot of fun last night!

I have to practice so I am in! Don't let me down again Foli like last week! I will be a hazard on this track although I assumed you all had guessed that haha
I suppose it is for the best, and it's a good thing we have practice so hopefully I can switch without it affecting the league.
I'm game for practice tonight too
I wish I could hop on mumble but I need my 360 pad for that :/ (doesnt detect my other mic)Has been a rough few weeks. Probably won't be able to catch this weekend either as I'm going out again Friday.
I miss your money-hatting.

I span and lost my wing. Was the second to last lap so no point pitting. I kept my foot down and just bounced off the wall so I tried again on the last corner and... err... OOOPS.
Speech is never going to believe that was an accident though haha.
