Awesome stream! Can I hire your services for the main NeoGAF Racing League? lol
I think most raced on softs last week. For some reason softs/mediums/hards last about the same time.Dead Man said:
It was exactly the same last week. I think we started the race one hour late or something.Dibbz said:
Pretty cool with the stream, but the music... the music.... :-/

I'm watching the stream. This is just qualifying right now right? When is the race going to start?

Man, that was a great race. I was cheering for you Niks. Amazing how you were able to recover that much time, but unlucky on the end 
Awesome race! Congrats FASJ, dibbz and Round to the podium!
Looking forward to the replay!
I felt bad for you niks when you went off track on lap 27. But don't be too hard on the backmarkers. It's pretty hard when you see two guys coming up behind you - where are you supposed to go? Kind of hard to just disappear.

Ah, thanks. I almost had a massive comeback to pass him, but brain faded on the corkscrew and watched him drive off into the distance :lolMush said:
Edit: TheAzRim won't be able to make it for the races, so if anyone want to join a very mediocre team that missed the first race, feel free to let me know as long as it is within the rules to change drivers mid season.

Yep I saw that. Wasn't sure you tapped ShadyBiz and spun or just went in to fast. But it was a good little battle for 6th. lol
I thought it was a pretty good race, a few bumps and scrapes with other cars but it was all innocent. Wish I could have been a little closer to the leaders, I think I was getting lapped after 5 laps, wtf?
Congrats to the winner, really fast from the start.
And thanks for the cheers!
It was good fun, however I have a couple of issues.
Second time Blu makes me go to the pits early. Although I dont know what happened in the corkscrew, didnt expect to see 3 cars including the leader sideways. Unfortunate.
What the hell Beefo?? Refused to let me by even though I was lapping him. Only passed him when he spun himself.
Even so, good race!

Well, congrats to everybody and thanks at the same time!
Altough i got a good result i did some little fucks ups that i´m not quite sure if affected or not the others.
I started second, even tough the qualify lap was 1´19´4... anyone know why? It said on my screen it was the best lap for the session and i didn´t quit, so i´m not sure what happened.
I was going careful on the first lap in cold tires, but after T1 i hit Dibbz slightly, i got damage on my left front wheel, i don´t know if you got any? (my braking point was way different than yours, that´s whay i ended up giving that minor bump.
Things were going well, but in the corckscrew at lap 3 or 4 i spun, and i tried to get my car out of the line, but i think i ended up in front of everybody I got scared before the turn because a Castrol Supra almost hit me going full speed. (i think he missed the braking point for the corckscrew).
After that, i had a nice battle for first (i think with Lazlo?), and overtook him just before the corkscrew.
Had one minor incident with a lapped NSX, that left me WTF? for a few moments. Forgot his name, but i had the second car in my mirror, so i wanted to pass him ASAP. He fought for position and i didn´t gave him room, i thought we was going to slow down like it is the etiquette for lapped cars... but he didn´t, so since i took the good line he ended up off track...
All in all it was a good race, but i have a feeeling lots of people had problems early in the race. Laguna is a narrow track. I drove 14 laps with little damage in one of the wheels, i´m glad i didn´t needed to stop.
Pitted on lap 14, used soft tires all the way. (dangerous in the end). Best lap was 1´20´3 if i´m not mistaken.
This series is great!

Think that was Dibbz. I foolishly dove down the inside of you on your final lap at the final corner though. Thought if I crossed the line behind you then my race would be over and there were cars up ahead which might have been the places infront of me.
Annoyed that I put it in the wall with 5 laps to go which caused me to pit and lose a battle with Niks plus have RounD get past me but overall a good race.

The Flaming Deers still have a seat available, all yours if you want it? I don't particulary want to race next weekend so another driver would be sweet!

Actually, that was intentional. One of the instances where voicechat would be good. Are you in better tires? should i pass you? Things like that.
Ever since i saw you i didn´t knew if you were chasing anyone close by, so i didn´t knew if i should overtake you or just follow closely.
I thought with the extra lap you could have overtaken anyone, that´s why i slowed down.
