Make sure you zip everything first this time. It was a pain in the butt having to download each file manually.Mush said:

Yeah, maybe we can test it to see how it holds up with 16 people. Sorry to Mush btw for nudging under the bridge on the first lap, I backed off but you braked at a different time than I planned to, hope that didn't put you in the pits?

oh well never mind.Will you be able to race grand valley next week? I have a race with the F1 guys the same day and that would just be a little too much racing in one day for me.
Yeah, wasn't sure if it was still open. Since there is an actual schedule for this one it makes it easier for me to see when I can race.
Right now, I know I'd be able to Jan 29.
Just so happens to be a league week off when we're expecting to go on vacation, but beyond that I'd only know as it gets to the week of the event. If that works for someone, let me know.

Thanks for streaming it!vissione said:http://www.justin.tv/vissione/b/277613116
58min in is definitely the highlight of the race! Poor Niks
UFRA said:Oil change is allowed.
Changing any of the settings the car comes with is allowed.
Any of the three racing tire types are allowed.
Buying anything that increases HP or performance is not allowed.
Glad to see you on board
Okay, I'll buy the Super GT car tomorrow and start trying it out on the next track (unless he's racing that one?) and start looking toward tweaking for the track.

Solid 6th Weekend_Warrior. Glad to see you finish in the points strong. I will be practicing for Grand Valley more than I did for Suzuka so maybe I can nick us a few more points.

Thanks for doing this, did we get lots of people watching?
No worries man, that incident was the least of my problems. :lolMikeDub said:
Lap 6: Got screamed at saying there's someone on the phone from "work" for me. Turns out it was just the video store. Had to drive for half the lap with one hand. Spin out on second to last corner and hit Niks, damaging the engine and neglected the opportunity to go into the pits even though they're RIGHT THERE.
Lap 7: Realising I made a terrible terrible mistake by not pitting, I see Dead Man coming behind me and try to let him through without any fight (this was for position) as I was in no shape to defend. Anyway, I brake stupidly and he shunts me (entirely my fault, apologies), car gets damaged again. :lol

Niks said:What the hell Beefo?? Refused to let me by even though I was lapping him. Only passed him when he spun himself.
Sorry about that, I try to let people by when then get close though. I remember seeing you behind me but it looked like you were hanging back a bit so I wasn't sure when to let you by. I don't race online to often and I don't really have access to the game outside of weekends so I'll be the first to admit that my racing etiquette needs some work
Mush said:OK, since no one is using the Denso Lexus, I say we leave it out and have vissione as our official broadcast partner.
I have no complaints with that. Unless Brentech is joining? But i think that's 15 teams?
Yeah I had some minor damage on my rear left from there abouts. Got a few shunts from the back because I was freaking out with everyone behind me :lol I drove with that damage for 17 laps though :| I couldn't afford to pit earlier. In fact I only pitted because you did and your times were faster than mine.seattle6418 said:
I came down the corkscrew to find like 4 cars all over the track. I think there were two back markers with you and niks and I drove by to take the lead for a bit. I was totally not in the zone at all for a race and was going way slow round some turns. You took the lead and I just let of the gas and settled for 2nd. We did have a good race for a few laps which I really enjoyed.seattle6418 said: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
seattle6418 said:
hahah man I was behind you and saw the NSX. He didn't budge at all which gave me a chance to close the gap. It was white shadow if I'm not mistaken. I gotta say I had a massive grin when I saw you trying to get passed but he wasn't having any of it
So trueseattle6418 said:
Thanks for the congrats Angst. I saved the replay will try and upload it if you want it. Gonna go back and watch it myself
Good race to everyone btw especially the back markers. When I was lapping them they all waited for a good spot and then let me by. Big thanks to everyone.

If I was messing up any of you leaders I apologize. I always tried to stay on the outside of corners when the faster cars were right behind but a few times by taking a bad line I got loose and started swerving abruptly.
I'd make sure to just join with an already existing team. So if someone needs a driver - I know for sure I could drive on the race on Jan 29. From there...would know at least a week prior if I'm available.
edit, i simply wouldn't want the league to go without a broadcast. it's great fun

Don´t worry man, i just thought it was funny. I wasn´t trying to bump you, i thought you confused my car with the Xanavi GT-R, but it´s ok, no one got hurt.
Mush said:
I give Niks +1 vote for MVP due to his awesome job catching up to the leaders and even having a shot at 2nd place, only to get involved in that incident and get in the sand.
Maybe I'm biased since he's my teammate, but I really was impressed at how he was far behind 3rd at one point, then suddenly he was in 3rd, now going for Dibbz in 2nd (who was only 4 sec ahead) and then it fell apart lol. It was really a moment a lot of us were like :O when we saw it, judging by the reactions in the justin.tv chat.
Or, vissione should get honorary MVP for the awesome streaming job. LOL

Niks = MVP
Thought all the way, and finished with a good result.
Spirit of Translator san = blu
Never had any problems overtaking him, and he had a damaged car multiple times.

I second thatDead Man said:
Edit: btw do we have a break down of who is controller and who is wheel?
blu
Wants the largest console games publisher to avoid Nintendo's platforms.
I think that Spirit of Translator-san should go to Shadybiz this time. A) he took more damage than I did during that race, B) I just watched justintv's replay, and he was fighting his car to make way on more than one occasion, and C) his Supra is the weakest car in the lot, but he was still competing. Actually, I think him and me, we did the same mistake - pitted too many times, which is fatal for cars without any power advantage.
for the MVP my vote goes for l2ounD, surely I'm biased like ufra becouse he's my teamates but he did a pretty good race.
he started the race in 10th place and he managed to get to the third place.
dibbz and lazlow was pretty good too but l2ound also managed to get the second fastest lap of the day (1.20.697) behind fas (1.20.362) impressive.
so overall IMO l2unD did one of the most impressive and cleanest race.

I'll give Mush the nod for the spirit of translator-san award. Despite not quite being there for parts of the race he was very courteous and make it easy to pass. ShadyBiz was just reeeally slow, I don't know if he was dealing with damage a lot or if his Supra is too underpowered. But if it is the car, I'd recommend letting them switch to the Denso Lexus, it's not fair making their team so hampered.
Yeah I was really impressed that Shadybiz stuck it out. Good show from him.
I had no idea how far Niks or anyone behind me was but when I saw the final times I was surprised to see how close they were to me.
I was doing 1.24's and 1.25's most of the time and just got stuck in that slow pace. Just didn't want to spin out or do anything crazy to lose 2nd place.
Sounds good that you guys had a live stream going on Justin tv. Credit to vissione for that.
