next fun event

[Paul Swire]

Now, if we could just find Paul. Hope everything is all right with you Paul...... ???

All good here Jerry

Just busy with real life. Thanks for the concern.

[Paul Swire]

As Gorka said we have already had the T70 at Nords so the way I see it it is between the Clio, Palatov D4, F3 and the BMW 320T.

The BMW is a bit flippy as Harri said.

So we are left with the Clio and Palatov and F3

Let's have your final thoughts so I can get the server up for some practice.

If we can't decide I will pick one at random in the morning before I put the server on.

We will have the T70 at Brianza and UFS2000 at brands.

I also tried DJcs recommendation of the BMW 320T. It's good but if you're a "squirrel!" head like me, easy to forget it flips on some of the crests.

Think you been reading one of my old posts, we done that BMW320T car Harri. I was recommending the Endurance Series Mod.

[bullwinkle]

clio or f3 for me

[bullwinkle]

that's a good one DJ

Please dont do F3s, Birtwell does them and I think we should respect this.

We can do F2s instead if we want to go this way.

[gorgias1976]

Paul, bring the Boxmaster to Nords.

[jerry 33]

Boxmaster - you and dj would probally run 6 minutes in them too.. ;D


I would do Clio or F3 (if F3 is out because of Birtwell - then F2)... that's my vote and i'm sticking to it.........


Hope all that real life stuff calm's down for you Paul.. Bummer when that happens

[Harri Mac]

Paul, bring the Boxmaster to Nords.

Um, I tried it, it's a bit slow and boring there. There was a server running the Autumn Tourist with a large selection of vehicles at Christmas. DJC tried it too and was unimpressed. Was fun at Targa though.

We've already run Clio's this season haven't we? Zolder was it?

The Peugeot Sport 207 http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/fi...earchtext= is quite fun but eats tyres badly.

You could also try the Corvette (street version) or the NSX, they both are easy cars to get on track with just 3 days to sunday.

That decided it both the NSX and Corvette. It is the tourist version after all

[gorgias1976]

Quick announcement made.

jeez sorry for the late reply -

i was a little disappointed nikos tells me hasn't driven the usf2000 or the gt500 yet ....because....sr4l; hasn't run them yet ....please ...amazing cars -

[jerry 33]

I agree with you John on the USF2000 - I think it is the best Mod on RFactor 2! it is the closet thing to what my old car felt like.


there is a league that i just found that is running them, they have a fun race today that i am hoping to race at. it is a Friday league that practice starts at 2:30 (that be eastern usa time) i think that is 19:50 at Toban track- if anybody is interested go here:

have no idea on how they run there events, today will be a learning experience. i do think they have a formation lap before standing starts...


hope to see some of you there......

That is something I'd like we did too (considering our experience together).

[jerry 33]

Come join us Gorka and anybody else who is free..
again difference i see from our league, there is a formation lap before standing start. it looks like damage is set to full on and mechanical failures might come into play also.
it looks like the race format for today will be one 10 lap race. then reverse field for second 10 lap race. then a third race...
the rest i will find out this afternoon.... practice starts in less than an hour.....

[DJCruicky]

How did you do Jerry?

Impossible for me , being out the whole weekend.

I like the formation lap idea, but I don't like the 100% damage in this racing situations where we can hardly see on our sides, it would ruin many races and take the fun with it.
Also I don't like driving mechanical failures, reason is that some of us who drive manual gears would have more chances of having a clutch/gearbox/transmission failure.

report:
toban is short, busy and not too many places to pass.

i qualified 7th out of 13. i was low 58 seconds, top 5 guys were low 57's. (same church - different pew > )
anywho, they had 3 races, each being 10 laps. these races are just fun races until league races start on Feb. 2nd.
first race was based of qually. i had a good start and was doing good - that is until somebody made a really aggressive move to get by me and spun me around, i finished 7th in that race.
second race - top 10 inverted field. i started well again, running 3rd, that is until somebody made a really aggressive move to get by me and spun me around, i finished 7th again.
third race - again inverted field based off of race 2. good start and was doing good right up until - somebody made a really aggressive move to get by me and put me into a wall - race over!
no sorry's, no - NP - just put your helmut on, pull your visor down and race.... it might change on longer track.. i will try next race i think in two weeks time at Mores. so, that is that.....

[DJCruicky]

Bugger Jerry. You will get them next time.
