Let's have some fun in the summer break! Next are the F2's at Killarney, we use the last version of Francescos great South African track. You have free car choice and no limit shift+r
Please restrict chat to emergency messages only, including at the end of the race until ALL drivers still racing have crossed the line. Using the "no letterbox" patch makes chat messages in car obsolete, so you better uncheck it in GPL options ;) GLA and have FUN Title: Re: UKGPL Season 30 Fun - F2 - Killarney - Jul 26 Post by: Cookie on July 26, 2016, 10:39:04 PM +0100 Replay: https://www.sendspace.com/file/c3euk0
I was not fit and it was too hot here ::) Title: Re: UKGPL Season 30 Fun - F2 - Killarney - Jul 26 Post by: DLogan on July 27, 2016, 03:04:01 AM +0100 Made some major setup changes before the race that paid off (for once). First few laps were close and fun with Dave and Tris, but then everyone left me on my lonesome. Last 10 laps were spent trying to get a 1:18, but hot here too and hands were slipping. Fun track, thx for the run, guys.

Apart from that accident I had a pretty good race. Thanks guys! Grats Dean on your victory! Title: Re: UKGPL Season 30 Fun - F2 - Killarney - Jul 26 Post by: Ronniepeterson on July 27, 2016, 08:46:50 AM +0100 I had some problems joining this one until I realised I had the old version of the track :-[. Got it sorted just in time to join with the Cooper for a fun race. Grats again to Dean, Doni and Jani.

Thanks guys! Grats Dean on your victory! Hi Pastor :D , that maneuver kicked me straight into a disco. Never mind... Title: Re: UKGPL Season 30 Fun - F2 - Killarney - Jul 26 Post by: Doni Yourth on July 28, 2016, 02:52:37 PM +0100 Nice job, Dean! Man! Seems to me that you pulled a rabbit out of the hat! I was watching you in qualifying and to say that you were having trouble keeping it on the road and matching my lap time would be like saying that Will Ferrel is funny. Not hardly. That it came good for you in the race is just about exactly the opposite side of the coin with a smooth and very rapid drive. Even if I hadn't bungled T1 on Lap01, there's no way I could have threatened you let alone challenge. So again, nice drive.
Bad luck and misfortune for losing Axel to not being up to par and Tris to, well, I don't know what as it seemed he just pitted and retired. ??? My P2 placing was a remarkable fluke and entirely unexpected/undeserved after my early gaffe. Only after great battles with Ray and David did I luck in for the placing. I must say that those wretched gutters are a nightmare! I had a wild tank-slapper to my credit at one point and only by the grace of the gods did I manage to save it. Late in the going, I got rather fatigued and coasted in with a small margin over the scrapping pair of Jani and Ray. Grats on P3, JP! While I quite enjoy the layout of Killarney, I found the standard textures...mips and srbs...wholly unsatisfactory and a real blitz on my eyeballs. I swapped out many of the textures...asphalt, horizon, sky, gutters, etc...to allow me to at least distinguish where I was going. After the race, I killed off those shrubs/bushes down in and on the exit of T1. Much better now. :) |
