Title: Re: UKGTR Season 15 - Albert Park - Sep 18 Post by: SRW on September 17, 2011, 10:56:53 AM +0100 looking forward to this one especially as we are back in GT1's
When we had the GT500 championship race here earlier in the year i didnt get to race as i hadnt installed all the mods and when i logged on to the server on race night it let me get on track but no one could see me and none of my lap times where appearing, was well frustrated! Title: Re: UKGTR Season 15 - Albert Park - Sep 18 Post by: goldtop on September 17, 2011, 11:28:57 AM +0100 By the looks of laptimes in previous events I'll be propping up the back of the grid in the Ford GT ::)
Title: Re: UKGTR Season 15 - Albert Park - Sep 18 Post by: Cobo on September 17, 2011, 12:13:07 PM +0100 Hi guys! May i take part on this one? Almost a year retired from GTR2, a baby and iracing to take the blame... Title: Re: UKGTR Season 15 - Albert Park - Sep 18 Post by: H@L9000 on September 17, 2011, 01:14:17 PM +0100 May i take part on this one? Hi. You may. All drivers welcome. :) Title: Re: UKGTR Season 15 - Albert Park - Sep 18 Post by: quicksilver384 on September 17, 2011, 04:38:09 PM +0100 not gonna get much practice for this 1 maybe 30 mins or so before the race but will see you when you lap me again :-)
Title: Re: UKGTR Season 15 - Albert Park - Sep 18 Post by: spanner on September 17, 2011, 04:58:25 PM +0100 Tried a couple of cars but was in the 1.50's. Do struggle jumping in and out of cars. Cant get any of these working for me, fronts just wash when turning the wheel more than a 1/4 of a turn.
Title: Re: UKGTR Season 15 - Albert Park - Sep 18 Post by: goldtop on September 18, 2011, 05:20:58 PM +0100 I'm looking very doubtful for this now. Wife's been called into work and I'll be on kid duty till 9ish :(
Title: Re: UKGTR Season 15 - Albert Park - Sep 18 Post by: quicksilver384 on September 18, 2011, 06:53:51 PM +0100 hey guys some bad news i kinda ran over the USB plug for my wheel and squashed it and now it aint working properly so im not gonna be on untill i can afford to get a new one.
Will keep you updated though. Title: Re: UKGTR Season 15 - Albert Park - Sep 18 Post by: Legzy on September 18, 2011, 09:38:57 PM +0100 Other than:
1) It was a great race, particularly the early part where H@L was being annoyingly fast/persistent, I just couldn't shake him off 8) 2) TT was lucky, I'd have had him if we had just one more lap ;) 3) Thanks all I have nothing else :) Title: Re: UKGTR Season 15 - Albert Park - Sep 18 Post by: SRW on September 18, 2011, 09:44:17 PM +0100 that was an exciting race, i thought i could hang on to the pack early in the race, but started drifting back mid way through the race. was good to be back in a GT1 car :)
Title: Re: UKGTR Season 15 - Albert Park - Sep 18 Post by: H@L9000 on September 18, 2011, 10:00:06 PM +0100 Results and replay in the usual places
Title: Re: UKGTR Season 15 - Albert Park - Sep 18 Post by: H@L9000 on September 18, 2011, 10:02:07 PM +0100 Nice race for me, lots of fun. :)
I was chasing Legzy early on and trying to keep the pressure on but, eventually I fell back a bit. I caught up with Lazlow towards the end and finished the race just behind him. Title: Re: UKGTR Season 15 - Albert Park - Sep 18 Post by: Truetom on September 18, 2011, 10:15:29 PM +0100 2) TT was lucky, I'd have had him if we had just one more lap ;) Good one. :thumbup2: Title: Re: UKGTR Season 15 - Albert Park - Sep 18 Post by: spanner on September 19, 2011, 01:49:34 PM +0100 Managed to dig out an Imola setup which wasnt too bad if a bit too understeerey. Never got the hang of softs so stuck with mediums all round but took a lap or two to get the pressures up. Not used to so much close racing, good to see some new and old faces back with some good racing. Managed to finally make a move on Cobo and managed to get a bit of a gap but seemed to struggle with braking and into the RH corner after the back straight lost the back and half spun facing the inside. Had to reverse it onto the racing line to try and turn it round and just managed before the following guys came through. Sorry for causing you guys a heart attack coming round the corner!
Tyre wear wasnt high, only 5-7 but ws locking up more and more, not the fronts tho! This meant i was in rather close company for the last few laps, and sadly managed to lose it to nsfast. Good fun, thanks all! |
