1:18s with race fuel, hit a wall and you are dead with these delicate cars, I bashed a wall twice sideways
not very hard, and once it bent the steering, and then it killed the engine 0% health
In a real car it would have dented the bodywork at worst.

The damage model on these PG3 cars is quite farcical. Considering the time it took for things to be
perfected, and all the man months of testing, it is disappointing.
I would consider turning damage off except that might cause other trouble.  Shocked

Keep off the walls chaps or it will be an early bath (without the "up and under")

What a waste of a night that was. I somehow managed to pull my hphones out of the socket as we went through T1 and the distraction was enough to outbreak myself at T3. Engine dead, game over, Elvis hardly got on stage let alone left the building  Roll Eyes

You were certainly making me sweat in the early laps.

Shame you were not in the Westlake!

Grats to Geoffers on a fine drive.

Yes the soft tyres did last but I was on canvas at the end.

Sorry guys but I thought that track was totally dire. I unenthusiastically went along with it but my concentration soon waned (aided by some early Xmas beers) and hitting the barriers was for once a welcome tonic  Roll Eyes
9 entries for a popular new mod told its own story. We need a new series and exciting cars to strike while the anvil is hot.

Congrats to the series champion and podium guys, and thanks to the organisers (though next time keep the series shorter  Wink ) , well done all that attended all season  Smiley

That was my final P&G event as an administrator. I gave notice to Matt earlier this year.

It been wonderful fun and now with P&G3 and Matt at the helm the future looks very bright indeed.

I will enjoy attending most of the forthcoming events next year just as a driver.

Congrats to the podium, well done lads. clap


I damned shame I didn't get the chance to fight Tony and Matt for the third place.
A clean sweep for SBRC was within reach Grin


Thanks for your efforts in these P&G race series Tony, much appreciated by us all  thumbup1.

Actually quite liked the track, (I know, I would do cause I won), I'm quite a fan of short tracks, usually make for some frantic action.

Congrats to Clive, Alex & Tony for making it to the end.  clap

Congrats to John, Clive & Tony on the championship podium.   clap

Also thanks to Matt & Tony for organising this year's races.

I don't know what Matt has planned for next year, but I tend to agree with Mark that the series need to be shorter & also have more varied car selections. When I started racing here in GTL we used to have an enduro race every 3rd week, would be great to resurrect that in P&G. Wink

Unofficial LapChart

Finished 3rd by keeping it on the black stuff  Grin  ... not that I was exceptionally fast  Undecided

Congrats to Geoffers for the win and John for the overall championship. I guess the virtual cupboard is running out of space.

Many thanks Tony for putting the effort and time in organising this series. Not always the most rewarding job I guess, but highly appreciated (by me at least).

If I can make one sugestion to the new admin, please do not be overly obsessed with equal car selections.. the aliens always know which one to pick and others have different reasons to pick another car (engine sound, nice paint job, curiosity, shiny wheels, etc, etc.)

When I started racing here in GTL we used to have an enduro race every 3rd week, would be great to resurrect that in P&G. Wink

That is a great idea!

Tony does a brilliant job with the series he creates and runs mostly with very little help.
He has already produced several GTL series for next year. Dunno where he finds the time  Huh

I struggle a bit to give this the time it deserves and I will be working away even more next year
so every helpful suggestion is worth it's weight in gold pressed latinum

I will do what I can of course, but the more input members make the better it will be
It's no good carping about stuff you don't like if you don't make some creative sugestions
as well  yes

I like the occasional enduro - good idea.
I like the shorter series, except that is even more overhead for the admin (me) I am thinking of maybe 10 or 12
events per series?

I like the varying car choice, but that is the most time consuming thing to do
I like Alex' suggestion about not worrying too much about identical pace of cars. (that is a big help)

I am thinking 3 series to start with, similar meat to what has gone before - something for UK tracks, probably
with a cloth cap historic flavour. Something for big tanks, probably American north and south.
and a 3rd Enduro series for whatever works, probably sports cars but with changing cars

I think that if we want to attract new competitors we need to drop the attempt to seek out closely matched sets of cars.  That was fine for the mature v2 races but people just want to have a blast in v3!

I would forget hunting down new and obscure tracks also.  GamersCrib have filled servers with the standard tracks and wide car selections.  To begin with, who the hell cares if people gravitate towards BMWs, 911s and Capris?  A series for Yank Tanks could be good also and I can always take a week off when you want to race the Mini!

I would rather race here because of the quality of drivers and the sure and certain knowledge that I could bang in an incident report if I felt unjustly punted off.

3 alternate series sounds good as it caters something for everyone. Agree with Clive on not bothering with new and obscure tracks, people haven't got the time to learn yet another track each week plus there are so many good well known and popular tracks to use for any series.

One of the 3 series should definitely use the popular 70's cars and on tracks that they can be appreciated on. (Using the tracks from those in the 70's gt racing link would be great enough)
Not sure we need a dedicated yank tank series, why not just have them available in a general mix of 60's or 70's gt cars? Again that means there's something for everyone at every race.
Agree with others, don't waste too much of your own short time trying to find equal cars, just pick historic groups or batches of them, ie slow gt65, fast gt65 etc. also keep them year restricted to avoid big discrepancies in performance, braking etc.  ie only 1971 or older.

Using cool banners to promote the races works well too, ala Tony's series and we can then post up on no grip etc with them. Happy to source the odd photo and overlay the race series name/track name on it, when I can.
