[picnic]

Sorry just had my internet connection reset, should be ok now with a slightly reduced practice time

[PorcoRosso86]

Was just to inform, thanks a lot picnic

[picnic]

no worries mate - I've been known to be distracted in the past and missed it! Shout away

[Jeffrey]

Can't get 2 clean laps in a row, so I'm not gonna risk ending my own and somebody else's race early, like last week.

Seeign I can't make next week and I don't race at Nordschleife ever, might as well let the rest of the season go by, as I'm not enjoying these cars 1 bit  .

[Bob]

 The worst first lap EVER at SROUK. Worse than an online race, what's wrong with a bit of care on first lap? Absolute carnage will sit out rest of series!

[goldtop]

Fortunately I had a bad start so was near the back as we entered the first pinch point and was able to pick my way through the mess. Further around I got a bit too close to Matt and had to jam my brakes on which skewed me into the fencing causing too much suspension damage to continue.

Just can't seem to feel anything under braking in AC which makes it all a lottery for me so will probably not race it online again.

Unfortunately today I was the main starring of the crash. A first time for all.
Good start, wheel to wheel with ChrisR in third position. At the overpass stack, I decide to mantain a early apex, to attempt an overtake Chris instead mantain the late. Didn't see me that coming and close the trajectory in front me. Race finished.
Race accident, unfortunately happen. Him continue and I instead catched from the black hole near the overpass.
But anyway want to excuse for everyone involved.
Really but really sad. Good pace for me, good times, many expectations
Every of them destroyed at third corner.

[Simon Gymer]

Gotta say that was absolutely hilarious.

Never raced at this "circuit" before and took me a while, including during the race to learn it properly. By the end I think I was the 3rd or 4th quickest person.

Suffice to say I started last (a VERY good thing). I just let everyone crash in the first lap or so and then had a fight with Stefan for (what turned out to be) 3rd for most of the race. Was good fun thanks. Just got the better of you with on that final lap with a small mistake of yours and my fastest lap of the race!

Replay HERE.

[FullMetalGasket]

That was me in 3rd Simon 

I somehow picked my way through the carnage unscathed on L1 and ended up 4th or 5th.
Even after trying to topple a telegraph pole I maintained that spot 

Then with about 6 or 7 minutes to go I utterly missed my turn in point at T1. I had to teleport to the pits as the car was so utterly totalled and then found myself sat there for 2 whole minutes!
Eventually managed to leave and rejoined a few seconds ahead of MJ.

I ran an almost flawless race at Targa last night and a track with 7 bloody corners defeated me 

[Sutol]

Pick the bones out of that load of £$%&.

Seriously L1 was pathetic, sorry to Mark nudging you into the barrier when i was trying to avoid the pile up at the Bridge corner. Then after being Tboned by Matt as I was turning into the last corner, I didn't spot Bob as I re-entered the track. Sorry Bob, pint of best on its way to W Yorks

[Maikel K.]

Race was terrible for me aswell.

Strange as I just managed a great lap in quali which was about 2 seconds faster then my personal best and pole. Start was good as I missed out on all the carnage behind me, but I was slowing down to see what exactly happened as I didn't see anyone really coming out of it. After a few seconds I only saw 3 cars coming up behind me, so I was kinda expecting a restart or something since I thought everyone else just crashed 

Seems I just lost my pace about then though, ran wide, crashed, had a quick visit to the infamous farmers daughter and all that in only 2 laps 
Found out the track doesnt have a pitstop available aswell so I just quit.

Oh well, atleast I got that fastest lap in the bag 

[Manteos]

I don't want to be polemic, but this race should have been restarted.

If the target is to race like in real racing, this race should have been restarted after that carnage due to a red flag.

If the target of this champ is to provide fun for everybody this race also should have been restarted, cause it's impossible to have fun with these cars and heavy damage, that is not racing.

In any way you see the question, this race should have been restarted.

This time I confirm that you can cancel me from the list Jeff. I will come back when we will use again some car and tracks more suited to online racing. If we are not able to use them here at SROUK, which is a place renowned for the fairness of the drivers, I won't bother anymore to waste my time with these cars on deadly tracks like these. Judging by the last three races, we quite lost the challenge guys 

See you for the next champ

if the target is to race like in real life, why would the race be restarted ? we dont get restarts in real life..

the problem imo is simple, people are not prepared (or don't have time) to put the time effort into practise, just knowing where the track goes is not good enough, not with these cars, they are too unforgiving for that. you have to practise until you gain the required muscle memory to drive the cars with little thought.. as soon as you have to think about a corner you have already messed it up..
