UKGTR Season 6 Lower Endurance - Sugo (Classic) - Dec 2

[psuedo]

Yet another very frustrating night.

The first start being aborted left me on pole for the second start....couldn't see the lights...didn't know where to even look for them ...so must have jumped it and got a stop go....race over basically...you can't do much about making places back in those conditions without waiting for people to fall off, and it obviously makes it a lot easier for lapping/passing cars to shove  unfortunately bump into you and knock you off.

So knowing there was no way I could be quicker than anyone, in the hardest handling car there in those conditions, I decided to quit yet again, as I had absolutely no interest in just running around being lapped.

Grats to anyone making it to the end.

Well that was bloody f*****g brilliant. Utterly pissed off again.

These add-on tracks are buggy as hell and need to be remove IMO. Alot of people get CTD's, disco's and freezes.

I was doing well during the race untill all cars disappeared, probably for everyone as I heard over Team Speak. When they re-appeared I hit a stationary car and got flown into the gravel with a puncture. No way to get out safely and had to quit.

Quite possible another championship shot due to this farce.

After all the Adria and Sugo problems, please don't use add-on tracks ever again.

Don't know if you waited for me to come up Paul, but in that case it was a very fair move!!! Wasn't really necessary but an amazing gesture

Lap 21.... all cars dissappeared whilst following a overtaking P Allnutt/Picnic over the brow of the start finish straight, so decided to ditch the car after what happened in previous warm up!

[Roadrunner]

Think it was about lap 21 when everyone dissappeared for me as well...Briefly had an M3 reappear on s/f strait which i missed, only to get discon 3 corners later ..made more annoyin by the fact i was slowly but surely catching Simon, but thats life...Was a good race uptil then

[Simon Gymer]

Ho hum. Leading the race and 12 minutes left, connection lost. The server was dropping people like flies. Something very wrong with the game tonight I'm afraid. Cars kept dissappearing every now and then and people were one by one being picked off by the server Grim Reaper. 

Quite enjoyed the wet and got my tyre choice just about spot on.

See what happens from the moderators, but I think it might be a good idea to call the result null and void.

[psuedo]

Don't suppose the extreme weather, everyone having lights on and a buggy track is a great combination.

[pribeiro]

As for the addon tracks, i´ve been doing a lot of races, even with diferent mods, and i
never had problems, seems to be only with Sugo (at least for me).
When i was in 6th overall and leading my class for +- 40 seconds, i lost connection  :'(
That is really a huge  frustration  
When i saw a wet track, i felt a bit happy and with a lots of hope for my Z3
finish in a good place, but that disco......hmmmmm.......maybe a sabotage....hahahahaheheh
was fun while it last, i hope i let the GT2 and GTC guys pass me easy in the begining  

Cheers

Same with me Simon, and about the same time. Would have been a hollow victory anyway after what happened to Jeff, so not that unhappy in the circumstances.

I wish I could say I did wait, but the fact was the front was a complete mess given the different speeds of the cars and drivers. I was just trying to avoid nurfing one of those in front of me off, so it wasn't surprising that we got caught up quite quickly.

[pribeiro]

I have an idea. Lets keep the start positions to the finish results
You know i´m joaking 

[John]

What a waste of time that was.

Quali went well,i surprised myself and got pole.
After moaning how crap the M3 was on this track.

Start of the race went pear shape though.
Lights went green and i gently pulled away.
Only to look behind and see everyone still sitting on the line.
I slowed to about 15mph for everyone to catch up,then out of no where i got rammed off the track and watched cars shooting off into the distance.
I rejoined and got rammed again.

Restart of race was disappointing as i had to start 11th,but managed to get to 2nd place after a couple of laps and was behind TT.
I thought i was in for an easy race,then TT started to pull away and Simon was catching fast.
Couldn't understand where they got there speed from until i checked my tyre temps.
Not one tyre was over 50 degrees in temp.
Then realised i tested with hard wets in practice and forgot to change them.
I decided to stay out for 15 Min's before changing them,which cost me in a few errors.
I came in,topped up my fuel and changed to soft wets.
I came out in about 14th and started to cut through the field.
My lap times suddenly came down from 1.36s and 37s to 1.33s with a full tank.
I started thinking that i could still win this.
I was closing in on the top 6 and none of them had pitted,and none were lapping as fast.
Then it all went to pot and i lost connection.
Very gutted and frustrated.

I hated wet races,but then again i never really gave them a chance.
But after my performance I'm all for them now.
Glad i decided to race,because i was gonna watch Bad Boys 2.
Thats twice these season Ive had a lost connection.
Maybe i should get my internet speed increased.
Or is just Virgin

[Andy Eves]

I was hit twice on the first start...I could see every one fine.

Restart I braked late then made contact with a car, who I think may have been pushed wide, but iam not sure but we both went into the gravel. Sorry if it was my fault.

From there I made up loads of places, I think I was up to 11th before I put it back in the gravel, but this time further off.

Then The cars started to disapear, and you all left... but in the confusion I hit a wall so back to the pits.

Connection loss after that as well.

[Jeffrey]

There are some good add-on tracks, but most are made by some people who just convert stuff and don't look at anything.

Maybe check with other leagues and see which add-ons they used and which didn't give problems (with the use of weatherfiles etc.)

[Finn]

What a difficult race.

I don't know if I was visible for everybody but there were several way too questionable moves. Personally I had a moment around lap 26 or 27 following S-P-G through Turn Last and he went invisible to emerge after T2 or so. I hope I didn't hit you then. Nevertheless I survived the race.

Grats winners!

I agree Jeff

Thought maybe GT3 race would still count as we were all in there. Then PR got discoed and that was end of that as a real race. Good strategy saw me past Madd and then it ruddy put me behind him in results anyways .

Still, worse things happen at sea. To be honest I've seen enough of Sugo now and would rather see it replaced, or scrapped rather than go through that again. And thanks for the fun at start Dave.

All a bit like the national that never was that
