UKPnG Season 2 - Classic Cup - Oran Park (GP) - Apr 29

[Mark J]

dammit, 2nd race in a row ive had to pull out of because of complete stutter melt down  

Enjoyed good early battle with CLive and Pribeiro, but then API went off ahead and the resulting dust cloud seem to make my fps drop to nothing and i couldnt continue, so pulled off the track  :'(

Think ive got an overheating problem. This Pc is just about goading me into a replacement !

Unlucky Mike, that really sucks at season end.

Mike we are not using any skinpacks, these are the standard PnG cars.

Had an ok start and was following Matt into the fast chicane after the bridge when he got a massive slide on and i hit his rear. Stopped and waited but the next lap got a tankslapper on before last corner and damaged front and rear ends in the barriers. Wsnt handling well, weaving down straights and was 13secs down on next person with not much fun for the rest of the race.

Unlucky Mike/MJ, seemed like there were a few gremlins tonight. Just a tinternet thing I guess

Good race Had a few duels with 914's and gotta say they didn't find it easy, very tricky for them to follow the fezza and L88 I think. Got clobbered once (no worries Marco) and tapped a few times but also saw some fly off rather than hit me. Very tricky combo to race but hope you gents had as much fun as me.

Another last lap engine blow up Congrats Bonni, Ade and Geoffers. Thanks Legzy and those behind the scenes for some great fun. Cyu all next season

p.s. Team KC do rather rule

Sigh, two races in a row where I get pushed round and have the opportunity to try to fight back up the field  
That wasn't a massive slide, that's how this thing steers  
Anyroad up, made a good start for a change, passed a few off the line, then turned left into T1 err but there was a fence in the
way... it was the other part of the track before the actual T1   That was why I was off track and got out of positition
Chased TT for a while till he fell off, then managed to stay in front until the flag despite falling of a bit myself.
Awkward track for the cars I thought, jolly good fun all the same.
My engine health started at 28% and got down to 23 within a few laps, I started short shifting, and consequently going slower
and ended the race on 20%. Bit fragile the high spirited Italian motors I guess.

EDIT: I understand why i turned left too soon, I was following Clive! good feint sir!

[Madd-RIP]

PnG crashed again and I couldn't rejoin in time, thinks that's the final nail in the coffin as far as my further participation goes, at least for some time anyways.
Such a shame as I found the 914 very good fun here too.

Hope you all have some good future racing.

TinMan - what car and car number were you using? Anyone else using the same car?

Mike have you tried if you can start a practice session offline with the same car as TinMan?
I had the same problem in Mara some time ago and found out that I had some missing files for  the car that didn't want to load online and the game kept crashing offline.
Ciao

Results & Replay in the usual places

Please could someone let me know the driver name of "Paduano" so that I can add his name to the results/standings.

Not THAT kind of attention Clive 

[Geoffers]

Happy with my first podium this season, even though it was only because Ginsters blew his engine on the final lap  , bad luck Ginsters.

First half of the race was full of action with several 914s trying to pinch my 6th place. First API until he went off, then Goldtop until Tinman past him & finally Tinman who got past when I made a mistake at the downhill esses. We ran quite close for several laps until we caught Manteos who seemed to be having handling problems. Unfortunately it ended when Manteos lost control at the downhill esses & finished up in the middle of the track. Tinman couldn't avoid Manteos & I couldn't avoid Tinman. We sorted ourselves out & resumed in the same order but both the others went off at the next corner & I carried on, minus front bumper, now in 4th.

Ran the rest of the race alone but nearly threw it away on lap 31 when I ran too wide into T1 & finished up in the gravel trap. Luckily had enough time to rejoin before PR came along & lucked into 3rd with Ian's demise on the last lap.  

Congrats to Bonni & Ade

My daughter really didn't want to go to sleep last night so had to miss this race 
Was really hoping for some fun with the 914.

It looks like you all had a fun time yesterday

Again I didn't practice at all any lap, therefore I chosed the supposed easy car to drive.
With no time to practice aswell at the practice session, I went for only a couple of laps at qualifying.
Can't really remember the time, but I had set the 16th place. Didn't bother much as I couldn't done any more laps before race (family, family, family.........).

Race was fantastic with close fighting with Mark, API, Clive and Goldtop. Thank you guys.

Absolutely happy with the final 4th place.

Congrats to the podium and well done to all finishers.

Huge thanks and congratulations also for Legzy and his stunning work during the season.

Cheers
