Coming from a hockey crazed nation its sort of a releif....gives me a chance to appriciate other sports...by the looks of things canada will be lucky to make it to playoffs this year, were not looking to strong we've lost a few exbition games to college teams :(
The one Saturday this month that I will be home, and Timber decides he needs to come here so I can install a new HD and Vid cards for him. Around 1 pm. or so......
something ingame, not sure yet porbably the sr3 252hp.....anyone have the t2l dtm 07-10 installed from nogrip? will run on croft again 2 x 20min races so its not too painful for knight in a rwd ;)
Maybe so, but to be fair this started as a Clio BTCC support series, and to move to these cars is to move away from the idea of a car that might have been a BTCC support car to something completly different...One race a week in my comfort zone, is now two races a month. Ah well don't get me wrong it's all fun, and I am going to give it my best shot
As fun goes...this is at the lower end of the spectrom I don't like these cars, view and will never be competative in them. At least next time my pit stops will be set D'oh.
this sat at noon we will be using STCC 2 the game and running at FDM Jyllandsringen (Denmark)
10 qualifying
2 x 30 min races
open pit window
its available on steam for $3.99 for those of you that dont have it, looks to me that majority do!
Iam also gonna see if i can increase the tire and fuel consumption :)
You are a sick sick man, Kurupt! That track is a windy beast! my lap times are so bad I won't even bother to post. I think i spent most of the time in 2nd gear and maybe got to 5th on the main straight for about 2 seconds. So much turning and shifting on a track that looks like it can barely handle 2 cars side by side. You are just a twisted man indeed.
That being said, can't wait to trade lots and lots of paint this saturday.
Once you get the flow of the track it becomes quit fun and youll realize your times are a lot faster than the ai :)
I was running a stock tune in the BMW and opels for my testing...just I slight tire pressure change and brake adjustment but should be fun :)
30 minute race on this track is gonna run probably about 24-26 laps! I tried to run a 12 lap race against the AI and I was getting dizzy. Damn you Kurupt!
Damnit, had race one sown up when a stop and go sent me to the back, fought like mad but had to be happy with qualifying first...first time ever. Second race never quite got my groove on, messed up the start...being in gear is a good tip. Quietest races ever LOL
Sorry for the bumps church :) i was getting bumped around for thefirst few corners and decided to give some bumps back to who ever i saw first lol thought you were the ai cause i didnt see your lights :)
Oh yeah, well done Neverender, and with Helios breathing down your neck as well.
I was starting to get the hang of the E46 by race 2.
I need to stop avoiding contact at all costs under all circumstances. I took myself out on the last lap going into the first hard left (T3, T4?) by swerving to the right to avoid Neverender's rear bumper under braking, and put 2 wheels in the grass.....around she went. If I had held my line and just leaned on his back bumper a little, we both would've come off the corner for one hell of a barn-burner of a last lap. Oh well, it was fun running him down. I seemed to be a bit stronger in the last 3rd of the stints, better tire wear most likely.
Thanks everybody, as much as i complained about this track I took second and first in the two races today. I was just in the zone I guess, or maybe the second monitor really helped me out.
Church you cheeky monkey! I saw you pit after me and leave before me and I was like WTF! But I changed all 4 tires to you changing only 2. I think if we had a few more laps I could have gotten past you. I was close a few times but didn't want to press my luck and hit you, causing us both to spin.
Maybe I am getting the hang of this racing stuff after all.
I miss hockey!
So what we running then?
Good question...probebly the huge helmets...
Lol

Don't have that myself...By the way, have I ever mentioned how much I hate RWD?

Just make sure its not in the rain and can I have TCS please!
Good racing guys!
2 wins

Wish I could have made it but spent the day shopping for furniture and then to the mall. Would have much rather been racing with u lot.

I'll be in either a BMW or Scirocco.
Oh what a pig of a track LOL this is going to be interesting, and yes I suspect a fair amount of paint trading could go on.

That Sig is awesome Kurupt
Good racing guys.
Really enjoyed race 1 !!

Congrats Neverender on your first win here!!!!
Sorry for the bumps church :) i was getting bumped around for thefirst few corners and decided to give some bumps back to who ever i saw first lol thought you were the ai cause i didnt see your lights :)
No worries Kurupt I had to go and assit the wife in "operation go the fuck to sleep" anyway.
Love the First race. Only reason why I piped it from Never was due to my "Short" pit stop
Although the last 2 laps I was drifting lol
