It was Quebec tagged me going through s curves. But I swear it felt like lag in than BOOM Jason Hanson kicks me though the up-rights for the score... LMAO
looked @ reply doesnt look as if he hit me tho.....
Yea, we had a couple people lagging in the room last night. I noticed Ink and LHR jumping around a little bit, not much to make too much of a difference to me. I know someone got knocked out by Ink's lag. Maybe it was just the night. We'll see. Maybe we can do a lag test next week.
Well if I destracted ne1 I appoligize. I live in Ohio, we had some krazy weather here last few days.... OR maybe it deals with the fact my cheap azz dont have internet and i get it for free from someone too stupid the lock it up... NEWAYZ I want too appoligize too you gentlmen who was effected by my lag.
Your alright LHR. I usually don't have a problem with you. Weather could have been a big effect on your race. I usually don't have an issue with Ink either. Like I said, we'll do a lag test prior to the next race. If everyone can get on at least 10 mins before race time.......Ink..........Kraigger............to name a few who got on at race time..........or LATE!!!! And I get yelled at and punted right to Veteran when Im even a min late to the Yaris cup.
Add Parcells to the list of a Euro timeslot. Could make both easily enough but sure a Euro time will be easier to make. Sounds like race one was pretty entertaining!
@Cooter - if I recall correctly, bumping you to veteran was more a function of your reputation as a fast driver than you being late... Just saying. :-)
speaking of that, is there a way too offer a wider variety of handicaps? might be cool to have 5 different levels of power reduction?
has there ever been a system where the results of the previous race dictate what handicap will be put on racers for the next race? to me this idea makes sense for a series like this where the prizes are pretty damn good for winning the championship for example:
1st: handicap +5%
2nd:handicap + 3%
3rd:handicap +2%
4th - 5th: handicap +0%
6th - 8th: handicap -2%
8th - 12th: handicap -3%
12th - 16th: handicap -5%
DNF = no change.
so it would work as follows for race #2
1st: cooter: handicap = 5+5 = 10%
2nd: nasties: handicap = 15+3 = 18%
3rd: xxxxxx: handicap = 0+2 = 2%
4th: xxxx: handicap = 0+0 = 0%
.......
6th: xxxxxx: handicap = 5-2 = 3%
and so on.
and so on. I dont have the results infront of me, but hopefully I explained this idea well enough to convey it. I think this would result in the best racing, and it would keep sandbagging at bay. I think we got a good baseline out of the first race to start from as well. but if things were a bit skewed this system should even it all out during the season.
again just an idea, not trying to take this deal over, just sharing some thoughts. that was a great race last night......
Its Vagina Face to you mister. Yes, what your saying makes sense. But handicap intervals are set to 5% intervals. And you can't get positive handicap. Also buckets are limited to 4. That I'm aware of. Thus why I did: No handicap, 5%, 10%, and 15%. Unless I experiment with the grip handicap. But the issue I see with a grip handicap is say your in a group with a 5% HP and a 5-10% grip handicap, not only will you come out slower than everyone, you'll be more apt to slide into people. And we saw how close the groups got at times during the race. Could you imagine taking those "S" Curves on last night's race with a 10% handicap on grip? Can you say carnage? Maybe you and I can get together some time soon prior to the next race and tweek things and see what works the best for handicaps. I don't want to make it too complex. But I do want to keep it a close race where anyone can win. Not just a select few people who just so happen to be more experienced at the game. I was also just thinking about maybe adding a delayed start to the faster buckets by say 5 sec intervals or something along those lines. Not only would they be running handicap, but they would be delayed start, which would also help with 1st-3rd corner carnage. I don't know, We'll see. More idea's are welcome. If you guys like it the way it is let me know too. I'm all ears, unless your my wife. Then it's Charlie Brown *waaaw waaw waw waaaw waw waw*.
Boy guys do you see that ROOKIE in 2nd place? He did a good job with a top 10 finish and not a DNF,,,, who was the few that couldnt hang with all of us.. LOL Nah on the side note I did have a much better race and time with ALL 2O4F than I did previous Club. Thank you for inviting me in to this wonderful Car Family...
When did you get punted LHR? I'll take a look at the replay.
Check the original post for my Youtube video as an intro for the series. Good racing tonight guys.
Nasties you were giving me a run for my money at the end there. Good close finish.
Great race tonight. That yellow/orange Penzoil car looks sweet out in front!

im not that fast. if im fast, kraigger should be considered super veteran

what is the points structure?
It'll actually be similar to the Super Mario Kart for the SNES type structure.

I'd really like to take part in the next few races if you still have room.
Sure Moto. Which list do I add you to? Euro or US?
Can we get an A class Porsche 911 Sport Class Circuit
We can in the future.....but you have to remember that not all people own the Porcshe DLC. Thus why I made my series a car that anyone can get.
