In the order of occurrence, you + Gizzie + Parcells + Cobra = 4 :-)
That counts Parcells as 2
It was indeed 4 Gizzie, Parcells Cobra and me as Cobra was holding me up as i did not have a handicap, until i pulled off a late dive into the chicane on the 9th lap.
The racing was so close at all times. Loving this series

Well done Gizzie
Sigh...(Parcells = 2) + Gizzie + Cobra=4
Jeez, and I hate to rub it in Max, but you weren't mentioned. Parcells bad I guess....
OK, I get it now but since its not the least bit funny no million credits to anyone. Max was certainly the fourth in Gizzie's parade and lets not forget about Fitzy as he made it 5 people Gizzie was holding up when Fitzy recovered from his earlier off and caught up to us.

On the contrary, Max would be 5 and Fitzy would be 6. I thought you got it?
On behalf of team , I would like to reward Gunny
1 M i i i i i i i i i llion Credits.
Gunny, put a cheap car up in the AH for 1M cr with a 24 hr buyout and send me a PM. I will pick it up tomorrow evening.
for the first time I saw a race from room A. a big THANKS to brntguy!!!!!!!!! I have to say:
GREAT racing. Not only for the JDRT, but there is much to learn for youngsters: fair racing, space giving, fun talk during the race, pure competition, defensive racing par excellence,...... and I have to admit: It looks good too see three race cars from one team in a row. Those Piston heads cars are looking good, but I like our JDRT-cars and their designs too!
JDANKERT
PS: @brntguy: The voice in that FM commercial is that the guy from this english tv-motorshow, which name I forgot just in this minute?

News flash - team piston head under investigation after it came to light that one of their cars is driven by two people.
FMmotorsport were quoted as saying " after using a special algorithm to determine if this give team piston heads an advantage the results came back as - meh, we later found out the the program was written my parcels so we set fire to the computer and cooked hotdogs over the flames "

Hahahahahaha!!!
( I just got some looks at work boyz!!!)
Made my morning Monkey! If you ever need a garage to squat, let me know!
Apologies for the poor showing from me on Sunday , just got back off hols , still jet lagged , one of my boys changed contoller layout as a joke, then bumped into the side of Fitzy(apologies) and gave up.Will be back for the next round
As advised by my coaches, just watched room B's replays on Grims store front. I owe serveral appologies to folks for either getting bumped or messed up due to my early braking. I'm sorry. I really hope my fanatec's will atleast assist me a bit better. The cheapo pedals I have now are all or nothing.
Again, If you were got by Gunny in one way or another, sorry!
@gunny and @grim: All humans are learning from mistakes! And you know what? As the driver who is behind - for the most part of last 15 months that was JDANKERT - I can tell you, that it is my fault, if I bump into someone. If I am too near or too fast, it's my mistake. Often I only had to wait for a better chance to overtake. It's all about patience. And if I am behind "new guys" I am very carefull, but there are other's tactics out there.
There is one point I have to make for the sunday races: There was a very special team result. Look:
Ditto on that one JDan. Fitzy and I started 1-2 on the grid, got through turn one cleanly and all we had to do was hold it together. KC started near the back and not until lap 9/10 did we realize he might be able to make it a podium sweep. So Fitzy and I "encouraged KC" to pick up the pace and I don't think he made it into third until the last sector of the last lap. Now that I think about it KC may have been making it more exciting for the fans??, we may never know.

You know me, always sandbagging .
A couple laps after I got into 4th place I realized it was possible to get 3rd place. Then I just went into chase mode & caught jonny at the start of the last lap & immediately started to pressure him. After that I just took advantage of the fact that I didn't have a handicap @ the only spot where you can safely attempt a pass on infineon without a mistake from the other driver.
"Due to his opposition to the 2001 changes to the Hockenheimring, which in his opinion ruined a once great circuit, Derekthetree is declining to race in this Sunday's Leon Supercup. Rumour has is that he will spend his week off recupurating on the island of Cyprus and possibly commentating on the race for Al Jazeera.
He is expected to return for training on his home circuit of Silverstone the following week."
Wouldn't that be 4? I'm just saying...
What are you guys referring to?
I dunno, who's asking?
Next up Hockenheimring National Circuit
OMG Turn 1 will be FUN in this car!
1 million credits to anyone who can explain to Parcells what is so funny about this string of comments???
Lol! Well played Sir, well played!
That counts Parcells as 2

If you have to explain it, it never is...That's why Ciletti's on the team...

PS: Which laptimes did you guys made?
Yes that is Jeremy Clarkson from Top Gear.
to run competitively you had to run about a 1.43.0, fastest I ran was a 1.41.9 without handicap
