Alright I put Jay and William on the Ligiers (this race only).

Thank you

By the way Jay, that'll be your second different car, out of 3 possible.

Okay thanks I am sorry I posted in the wrong place I will make a note for next time.

Nice lap Ruben, cool Brabham front row

I like the track

I like it too, plus it's kinda my home track as I go there every year

The lap wasn't especialy better than what I did at Mexico, but with a lot more braking zones and less easy fast curves where the fastest cars drive themselves, it makes a big difference.

In other words this track separates the men from the boys. Riiiiing. Pardon me, recess is over, back to kindergarten for me

Welcome back I was missing your company

The Larrousse team is very dissapointed for being so far away from the top times. We need a miracle

How much for missing my braking point in turn 1? Note: Only cash, no checks or whatever

I'll give you my Toshiba sponsor

Compared with what Gui would do to me, it's no contest I'll rather miss it as usual by mid race with nothing at stake and abandon in style

Another thing you can do which will not impact Gui's race is to send us two of your V10 Renault

Give me that Williams and I'll upgrade to 2nd grade. I beat "Lorenzo" with it

I must step down from this race, there´s still something not right with my computer and performance overall is appalling. I´m suspecting some problem with the graphic card, but atm pretty much everything runs like crap in my computer.

Untill yesterday I was practicing with wrong track, joy. Luckily Ben went to server to spot out this and saved Team Lotus from shame.

We thought we were on for a front row until we went on the server. ;____;

Hidding your game until the last moment eh ? That'll teach you

Bad news for me ... I'm writing this from my wife's PC. My graphics card, which had been giving problems lately has finally decided to die. I get corrupted graphics as soon as I boot my computer, making it effectively useless.

I won't be able to race until I fix this, and I won't hurry to the shop to throw away money for a new graphics card without first studying my options and eventually building a better rig.

Sorry to announce it so late. thrusday I got some freezes but thought it could have to do with traffic on the track/internet. It seems it wasn't and things have gotten worse

Heh, yes and no. This is new track for me so I wanted to learn it first before coming into server.

Whatever you decide to do, I'd STRONGLY advice NVIDIA card(s). I'm on ATI's for the first time and boy I'm disappointed with these.

(crossfire problems, bad fps, etc etc etc)

I've hooked up my laptop to have internet meanwhile and I have opened the case. Boy, what an amount of dirt, I had never seen anything like this I first thought about taking a picture, but it could later be used in court against me

Anyway, I have replaced the PSU with one I had bought for a PC I didn't get to build, and with a good clean up and the new PSU it seems to work again for now. I don't trust it much however, so I will be looking this week for a general upgrade, as the PC was quite aged already.

Dang Alberto, I did not REALLY want your Williams that bad (although I see the work of my dust Ninjas has been discovered).

I hope you get it fixed soon sir!
