CART 1998 - Portland 200 [Nov 16th]

The server is up, have a good qual everyone

I'll qualify myself saturday.

You can follow the standings with the hotlap link in the first post of this topic

Wow that went well! Found a very minor tweak that finally let me power slide the car when decelerating.

Thank you to the speed demons for good passing. Damn Greg & Austin are red rockets!!!

Somehow managed to get DQ'd near end of the session, I hope this wont affect my time from tonights session.

Was very pleased to get into the 58's

See you on saturday for the next session

Was hoping to break the minute barrier but couldn't, too tired today after work and gymn. I did two best laps in exactly 1.0.84, that's regularity but also my limit ... for today Hopefully saturday will be better

Some guys closed the radiators too much and smoked the follower, not nice with such fast cars that James Bond style thing so be sure you open it for the race

Those 58ers are bullets. Only better thing is 57 I think I reached my limit today.
Hope saturday wont bring 20 59niners

see you sunday, hopefully.

I spun in the last corner, and I drove up the grass along the wall that separates the grass from the drag strip, was about to turn around and got DQ'd

Ok that's good to know.

En répétition pour la Q1 de ce soir, en concert pour la Q2 de samedi !

Chef, je pourrai quand même partir en fond de grille dimanche ?

Oui

Merci !

Being the chief of the Ganassi Team, I congratulate my both drivers.

You're just a jealous guy.

Me! Never!

Pas mal de souci de qualité de connexion hier soir pour moi suite à des défaillances locales de Free constatées dans ma région depuis quelques temps.

Les voitures clignotaient, disparaissaient, revenaient, etc....manifestement le pb venait de chez moi.

J'ai donc écourté la séance et surtout évité de gêner les autres.

Malheureusement je ne pourrais pas vérifier si c'est mieux samedi soir étant indisponible.

Donc je verrais dimanche soir si ma connex est stable, à défaut de quoi je ne prendrais pas le départ...

Oh dear, looks like I can't make qualifying

Prepare yourselves, midfielders - I'm coming through!!

*That is, if I'm allowed to race of course

arrfff toujours pas compris le mode d emploi complet de ces voitures et surtout leurs reglages , faut dire que c est du violent c est rageant de sentir que le potentiel est la mais de ne pas arriver a le concrétiser , je pense qu un 57.7 est tout a fait envisageable voir un peu mieux

Il n'y a pas besoin d'essayer si difficile Greg ! Au moins laisser le reste d'entre nous ont la chance ou à vous suivre !

Désolé pour hier soir, je serai là samedi soir sans faute, bien que cela ne changera pas grand chose à la place que j'occuperai sur la grille...  Je serai surement à 3 ou 4 secondes (ou +) des 0'57" que cherche à atteindre notre speedy Greg

oh non je ne les atteindrai pas car y a 95 pour cents de chance que je sois absent samedi soir et d ici la pas le temps de rouler .

d ailleurs aux connaisseurs de ce mod , comment se passe les courses ? faut pitter ( si oui combien de fois ) ? le boost faut le mettre sur combien ? j accepte tous conseils , merci

You can probably finish the race on full boost but fuel will not make it. 2 pits required I am guessing.
