Round 13 - Grand Prix of Houston (Oct 4th)

brush a tire barrier, bent wheel.

Great battles with JP and Rocky, i was looking good for a podium. Never mind, that's racing

Hopefully i can join you all again at Cleveland as Matthias will be back to claim his car.

Merci Mathieu de m'avoir coûté la victoire. A quasiment chaque course, tu te retrouves sur 3 roues, et à chaque fois tu essayes de réparer. Bah là, j'ai pas pu pitter puisque t'avais pris la place, j'ai donc fait un drive through pour rien parce que t'essayais encore une fois de remettre une roue qui n'allait jamais revenir.

Entre ceux qui captent que dalle, ceux qui trichent avec une consommation étonnamment basse ou un grip sorti de nulle part, j'en ai plein le cul de ces courses.

Results are up; points in progress

It was a pleasure racing with you, Richard.

A very demanding race, enjoyed it!

Tu consommais combien, JP ?

Moi, j'étais à 3l 3.2l/t
Un plein m'a fait 40 t

En essais, j'ai fait plusieurs tests en boost à 1, et je tombais en panne en finissant le 48e tour (=2.8L / t, mais le chrono s'en ressentait fortement). Certaines personnes ( ) ont fait 51 tours (soit 8 km de plus !) les doigts dans le nez, et encore il pouvait pousser le boost pour faire le meilleur tour en course. A Toronto y'a eu la même chose, à Vancouver et Nazareth d'autres choses suspectes. Enfin, tant que les admins laissent faire, c'est pas grave.

Points are up.  Interesting developments:

Rocky now leads the Drivers Championship by one point.

Honda now leads the Engine Manufacturers cup over Cosworth.

The Nations Cup is tied between France and the USA.

Well, what would have been really interesting, is if admins took actions when some people crashed others on purpose for the win. Or if the admins were decided to use something like rf_scan. Now THAT would be interesting. What will be interesting too is the first corner at Cleveland.

Screengrabs are up

The screenshots in this championship are epic, the cars look so realistic an detailed ...

I love the shot of the top 3 entering turn 2

Yes nice shots, the one with JP all wheels locked isn't bad either ^^

ma conso 2.6 l / tour boost 3
mais j avais pas ta cadence...
normalement 51 tour couvert sans l 'intervention divine d'un certain bresilien....
mais bon c est que la cinquieme fois que je me fais decouper
boost sur 3..... evidemment impossible de resister en ligne droite...
par contre que l on puisse tricher !!!!!!
j avoue que ca me perturbe pas mal......
si il existe des supports pour confirmer tes soupçons.............reste plus qu a exploiter

et oui pour le coup ........... il me semblerait logique que quelques sanction soit appliquer...
mais bon cela n est que mon avis

cour se sympa tout de meme j etais dans le rythme de gerard vu sa position a l arrivee... ca aurait pu payer

merci tout de même messieurs les admins pour ces championnats excellents

en commentaire a tes messages JP

''certain brasilien'' Lephive give me alone, you complaint like a fool kid

And I no have time for practice this race, my life is much is more than virtual races, Martinelli lost point of brake and HIT My car at lap 3, broken my suspension , my car has became a s*** and i retire 4 laps after. I dont aunderstand Lephive complaint, this guy rehashing things since Michigan. Cold the your head. and buy un croissant dans une boulangerie

I thought your car was sh** in practice

@Pascal : disons que si tu économises à mort, tu peux toujours gagner en conso, mais la pénalité en temps sur un tour est assez conséquente, si tu veux tenir un rythme convenable.
Là, y'a un tas de trucs qui collent pas, et depuis le début de la saison. Enfin on verra.

JP, Did I have to know what you know? I have to guess your setup, I to inside your brain to know how was your car? If your car was good, good for you. My car was bad, so what?

I have questions:

1- You living my life?

2- live my life outside of the virtual races?

3- You going for my work?

4- You pay my things, light, house, car, family, my food?

So then do not criticize other people's things if you do not know.

Philippe I am positive he is joking with you.

Moi aussi, Pascal, à tel point que je ne sais plus quoi penser, ni quoi dire.... si ce n'est que je tombe de (très) haut. Moi qui pensais naïvement, apparemment, qu'HSO serait la dernière communauté où cela pourrait se produire.
Désillusion, grosse désillusion. J'aimerai tant que tout cela ne se vérifie pas, ceux qui ont été à l'origine d'HSO, qui ont bossé sans compter, ceux qui ont repris le flambeau, pour notre plaisir, ne méritent pas ça.

Ceci dit, on s'est bien amusé à Houston, à jouer à celui qui restera vivant le plus longtemps !

Nous ne voulons pas de décisions hâtives, mais nous travaillons à une solution. Ayez confiance.

It was not for you Philppe Hnrique,     sorry  

It was Gianluca , and he’s Italian, I thought he was brasilian.  

Sorry for him.

Apologize accepted  Gianluca  


I had nothing to say against you for this race Henique

I didn’t see you at all during it  

Very nervous you are, isn’t it ?

Keep cool  Philippe and take "cold head"

Not pleasant this agressivity Philippe

Keep it to race and finish it



Be a gentleman driver could be a good way in the life like in virtual

I apologize for that, accept your apology. i like your explanation. I will take the advice to keep a ''cold head''.

So what good wine you indicate? or champagne, Chandon (?) with good bread?

@ all of you full of apologies (including myself too often)

Im starting to be bored to myself.

Organised - unofficial - non mandatory - test races!!! Every evening from xx.xx hrs to yy.yy hrs. Including aliens. Racing against rookies, amateurs and enthusiast, like myself, is danger for all, not just for later ones. Short sprint-fun races, with starts, pit entry/exits, 10-20laps top, so we can have 2-3 per evening (or declared day/s).. no point in full lenght test race - we need to practice behavior and specifics on the track. well have less bitter discusions.
