Round 1 - Lucerne 100 - Edmonton

*sigh* Best start of a race... (irony off)
I don't know who just spun there, it went all on too fast... I got a good start (Well in comparison to e.g. Mick) but there was a big smoke cloud and a car sideways... Somehow the damage model managed to give both my rear tyres a puncture although it was a frontal impact...
At this point I want to thank Yves Placais for the try to get my car running again by pushing me on the track as I was trying to reverse on the track but, well, without air in the rear tyres, it doesn't work... Well in the end my engine blew up..
Conclusion from my side: Shortest race I ever raced
Good Luck anyways to those who survived the start and have a nice race!

Ah Yves, merde qui se passe! Ce n'est pas un problème. conduire la prochaine course!

Sorry i couldn't react, just looked on my RPM and the right lane seemed to be clear, then i looked up an smashed into Yves  

Then the rest of the field slammed into me...

Tried to go on, but both front tires flat an suspension broken, then i got stuck on the left "barrier" in turn 2.

Right after i freed myself my engine was gone  

Penalty(drive through........I thought it said) for speeding exiting pitlane, Though I had red light displayed top left, so figure it was a stop and go.....did that, but still there so pitted again and stopped, (no refueling) counter stayed at zero, so counted 10 seconds, well more to allow the pack to pass again......red lights still there do got DQ !!??

conection lost

Aaaaalright, seems that I blew the engine. Bummer, I felt my podium was secure. Great battling up until then. I really like my Elfin. You can really put it wherever you like on track. It's down on power though, which showed today. Still, fun stuff, I just have to learn not to over-strain the engine next time.

Matthias, could it be that you were the one car that was sideways on the right lane?

Finishing 8th is not bad, but i lost 2 place on the last lap. I damaged my car 5 laps before finish as i was distracted by Ray getting in the gras. So I lost it in the last turn before the pits and had to give up my chase for Vincent who was 5th at that moment. A little bit disappointing. Hope to do it better next round.

P9 in qualy, not enough time for a better lap.

I had a great start and shot into P3, watching Jose&Greg battle each other.

Was rather safe until my got sideways shifting up, and somehoe lightly touched the barrier and lost the nose.

While I went back to the pits, someone had to punt me off, not fun.

I came back and raced as hard as I could not to get lapped.

I went off-track one lap and the game discounted it even though I returned to the track without cutting anything off!

Can someone look at it and get me that lap back? Would be a lost 10th place for me

Nothing to be done against Greg, he was just that tiny bit better than me. Jose too, shame for his disco

Raul, you have 3 mn to come, I relaunched

Ben, you are most kind!

I think I have same problem as Jacob had, after being idle for some time, game just crashes..
And I found out my notebook is full of viruses... (I am moveing rf to better cofiguration, since my PC is just quiting), and maybe that caused it...

And the race, well, I though that the green flag Charly is vaweing is a start, but got drive-through penalty, which left me alone on the track, so, no much fun. But, result is ok, with some help from my friends, P10 is more than expected...

Wasn't sure if it had been you, but in your defense, I kinda had to lower my speed a lot, the car really wouldn't turn without the nose(just a light touch with the pitwall and it was gone, great )

Nevermind, I threw my race away on my own, no problem.

@Raul: Shouldn't have me let through, I was battling for position with you! I can send any files to prove I had never been lapped by Greg

Results are update, not still the standings.

great race all, really happy to be able to see the finish line.

david, i think there are 2 possible spots on the track that would "take a lap" that i encountered in practice. the first being the left sweeper after the right/left chicane. right after the corner is where the line is between sector1 and sector2. if the car goes wide in that turn, and not back to "beside" the track before the "sector line" it wont count it as a lap, it will show as one lap having a 1:40s sector1. other possibility is if really close to the pit in it wont "score" the lap as valid but not sure if it would count in the race.

fun race all, looking forward to the next one!

@David: Yeah, I went into the chicane too hot while trying to stay ahead of Greg and went off there

Isn't there a file that I can sent to prove my statement and maybe adress it in the results?

Well, I had no gap reading for you, being so close, and my position status remaind when you passed, and you were much faster than me.. I have very bad picture in my virtual mirrors, so its kind of frustrating without knowing what is exact distance and position... so, it was a win-win situation

Course passionnante avec Jan qui revenait sur moi en fin de course.

Va falloir trouver un meilleur set, je suis 1 sec au tour plus lent qu'il y a 4 ans sur la même voiture c'est beaucoup... mais je ne me fais pas d'illusion, c'est le bonhomme qui a pris un coup de vieux.

@Ben: C'est Nick Mason ? C'est toi qui a fait la photo?

Yep, c'est Nick dans une de ses voitures.
Malheureusement non, ce n'est pas moi qui l'ai faite, je l'ai trouvé par hasard en cherchant.

sorry but couldn't make it

Great battle José , well done

*** Modification in final standings ***

After control, the race results and standings are modified.
Indeed, the server forgot a lap to David Jundt.
Twice 19th laps, caused by missing sector 1 marker, after a too wide turn.

David only had to spend 2 hours in the admin "service" room "pleading" his case.

the server is 91.121.135.76:34400?
