Round 13 - Monza

Man it is a pisser having to wait 3 weeks until the next race. Unless... the scheudle changes because you drop the M1's?

Congrats Othmane, I hear you are winning the race by a lightyear.

Sorry Kimmo but the schedule won't change. All sundays are booked until the end of the year. If you like this mod, why not joining the Aurora series ? It's pretty much the same thing, on different tracks

What happened to you tonight btw ?

I was behind Richard going in to the first chicane, beginning of lap 2 (!) I braked early but still had to avoid running in to the back of him and sucessfully took myself out out of the race. Oh joy...

I thought the Aurora cars were kittycat versions of these cars?

Well yes they are a bit less powerfull, but still good fun

All right, thanks. I'll figure out tonight which car I like. I don't know the first thing about this mod. Then I'll sign up for it.

What the heck was that start all about i started the formation lap and i was stuck behind Thomas
who was parked on my red box for the start of the race ...... I stayed behind him for the race start and my car gets thrown completely into the air ...so i started in last place with damaged suspension and my wheel of centre most annoying ......

Managed to get back up to 8th place then for no apparent reason my Pc just completely shuts down very weird ........

Thats a new one on me ....

épuisé, 30 tours avec une auto qui partait dans tous les sens suite à une sortie trop large , j ai fini avec les épaules bloquées le retour d' effort manifestant sans cesse par des coups de raquette même en ligne droite ,belles passes d'armes avec
francois olivier et thomas en toute correction.
très sympha

I dont know what happend, Carl. When I entered the race, I was alone. Well I know that situation from the Aurora races. I didnt move until the other cars appeared (a few seconds after the formation lap was started). After the formation lap, I had similar problem like Carl, I could not see the red rectangle that usually marks my grid position. So I came to a stop at the first free grid position mark behind the driver in front of me. And well, in my mirrors, I saw Carl flipping in the air.

It was a exciting race for me. I the first half of the race I had some wheel to wheel action with other drivers. Unfortunately I loosed every single duel.

Gratulations to the top three drivers

I Gotta see the replay of my start because i cant quite believe what just happened

I think it happened because I didn't stop our other training servers, as usually only 1 or 2 drivers use them during our race I thought this wouldn't be a problem. Next time i'll shut down all servers and we'll see.

Flight No 25 you are Clear to Land

I know the Ligier is flying in the corners but I can't say I've ever seen one like that...

I suppose it was ashamed for the qualifying and very eager to get away from the line?

I Did'nt no it was capable of Vertical take off either ....

hi guys,

had a pretty nice race until i lost concentration and lost the car.

the speed was good, although my gears were not set well and i lost a lot of time accelerating out of a corner. top speed was great, because i drove with 1/1 flap setting. i had some really nice fights. then, i found my rythm and was able to pull away from the pack around place 4-8. On a save place 4, i was able to gain on P3, but as said before, i lost concentration and the wall was too close.

i really do have problems when i am driving alone without pressure from behind and no car in front of me. i have to work on that for the next year, so practice practice and again, practice.

regards,
mario

ps: bye bye BT48, see you next year! great car, great sound, great power!

when is rfactor2 due to arrive ? hope they will fix all these bugs ...

Good race I' d say, decent start but Richard manage to take the lead for not very long since I past him on the next chicane after a small excursion on the grass

decided to save some fuel so that I can attack on the rest of race, my strategy turned out to be fine since I had I think 5L left in the end ... too bad you crashed Kimmo it could have been fun fighting with a turbo mate

Christmas 2010 I guess...

Pas très performant en qualif; pas moyen d'améliorer mes temps,même en roulant au maximum !
Donc je me fais une raison, la voiture est assez stable.
Très confiant pour terminer la course,je sens bien Monza,je part calmement et gère les plus rapide qui sont derrière moi, pour non essais en qualif !
Eh bien, maîtrisant bien ma Ferrari,voila ti pas que j'ai une abscence cérébrale vers le 16 ième tour (endormissement 1/10 de seconde),le temps que je revienne à moi, j'attaque le Lesmos 2 un peu vite, et hop le rail..... !!
Suspension foutue,je vais au garage,mais bon,les mécanos sont nuls,la voiture n'est plus gérable,ABANDON......!!!

Vivement la prochaine,mais elle n'est pas facile,peu de dégagement au Canada !
