wee dode

yeah its fine for me!

got well too many signs on it to be honest mate, sometimes less is more

congratulations...you have mastered copy and pasting

can see what your saying jakie but remember the fact you let your dad race under your name at a meeting and who ruined races for drivers (me included) and you got banned for it and wondered why you were getting abuse! Some of the lower graders like yourself get big hits from some of the higher graders since cant trust to go past and maybe get turned into a tyre or the infield so give you a big hit to get your out the way so we get past without getting slowed down trying to get past you. Prime example in some cases is waqar, sometimes no in full control of the car but when he takes someone out usually apologises instead of just sitting saying whatever!

Pretty sure you did at one point, you either lost it on your own or got spun and while being on the infeild i got spun by lars on the bend at the same point you were on the infeild. But dont want any admin wasting there time for nothing to get done. no point in me complaining....when i complain sweet fa gets done

hated tonight, some stupid hits but just gave them back as never any point in complaining about them.... bit unfair on tom getting GN place taken away since reds etc were going quite slow which he cant help. Aswell as admin cutting the track but sure its allowed. But was good to see banter but wouldnt say there was much more than usual?

gave up ukdirt? suppose i would now get called a so called ukdirt elite now but ive raced in both leagues along with others and ukdirt was the best by far! Fair racing, well organised and competitive racing which when i when to sim-stox....well there wasnt much of it in f2's! Say we team race all you want, i couldnt care since i know for a fact it aint true! i was a strugling blue roof, then dropped to yellow and managed to work my way up to red and do well without using TS! We are doing well not because of TS but because as leek said, we manage to get through the traffic etc. and fordy thats coming from you when the last time you raced f2's you were driving just as bad as a retard cause your hardcore?!

being honest I find it better to practice in server personally, since can set up the car and sometimes I set a car up almost a week before, for the likes of cowdie ive spent a good couple of hours trying to get the car set up perfect, mostly due to the fact its one of the hardest tracks to set up for and i love the place! also like to see how my lap times are compared to everyone else and see what the setup is like in traffic, ive had a good setup offline before and went into server and soon as i get punted on or go wide its terrible. Plus as you said matty can check to see if you get any errors or that, this is the reason i got in round about 7pm so if i have any errors gives me a while to sort them and get practice before the meeting.

that sounds like a sensible idea, have 3 or 4 minutes of practice then get everyone to shut up and get on with the next race and listen to the rm's instructions

yeah theres being realistic and theres being stupid if you ask me, but i usually like the chance to have a drink, go to the loo or that inbetween races but think giving people the chance to make changes and have a few laps does benefit people. When making mods etc you want them to be realistic but enjoyable aswell since at the end of the day its a league you race for fun! But being in the server together allows people to ask for setup help if they wish and watch people to try learn a line to drive, braking points etc to try help them as much as they can.

to answer some of your questions mav... 1) some of us go into practice from just before 7pm on race nights when the meeting starts at 8.30 to get plenty of practice at the track and to get used to the car, as i said thats how some of us are better than others 2) i dont think its fair to scrap it, not sure how it was worked out as some of the drivers arent even top but thats just my opinion, the blue and red race is a good idea, gives the blue and red grade a chance to race without the superstars (expect me, but im not in the champions league so get to race it) and the whites and yellows give them a good few laps in race conditions to warm up without having to worry about blues, reds etc 3) Ive used it for bangers (ventrilo) and for f1's and f2's aswell as other formulas but i think it makes the racing more enjoyable and can ask admin questions easier if they are in there etc. Ive been in teamspeak with quite alot of drivers over while racing and its more of a laugh than anything, usually end up just ripping each other to shreads lol 4) I dont think its fair on the drivers since to find out the pace of the superstars etc earlier helps you get a setup sorted, would hate to be a white or yellow thinking your on the pace then get in the server 5minutes before the start to find your way off, plus if you do that then you cant get setup help from the top lads?! 5) drumbstick done one ages ago, but i dont mind if drumb is up for it sitting doing a right up for f2's and how they work if someone else wants to do one for f1's etc? im willing to help with that. 6) Also seen newbies who wipe people out etc for example waqar does sometimes but is learning and gaining a bit of respect since he is getting better and apologizing for wiping people out or warping etc. We may have a go at getting wiped out but all it takes a simple sorry and abuse wont be said? 7) If people swear take a screenshot and send it in and get them banned, simple as! some people get away with it but its how you see it yourself, some of it is just banter some of it just red mist but dont mean its correct to swear in the server 8) Time between races should be fixed but not allowing people to practice?! thats just plain stupid!! so if i or a newbie want to change something on the setup we aint allowed to go have a couple of laps?! seems you want to help the newbies then turn round and screw them over at the same time! Fair enough having banter is all well and good but ruining practice time is stupid, end of!! Like i said ive helped people before, helped si#31 and advised him on a decent steering well to get, its about £50 off ebay and i use mine and its perfect for starting up and using for ages! Waqar if you need help with setups etc. just feel free to pm me mate and mav im not having a go at you, just expressing my opinion as a driver on ukdirt.

yeah understandable ive done it before but just seems theres a few that do it more often than others?

Guessing that I also fall into mav's "Elitist" drivers but being honest from everything you said most of it aint true. Yes I am usually one of the first to moan but half the time its due to the fact that a lower grade driver and sometimes higher grade drivers just pull out infront of you or a car near you causing a pile up or in some way ruining your race. I was a lower grader not too long ago after coming back to rfactor f2's as a blue roof I dropped to yellow and managed to work my way to red then to superstar. But I feel if you practice enough maybe a half hour every couple of days or whenever you can to have a play with the settings for the car to see what does what. This is what I done when I came back, just had a practice now and again to have a play in rfactor to get used to the car and how different settings on the car changed how it handles. As you say for newbies not wanting to race or us not helping them I rarely see a newbie asking for setup help. Not sure if its because they are scared to or something like that but im sure if they asked myself, drumbstick, tom or some of the other "Elitist" drivers as you say would help a lower grade driver get to grips with the game if they asked for setup or car help. I dont mind helping a newbie or someone who is struggling with a setup as I have helped Si#31 set up his computer for rfactor. Some of the newbies or not so good drivers in both f1's and f2's I feel just need more practice and maybe more respect for higher grade drivers. For example Big Al moves over for some of us higher grade drivers when we come flying up behind him as in the end you can end up having a better race if you do that instead of getting pushed out the way and maybe getting wiped out while getting passed by a pack of cars. Now im not saying just because im superstar you should let me passed if your a lower grade driver, only offering advice from my past experience as a lower grader driver in both f1's and f2's.

grip levels need changed and maybe take away the fencing at the pits of a track? make it easier for people to pull out onto the track or was that just noobs who pulled out apart from that good little track!

great right up corny im expecting for tom and aub to soon overtake me in the points lol
