  1. This is what I'm getting at the moment, don't let it put you off though, I've been racing for a number of years and know the mod/tracks fairly well, I'd say between a 14.4 to a 14.6 would be good enough for your grade buddy.

    Come on

    Please don't leave Stumpy, I don't really know you but the way people talk about you, you seem to come off as a fantastic bloke. I know that myself and a lot of others appreciate every single effort you put into stewarding from your own spare time when you could be doing other things and nobody does it better than you do. If you did leave, I'm sure you would be missed a lot by not just the admins, but a few members too (including me). Hopefully people will read this and see how much trouble is being caused and reconsider their behaviour in the server, I know I ain't no angel but I never mess about in the server to the point where I get kicked. There has been a few times where my USB has gone west and my cars stuck in 1st gear, revs stuck on and full lock doing donuts! Lol, but I believe I've fixed it (fingers crossed) Haha. I think a discipline should come into place for people who race to grades, it seems to be the same people that do it, we had a problem in the Superstar grade at Sheffield on Tuesday where a driver was racing to grades and Jamie forced him to start at the very back of the grade. As for the whole restart situation, I've had problems with FFB in the past and I have a Reset FFB button set, sometimes it doesn't work but if it doesn't, I just get on with it and deal with what I'm given, engines being blown up should be the same, as Samson said, you wouldn't be able to 'restart' to fix it there and then in real life and I'm positive the attitude set by UKDirt is to keep it as close to real life rules as possible. Anyone that blows their engine should simply either be less throttle happy or be made to escape and it will teach them to not do it again, but I think due to restarts people will think "Oh it's fine, I'll ask for a restart". And most people don't know that whilst the timer is counting down, if you have any engine damage, you can escape and join back before the timer runs out and it resets your car to it's normal state. Correct me if I'm wrong but isn't there a rule that states only 1 restart will be allowed per race?
  3. ^^^This is why I haven't given up on it just yet haha

  9. My new cars for 2015.. Hope they're OK after the amount of messing I've done with it lol. Cheers. 297YarrowShale.zip 297YarrowTarmac.zip
  10. I'm afraid I'm going to have to book out, something's come up, I apologise.
  11. As Dave has said, you were removed as you were driving around on 3 wheels. If someone did follow you in then a complaint needs to go in. Furthermore, If you are struggling with controlling it or you are having issue with the game with regards to setting it up etc then a PM to admin etc for some help might be useful to you. Everyone starts somewhere and people will help you. Seems like I am Upsetting just by being out there atm. hamster yes I did spin you all I was trying to do was stay out of the way I apologise if you feel It was done intentionally I am sure I got a push but again I apologise for getting in the way. Like it has been said we all start somewhere. (I know I said I wasn't going to reply but I had to lol, it's getting beyond a joke how new people treat the league and the racing IMO). I never said you're upsetting.. The thing is, newcomers come to UKDirt, they watch racing in real life, love it and then they see it on a Sim and think "OH! I'll have some of that! I'll follow everyone in because Bradbury did it to Moodie at the weekend!" But the thing is, there's racers on here that have been racing for over 5 years and some have even been racing online for 10 years and take it as they would in real life, obviously it's not as serious but the admins give their time and effort to provide everything you need to race such as a Skinpack, or a Race Server being put up so you can practice and race.. You pay money to race on this league so why pay money to ruin other people's racing that have been working on a setup roughly all week or all day? I can understand that you're new and don't know much about it and I can also understand you're panicking once cars get behind you and you try to get out of the way as fast as possible, I've said to people time and time again, if they need help setting a car up, PM me on the Forum or in the Server, don't just struggle with what you have but back the 'contact' side of things.. It's Stock Car Racing, if we want you to move, we'll move you ourselves, the bumpers are there for a reason and we sometimes do move lower graders out of the way and they just think "Ah, he's having it for doing that" and then go flat out straight through the back wheel the next bend, it's not just lower graded or new drivers that do it, some higher grade drivers do but what are you gaining out of it? You're not gaining nothing other than a bad reputation for yourself which will lead to you being either spun or fenced every time they get behind you.. Think about it, and I hope this gives a different perspective to other lower graders that seem to think hitting everything in front of them is gonna get them somewhere.. And believe me, it's not.
  12. Right.. I'll let these images do the talking and I'll also no longer be talking on this thread:-)
  13. In all fairness I was on your outside at one point and you made no attempt to turn left on turns 1 & 2, you carried on going straight and put me in the fence backwards, maybe if you had more respect for drivers they would re-pay it back by respecting you.. I'm not a dirty driver but from that, I now know I'm unable to pass you clean because of what you did, it's all principal and if you race with your head instead of your bumper, you'll get higher finishes and you'll also have more respect from other drivers which leads to having close racing instead of nailing each other every bend. Cheers for the meeting, fingers crossed my lucks changing lol.
  14. WD LeeK, was on form all night son
  15. 64-Bit System: C:\Program Files (x86)\rFactor\UserData\*YourName*\Settings 32-Bit System: C:\Program Files\rFactor\UserData\*YourName*\Settings Usually some people get no folders showing in 'UserData'. This is caused by your Account not being a main Administrator or not having 'rights' or something, but you can click 'View Compatibility Files' at the top and it will show them, but I would highly suggest going to your Control Panel, going to 'User Accounts' then click 'Change User Account Control settings' and drag the slider right to the bottom and restart your PC/Laptop. This solves mods not showing in-game etc that some people have problems with. -Also I lapped a .738 Drumb, not sure what Skinner has lapped, but I think getting a 6 would definitely be a lucky one-off lap, who knows.
  16. Cheers Jamie, Dan, Stumps, and the rest of the crew, enjoyed F1's tonight for once! Lol
  17. Quality read Stumps, 10/10 IGN! Thanks for the kind words about me but all I can say is... #RollOnTarmac!
