  1. Have been meaning to add my setup to this topic. Not the best pic. Should look better when i finally get my G27 - got half the funds!
  2. WD Mav - the trick with places like that is to slow down. I were hardly on the throttle over 50% for most of the racing.
  3. WD Mike on winning the title & Tom for the points - And of course Mav!! I am slowly getting to grips with racing from the reds but it is taking time. I can prove that I can set good laptimes now but need to be more consistant. See you all next week.
  4. WD Dave on your final win. I really struggle on tarmac especially from red. I got caught up too much in the heats and sent to the fence in the final - when i went to hit the brake the cable came out of the pedals and kept the throttle down so hopefully i did not take anyone else out when i came across into the centre green. If anyone could spare me a setup it would be very much appreicated See you all tonight hopefully.
  5. Can I have a provisional booking please. 277 Southy
  6. WD Dan - you're on top form but i could of beaten you a few times tonight on the last bend lol. Looking forward to next week - hopefully some more good clean racing.
  7. Does anyone have a nice FWJ Racing sign that they can share with me?
  8. Thanks for explaining this drumb. With my current chassis i find it hard to keep consistant laptimes. I spent last night on every shale track and found that i prefered a certain chassis. I feel more comfortable and consistant with it so a chassis change could be on the cards.
  9. I know what you mean drumb. So its the view that you prefer and not the chassis lol I just found it strange that i can try another car and beat the times i set with the car i have been racing and using all year.
  10. Thanks Mike. Unfortuantly i am at work...if thats what you call it when i spend my time on here lol I am having a few days off soon so i can give you a shout and if your available we can give it a go. Glad to hear some of the top guys use the sidewinder - mine is 10 year old and still going strong. I don't think i am far off but some tracks i just struggle with. Last night i tried a few different shale chassis's and found that i could control the car better on some tracks where i struggle with my current one. Does anyone else find this? Something to do with the way everything infront of you (mirrors, bonnet scoop etc) is displayed infront. Might be that I need to find a chassis i am comfortable with.
  11. Thats great. Thanks very much.
  12. I am creating a set of skins for a new member who would like the santander sign (as attached) on the side of his cars. Can anyone help me? I need the sign creating and be able to change the background colour as required. If you get what i mean. Thanks in advance.
  13. I have been racing and practicing a lot with the F1's this year but always seem to struggle on getting the F1's to grip. On tarmac when powering down the straight i can gently apply the power but i think i always get the setup too low or high geared and never find one where I can keep up with the guy in front. When entering the corners the car seems to push on too much no matter what I change on the setup and I just seem to slid too much. Do you think it could be down to driving style or am I missing a setup that needs changing. On shale it is mainly on getting the grip when applying the power – tried applying slowly but then the guy in front has increased the gap. I am still puzzled how the top guys can go to any track and still hit top times. Hat off to you if you can do that. The last question is would a G27 wheel compared to my sidewinder improve all this? Any help, advice would be appreciated.
  14. Does anyone else find that you can handle different chassis's better than others? I have been racing with the shale smith chassis but found i'm quicker with the stu or fwj chassis.
  15. Ok Dave - i thought that if you could still book out on the website it would be ok.
  16. Noticed that I were on the mi. I had booked out on the website so no messer strikes for me please.
  17. I am trying to draw a simple line on a skin i am working on. Basically i am wanting to draw a think border around a sign - but i can not see any tools for doing it. Thanks.
  18. Does look well Daveyboy. WD.
  19. Decided to change my shale car - i seem to be able to control this chassis more.
  20. was going to upload my new shale car (change of chassis) but need another night on it so will wait till next time.
  21. Thanks for trying to run it Dave. WD Tom on winning another title. I were happy with 4th.
