Skeet_Tong Posted January 29, 2010 Report Posted January 29, 2010 Thanks for running the meeting and the series Mike and the rest of Admin...and a big well done to Sir Thomas of Drabble, JK and of course Mike for their successes last night, and also to UKSOM for another great track. Thanks also to everyone for their understanding when I requested a restart before the Final for the graphics adjustments...I remembered to ask pre-meeting last week aboot night races but forgot to check again this week, and of course I still had the GFX on full after taking screenshots of my F1 skins on Wednesday night...I did appreciate the restart being agreed However, I enjoyed the racing once again and the new wheel settings were a definate improvement on last week...had a great battle with Walker and a few others during Heat 1 til some bloke called Spike got jealous and spun me oot...and likewise another great battle with Harmen and Fast Track at the start of Heat 3. The kerbs made things very lively during the Final and GN...sorry again to Murf but I dunno what happened, one minute I was part of a group of cars charging doon the back straight and the next thing I know I'm swiped into the wall and sent skywards. I've got to admit tho, the resulting head-on was defo a lot more damaging than your poor effort after the chequer I tried to keep oot of the way when getting lapped in the Final but seemed to become a cue-ball on a couple of occasions...hence after being spun at the start of the GN and Shootout races, I thought better of it and parked up rather than risk making anymore enemies I know there were a couple of grumbles directed at me last night but I've said it before, I took part in the series to get some experience of the mod and the racing. The main difference I've noticed so far is in the practice servers...Heat was great because there were no practice sessions, only random grid races whereas with rFactor you have to rely on there being enough cars during a practice session to justify trying to slow down and join a battle, but even then the other drivers might be more interested in tweaking setups rather than racing. I cannae help it if I spin oot a few times, I'm still an rFactor Rookie learning how to keep out of the way in such an emergency. Some of you might have a low tolerance on Rookies, I have a low tolerance on moaning...I know I suck but am dealing with it, it's never always possible to avoid a spun car (ask Murf) but it's part of Stock Car Racing...it's full of the unexpected, tis why we love it! Cya'll part-time during the season!
fasttrack Posted January 29, 2010 Report Posted January 29, 2010 (edited) Thanks for a brill winter series i had a really good fun with some drivers every meeting. Great track essex is i had fun round it and was hard to catch tomD and JK for the points near the end, shame i got a bit of bad luck in the GN and shootout but well done to TomD winning the points and mike for winning the Shootout i cant wait for the season to start again its gonna be a hard this year seeing the lap times people were doing in the winter series and cya all on the 11th of feb @ scunthorpe FT Edited January 29, 2010 by fasttrack
Murf Posted January 29, 2010 Report Posted January 29, 2010 Managed 2 races last night before I got tangled with a car on numerous occasions, and the lucky driver last night was Skeet ... No fault of your own (well maybe three times) m8, just one of those things, wrong place wrong time... Been a good winter season, just a couple of drivers who hit a little OTT when there is a pack of cars infront... Roll on the season.... Cheers Murf (eternal blue)
