What's the form for tonight?  I was out in London last night so you chaps would not have wanted to see me by the time I got back!!  The driving would have been interesting.

Last night Sears Point turned out to be a bit of a let down due to folks disappearing into the mountainside.  :blink:  
I've had a chase up for any updates to fix this but, as I thought, it's been several months since any comment on this and the author is aware of the bug but hasn't done anything about it! :( Hey ho.

Thanks for another good evening of racing last night chaps.  I enjoyed it very much, and coupled with my first win!  The new DFP was a good recommendation as well.

Some spiffing racing last night chaps! :dribble:

Thanks to JAS for taking out Malcolm and to JamesB for changing down too many gears at the hairpin  :roflmao:


Next time Ron, next time  :devil:
I do exactly what the little voices tell me to.

PC Specs:- Black box with some fans that go whirrr, a few lights, things inside that get warm, headphones, keyboard (a clicky one), mouse (with buttons and no squeak), disks (2-off SSD and HDD) and a monitor of sufficient proportions.

a few more laps and I'd have been lapped :ph34r:
had a few decent bits ... after we'd been on the same track for a while I was beginning to get to know the corners. Once I've finished moving house I'll have to get into it on a more regular basis so that I can perhaps keep up just enough to crash into people at times other than the first corner :rolleyes:

SM, it'll take a remarkably short time before you'll start to keep up. The problem I had was being consistant, in fact I still find it a problem.  
I've started to brake a bit early as smoothness is faster than slamming the anchors on and screeching round. Much to Oldies surprise and annoyance  ;)

Delanvital, I know  :P

I really enjoyed the racing last night.  a second at Dijon on a circuit I don't know well was a good feeling although I'm well aware that many fell off to allow it!

Snooks, you did well to win that one after I spun out.  I was cursing loudly after droping those two gears.  I must remember to get onto the clutch quickly if that happens.

Wow looks almost real..... amazing how small they can make those pixels innit? :P

A few decals would make all the difference you know ;)

SM, you really will not take long to get up to speed.  When I joined this motley crew I could not keep up at all and I still struggle on courses I have never driven on, but that's not exactly surprising.  The chaps have given me advise, shared their setup details with me, given kind words of encoragement, suggested new hardware to further advance my quest and even let me sleep with their wives.  Now I am able to crash much faster than I could before and sometimes from near the front of the race :blink:

That just about says it all for last nights racing!

I dreamt and it came true!  :woot2:  :yahoo:
