Overall a rather average nite results wise for me, Really needed to play with gears and stay out of trouble a bit more. Had a good battle with Freezer in both races, we always seem to have some good close battles. Good stuff.Congrats to Dave and Cam on his first podium, win and 2nd for the round.

Nothing made the car feel horrible, put it that way. I was surprised the racing was relatively incident free, and close, given the rain. Even had some good tight racing little packs here and there. It was disappointing to be caught up in an incident in race 3 though, and being sent off the track. And I didn't make the race 1 mistake of stalling on the line more than once.

(Except for some bottoming in T8 due to a miscalculation in spring rate )It was a good night, I'm quite fond of precipitation, and I had some good battles with Cam, Tim and Glen.And only 2 rounds to score a century!

No penalty for who ever turned me around in race 2 either Can't wait for next round. See you all there Logged Wally Administrator Hero Member Posts: 11033 Karma: 152 AC Admin Re: Istanbul Race Chat « Reply #12 on: November 28, 2013, 07:18:14 AM » Quote from: JamieP on November 27, 2013, 11:03:17 PM Penalty for race one seems a bit stiff but I'll cop it . No penalty for who ever turned me around in race 2 either I can't remember the specific incidents now, but if you have full visibility of the car in front and you tag them I the rear, sending them off or making them lose a position, that's usually a penalty. I'm more lenient with side-to-side contact, where there's doubt as to whether you could see the other car or even know he was there. That's usually not a penalty.

Doesn't matter, since I am not in the running for the series anyway. Just though the penalty was a bit rough Logged Print Pages: 1 « previous next » Xtreme Gaming Network / Simulation Racing Leagues / netKar PRO (Moderator: Wally) / Istanbul Race Chat
