Average night for me. The 370z felt like a soggy sponge and I was just doing my best to keep it together. Had a few tangles in race one and two which didn't help. Race 3 I decided to flip my suspension settings in the opposite direction, had nothing to lose really! Surprise surprise the car was better but I was starting from way down the back. Got very lucky at the chicane at one point grabbing 4 spots in one go as people slid around but ultimately those speedy rx7's kept blowing me off down the straight.
Worst night for me but overall a good season. Thanks once again to Wally, looking forward to the next one.
-
Yeah Great work Wally , thanks for the season

Fun season Wally, good mix of cars and some good driving overall. Shame I missed race 1 but by the looks of it 3 wins and fastest laps would have had me behind Matthew who was solid all season.
Race 1 must have been great as I wasnt there.
Race 2, was a bit of fun getting through the pack. Had a good early battle with Jeremy with a fair bit of rubbing. It took a few laps to get him off my rear which he seemed to like rubbing up against a bit. :) Then I got a bit lucky with a few others getting together or having solo offs and managed to get into second. Last lap I snuck in a quicker one to take the fastest lap off Guybrush who seemed to be smelling the flowers or mowing the lawns. I was expecting an aerial stunt from him one of those laps but it didn't happen.
Race 3 seeing Guy pulled over and I had a good start getting ahead early. Then it looked like it may have been a solo session up front I went for a drive through. Pulled out in perfect position next to Guybrush, was some proper battles going on ahead so progress was slow. At one point I think I saw 3 rows of side by side cars into the entry of the chicane. It wasnt a surpise on the exit there were cars going every direction but straight. From there I struggled to make any passes and GB got a few spots ahead of me. I did have my save of the season late in the race as Mael gave me a near perfect tap in the rear exiting turn 2. I went to full lock catching the slide then worked hard to avoid the tankslapper return. Somehow hung on to it which was not easy in the rx7 ad I think ive only made saves like that in FWD or AWD cars before where its much easier by just going full throttle to get the car straightened.

3. Jeremy, 403 (tied with Grat on points, but wins on countback, 3 wins to 2).
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

It was a good late season charge, with you climbing up the leaderboard rapidly. You only just fell short!
I also added some season stats to the first post.

Well that was my best round, points wise, with a 5th, 6th and 7th. My 370 was feeling nice here, which saw me up the pointy end of the field for quite a while.
In race 1, I got a really good start with the oceans parting in front of me as people fell off the track, and got to 2nd. Then I was slowly picked off by Guybrush, Jeremy, Phil and Matt, usually just before T1 as cars pulled out of the slipstream.
Race 2 was much the same.
Race 3 was a great struggle with Joe intially (I don't know how I didn't hit him a few times - it was damn close) and then Mael. We traded paint and positions a bit in a hard fought race that saw me get the busiest award and finish 0.5 behind Mael. Very good fun.

Interesting fact: this season was similar in many senses to the GT86 season (Japanese street cars, slow twisty tracks, lots of pack fights, reverse grids).
GT86 standings:
1. Marty
2. Matthew111
3. Jeremy
4. Grat
5. Phil.8
6. Bacchulum
7. Bird
8. Hylas
Jap Pack standings:
1. Matthew111
2. Marty
3. Jeremy
4. Grat
5. Phil.8
6. Bacchulum
7. Hylas
If you don't consider Bird (he was not racing in the Jap Pack season), there is only 1 tiny tiny difference for the first 7!!!

Interesting! It's good to see that the guys are consistent.
Just for a random comparison, here's the final top 8 for the previous Ferrari 312T/Lotus 72D season, with some names the same, and a few different appearances.
1. Marty
2. Matthew111
3. Phil.8
4. Mael
5. Freezer

To be honest, I could only do 3 races in that season... but still: no Jeremy, no grat, Freezer and Hylas in front of Bacchulum... quite some difference ;)

Race 1 and 2 were pretty uneventful for me. I was the first Skyline on the grid with a few empty grid spaces nearby so was able to make a couple of places off the line. The fast people would eventually get me and I made a few small mistakes letting a couple of similar paced people by also. Had some good pressure from LTD in R1 for the last 6 or 7 laps.
R3 was going well, some close racing with Wally as he mentioned. After a few laps I overtook him through T1 and slid sideways a bit more than I wanted to and got very close. Was in 6th then and created quite a gap, but around lap 10 Grat reentered the track straight back onto the racing line in front of me and I had to slam on the brakes and lost the gap.
It went downhill from there, a few laps later I got loose going through 6 meaning I couldn't brake hard enough for 7 and went off the track and lost 3 places. A few laps later I couldn't hold the second part of the chicane and put it in the barrier and had to wait for the field to come by. Did it again the next lap. My front right was running around 93 degrees so not sure if that was why. Ended up 14th in the end.

Ouch! Really sorry, Joe! Did not realize it. I should definitely pay more attention to that. Shame on me.

The lotus ferrari f1 season Jeremy had broken his wheel and missed the second half.
The one main issue I saw with the last seasons format was for people missing races and having a bad overall season standing it put them out of where they should be in the grid. This meant Guybrush was too far forward in most of his starts and so missed most of the fun from the back of the pack.
I think for that reason in a future season of this type maybe the gt86 season worked better. Reverse season order race 1 then full reverse all other races. This meant that if you started too far forward race 1 you wouldnt get the same advantage next race. In this format if you win race 1 then race 2 will likely be the same from more forward start.

Where's the flying car practise session video marty. You're slacking...

Just watched the replay. It was less bad than I thought (I rejoined parallel to the track), which makes me feel a bit better. Still: I could have kept a wider line longer and let you pass. So still: sorry.

Yeah wasn't that bad. I saw you coming in from the left in plenty of time, but I still went for the apex and floored it not excepting you to come all the way across.

Hehe will try get one up in the next day or so. Should be some funny chit in there lol.

Yeah sorry 'bout that one :D I was close behind you approaching T2 and it appeared that you ran wide leaving me a barn-door to make the pass. As I was diving for the gap you turned in sharply leaving me nowhere to go. The following lap you took a similar line through T2 so assume it was just your normal line! For myself I found it quicker/easier in the 370 to be closer to the inside curb on entry, every-time I tried the wider line I messed it up.
Overall I had great battles in all 3 races, lots of contact but no great disasters. ;D

I saw you on the inside there so I actually tried to leave 1 car space inside but was going to hang on outside where I knew there wasnt going to be anything you could do. I would get the better exit and inside line into t3 but without seeing the replay its hard to say if I left enough room. I thought I did and assumed you just ran wide wanting more track then I was leaving which I kind of half expected and so was a bit more ready for a tap.
I wanted to take a look at the replay but just noticed I forgot to save the race 3 replay, this means I also dont have the replay from the earlier expression session. :(

I can lend you mine, as usual. At least for the jumps, it won't make much difference.
-
If you up the jumps section I should be able to make a video from it for a bit of a laugh. Did you do any jumps as in the prac server I found the other cars looked a bit weird in flight. Wheels flew but body stayed low ;D

Yes, I did a jump. I can upload the replay file on... dropbox? I think it is in high but maybe not in ultra quality...

All depends how many motherfuckers are ahead of you, you could be the best one. :)

If it comes down to how many mothers I fuck, I'm way worse than 7th.
Funny how I'm 6th in the cars I hate but 7th in the cars I like. :o

Don't worry, I'm nowhere to be seen! :)
