Yeah good stuff Hornbag. When I started with XGN I was the same; rather that looking for what position I'd come (because I'd always be last), my goal was to be lapped by the fewest number of people 

I also don't get the rage quitters, some people just wanna be in the top few positions or not race at all. I've had plenty of races right a the back due to spins; I just enjoy the game.

I was using plp but was just curious. Will be moving it to my central monitor after tonight so i dont miss the cuts 

Joe and Hornbag got a 10 second penalty for cutting on their qualifying laps.

Ah man! That puts a massive downer on what was a great race. I bailed out 3 low 08s which would have put me top 5ish as I noticed the cut, and didn't notice it on that one; I definitely would have slowed if I did. Would have been better off keeping the faster ones 

Was a fun race though, got Wally at the end of the straight on the opening lap due to his heavier fuel load. A few laps later I went around the outside of someone who went sideways on the hairpin before the straight, which was a mistake as I couldn't take the fastest line and Wally came up in the inside to the take the spot back. I then couldn't get past for quite a while and with my low fuel load it was really hurting my times. I was so close at time I'm not sure how we didn't touch, and eventually I got a draft right at the start of the straight and went past.

I pitted after lap 11 for fuel, which undercut a few people including Simone! I came out into relatively clean air and can't even remember that stint. I think I just kept it clean enough and then came in for tyres at the end of lap 16 as I could feel they were going off.

A few laps later Wally came out of the pits just behind me, and I had already got a 10 second cut penalty so I made it my mission to get 10 seconds ahead of him (not that it mattered now...) I was making good pace slowly closing the gap on Mael, but then every time I got to a back marker the gap would increase a little. I think I got it from 8.5 to 5 seconds, and I was well clear of Wally and Russ running > 10 seconds behind.

Was really happy with 11th to 5th, but looks like that's bumped down to 8th due to two 10 second penalties. Still a lot of fun.

EDIT: Out of interest does PLP use the same rules as the AC cuts? In practice I found PLP would register a cut quite often when the game did not, but I thought they always used to be inline.

Heh I thought I'd sign up to just to see what is was and got this error:

I have no preference so just do me whatever. Maybe a yellow one 

as a follow on from Des' great race videos, I have a way to add the drivers' names to the windscreen upper.
I will create the files for each racer before next week's race, but we need to have a car selection,
Phil are you happy to allocated selected cars to racers on the server?

Good work Bruce, would be good to know who is who!

That race has multiple restarts for other reasons, and someone complained twice that it was a rolling start and why were people overtaking, but it wasnt a rolling start.
