LFS New Zealand

sorry i missed out last night, got home from work late

i did a 2.22.85 this morning my split was a 49.50 on qual setting - car is pretty differnt on race setup, dont think race times will be faster than qual times this race. (reminder to do 20 min qual)

Im struggling here too i did 7 laps straight on race setup. but still not very constant with lots of offs, (mostly pushing through chicane - havn't done it flat out yet)

Got to keep off grass and some curbs and resist temptation to get on the gas early. line seems to be important here you need to have the right line out of some corners to set you up right for the next corner.

Really looking foward to it will be a big challenge!!!
Things to look out for:
- FINAL ROUND OF THE SERIES!!!
- Max points from Sly gives series win if Kronik gets 0 points
- Max points from 4AGED gives 2nd place if sly scores <1 point
- 2nd & 3rd place in series is up for grabs
(If there is a points draw we should go on most wins then pole positions??)

Well done! Kronik! Was it a good turn out? or only 3 peps?

Yeah good turn out. Pity so-many dropped off, Must be Xnet connections LOL.

LOL! Yep, had 9 drivers! Well done Kronik! Nice one..

Yea well done to kronik!! so consistant throughout the series, got a podium every round i think. was a awsome series and ive liked having the chance to really get into a open wheeler, ive never really done any serious racing with them. also well done to Sly who managed 2nd place coming into the series in round 2 or 3. I feel for you in that last round, sucks to end a race like that (lag/timeout) when you had done all that practice.

farkin awsome to see LFSNZ growing and the racing so hard fought!! Thats one of the big things to come out of this series for me anyway. I prefer a good battle, i think id rather come 2nd and have a good battle than win by a mile.

Looking forward to a new series!

Firstly, congrats to Kronik ! ...

Secondly... argh... bugger... **** *** TI*S FE*K etc etc..
Damn that was frustrating... I knew things were going badly when drivers behind me were jumping all over the place, the lag was what made me have my first off (my excuse anyway), and then after recovering, I got about a quarter of a lap in before I disconnected....

The long and the short of it, my wife and her sister were transferring large files to each others laptops across the wireless network, and that totally raped and pillaged my internet connection too ! (oh for a decent Cisco Router).

Any more events I do, I shall be not allowing anyone else to touch the bloody connection whilst i'm racing !

Thanks for hosting the event guys, I really enjoyed the two races I got to get in to properly, and preparing for events too !!!

So.. When / Where / What is the next series !

Don't know if you noticed ???? you didn't come second !

anyway!, yes, joking aside... this is what I love about online racing, and what I miss SOoooooo much about what I had in the UK.. the close racing, the fact that you can get people on track, giving advice etc... I really would rather run at the back, but have close racing, than win out front!

hehe fine 3rd then ... if i had only finished that dam qual lap would have been 2nd overall but yea well said & keen az for the next series, will be good to start using the clutch and the H Shifter again.

Been watching the replay afew times, afew close calls in that race, Kronik came so close to clipping the nose of DrFelix after trying to avoid slys spin.
