Tomorrow the GT1WS will open the 2013 racing season, so I was wondering how many of us were really in control of themselves?

Watch this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v ... eature=endscreen&NR=1

Answer this: who's controlling you?

Edit: if the youtube link don't work, you can download low qual here: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/499458 ... mind%3B%20Ego%20(Low).flv

Maybe I should have posted this in the league section, but I think it would end up in stats anyway…
There is one domain where LFS is still on top compared to other simulators, and that is endurance racing with the ability to switch drivers, but disconnections (time out) is not well managed, for that we use third party trackers (which also add some stats like the laps and time driven per drivers…), but they are often difficult to use for inexperienced users. So I was wondering if adding this feature would be possible/useful, maybe integrated as an option to the remote settings and displayed there…something easy to use where organizers would have to input the team number, team name and drivers…and of course we would also need to input the penalty given for time out (added time or added laps).

Of course this would not fix the problem of on track blue flag situations when you disconnect and reconnect (that’s when the tracker is useful, but you still need a team mate to check it and report to the driver), ideally this tracking feature ''should'' be integrated to LFS server…but that’s for a different topic I think!

Something I'd like to share here as I am his extremely proud manager. We haven't seen him much on the track the last two years because of his RL racing career, but some of you may remember Michael (michaelvdm) van der Mark. After 5 years of 125cc racing (7 races in motogp 125cc), the last two years he has been riding in the superstock600 championship and we are very proud to announce that he has won the tittle after a great battle with Riccardo Russo the all year. And the great news is that he will be racing in the Supersport world championship next year for PATA Ten Kate Honda!

I am always amazed by the amount of PR done by some to try to influence admin decisions, personally I hate races which are decided in the tribunals, so I am not going to wait for the results and I will congratulate Inex for winning the 24h race (bit dirty in last lap though) and CR for winning the 15h race!!

THX everyone, I'm really proud of the results we've achieve with Virgil Mocanu and Niklas Gebauer, we knew we were not going to be the fastest and that's why we have worked our asses off to be the most consistent in our class...The results speak for themselves, 4 wins and 2 third places... THX to CoRe Racing and to the new Bazinga team which has been very impressive for their first showing!!... On a personal note, I had not raced in league for two years and thought I was getting too hold for it, so I can't tell you how happy I was to win this race and AM champ on my birthday!...Congrats to Inex for an other impressive performance and THX to all participants and to New Dimension Racing for a great season, can't wait for next year!!

The beauty of this is that there are no team orders or requests, but there is no need for it as our drivers all work for the interest of the team before their own… what can I say… I am proud of them!

Quote from IsaacPrice :
Oh, and I heard you might be entering an R2R team for the last round. Hypocrisy...

I know where you got that info from, but you don't know me, I would never use those tricks...it goes against my principles, that's why I mentioned it here!

Take it easy guys, I was not accusing anyone of anything, I was just showing two situations to explain my point, mainly to the organisation and participants, I wasn't implying that it was cheating or that we even had a shadow of a chance against Inex... just making the point that champ's outcome can be influenced by the lack of rules about this.

So don't make a storm in a tea cup here!

Little something that has been troubling me, I think that after half of any season of league racing new sign up should be prevented…example: Inex signed another car under another name and take valuable points away from the championship contenders. The same way in AM, for the last race we only need a 17th position to win the champ, so if I wanted to play it the same way, I just need to sign up one or two extra cars in PRO to make sure there are 17 cars or less in AM, it is not fair and it should not be possible! (of course I do understand that admins are only trying to fill the grip for every race, but it is wrong)

My 2 cents...

Congrats!!..though I do not know what it means as I wasn't aware of an other Vires team down under.

Ignore the GenR duo...they are just jealous!

I am sure you will bring something very positive to Vires and a great mentality!

@Vires drivers: Do listen to him!!...though he can talk a lot..

Good luck to both Vires and Momo!!

If it wasn't for the start our race went as planed, we knew the AM race would probably be about damages and time spent in the pit, so we've decided to race within our limits and avoid damages at all cost, Virgil and Niklas did an awesome job without repairs needed and they gave me the car almost as new...most of the race we were fighting and hoping to recover from the bad start to a top 5 place, so no need to tell you how surprised we were to get an other podium...good race all!

@James Peace: I was planning to let you pass before the hair pin, but I made a mistake before the chicane which slowed me a lot and caused the contact when you were coming to lap me, I know you haven't lost much from it, but I am sorry!

Grats to Inex for an other dominant race!!

Quote from TexasLTU :Might sound like a foolish idea, but I thought of equalising FOX with FBM and make multiclass SS and probably it would bring some close racing.

LOL told you many times not to post after drinking!

Grats to Simon and Isaac, great pace guys and entertaining last couples of laps!

@Nathan: I can see much improvement speed wise from you, but you are not consistent and you remain a dangerous driver, it looks like you're not planing on improving your track awareness...c'mon don't be a hazard for the rest of the field, get your act together!
