Hm, i only see a black screen and some text. Nothing I can do there

Quote from DeadWolfBones :

It was amazing luck for you guys that you blew both front tires twice right before you got to the pits.

I was watching that from the marshals' stand and my jaw dropped in disbelief.

Yes it must be Arnis punctures you are mentioning, but I lost a lot on the final puncture.

In the last safetycar period I wanted to go to pit, because I could see and feel that the tyres were going to puncture, but I didn´t know, if I would loose position on that, so I stayed out. Maybe it was a wrong decision, because Laas, who overtook us, when the Sc period was over gained halp a lap on us under the Sc period. Maybe it had been enough time to get out of the pit again and defend the 2nd position. But it would have been difficult anyway, because Laas car had a agressive gearing and therefore were faster under acceleration and we had a heavy gearing. It is quite easy to see and hear on replay, when the green flag came. He overtook 3 cars right away

This agreesive type of gearing was good under starts and green flag situations. And there were many in this race. This was also good for the FZR´s.

Thank you too for an exciting race!
We were very close in the end, even that we had 3 punctures....the last on the last lap on the race. I really had to drive carefully on the last 2-3 laps, because i couldn´t really control the car anymore, because of the beginning puncture. So 3rd place is a good result under those circumstances.'

Great race from you all, even there were the typical situations with people not respecting the blue flag, but most did.

Quote from r4ptor :

You are referring to T.Lass - I was just going through my last 2 stints (only replay I saved), and had a look since it was also mentioned last night. He had his limiter fully engaged throughout the last 3-4 turns - so no cheating what so ever

I have seen more than the 3-4 last turns, where he had controlled the speed more than just before. Before those 3-4 laps, under full course yellow, the speed was going up (more than 80km/h) and down all the time and I think he only controlled the speed with his food in the last turns...and i´ sure it helkp to start pushing without disengaging the speed limiter first.

I just mention this, because, this is important to know exactly what is legal and what is not. I could have defended my position much better, if I knew that it was ok to lift of the speed limiter before the green flag. (but the rules says otherwise). Earlier there were also a Cp car doing the same thing, but i have not yet checked it on replay.

Quote from srdsprinter :

Perhaps some thought should be put into this, perhaps:

running within a speed range 47-55mph up until the last sector before green,
where you must get inline and set limiter.

I got brake-checked yesterday by a car while i was under limiter. Perhaps we can revise, or really enforce the current rules?

Something must be done, We lost 2nd position under the last SC period to a car who hadn´ engaged speedlimiter under the last full course yellow at all. When the green flag came, he could faster than us hit the gas pedal and overtake 3 cars right away.

Rules:

"4) Races are started behind a safety car, driven at pit limiter speed, in single file. All drivers must use their pit limiters on the rolling starts, and must leave a gap of at least one (1) car-length to the car ahead. When the pole car reaches the final corner, the marshals will throw the green flag. Once the green flag has been displayed, drivers may release the pit speed limiter and accelerate carefully.

6) When the SC is deployed, the track is under a full-course yellow condition. As such, you are to cease racing for position, fall in line, and gently lower speed until you catch up to the leaders. Once drivers have caught the pack and slowed to SC speed, they must engage the pit limiter."

There were some cars driving witout pitlimiter under full course yellow, which I think helped to faster overtake when the green flag was given..meaning giving positions

Why drive through to car 15?????

Quote from Richard Torp :

I think you can get the Afri-Cola Racing spot..

Afri-Cola Racing will close in the end of this month.

The members in acr will then be members of Team Den Blå Avis...

Sounds good but what is happening with acr? (maybe just tell me on the danish forum)

Shall it be extracted to the lfs folder or what and is the patch the whole program or i need the first one?

Anything new about Spectator program..or is it now allowed to spectate the race from LFS?

I better put it here too.
Unity-racing has added Arni Arnason (Arni Arnason) as reservedriver for round 5

Unity is racing with Kenn Cramer (humbleridderen) and Arni Arnason (Arni Arnason)

I also have a problem ( parents visit) to come tonight. Wish a good race for all of you

This race has been cancelled, because there´s an official IGTC Test race on saturday, we can join instead! (I didn´t know about that)

I´m also there, Kenn Cramer (humbleridderen)

Quote from BenjiMC :

This is in no way associated with IGTC in organisation.

True! It´s just an open preparation for the IGTC race arranged by Unity, so teams can test their machines and technique before the race I an not trying to misuse your name. Does it look like that?

Ps, I tried to write UNITY in front of TEST RACE in the headline, but there is a bug in the forum, which doesn´t let me edit it. But anyway, it´s written in here in the headline.

Quote from arco :

Yes you are, and you will take their place. Unity Racing will take the next available one.

pheww, that was close ...but is it possible to confirm the teams, if they really are going to come? Could be nice to have cleared out in good time, for us who really want to come.

looks like the server is already running....havent got the password yet though

edit: nevermind...

Thanks for racing. You did it well. Remember next time to check the first post for password . (I have deleted it again after the race.) Points will be up soon!

Quote from Kalev EST :

I´ll be with Speedway in a team called [noobs].

OK!

Quote from gp4racer :

it will be great to participate!!

I also suggest that you come into the privateer team Apex100 for this race.

Apex100 is only made for this occasion to have a team for those, who are without teams.

As there are races like this every sundays, it´s maybe not a bad idea to look for a permanent team...maybe one from the list above.

Speedway,
I suggest that you come into the privateer team Apex100, which is especially made for people with no teams. It´s because it´s a team competition and when we count points it´s best this way.
