I will try and get another Moo team in but I doubt it'll happen. I've got one person interested, I've just got to find the other 3 now...

Hopefully my win will come this time. I've got to win to have a chance at the championship so lets hope I keep my head together and there's no silly mistakes!

[O/T] I did a 2 and a half hour race yesterday, thank god this endurance isn't as long!

The broadcast has stopped. It'll be on tomorrow for the last 4 hours.

This'll probably jinx me but my connection has only ever given up once. It was with one of the new test patches and TBH i'm not sure whether it was the server or my connection.

[O/T] Go to bed!

Perfect for the IGTC then!

Congratulations on the baby, is it a boy or girl?

This puts me provisionally on the same points as Ant. I'm just 39 points away from first. This makes it a bit easier for me to win the championship

On-topic: good decisions. Doing stuff like this is what separates a good league from a bad one, well done.

That was long. Two and a half hours. I'm knackered now

Yeah, and it works. I just forgot to post back here

Works perfectly in Winamp for me

So do we have to use the W26 patch on our computer? Or can we run W32?

I'm not sure if I agree with it but I suppose it is better for the division 1 drivers. The only thing is, everyone needs to be extra careful. It wouldn't be very good if a division 2 racer took out a division 1 racer and they lost the championship, or vice versa.

(Although, any division 1 drivers, feel free to take out Tongey, tot and M.Butz )

Nice car. Must be nice to have the money to race it too

My dad's getting a Lotus in about a year and a half. Somehow I don't think he'll let me drive it

Quote from Madman_CZ :

btw.. i did some searching for some updates for Grand Prix World just too see whether some dedicated community updated it.... I didn't find anything but i did find this

http://www.gpm2world.com/

In the downloads section you can grab the full copy of Grand Prix Manager 2.. all you then need is some patches and then some of the mods......

the game was released way back in 1997... i haven't tried it yet but dlding now......

edit: Ok, I have now come across a 2006 Grand Prix World update.. for those that are interested.. http://boostnetwork.net/plug-ins/phpBB2/viewforum.php?f=19

That game is seriously addictive. I played for about 3 hours earlier without meaning to

What series does he race in?

Lewis display Apple's brand new iPod, using revolutionary technology where you pretend you're listening to music!

Quote from tongey :

Nice one mate, you certainly have done your homework

I will do my best to come second then

Second? Nooo, third. (Don't worry, you still get 2nd in the championship, I think)

Here's how I see it (in pick up races): who cares if you come last? Slowly push your limits every lap, you'll soon get faster. Ignore where you come in a race. Also, if you're not comfortable with racing next to someone then back off and give yourself some space. Try starting at the back of every race until you get the confidence to go into T1 and not wreck the whole field.

To summarise it, have your own race. Ignore where you're going to finish and your lap times will soon pick up. When you're fast enough start racing with a few friends, get into a good battle and you'll soon get the confidence to do that with complete strangers.

Technically I could win the championship. The thing is I need to win, get the 20 bonus points on offer and everyone else near the top needs to be 4th or below, taking scoring 10 bonus points into account. I doubt it'll happen

EDIT: I need Tot to come 4th and Tongey to come 3rd. Jamie (my team mate) will be 2nd in qualifying and ultimately second in the race while I will have a dominating round and get pole AND the win. Everyone got that?

Quote from dynofiend :

danny was very unlucky, raced a great race up till then, i got right alongside him fighting for first but found it a real struggle to keep up and was cursing his consistency until the contact he had with a back marker let me through, then i just had to concentrate not to make too many errors for the last three laps. I even beat my qualy time on about lap 16 and got a new PB lol, damn i should practice more.

In the second race i hadnt practiced the track hardly at all and was off the pace, rolling it and putting my self out the game. Later i discovered a better flow and again knocked my PB down by about 0.7 three laps in a row on the last 3 laps. Unfortunately it was too little too late

Yeah, it was fun racing with you up until then. TBH I wasn't that consistent. I was hovering around 1:33.9 with the ocassional quicker lap and quite a few slighty slower. I'm amazed how you never managed to pass me though. I must have had to go round the outside about 5 times.

Awesome race up until the 17th lap where JamieB confused me and we ended up facing the wall at the side of the track. I was first as well. Needless to say I'm not happy.

Just thought I'd add my recommendation for a host: Qoozz

I use them for the Moo website and my own personal one. They're cheap and reliable. They're also helpful too!

You could also try the 'Webhosting Offers' section on the Devshed forums (forums.devshed.com)

Perhaps there's not many people because it's not 7pm GMT yet?

7pm GMT = 8pm BST (what we're in now)

Also, the server has a password on it. what's the pass?

@CSU - please change that avatar, it really hurts my eyes.

I'll be there. Prepared to me Mooed

I realised I was using 1024x1024 after doing the front bit and I couldn't be bothered starting again so i gave up. I'll have another go tomorrow.
