THIS IS RETARDED WHY DID WE BOTHER TURNING UP!

If each caution is on average 3 laps and we lose 2 for formation.

That leaves us 266 laps. Divide that by the 3 laps for each caution plus the one we get on green so 4.

266/4 = number of cautions = 66.5 (Round down to 66 for optimism reasons)


^^ Logic ^^

I ran a .98 on my run after a .05 first split. Best lap I ever did

Qualifying and Bump day for the 500 has always been more exciting and fun for me than the race. Think it might just be me though.

Quote from boothy :The rules are pretty clear, leader holds SC speed so that everyone behind knows what's happening.

Not what I was told but I will rectify that.

I have been informed that provided the speed decrease is gradual that when the saftey car pulls away I can drop my speed as low as 80kph (50 mph) and so when I (The 42) was leading and had two drivers in the same TS channel directly behind me slowing down to use first gear on starts to get the jump was the optimal way of us breaking away from the pack. Seeing as I won the race I would guess that this is an affective and useful strategy for restarts. Also working with people at the front and forming a gap early can help spread out the field and minimize wrecks. Please note the 30 odd laps of green we managed after the first yellow where I was leading and worked with the 01 to build a gap.

I should be about for quali and the race. Nice long one. Means the idiots might wean away through the race before we get to the end.

Quote from CrAZySkyPimp :Not really necessary to post that for the public

It's aimed at the public and EVERYONE wanting to do the race. Not just the select few who have been acting like tards. It is needed... this race can be great provided everyone is on the same page and has proven a good level of on track maturity.

Quote from Ball Bearing Turbo :then full lock right with the sole purpose of pasting me into a wall! .

Nice.

Quote from tristancliffe :It's not because I stopped being quick, or because I started crashing into people.

Somehow I doubt that one.

Quote from tristancliffe :
The reputation went because I stopped playing online.

So if you no longer sim race online, which if you are racing properly fair enough. Then why is it that you seem to think you have an opinion on the subject of sim racing and physics if you are not driving them any more and they are constantly changing? Maybe you should try another thread where you are likely to know what you are going on about... could take a while granted but it's worth a try.

Quote from tristancliffe :few people think the new one is actually better.

That is because it is more difficult to drive on. It is better physically but some people should never have left their arcade racers. All development on the NTM recently has been receiving positive feedback from the community and real world racers who have been testing the physics. So some real fast and hard proof that the physics are good and going in the right direction, which seeing as getting a simulated car to get close to real life is incredibly difficult and ALL simulators have their own independent issues with physics iRacing is going in a good and promising direction.

Quote from tristancliffe :I had a damn good reputation

Had being the important word there... wonder where it went.

He could have... oh, I don't know. Braked using some initiative and not tryed to move when on the brakes and no incident would have happened. Grid penalty deserved for that Avoidable Contact.

Quote from NotAnIllusion :random moves... Clearly a bunch of Germany haters here.

Random moves = picking a line and driving in a straight one.

And I quite like Germany... I just think that using eyes would show just how at fault Schumie was there. I think that we have someone who would like to rim a German here.

Quote from NotAnIllusion :Plix, Senna's fault because he changed lines in the braking zone after Schumacher had committed.

Gooby pls. Schumacher is at fault, rules state it, the advantage of having eyes state it. Need anyone say more?

Hey,

So I just remembered that I cannot race on this day So someone will end up taking my place during the race. It took me until today to remember that I am a lead commentator on the RDLMS 24hr Nordschliefe.

Best of luck to you all and thanks for the racing up until now.

Oscar.
