Too long, I got bored about 1/2 to 2/3rds through and didn't bother finishing it. It's some nice effects bust most of it was simply the same thing over and over (with a different car).

I've actually done some FOX stuff there. In my experience people get spread out enough that it's not that big of an issue. We even had FO8s on the same track and it was still a fairly low casualty race.

Quote from Ki-Men :Session: Race
My name Z. Palatinus
Cars Involved: 22 S.Rose and 76 S Murphy
Lap/time : 6 - after sc , restart race in T1
description : car 22 hit car 76 and sending him in to the grass , from 1 place to 15 ,

inappropriate approach to T1 , and to late breaking causing that accidents

This is really petty of you. That incident had nothing to do with you or your team, I apologized to Simon over vent after the race (I hope he heard it, he's got no mic so I cannot truly tell), and you ignored the time where one of my other teammates hit me under a SC. It's pretty obvious you're just insanely bitter over the incident at the end of the last SC period.

And please don't bother protesting R.Young for hitting me, he apologized and I accepted it.

And don't bother re-protesting with the driver who actually raced, it's against the rules for you to protest this. Read rule VIII.2

Quote :
If you are involved in an incident with another car(s) and you feel that it was caused by another competitor, you may file a complaint in the thread specified for such in the LFS Forums.

Notice "you".

Furiously-Fast and bmwe30m3 are still obivously "driving very fast on a small chunk of asphalt around cones in different figures". The other two... not so obvious.

Still voted for Subphonic.

Quote from Ki-Men :pik_d , I wonder : do you read somethimes yourself?
"Murphy could not pass Fermevc"
you shoud do that , NOW!!!
In this place I m now stopping this nonsens arguing with you .
It is time for you to start think with your brain , calm down , and watch the replay.

Maybe comprehension is your problem. On the restart Murphy was two cars behind Fermevc. Because Fermevc held back the cars behind him had to hold back. Murphy could not pass Fermevc at that point (before the final turn) so that he could stay close to the cars in front. Coming out of the final turn Fermevc was on 80-90% throttlewhile the people who correctly followed common restart procedure (1 car length) were on 20-30% throttle. When the green flag fell Fermevc was already doing 83mph (134km/h) when the leaders were doing 55mph (90km/h), and that's faster than what we should have been doing (pit lane speed, 49mph or 80km/h).

It's pretty clear Fermevc gained an unfair advantage over those ahead of him. (not the two directly ahead, he would have passed them anyway because they had to slow at the last minute, I'm talking about those even further ahead).

Quote from fermevc :
It was not my intention to gain any advantage after restart, it just happened that I had the speed cause all of you were too close to each other.

No. You had the speed because you held back from the pack. We were all as close as we should have been. It's a tried and tested and unsportsmanlike tactic to do what you did, which was hold back so you can get on the throttle before green flag without passing anyone.

Quote from Ki-Men :I now prowided screnprint before 0,2 s before accident, for my point wiew pik_d , you was quilty for the accident.

Did you just completely ignore how I pointed out that the "ideal" racing line isn't really that? Did you not watch the WR replay? If you're going to ignore what I say then why should anyone care about what you say?


Quote from Ki-Men :And before someone mention the issue how he was fast , and jump 7 or 8 places ahead , nobady mention S Murphy (the winner -congrat) who is used the same moment to go hughe jump forward and using the hole after fermevc and the moment off accident he was on the 5 place..
This is just race and hes good moves on the track.

Yes, because S. Murphy was behind I. Fermevc. Murphy could not pass Fermevc to keep up with the rest of the cars, what else was he supposed to do? It was again Fermevc's fault that Murphy was able to do that.

That's not the ideal line. It's the line the AI takes and it ignores curbs (doesn't use the whole track) and is generally *not* the fastest line. If you want proof, watch the WR replay and see how long he's actually on the "ideal" line.

Quote from Ki-Men :This is not quite right , the restart was regular he has green flag in the moment when he goes on the straight part and he is pushing forward and he was faster than the others and he have first place in the moment of accident, the incident was caused by car 22.

The incident was caused by 81 not turning for the turn. He had plenty of room on his left, yet he kept going straight. I turned left, as you should, he didn't. I don't know if he just wasn't aware of where he was, where R. Salama was, or if he was trying to force me outside (where J. Teien already was). The best part? He shouldn't even have been up that far in the grid. He was accelerating at full throttle well BEFORE the green flag, got lucky with the two cars ahead of him tripping over themselves, but there's no excuse for him being fast enough to catch the leaders from that far back.

Session: Race
My Name: S. Rose
Cars Involved: 81 I.Fermevc
Lap: 39 (approx TC 44:20)
Description: Failed to turn into the turn (even with plenty of room on his inside) leading to a multi-car collision.

Quote from fermevc :I`m so revolted like never before!
Missed to save replay, so for now I`ll just say "big thanks" to anyone who spun me twice!
I had good pace and really payed attention to everyone else. Also had a couple of touches during SC, sorry to all for that.
Special apologies to car 30 (nikopdr) for staying on the race line during first qualy!
I had no intention to be in the way (bad fuel strategy), it was just a lack of attention for other cars on track. For that I`ll accept any marshal decision!
I`ll watch the replay and file a couple of appeals for sure!

You held back from the queue, were able to get from 8th to tied with 1st in half the length of the pit lane, then didn't turn for the left-hand turn at the normal turning point and you're upset that something happened? Really?

He is even better than racer hero and Niko have been at their team-hopping best.

Have you watched Reno Koots? EER -> spdo -> EER -> F1RST -> City-Liga Endurance Team

I'm not positive about the 1st one, I just saw it referenced rather than 1st hand.

Quote from livefornow :FZ2 ? is that meant to be funny ?

It's what some people (and trackers) refer to a FZR-GT2 as for shorthand.

He's pointing out that your time in a FZR unrestricted is slow for GT1 (which most people will assume when they see FZR), though obviously that is not really what you mean to be telling people since you mention GTAL.
