Quote from hansonator69 :

...instead of at the bottom of a bloody dormant volcano and where it rains all the time...

Isn't that part of the attraction? These days, almost all the time you need rain for an exciting race! And the scenery was good too.

Quote from lukelfs :

Anyone interested in buying this?

Honda Civic Type-R '97

How much do you want for it? Because I'm very interested

I've worked out that you spent 27140Cr on it

Aww. I really liked Fuji.

I guess there might be a silver lining in that we might see more races at Suzuka.

I prefer bits. In my orange juice that is.

Actually, it's funny how we're talking about something having no bits after talking about your boss.



You poor sod Jack

This is the first time since 1985 that the German Grand Prix has taken place at the Nürburgring. (Instead of the European Grand Prix etc).

Quote from Insert random copypasta'd description :

The Nürburgring, simply known as "The Ring" by enthusiasts, is a motorsport race track in Nürburg, Germany. It was built in the 1920s around the village and medieval castle of Nürburg in the Eifel, which is about 70 kilometres (43 mi) south of Cologne, and 120 kilometres (75 mi) northwest of Frankfurt. Nicknamed The Green Hell by Jackie Stewart, it is widely considered the toughest, most dangerous and most demanding purpose-built race track in the world.

Originally, the track featured four track configurations: the 28.265 kilometres (17.563 miles) long Gesamtstrecke ("Whole Course"), which in turn consisted of the 22.810 km (14.173 mi) Nordschleife ("Northern Loop"), and the 7.747 km (4.814 mi) Südschleife ("Southern Loop"). There also was a 2.281 km (1.417 mi) warm-up loop called Zielschleife ("Finish Loop") or better known as Betonschleife, around the pit area. Between 1982 and 1983 the start-finish area was demolished to create a new GP-Strecke, and this is currently used for all major and international racing events. However, the Nordschleife is still in use.

I am told by an official German that 'Großer Preis Santander von Deutschland' is grammatically incorrect, instead it should be 'Großer Santander Preis von Deutschland'. I don't know why, could anyone elaborate? Is it like calling the British GP 'British Santander Grand Prix' or something?

Feel free to add anything from here to the OP

EDIT: I'm hoping that Rubens gets a podium, as he said if he does he's going to moonwalk

Quote from GreyBull [CHA] :

Tim, trust me, you're good enough to join already

CoRe or the ITCC?

Oh.

Still, why should it 'only be like that on his old posts'? I'm not trying to catch him doing something he shouldn't (anymore ), I'm just intrigued! Did he change his username using his oh so mighty powers and someting has gone a bit wonky with the forum?

Go to Options, then Controls, then where it says '[mouse steer]' (the third clickable button from the top) click! It should change to a keyboard setting. You can learn more about it here.

Quote from Migz :

Tell him to stop what? having two names with one account?

And god knows haha, he is a heshe

Yeah. It's just a little annoying, and it's not going to make feelings towards him/her/heshe any better...or your life any easier. And it might be interesting to find out how he does it.

Quote from Migz :

i didnt see equinox's post till now. Yeah it seem she doesnt have two accounts, its just two different names linked to one account, no clue how he did it

It'd be appreciated if you could stop him doing it, or you'll be bound to get loads of people contacting you about multiple accounts...and people like me doing asking you to stop him doing whatever he is doing regardless of whether he has 2 profiles or not.

Also, she or he?

I'll move my post across:

I've decided to give it a go. And I know the car is slow, but I had to get a Scirocco somehow!

Peformance update.

I might have a go at doing something to the visuals soon. Or pay someone to do 'em for me Though I think I'll just do what I did with the Hyundai, a nice simple edit - I'm not one for bodykits etc.

Congratulations drivers! Great stuff. And well done CoRe, I'm glad you won as your drivers seem very friendly and have occasionally been helping Clockwork with sets/tips etc. Next step is getting good enough to join

I'd have loved NDR to have won though!

Welcome xtraction!

Uh - oh, I'm starting to like these things! A (what should have been a) 5 minute edit (but it actually took quite a while) on my family's car, a Hyundai Coupe:

Stock:


Modified:


It wasn't much, and the bonnet (sorry, hood ) doesn't actually look that great but I enjoyed it. A bit more practice, and we'll see what happens. I had a go at replacing the hubcaps (sorry, rims ) but found I like the stock ones better. At least I can do it!

I liked the 'proper' tracks personally (as in the non-autox tracks). And I'd agree with a fixed format through all rounds, but frankly I don't really mind what it is (although on second thoughts heats would probably be best.)

I wasn't great last year, so I didn't have as many battles etc as I might have liked, but I really liked it because I enjoyed the cars.

If it's not too late, please note the BHP change. And now I'll move to the other thread

Quote from amp88 :

Please remove the hotlink to Darcy's site. Link to the thread instead.

Bleh, sorry, mind slipped. Uhh...for Mattzel's HQ cap of the last 6 laps, look here: http://www.tbk-light.com/phpBB ... 7&t=3977&start=25 You will need to register if you have not done so already.

God that was stupid! :sorry: Cheers for reminding me amp88 and his brilliant assorted videos thread!

Wallpaper attatched, I'm using it now as my little tribute to the mighty Billy Mays. Like speed1, I feel worse about Billy Mays than any of the others who have died recently. I genuinely feel really sad. It's slightly worrying actually, I thik there's something wrong with me!

I hope his gravestone says "HI! BILLY MAYS HERE!"

Quote from N I K I :

Does anyone maybe know where could i find those last laps of this amazing DTM race for download?
I'd like to have this in some kind of archive.

It doesn't have to be HD or some huge quality, youtube quality is enough

Thank you

Here's the last lap (credits to TBK Light's planetef1).

I'm predicting 5th (possibly 4th if I'm lucky ) if you'd be so kind as to give it a race birthday boy? You don't have to.

You might want to remove the 'Car Choice (XFG or XRG)' line and the 'XFG' in the example.

Quote from IamKoyote :

The Teams for tomorrow as follows:

-snip-

Can't wait! #04, team 1 (obviously the best team ) for me. Which cars are we using then? I'd prefer the RB4, mainly because I have a set and it should be a bit easier, but I'm okay with the XRT.

And sorry for missing the earlier stuff, stress tests or whatever.

Quote from Mojo1987 :

We discuss internal about your offense against the admins, maybe this have some consequences and maybe it's for you not needed to race again in this "shit league with shit admins".

You can post your oppinion, but without offense against other peoples they use their leisure to provide you good races. I'am very angry about this!

You do provide good races, definately. You put in serious amounts of effort, and for that I'm very grateful. I just don't think the adminning is quite right. Well okay, I think it's pretty bad. I haven't given you anything, and you have given me a lot, so you have the right to do anything you want with your series. Thank you for allowing us to post our opinions (although you deleted the posts rather than moved them), and I hope you can understand why I called you what I did. I have retracted it because I now know you didn't do what I thought you did! If you had let Mante race I would be very annoyed, and I was. Thank you for not letting him race!

Okay, that didn't make much sense. Basically:

Please take into account that I called you shit for something I was led to believe you had done when you hadn't. If someone told you I had, say, smashed up your computer, you probably would have said I was shit! But believe me, I haven't.

And anyway, Timo called you shit too!

Quote from J@tko :

He's probably even more confused now as I tried to explain it to him in Spanish...

Made me laugh

And yeah, the guy that just took the penalty should read the rules about pitting - better late than never! :P

As for the stream, it is perfect. No lag. Absolutely none. My internet connection isn't great and I'm running my laptop on a power-saving setting with loads of stuff open. And I am having absolutely no problems, it is really smooth and quite a nice quality.

Quote from G!NhO :

Where is clockwork members?

All gone. Everyone seems to have been caught up in someone else's incedent. 2 in the first crash, then 1 in Chadwick and Diaz's incedent. Actually I might be wrong, but something like that.
