My Fiat 500 race car is ready & just in time for this weeks race. It should suit GenTrack1 nicely.

Server is up for those signed up. (Use the AACL server that has 14 spots open)

If someone could do some testing for me, that would be great.

Fuel use is on. Damage is on. TC and ABS should be set to factory default.

If there are major fuck ups, please post here.

So far so good server wise, got a "7000 hours til race start" message, but a quick re-log and I could actually qualify.
Pitboxes are pretty messed-up on this server, but you can still do pit stops, Damage and Fuel use work fine.

Sorry guys but I'm not able to make it tonight as I'm unwell.
Have fun & catch you Fri &/or next week.

Good man Bails.

Get well Duke.

Thanks Telstra! All I needed to start the night off was the modem shitting itself, thankfully a quick right jab into the bastard actually fixed it and it runs fine now.
In Practice I hit 200 fps and cleaned up Darren and restarted my system.
Race One, by the time I fixed the modem I was 2 laps down, caught Varkay and then wiped myself out on the chicane of death, race over with 1 lap left...
Race Two, Once Cursed had sorted his car out, I flicked Traction Control on and blasted alongside Norbs before he, Pixel and Righty passed me, then, Pixel, Astro and Norbs all decided to give their positions to me, which was nice!
Had a trouble free-race, though Pix was reeling me in towards the end, so I turned ABS on and started braking so damn deep that I was expecting to find oil when I stopped.
Almost caught Ranga as he spluttered across the line and got myself 5th Place, a proud day for me, I was beside Norbs and neither of us crashed!

My bad. Dont race and rouse on Ranga.

[varaky]

WOW I am very slow. Need a lot of practice. I was shocked to come second in the first race. Had fun catch you next time

He's referring to race 2 in the race results in your first link. It was the race where hooligans trashed my car on the grid.

I had a blast. Going 3-wide down the back straight and passing Ranga in race 2 and managing to make it stick, despite grinding all the edges off 2nd gear soon after.

Ahh, thanks. Stupid brain!

[Righteous]

Good fun guys.

Turns out I can be consistently not fast enough, according to the stats .

I didn't get ANY practice in and had never raced on this track so I'll take those results. Hoping for a better showing next week.

As for rousing Ranga, I think that was fair enough Norbs. I ended muting you bastards for the race as there was too much chit chat for my liking. I don't know how you guys can drive and talk like that.

Would have been nice if a few more people had entered.

PS it's annoying that ABS and TC would keep coming back on!

My apologies once again for the tap up the top on lap 1. And to all the others that got caught up. I think it happened because I got off the throttle and the back decided it wanted to be the front.

Friday night is payback night, just a heads up.

PS Bails knows what I mean.

Beware of Astro!

I'm not scared of anyone. Who the fuck hasn't hit me yet?
