The Hub 0 Posted November 18, 2009 The Hub, it's a little awkward having a stand-in for someone not playing unless they quit the series completely. My reasoning behind this is that if you end up taking someone out then it might have an impact on their race season and we don't need any excuses :D I know this sounds a little harsh but I am trying to be fair to everyone playing. Totally understand Yan, especially after your experience at the Corkscrew. So can anyone who is interested in the 2nd league put your names forward so we can confirm there will be enough.

Alex_G60_Fanatic 0 Posted November 19, 2009 Last night i was plagued with "the hub" syndrome! also, i clearly stated that i intended to loose the second race... my S class corrado wasn't up to the corners :lol: Mind you, thinking about it i think it was VR6 where i beat him with a dodgy gear box... was two days ago Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

-=Kris=- 0 Posted November 19, 2009 BTW Matt, i managed to beat my mate in that laguna seca race in the rocco! hell yeah! altho i came 2nd over all... the spanner was shooting his mouth off too much, ended up breaking his engine! "oh, i use manual gears, cos i'm so great" shame he didn't realise that bouncing off the limiter wont help much! :lol: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

"oh, i use manual gears, cos i'm so great" shame he didn't realise that bouncing off the limiter wont help much! :lol: It's ok hiting the limiter on upshifts but if you downshift too early you will start to break the engine. I spent all the last race at Camino bouncing my car off the limiter on the run down the main straight as my gear ratios were a bit short. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mic_VR 3 Posted November 19, 2009 Would be interested in joining a second league now that I'm up and running online, feel free to add me - Mincyx. Would depend on time/day etc and I don't think I'll be competetive yet but it's all good practice. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jamin 0 Posted November 20, 2009 Right, had a little play last night messing around with setups etc. In the end I found out that I could lap quicker with the stock setup, rather than trying to be clever and lower/tweak the car etc, even the gear ratios appeared to make no difference, I must be doing something wrong! :roll: Anyway, here's a couple of cool pics after I have painted my Borbet's and slapped a couple of decals on. I've also tweaked my router to ensure that all xbox live traffic is directed straight to the xbox, not convinced this will help though, as I rarely play xbox and have the computer on at the same time. 2.8l 24v Climatronic system.pdfcorr.jpg[/attachment:3g8kge7x]corr1.jpg[/attachment:3g8kge7x] Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
