Hi there des_k! Welcome!

This is what i did when i joined, the members here are very helpful.

Now i think you should go to the 1st post and click on the 'car registration'. You will see which car is free to take and which is not. U then notify Redline of which car ure taking and off you go to the game!

Join the server and pick the car you chose and ure on!

For the skin, you can consult our skin-artist, Izznatta...smile.gif

Drive! and haf fun!

This morning on the way to work, A car bumped into my bike at around 40km/h by getting into my way, I had no time to brake at all and as a result was send off flying and missed the divider few mm's away. My left hand and leg hurts quite badly due to the huge shunt.

So hopefully will manage to recover before the race. And after this I might use car as bike although fast but not a safe means of transportation. Right now I practise gtr2 using one hand and one leg, Right foot braking cost me a lot of time, Dang. Syukur pada Tuhan Yg Maha Esa that he still decide to have me in this world and it's not my time yet.

Anyway welcome des-k, enjoy your stay and ask question. I will be very happy to reply.

That would be awesome....u see PCcrazy and Redline gone into a distance and leave u with the sound of the forest.......Im imagining the feeling of being lapped here...lol...

Congrats to all! Great race...

Congrats to podium finishers too...

I was following evohann when i made a braking mistake at la source...had scraps with Ace, Karom and Pitt...back to Evohann pursuit from 20s gap down to 12s but then back to 20s coz suddenly my harddisk started to read frantically ...almost putting me out of the race....

Imola is next!!

saw the replay... the competition from 6th to last is very brutal... sweat.gif

rclxub.gif Tell me about it....

Im lucky coz so many had unfortunate shunts...wont be 6th if everyone were on track. Had a good scrap with Pitt...looking at the replay i slipped thru him at the busstop chicane when he lost shape at the entrance...but then he actually had the line into the exit but i feel that i had more grip to dive into the inside....I was a bit too aggresive there i think...

On more is on Izznatta, we were side by side all along Blanchimont with Karom peeping close behind...up until the very quick lefthander before the busstop, i was not so sure if Izznatta was beside me or not but i need to get a decent line into that lefthander. I didnt wanna slow down, coz im afraid that karom would go out of shape..so i jerk abit to right and i touched Izznatta...he gave me the exit line...I was so glad though nothing happened to him.

I made a mistake at La Source when i was closing in on Evohahn. The 15s back gap youre talking about is me....my harddisk read frantically....i realised i forgot to turn off the race data aquisition....and cost me 7 seconds ...so i gave up the chase...and just try to bring the car home.

Learned alot from this one....PCcrazy, i had a lot of side by side excursions approaching down to eau rogue. U taught me some race ethics the other nite and i lift off most of the times last nite thru there. Otherwise the circumstances wouldnt look good at all. lol
Sorry to hear about your rhythm destroyed after play2 with us...hehehe...Lets do the 2laps stint more often so u lose ur rhythm more...lol. But we have to remember that ure actually injured after that accident!

Thanks Ryugan for being my practice buddy, learn alot from u and thanks for your setup...really helped alot for me to build up consistant pace...Good to see an 550 giving the top runner some run for their money! lol

Ok this is already press conference long......sorry for that...im just excited...LOL

Last nite's race also a good accustomisation of me to NAP....

Imola......fuh...very tight.....the only real overtaking place is into Tosa....and probably the main straight...

Lots and lots of tight tight tight corners....ppl say its Monaco without the armco barriers....LOL

QUOTE(evoHahn @ Jan 16 2007, 09:53 AM)
yeah me too. i think the only clean racing we had was at Valencia and Hockenheim. imho, we could :

i. Make the race longer (like i suggested before). its different between following a car for 5 laps out of 20 laps race (25%) and for 5 laps out of 30 laps ( 16%). we should give an option if you cant pass a car on the track, maybe you can pass them in the pits.

So far, everybody sticks with 1 stop strategy because twice stopping is still not feasible.

ii. introduce penalty system. i know redline is a bit reluctant in this area, i think it will encourage a fair racing.

and.... simple ethics of racing should be practiced by everyone.... give way when blue flagged.... brake early if your following someone into a corner .... use the rear view mirror when exiting the pits... when you off track, dont immediately get into the track, make sure the coast is clear.....and last but not least, this is not bumper car racing  wink.gif

on to imola... practice last nite... only able to clock 1.52  sweat.gif  sweat.gif  sweat.gif  i experiencing major major oversteer...

QUOTE(Raikkonen @ Jan 16 2007, 01:16 PM)
Also, when a car in front taking the outside line, the car behind pleasedon't barge in the inside line.
Sure accident (like in Brno) where the outside line car cannot see the inside line car.
CRASH!!!!!
Example saja...bukan nak kritik sesiapa  icon_rolleyes.gif
Sebab benda ni banyak berlaku dek kerana tak menyabor.
Kena sabar bila nak overtake.
Tunggu orang tu buat mistake  tongue.gif pastu overtake la.
Kalau follow Redline, payah la dia nak buat mistake since...pro.
teringat zaman F1C...banyak yang tak puashati  tongue.gif
kena gak buat rules sebab tak semua rela nak ikut rules.
*
I especially agree about the penalty part....We can appoint race stewards to look into race incident complaints and exercise penalty. It is i think is for the good of everyone, so that we dont have someone running strong infront just to be hampered by someone following too close and braking too late into corners...or car trying to do an impossible recovery from a spin as if he is the only one on the track. No offense.

I dont know if this is implementable or not....but it would be a good thing. Its up to the league taikoes...

I only managed a high 1:50s after pretty much satisfied with tyres and gearing...yet to work on diffs and suspension... sweat.gif It is very2 tight indeed....

The Imola link that PCCrazy provided should be read by all....so we can understand the track together interms of dos and donts....

Karom doode, I have not finalised any setup yet la...but u can ask Ryugan since ur car is closer in specs with his....he did a blinding 1:47s last nite... sweat.gif sweat.gif

I dunno wut our 'aliens' can do.....i think we can add Ryugan to the list...LOL

EDIT: I think test race is important here to get use racing with each other....to race in tracks like Imola u need to have trust and know what others will do in situations.

PCcrazy and i did some running together at Spa. One time i followed him down towards Eau Rouge and suddenly he jerk to the left. Fickle me thought that he gave me way or he having some kinna trouble. I cant tab the glance right button coz i was aiming for eau rouge entry apex....so i didnt know where is he or what he is doing....then i swerve into the apex and i saw him at my rear view backing up and out of the track...

Thats one lesson for me....he was being defensive....i shouldve known. This is my first time racing with ppl. Like the msg Madnoren gave before the Spa race, we are racing against each other...not AI....

Pfff..i can talk forever about this forgive me.

Setup tips one : Decrease Slow bump and slow rebound for the chassis. Slow the respond of the chassis to transition. Perfect for tracks that is smooth and requires a lot of left and sudden right turn.

Setup tips two : Play with front antiroll bar to get precise steering direction. But becareful not too much since this is one of major factors determining tyre temp. You can play with rear too if you want laugh.gif
