Anyone got video of the finishing positions last night?

Re next week's track I still haven't heard back from Vccm.

There suggestion was north loop mine was Olympic gp, personally I don't care let's just get the last race done and put the series to bed.

North loop were all familiar with most the track then again the fact Olympic is new might be a good thing as both sides have 7 days to learn it?

It takes about 10-15 mins. One of the checkpoints is a deliberate pig to find/reach.

Had a go of this yesterday morning, pretty good fun. The only checkpoint I couldn't figure out was the last one. I couldn't find a place to ford the water so I just went up on the bridge then had to go back over the bridge to finish. I guess you're supposed to go through the water then loop round on to the bridge? I kept sinking .

I think there is a really narrow bit by the supporting column in the middle of the bridge that isn't too deep and you can go across there. That's the way I went

[djdest]

I really hope its not the olympic track, north loop is far to similar to last nights track and is stupidly long!

I ended up 6th in the end. I got punted up the wrong side of a barrier on the first lap and had to respawn which lost me about 10 places down to 15th.
Rather pissed off at the time but thats just luck of the draw I suppose.
I quite enjoyed getting back up the ranks but to know you've got no chance from lap one was a bit annoying and my heart wasn't in it after that.
I heard someone else gave up on lap one for the same sort of thing?

I only have this shot of the standings, but it doesn't show everyone for some reason



Rant over!
On a brighter note, the off road racing last night was a great laugh, as was the new Paleto bay track in vans and Long haul 2

One suggestion I would like to put forward for the last race is noon and rain settings!
I know its random, but nearly every race has been in the dry

We've always used current otherwise people moan we set night and rain and practiced only that.

Current keeps it fair and out of our control.

One more race then we're all finished.

[djdest]

If its going to be north loop or that olympic crap I won't bother racing this week

How come, you've done all the others and have a good haul of points?

[djdest]

North loop is too long and too similar to the track we've just done, and the other I hate

[ChemicalChaos]

Cracking racing last night, another astounding finish by my teammate and a decent one for me (despite crashing and losing 2 places when my controller battery went flat )

I would personally vote Los Santos GP or Hipster Happy Hour as something a bit different for the final track - both are good tracks with a 3 minute lap and plenty of overtaking opportunities

[egor110]

The final race is going to be Olympic gp or if vccm don't like it north loop which was there suggestion.

They are racing red rum next so not sure there bothered just want to finish the series with us.

You're very polite - I think I only got one thumbs up when we played it last night. It is supposed to be a challenge... more challenging than I intended though, since some of the checkpoints which worked fine in the test are virtually impossible to hit in reality.

As Andy said, if you take a run up you can ford through alongside the bridge supports at the end. But going round isn't a bad option!

[ZedLeg]

Nah, like I say I enjoyed it. I'd imagine it's a bit more infuriating if there's a few people chasing the same checkpoint though . The only other checkpoint I had trouble with was the one on top of the cliff next to the houses but I'm guessing that was intentionally difficult.

Definitely a Sand King track though. I had a go in my Rancher and got stuck on the third or fourth checkpoint.

[djdest]

I love tracks like that, which are more of a challenge than a race.

Those who were in the chat last night that haven't tried Frustration that we were on about, its here

You seen to have missed Pansondowlington from the GT2 results, and our entire team from the team scores?

Panson has 50

And your team has 72 points.

I'll update the table by the morning.

[djdest]

No team score for me and challenger too

As I said table updated by the morning, take another look.

Enjoyed the race on Sunday. Exited the first corner with my main competition in front of me (and panson who I wasn't expecting to be so fast in the carbo). Jacob kenwood kindly made a mistake and got out my way and then I was left fighting with Jobbo while trying to get past Pansondowlington. Panson let us both past and I had to yield to Jobbo as we entered a corner side by side. Jobbo made a small mistake which allowed me through, then he spent the rest of the race trying to get me to crash by applying pressure over the mic, cheers buddy. The low flying fighter jet at the end was a little distracting.

Panson's time in the carbo was crazy, I'm glad he's currently not in GT1 as I don't think I would have had a chance.

I've only just played broughys olympic gp for the the first time, its going to be interesting. Its certainly different from what we've raced on so far.
