paperbag SORRY IDLEWILLO!!!

I managed to avoid you in the Enduro races (well apart from when Lukebird lagged out & I hit you - Honest!) but i do accept full responsibilty for Silverstone. Please take the magnet off the Porsche next time....

Great racing though and again shows that the format should work well. After 25 laps there were still battles for 1st & 2nd and battles further back for 3rd & 4th etc.

Great fun.

So as agreed we're all up for kicking things off this Saturday evening then? hehe
rofl classic. Yes i think we have got it, close racing down to the wire. Magic.

Don't worry, I'm sure it was my fault (genuinely!).
Like I said, I was having pretty bad lag problems.
I'll need to sort it out before I can get back to racing, I'm too much of a liability otherwise! hehe

It's a real bd, as I don't seem to be able to work out where the problem is at present! frown

Luke it's fine at least you've got a genuine excuse, mine is purely down to a lack of driving ability.....redcard

Full damage you say.. I'd be up for giving this a go.

Unless I'm the one limping and stuttering around for 24.5 laps following a first corner pile up - then I'll be grumbling that it's a rubbish idea and that we should never have even considered it!

In Forza can you come into the pits to have damage repaired like you could in the old WRC games?

Yes but it only fixes mehcanical damage not aero parts.

It's just going to be a race to the first corner to punt everyone else's spoliers & wings off! laugh


Then you can spend 24 laps struggling with oversteer and no downforce!

There's a 'limited' damage setting, isn't there? If we had issues with contact I think it'd definitely be worth doing but I think we're OK on that front. Might make things interesting but it might make things worse too, especially if it ends up breaking the pack up and we lose the close racing we seem to have.

Nothing new there then!? laugh

Good fun last night, had a few great battles with people!

Here are a few quick snaps of the GTO's from afterwards.









Loads more but they are the only ones I could be bothered uploading just now! hehe

I only suggest for a laugh to see what would happen but not to do on league night.

The only problem with Sunday nights after TG is that if we can't fill the lobby the others from the "Alternative Championship" won't be able to add to the numbers as that's when they race. The thought of doing a 25 lap race with only say 4/5 cars isn't as attractive to me. (Only my view, but worth airing!)

Gruffy has asked if we could change to a Tuesday because he could not make Thursdays.
