DJ Barry Hammond Posted 28 July 2008 Posted 28 July 2008 It appears i had to get out of my car just before the start to check if i had locked my front door. On getting back into the car i couldn't get any decent tunes on the radio so had fumble about for CD's to play for a 57 lap drive. After plumping for Girls Aloud's greatest hits, I got a hard on half way through the race while thinking of love machine and kept using that instead of the gear leaver - these are all execuses i'm using towards my crap performance.
Father Ted Posted 29 July 2008 Posted 29 July 2008 Shit race.Congrats to Jovan. My race strategy was perfect...
isaidno Posted 29 July 2008 Posted 29 July 2008 Not one person retired. My world rank has shot up to 1685. The clan is edging towards the top 100

Start ruined both our races. Can't belive AOWW was up in the top 5 for so long
AoWW Posted 29 July 2008 Posted 29 July 2008 Start ruined both our races. Can't belive AOWW was up in the top 5 for so long Oi! I was gutted that I dropped down later in the race.
Asha Posted 29 July 2008 Posted 29 July 2008 Oi! I was gutted that I dropped down later in the race. Still a decent first race. You were up in the points a long time
AoWW Posted 29 July 2008 Posted 29 July 2008 Still a decent first race. You were up in the points a long time Thanks. I get the feeling my performance in this next once is gonna be abysmal though. Can't get my head around adapting to changing weather conditions at all.
General Smuts Posted 29 July 2008 Posted 29 July 2008 It appears i've been booted! In my defence i have helped AoWW and my partner hasn't spoken to me to do my laps. Am i allowed back in?

Yeah I think so, enter the game code into "join mid-season" and see if theres any slots free. If not you'll just have to wait til theres a free slot

Floating Fox Posted 29 July 2008 Posted 29 July 2008 Is it the 2707 one? I just tried that but its full. I'll let you know when one becomes free. It probably will do mate
Father Ted Posted 29 July 2008 Posted 29 July 2008 Bat7's Lost 13 places in 9 laps because of my poxy gearbox!! Oh well, Andy won
lildave3 Posted 29 July 2008 Posted 29 July 2008 Right. I've retaken control, I appear to be doing well. This will change.
Gené and Tonic Posted 29 July 2008 Posted 29 July 2008 Load up my setup and stuff...the usual I made a mistake with doing a one stopper last race...put you on a 2 stopper...worked well!
the_bowman Posted 29 July 2008 Posted 29 July 2008 I think I'm going to do terrible... but I have a question. When your engineer tells you about the changes you need to make to allow for weather conditions, is that assuming you start with dry settings, or whatever the weather is for your practice laps?

Yes, that's what to adjust to from dry. It's really hard to adjust from say drizzle to monsoon. You'll get used to it. Walkers was crap when he started but now he's the highest ranked player of all of us

AoWW Posted 29 July 2008 Posted 29 July 2008 Is the advice the engineer gives (the first set) for the practice conditions tho? (eg. heavy rain) Then the 'adjustment' advice is as if you're going from bone dry to monsoon?
Asha Posted 29 July 2008 Posted 29 July 2008 Is the advice the engineer gives (the first set) for the practice conditions tho? (eg. heavy rain)Then the 'adjustment' advice is as if you're going from bone dry to monsoon? Just copy your team-mates.
