Hot Hatch 2014

[Duke]

Was just thinking I wonder how many of us have even done a lap on this combo yet? Not many I presume so it should make for a fun night then...

Anyone got a set.

[pixelboy]

Ive done 3 laps!

Racemails sent.. Ive got some network issues so if I cant race Mr Norbury will be your leader.. do as you're told!

Ha, well I did do some prac last week. Albeit in the wrong car

[norbs]

Thanks Duke for the paint job.

If you bastards could stay away from me tonight, that would be fucking awesome!

[Duke]

No worries norbs, just another variation on the default skins.

Got my racemail Pix, tks mate... sorry you can't make it but love the pw.

KNAPPO, just means you'll go quicker now.

[Righteous]

Just a little reminder for those that are new to us that may have been participating in Friday night Fun.

This is a much stricter affair where we expect you to drive respectfully at all times. No playing silly buggers during qualifying or the race. If you need to head back to the pits during a session, please make every effort to get off the racing line and not spoil someone's qualifying or race.

Looking forward to some close and fierce racing tonight lads.

[AstrO]

Wish I could race tonight... as I need to redeem myself for last nights affair. But alas, I must go to the in-laws for dinner.

[DarrenM]

I hadn't signed up in time as I didn't realise it started tonight. Can I get the pw or is the grid full?

[Bails MacKenzie]

since we no longer have the spies from XGN looking over our shoulders...
Best time (so far) around Norbsburgring sprint
1:59.43
anyone else this slow?

Will ask Darren.

Be fucked if anyone is racing around my ring!

Oh, 1:54.6

Expect to see the Orange and blue rocket at the front of the grid fuckers.

Is Darren driving and orange and blue skin??!

[Duke]

Ding, Ding, Ding... We have a winner.

[Bails MacKenzie]

Finally got the Abarth down to 1:55 with some kerb hopping, hopefully I can get that in during a qualifying lap!

[norbs]

Server is up. Can you all try and get in before qualifying please, just so as I know it is working.

Skins here... " onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

[DarrenM]

I got in, but doesn't it need to be in booking mode for people to get their selected skins?

When I was in I had the norbs skin.

[Righteous]

Yes you did

We have to allocate skins for the server

[DarrenM]

Team Norbunaga ftw then

[Duke]

Team Norbunaga ftw then

You do realise you're the Dictators decoy tonight Darren.

[Davo]

I won't be able to make it tonight

[Righteous]

Thanks all for the racing.

Very evenly matched field in the end. Was hard to catch up places once you lost them. I don't think I'll be doing any more starts from the back

See you next week.

[norbs]

Sadly, the server logs are borked, only showing practise times. Sorry gents.

Duke, did you get the race results screenies?

I am uploading the 2nd replay. Will sort out the server better for next week.

[Duke]

Sorry mate, no results screens...

All I know is that I'm sorry for hitting you Box & that then affecting you norbs in race 1.
I should have known better than to try bump Box in an attempt get him & I ahead of you.
Once again I really don't get the AC crash physics as RenZ bumped me earlier in the night & it worked ok but I guess we were going slower when he did it.

Other than that I enjoyed tonight, I was a lot more relaxed compared to last night that's for sure.
Except when Darren came up behind me in Race 2 & my car just magically jumped of the track to let him through...
w00dsy's defensive battle with Darren was great to watch, pity it came unstuck for you on the last lap mate.

[Bails MacKenzie]

Will sort out the server better for next week.

Some of us are used to waiting 2 minutes for the lights

All in all, a good race up my end, I missed race 1 because two friends are leaving for Queensland next week and this was the last chance I had to see them for at least five years.
It was a pretty rushed meeting and I didn't get a chance to tell anyone here, but still glad I saw them.

Racewise I didn't scuff the car, only left the track twice and once was in qualifying, had a great "battle" with Darren, Renz, Cursed, Righty and Norbs, all of who tried to pass me as I slipped back further down the field.
It may have been last place that I eventually got, but damn, it was well-earned!

That right there is why I fucking love this place.

Oh, and Duke, no harm done. I am pretty sure you heard me laughing about it.
