B2O iRacing 24H of Nürburgring Team Discussion

Probably not a bad idea to cut the replay into 3 or 6-hour sections. Just make sure that at the start and after every save you press the start clipping mark in the replay control, otherwise you'd have to go back to find it (and big jumps in replays take ages).

i'll prolly save big parts aswell

i'm already missing the constant teamspeak banter
rewatching stream in background to get back into it

if only i hadn't lost us the race singlehandedly, we wouldn't have lost the race. and won top-split for sure
all jokes aside, it was a great event. looking forward to the next one!

this clip is genius, rly sums up the event xD

Yeah! Tough six hours to start the event. Was pretty disheartening to have two meatballs for over 30 minutes of repairs, but you guys stuck with it, confident things would shake up, and they finally did! Really appreciate everyone who came together and hope everyone enjoyed it, and look forward to Le Mans!

Don't worry Sam, I cost us a pretty sure 10th place by letting the car catch me out late in a stint and sliding in to a wall. Too focused on saving fuel, not focused enough on hitting marks.

 

[Sam Roselaar]

i'm pretty sure everyone makes mistakes on the ring, even Noël (it was on the last lap but it still counts ). i found it pretty funny that when i scrolled through all the cars after 23 hours not a single one looked like it had survived The Ring. maybe top split had some survivors. (now we have a goal for N24 2018)

me losing the race singlehandedly was (hopefully ) just a joke by the team. because i was too focussed on getting that 6th position.

Hello Deb & guys, I would like to thank you all for allowing me to drive with the team and for your support throughout the event! I had a great time and am proud of our achievement as a team! I was tired afterwards, but also felt a great sense of achievement! Thank you all!

As mistakes happen on the ring, I was pretty bummed after iRacing decided to freeze my frames for a bit in the middle of flight.... But this is also where i feel the team was supportive and that is worth a big compliment in my book. I'm still trying to sort out what/why as I believe technology should just work, but should know better... I have forgotten any other incidents I might have caused, selective memory lapse I know we finished

I look back at a great event, and Ill see you all out there! Thank you!

 

[Theo Ray Space]

Oh and yes, that is our car. I ran a paint Edu Vallim made for me for this event Bowser is my hero

 

[Deb]

Hey Theo, thanks for driving with us, had a blast All of us had some kind of issues, it happens, it's just part of it. We hope you can drive with us some more!

B2O 24 HR Nurburgring. . . to the tune of Cutting Crews I Just Died in Your Arms Tonight

I'm at Nordschliefe, with Porsches to chase . .
I'm driving by proxy, traffic keeps me off pace
Yet I am thrilled to hit the Karussel each and every time

Oh I drive the Green Hell tonight
It really is one insane race
I drive the Green Hell tonight, hope I don't make Lauda's mistake

Oh, I drive the Green Hell tonight
Full throttle on Tiergarten straight
I drive the Green Hell tonight, will I walk away


Oh, for you youngens not part of the MTV Generation, here's the video

I already said I couldn't get this stupid song out of my mind yesterday but you just had to hammer it in extra hard today didn't you Deb?

Well another Endurance Race in the books and I want to take this opportunity to thank each and every one of you who participated.

This thanks is not only directed at those of you talented Drivers who chose to adorn our livery on track. I also thank the folks on Twitter, tweeting and re-tweeting, the Twitch viewership who supported us up to and during the event and even the other Teams who stopped by updating us on their situations.

These Endurance Races bring so many people together and are some of the most socially rewarding events I've ever been fortunate to be a part of.

Thank you all!

Totally agree, that is why I like endurance racing the best, it is a full team effort and that makes it so much more fun

 

[Noodleguitar]

Thanks for another great time guys. My expectation was that we could have done well in the first/second split for a while in the race. Instead, we got wrecked out on lap 1 in the 3rd split

It was still a lot of fun to try to get back what we could and to push the hell out of that car when it got a bit more broken.

Big thanks to Marc and Sam on our team for staying awake almost all race and for the competitive, yet nonchalant spirit. Good job to the other team as well, I know many of you have gone from seeing the 'Ring as a massive death trap to something you can enjoy driving.
