They were trying to take a picture as if they were driving? :icon_rolleyes:

Still quit driving with your damn mouse. Keep it to private practice sessions.

I hope you meant those guys.

No, not as if they were driving.

A Team Picture at the Start/Finish line or off track area after a race is not uncommon.

FYI Dino, yes it was post race, but not everyone had crossed the line, which I didn't realize at the time, so incidents WOULD have counted. I ALSO was not aware that the person involved cared so much about his incidents, as a lot of drivers (including top runners in week one) came out of the first race with 30-40 incidents, I assumed that set the tone for the league and that is 100% on me.

Could I suggest further comments on this issue and issues in the future be dealt with through PM's, so as not to clog this thread.

*cool*

Anyways, I'll post an apology in the forums later, and Ken, PLEASE, in the future, direct those with complaints, ABOUT me, directly TO me. You aren't my dad, this isn't a job, and there is no chain of command. It isn't your business or your responsibility to answer or apologize for my actions, and I hope that you understand and that you take no offense to what I'm saying, because none of it is meant to be.

Zac, nobody made a direct complaint and all I'm doing is making you guys aware of it. I'd expect that most will come to me as I was first in the League and the leader of this crew.

I'm just making you guys aware of it before it becomes an issue.

Also, running these paints means you are delegates of this Community so I ask you get used to people complaining to me.

I'm not here to take anyone's fun away but make people aware that League mentality is going to be different than your typical open to anyone race.

Nobody needs to apologize as there's been no formal complaint made. I'm just asking you all to be aware that shenanigans are not typically appreciated and let's face it; although what you guys did looked cool it was completely unnecessary.

No harm no foul. We'll just complete our cool down laps later and problem solved.

Anybody doing some Practice Palls-ing tonight; V8 @ Monza? If so, I'll be on TS in ~10 min. Mmmm this track so GOOD...

 

[Kenadian]

Yup I'm there in a few minutes myself.

 

[Slider]

Daunt? iRacing? Can't be.. I'll be on in an hour or so.

See OP for Monza race details (on bottom).

Is a late stop like that really the best strategy? I suppose you don't lose that much time but since you have to take 4 tires as well as fuel aren't the pit stops about the same?

 

[Slider]

During the 4-tire change, crew puts in 8gal. You start full because if amount of fuel needed for the race. You'd start with less if total fuel needed was less.

Just a fun show of current inter-team standings:

Driver	Starts	Laps	Inc	Pts	Beh League Leader	Beh Next B2O
Dino Topic	3	87	27	462	-258	-
Marc Gammock	3	113	51	431	-289	-31
Ken Lindberg	2	74	16	270	-450	-161
Kyle BB	1	33	5	192	-528	-78
Anthony Peeble	1	38	4	137	-583	-55
Ryan Casteline	1	20	10	108	-612	-29

I've updated the OP with relevant info.

I have a question though. Does everyone have to use 3 drops of their worst races? So even the leaders will be dropping 3 races? I'm not sure what else the drops would be used for in this case because we're not getting participation credit.

So if I race 9 races and racer x races 12 races, doesn't he still drop 3 races so we're on equal footing?

 

[Skid_Marc_]

Thats the way I understood it Daunt

 

[Daunt]

Thanks. Troy on the GRAsim forums confirmed this. Which is great news for me considering I missed the first two races.

 

[Slider]

uu..so I'm not losing that much for crashing out

 

[Daunt]

Well you only get three crash out / rage quits. :icon_cheesygrin:

 

[Slider]

I legitimately crashed out that bad. I used the free reset on the first one. I left to not bother you guys
