GT-R WC 2016: Mod Released

[Gerudo Dragon]

Kun votes for Istanbul.

[SeedStriker]

Union votes for Imola

[SuperAguri]

Team Name: Gulf Racing
Starting Driver: Saeed Al Faisal, Male, Saudi Arabian - (if it is OK with SuperAguri for him to race for my GT team after his F1RWRS retirement)

Very much so, I was thinking that he should be in GT racing as he wiki page says he had GT success with a 2nd in class at Le Mans with the late Dave McFaste and Sam Keppler.

[DemocalypseNow]

Updated IBR Scuderia Alitalia liveries.

Main changes;

• Door numbers changed to bolder font for easier identification
• Door numbers now colour-coded along with windscreen banner and rear wing endplates
• Driver names moved to rear windscreen
• Car number replaces driver names on front windscreen

[RealRacingRoots]

Quick update to note a few things of importance:

*If FloProAct continues to stop existing, (he hasn't been on since April 13th) AeroKings will be kicked out of the series. The plan will be for them not to make the trip to North America and not continue racing afterwards except for the Super GP. At this point, I am not sure if I will have someone take their place or not.

*The Pre-Season Test is confirmed for Imola. It will be a 2 day test with each day having a race simulation (2 hour practice session) and a qualifying simulation (15 minute qualifying session).

*When you announce a replacement driver, you MUST PM me his/her/its ratings. Otherwise, he/she/it will use the old driver's ratings with the ratings average going up to 2.5. That's what ya get for being lazy.

Otherwise, uhhh, we're waiting for the RWRS season as a whole to heat up again.

I finally got around to finishing my main car for the non-championship race. Can you put it in GTR2 so I can see my errors?

Here are the files uploaded in .psd format as you requested:

UPDATED FILES: http://www.mediafire.com/folder/u49impm ... 016_%23141

I have not started the second car (the charity one) yet, so I dont know how long that car will take. I know that I dont want to start it until the first car's errors are fixed so I know the layout of the file when placed in GTR2.

[RealRacingRoots]

*The Nismo logo on the wing and Nissan font on the left door are flipped wrong.

*And do not flatten the image. It makes it a pain to add transparency to the windows and headlamps, and I would have been able to make the fixes myself.

Otherwise, everything looked good ta me, just need to make the number more visible. (green on white isn't the easiest to see)

Sorry for sounding uninformed, but what do you mean by "flattening"?

I just exported it from GIMP into a .psd format

I just exported it from GIMP into a .psd format

Flatten the image refers to merging all the layers into one flat layer.

Well on my gimp file everything is in layers save for the livery since I already told you that the "PAINT HERE" section doesnt work on GIMP.

I would guess that its being caused by exporting the file into a .psd file. Should I try to send it as a GIMP format (.xcf)?

Sure, I see no reason why not.

Alright, Ive updated the files. Click on the link on my first post again to get the updated files.

[CaptainGetz12]

@RRR have you tested my updated files yet? I put them on the original link if your wondering where it is.

Indded I have, everything looks good.

If you can, may you update my car's appearance on the first post's "completed liveries" link? I needed to take a look at something on the car and how it looks which I may change.

The Pre-Season test at Monza has started, I am doing a live chat of the first session via the IRC Chat.

[Gerudo Dragon]

Chat log from the pre-season test:

Code: Select all

20:46:53: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> You join us from sunny Monza for the first day of the official GTR World Championship pre-season test.
20:48:41: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> It is a big cold here in Italy, but it's a clear day for the moment
20:49:08: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> Weather reports dictate that wet weather is on the way, it will be overcasty by the end of this longer session.
20:49:28: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> So expect the qualifying simulation-dedicated session to be a wet one.
20:49:50: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> and the first cars are already on track
20:49:53: <Kun_Engineering> hmm, i think i made my drivers okay at wet driving
20:50:11: <captain_getz> the high speed ring entries arent part of the testing are they?
20:50:13: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> the Belgio and one of the Ambrose-Mian Ferrari 550s
20:50:18: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> No, they are not.
20:50:52: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> Both Factory Corvettes are now exiting the pit lane
20:50:53: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> Wait
20:50:59: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> The test is at Imola
20:51:10: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> Knew somethign was wrong :P
20:51:16: <Klon_Rules> great ficking job
20:51:29: <Kun_Engineering> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1ytCEuuW2_A
20:51:31: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> I doubt Voecklerrhea would have minded either way
20:52:02: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> OOookay
20:52:06: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> Now at Imola
20:52:23: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> Same weather report, it is February and we are near the Mediterranean Sea afterall
20:53:06: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> As the track has now gone green, the session is underway
20:53:32: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> As the Malaysian Nestra Aya leads the way
20:53:51: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> Event officials have told the teams to get in as much time as possible on track now before the rain comes later in the day
20:54:55: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> As more teams continue to go on track
20:55:29: <seedstriker> What are the radars showing right now? 30 min to rain? An hour?
20:55:52: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> the rain is forecasted to show up in the afternoon, after this race-simulation session ends
20:55:54: <FMecha> Captain_Getz you have a reply at Warped thread.
20:56:05: <Voecklerrhea> I prefer Imola anyway :P
20:56:06: <FMecha> Is the Aurico car on track yet?
20:56:10: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> but the rain will be in full effect during the qualifying-simulation later on
20:56:27: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> Both Aurico Listers are on track
20:56:45: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> As Aya comes across the line to start the first lap of the day
20:56:47: <FMecha> how they are doing?
20:56:50: <captain_getz> well I'll ask here then: what does "total performance" mean in that slot of my entry?
20:56:56: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> (clicking on a different window will cause the test to pause
20:57:00: <seedstriker> Damn! Rain for first real run is like the lottery
20:57:06: <captain_getz> *that goes with "garage number"
20:57:12: <FMecha> The skill number on xkoranate xml file, captain_getz
20:57:38: <FMecha> Pretty much as used in the F1RMGP Bathurst Enduro
20:57:47: <captain_getz> the what?
20:57:50: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> Aya managed to get past the Puyo-Puyo Lister before too much time was lost
20:58:00: <FMecha> the total performance number
20:58:07: <FMecha> it is skill and consistency added up
20:58:13: <FMecha> and the car performance number
20:58:20: <seedstriker> Where are the Union Saver vettes?
20:58:23: <captain_getz> for that one entry?
20:58:24: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> Everyone is now on track
20:58:27: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> No one has set a time yet
20:58:47: <FMecha> captain_getz, yep
20:59:00: <FMecha> the formula is skill + consistency + car
20:59:11: <FMecha> in your case, the car performance value is 165 (BMW)
20:59:32: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> As Aya powers out of the last chicane, his first lap is a 1:44.935
20:59:56: <captain_getz> and my performance cap of 325 includes both of my cars' performance?
21:00:00: <FMecha> yes
21:00:16: <captain_getz> so I have 325 points total for both drivers?
21:00:25: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> Matteo Rossi and Joey Alliot also cross the line, Rossi 1.2 seconds faster than the factory lister
21:00:36: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> Alliot is a second clear as well
21:00:44: <captain_getz> *or 325 for each driver/car?
21:00:53: <FMecha> for each driver
21:01:01: <captain_getz> ok, thank yo
21:01:03: <captain_getz> *you
21:01:04: <FMecha> each driver require different slot
21:01:18: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> As Rafa Modena goes to the top with a 1:43.19
21:01:27: <FMecha> remember, one garage slot is only for one driver, captain_getz
21:01:31: <GTR_WORLD_FEED>  4 tenths clear of Darren Cardel in the factory Lambo
21:01:49: <captain_getz> alright then
21:01:56: <FMecha> thank you
21:02:02: FMecha AuricoAutosport
21:02:12: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> van Walwijk in the Vittore Lister puts hin a first lap that is 7 hundreths faster than Modena
21:02:24: <captain_getz> and its pretty pointless to vote for a track at this point? :P
21:02:30: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> very.
21:02:57: <FMecha> on Warped, captain_getz?
21:03:00: <FMecha> if it is, yes
21:03:04: <captain_getz> yeah
21:03:04: <FMecha> because the season already started
21:03:09: <Salamander> indeed
21:03:29: <Salamander> probably a bad idea for every series, i think they all have their calendars sorted right now
21:03:56: <FMecha> Salamander, are you referring to GT-R or Warped?
21:04:02: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> now that everyone is done their first lap, the field spread is about 2.3 seconds
21:04:12: <Salamander> key word in that statement was *every*, fmecha
21:04:18: <Kun_Engineering> we're first right?
21:04:20: <FMecha> Oh
21:04:38: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> Bovy is 23rd, with a 1:44.4
21:04:45: <Kun_Engineering> oh come on John :(
21:04:51: <GTR_WORLD_FEED>  1.2 seconds off the lead
21:04:56: <AuricoAutosport> remind me, how I format my text Kun_Engineering?
21:05:04: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> remember, hes in the Inferior Ferrari 575 GTC
21:05:20: <Kun_Engineering> well i would've got a Lister storm if they didn't run out :|
21:05:38: <Kun_Engineering> i use "/style fg_color 8 bg_color 2"
21:05:57: <AuricoAutosport> 1,5oh
21:06:00: <Aeroracing> GTR WORLD FEED?
21:06:01: <Aeroracing> WTF?
21:06:11: <Kun_Engineering> yeah this is the GTR pre-season test
21:06:18: <Aeroracing> Ah, well
21:06:20: <AuricoAutosport> 2,9testing
21:06:22: <Salamander> 5,2do we have to explain gtr to you as well? :p
21:06:24: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> John Magnus in the Aeroracing Vette is third
21:06:25: <Salamander> 5,2gah
21:06:33: <Salamander> 5,2that was not the color scheme i was aiming for
21:06:35: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> Second best Indie
21:06:42: <AuricoAutosport> 2,1hang on
21:06:55: <AuricoAutosport> 1,3ignore this
21:06:58: <Salamander> 2,6is this better?
21:07:02: <Salamander> 2,6... not really
21:07:04: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> As he gets a little wide at Rivazza
21:07:11: <AuricoAutosport> 1,5I am trying for yellow and black
21:07:25: <Kun_Engineering> if you want to test you can send PMs to yourself ;)
21:07:28: <AuricoAutosport> 1,6this needs some trial and error
21:07:29: <captain_getz> ahhhhhh, too many colors!!!
21:07:37: <Salamander> 2,5im just randomly testing :D
21:07:38: <AuricoAutosport> 1,7sorry
21:07:42: <Klon_Rules> yeah, you bathplug goofs - stop colouring around!
21:07:43: <captain_getz> and they all look hideous
21:07:48: <AuricoAutosport> yes
21:07:48: <AuricoAutosport> is this the team color?
21:07:48: <Klon_Rules> FACK!
21:07:49: <Salamander> 2,5i could but that wouldnt be fun :D
21:07:49: <Kun_Engineering> mine doesn't :D
21:07:56: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> It looks like someone Voimted a rainbow
21:07:57: <AuricoAutosport> finally, bathplug yeah
21:08:19: <AuricoAutosport> Who is driving the Aurico cars at the moment?
21:08:27: <seedstriker> C'mon, man! It's difficult to read like this
21:08:41: <Aeroracing> I agree with Klon_Rules, stop messing with color fonts
21:08:47: <Aeroracing> Indeed
21:08:58: <Aeroracing> I am going to ignore all messages that are difficult to read
21:09:00: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> Itoh and Vergne
21:09:07: <AuricoAutosport> pace?
21:09:13: <Klon_Rules> I don't think that will scare them :P
21:09:14: <AuricoAutosport> how they are driving now?
21:09:21: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> Itoh is last, Vergne 21st
21:09:34: <Kun_Engineering> mine's easy to read
21:09:45: <AuricoAutosport> TEAM RADIO: "Come on, you need to push it, Ito-san!"
21:09:48: <Aeroracing> Salamander's is the worst
21:09:53: <Aeroracing> It's almost unreadable
21:09:55: <AuricoAutosport> mine's easy to read, too
21:10:16: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> Looks like a car wasn't added into the test
21:10:20: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> Dunno which one,
21:10:26: <Aeroracing> HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
21:10:29: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> But they've been added and the test is resumed
21:10:51: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> As Giovanni Roda has boxed, he's done his first stint
21:11:16: <Salamander> yeah i was just kinda messing around there
21:11:19: <Salamander> ill stop now
21:12:00: <Salamander> ... is the wiki down for anyone else atm?
21:12:09: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> John Zimmer in the Zonda is currently fastest
21:12:12: <Klon_Rules> tsehehehehehehe
21:12:17: <Klon_Rules> watka looks like a nerd
21:12:25: <Klon_Rules> I'm going to mock him relentlessly for that :D
21:12:33: <Kun_Engineering> i can't get on it
21:12:55: <Voecklerrhea> How does one do backgrounds?
21:13:07: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> Joey Alliot is also done his first stint, he is 14th
21:13:12: <Salamander> bg_color *insert number here*

21:14:34: <captain_getz> hmm, and I even get the best cars in the Wapred Series from FPA?
21:14:54: <Aeroracing> Wapred Series?
21:15:02: <Salamander> fmecha's series
21:15:09: <Voecklerrhea> 1,4Let's see if this has worked then
21:15:15: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> As Llosa gets into the sand at Villenuve, he will continue on without any damage
21:15:17: <Voecklerrhea> 1,4Team colours! Yeah!
21:15:17: <Salamander> he uses video game tracks
21:15:21: <captain_getz> sweet

21:15:34: <Aeroracing> What game doos he use?
21:15:38: <Voecklerrhea> Forza Alitalia :D
21:15:40: <Aeroracing> Ah crap then
21:15:42: <Voecklerrhea> nooooo what
21:15:47: <Salamander> :D
21:15:54: <captain_getz> so whose hot and whose not for GTRWC testing so far?
21:16:00: <Voecklerrhea> ok
21:16:01: <Voecklerrhea> how about now
21:16:03: <Voecklerrhea> :D
21:16:08: <captain_getz> NO
21:16:18: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> Whos Hot: The Vittore Lister looks to be the best Indie so far
21:16:34: <Aeroracing> Is my 'vette doing well?
21:16:51: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> Magnus is P17
21:17:05: <Kun_Engineering> i guess John is still struggling
21:17:06: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> Garrido is P21
21:17:24: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> Bovy is just ahead of Garriodo, by a few hundreths
21:17:29: <Voecklerrhea> is Rafa still top of the timesheets? :P
21:17:38: <Kun_Engineering> gah may aswell give up now :/
21:17:43: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> TOP 10:
21:18:18: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> Rosenforth 31 - John Zimmer - 1:42.829
21:18:19: <AuricoAutosport> Are the Auricos still doing rejectfully?
21:18:38: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> Vittore 0 - Denis van Walwijk - 1:42.955
21:18:49: <AuricoAutosport> TEAM RADIO: "Go, go, try to push harder" (to both Itoh and Modena)
21:19:09: <IBR-Ferrari> uh, Modena? He's on my team! :P
21:19:09: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> Union Saver 26 - Ricardo Llosa - 1:42.972
21:19:19: <AuricoAutosport> *Vergne
21:19:24: <seedstriker> Yes! Top 3!
21:19:24: <AuricoAutosport> TEAM RADIO: "Go, go, try to push harder" (to both Itoh and Vergne)
21:19:44: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> Alitalia 28 - Giovanni Roda - 1:43.019
21:19:48: <Salamander> fmecha that rule you proposed in the f1rwrs thread is a really really bad idea
21:20:18: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> Amrbose Milan 42 - Matteo Rossi - 1:43.083
21:20:37: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> Solvalou 03 - Darren Cardel - 1:43.259
21:20:53: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> Alitalia 27 - Rafael Modena - 1:43.275
21:20:57: <Klon_Rules> well, it is difficult to impliment without crippling teams and/or making engines irrelevant
21:21:06: <Salamander> yup
21:21:28: <AuricoAutosport> proposal canned, then
21:21:33: <AuricoAutosport> and the wiki is now accessible
21:21:36: <AuricoAutosport> oops, 12:21 am here
21:21:43: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> Rojo 32 - Fran van Nifterick - 1:43.343
21:22:17: <captain_getz> is the AeroKing Viper out yet?
21:22:27: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> GP Racing 19 - Gerald Pereria - 1:43.379
21:22:41: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> BITW 11 - Du Lei -1:43.412
21:22:53: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> That is your top 10 early on in the session
21:23:07: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> The Aerokings Viper is 29th
21:23:46: <captain_getz> I guess the Viper was more rejectful than I thought
21:23:57: <Klon_Rules> go Lei
21:23:59: <Klon_Rules> go Lei
21:24:07: <Kun_Engineering> go Bovy
21:24:09: <Kun_Engineering> go Bovy
21:24:24: <IBR-Ferrari>  4th and 7th, not bad
21:24:59: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> Jimmy Rosenforth and Antonio Fazio are 12th and 13th in the other factory Pagani and Lambo, Mantovani in a Chris Short 575 is 11th
21:25:29: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> It looks like Fazio is being held up by Mantovani on the road
21:26:18: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> As Mantovani goes wide at Villenuve, Fazio has a chance to get past at the hairpin
21:26:50: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> As Joey Alliot in a Ambrose Milan Ferrari goes to 10th
21:27:08: <GTR_WORLD_FEED>  3 tenths off his temate
21:27:12: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> teammate
21:27:26: <captain_getz> and who is deas last then?
21:27:27: <captain_getz> *dead
21:27:53: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> Rossi seems to be having a bit of a handfull on corner exit
21:28:00: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> got it all wrong getting onto the pit straight
21:28:04: <seedstriker> Let's talk about the rejects of the season
21:28:12: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> Last is the Puyo-Puyo Lister
21:28:24: <GTR_WORLD_FEED>  2.3 seconds off the pace
21:28:53: <captain_getz> I thought Vittore was 2nd fastest
21:29:00: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> they are
21:29:17: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> Puyo-Puyo is Aerond's team who is being lent a lister from Vittore
21:30:23: <captain_getz> oh, you mean Vittore's B-team?
21:30:38: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> not really
21:30:38: <Aeroracing> They need Mark Dagnall ASAP
21:32:10: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> teams are trying to use as much real estate at the exit of Villenuve as possible
21:32:15: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> some dirt is on track
21:33:10: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> As Fazio is still behind the Mantovani driven Chris Short Ferrari
21:34:13: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> As Fazio gets into the Back of him at the exit of Tosa! The italian is not pleased with the blocking
21:39:30: <IBR-Ferrari> oh, AcurioAutosport, I see you redacted your idea
21:39:32: <IBR-Ferrari> which is good
21:39:42: <IBR-Ferrari> because it was not practical at all!
21:39:52: <IBR-Ferrari> Forcing engines onto customers who don't want them...
21:41:21: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> It looks like the Event Officials will talk with the Chris Short team after the end of the session.
21:43:15: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> As the Puyo-Puyo Lister Jumps to 18th with the last lap of their most recent stint
21:45:57: <Kun_Engineering> http://www.f1rejects.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=6040&p=251317#p251317
21:46:41: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> Once the session ends (which i may do rather soon, not much has changed) could someone post the chatlog
21:46:45: <captain_getz> so the roesnforth pagani is fastest in testing? who is slowest now?
21:47:17: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> The Itoh Aurio Lister
21:48:23: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> As Ricardo Llosa posts a blinder
21:48:33: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> he is now 2 tenths clear of Zimmer
21:49:05: <Salamander> miller and cassidy are 3rd and 5th in the championship
21:49:06: <Salamander> lolwat
21:49:12: <Kun_Engineering> some surprises in there, for example i don't think anyone expected scrattenheim to be 2nd
21:49:30: <Kun_Engineering> well cassidy was 3rd in long beach
21:49:41: <Salamander> millers qualified like crap every race though
21:49:48: <Salamander> which is 2, but still..
21:49:49: <Salamander> .
21:49:51: <Kun_Engineering> and miller has consistently scored, 5th and 6th
21:50:35: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> ServiaWinsLol?
21:50:37: <Kun_Engineering> why were people surprised when scrattenheim lead in long beach?
21:50:45: <Salamander> because hes crap
21:50:51: <Salamander> have you seen him in f1rgp2c
21:51:10: <Kun_Engineering> is he just slow or does he crash alot?
21:51:14: <Salamander> also you missed donnelly
21:51:23: <Salamander> the worst
21:51:25: <Salamander> both
21:51:34: <Salamander> and hes not entertaining about it to make up the difference
21:51:45: <Salamander> hes like the calvin brooks of the 90s
21:52:04: <seedstriker> And the vettes are getting better!
21:52:09: <Kun_Engineering> GTR_WORLD_FEED that's the way i think the championship will pan out if Jefferson Rodrigues confirms his team every 3 races, which i doubt he'll do
21:52:33: <Kun_Engineering> oh bathplug yeah donnelly, forgot to add him to the excel
21:52:35: <seedstriker> At least one. Where's the second Saver?
21:52:42: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> Riberio in the 25 Union Saver Vette is 28th
21:53:24: <Kun_Engineering> so Seriva might be smiling now, but he might have to look for another drive after michigan
21:53:52: <Salamander> if mcintyre continues to be useless, ill have one for him
21:54:04: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> Modena and van Nigterick have the exact same time, 1:43.275
21:54:33: <IBR-Ferrari> huh
21:54:36: <IBR-Ferrari> tied for first I hope?
21:54:48: <seedstriker> Wow, what a difference...
21:55:29: <seedstriker> Is this a case of Fisichellitis?
21:57:31: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> Tied for 7th IBR-Ferrari
21:58:49: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> So it looks like not much is happeneing right now, will fast forward to 20 mins left in the session
21:59:34: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> As Roda jumps to 2nd on the times
21:59:42: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> He is 1 and a half tenths off of Llosa
22:00:15: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> seven hundreths faster than |immer
22:00:16: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> Zimmer
22:01:41: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> Rossi pips van Walwijk by 2 hundreths, is now the leading Independent in fourth
22:03:06: <Kun_Engineering> Andretti's only scored 1 point :O
22:03:17: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> Perfectly okay with this
22:03:24: <Kun_Engineering> wHaT???
22:03:30: <Kun_Engineering> how can you dislike michael andretti?
22:03:42: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> it's not that i dislike him
22:04:00: <Kun_Engineering> oh well...
22:04:28: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> Llosa finds another tenth, top time is a now a 1:42.426
22:04:28: <Salamander> how can you dislike michael andretti?
22:04:50: <Salamander> well, i dont think its *that* hard....
22:04:55: <Salamander> its not like hes james hinchcliffe or anything...
22:05:00: <Klon_Rules> Meh
22:05:05: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> it's just that I don't care for him
22:05:09: <Klon_Rules> Hinchcliffe robbed Sato of his second win
22:05:13: <Klon_Rules> that makes him not nice
22:05:22: <SuperAguri> 16,3 How is Saeed Al Faisal doing?
22:05:30: <Salamander> except for the fact that james hinchcliffe is awesome
22:05:36: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> As it looks like there was a crash on track
22:05:42: <Kun_Engineering> of course when a Merc driver robs and Audi driver of a win that's being nice :P
22:05:42: <Salamander> and he passed sato fair and square
22:05:47: <Kun_Engineering> *an
22:05:52: <Salamander> it wasnt a robbery
22:05:52: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> Mantovani has showed up in the pit lane without his hood or front bumper
22:06:18: <Salamander> more like total and complete failure on ekstrom and his father's part
22:06:27: <Salamander> and the stewards to be fair
22:06:29: <seedstriker> Keep pushing, Ricardo! Push!
22:06:33: <Klon_Rules> yeah,
22:06:40: <Klon_Rules> because Audi is full o' cunts
22:06:50: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> It looks like no one else has damage, he got it wrong somewhere all by himself
22:06:57: <Salamander> and hinchcliffe is the furthest thing from a James Hunt
22:07:02: <Klon_Rules> and Sato kind of is not a James Hunt
22:07:08: <Kun_Engineering> there needs to be a DTM team called the Saudis in the Audis
22:07:12: <Kun_Engineering> :P
22:07:17: <SuperAguri>  How is Saeed Al Faisal doing?
22:07:17: <Salamander> :D
22:07:18: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> Saeed Al Faisal is 21st
22:07:35: <SuperAguri> He was doing much better in the pre pre season tests :P
22:07:36: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> It looks like you caught him on a good day at Dubai
22:07:53: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> Dubai may have suited him better
22:07:56: <Kun_Engineering> hinch is alright, i guess
22:08:18: <SuperAguri>  Push prince, push. Get into the top 15 at least
22:08:35: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> A lot more cars are in the garage now
22:08:36: <Kun_Engineering> also michael andretti isn't anywhere near a James Hunt ;)
22:08:40: <Salamander> hinch is awesome
22:08:47: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> the clouds have showed up over Imola, no signs of the rain yet
22:08:48: <Klon_Rules> have I mentioned I am happy about the Formula E race in Berlin?
22:08:48: <Salamander> hes such a cool guy
22:08:55: <Salamander> i think you have, yes
22:08:58: <Klon_Rules> good
22:09:06: <Salamander> well, that you were going to it, at least
22:09:23: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> You better cheer Drayson on
22:09:42: <Salamander> i assume its something along the lines of my reaction to the circuit of wales
22:09:49: <SuperAguri>  How is Saeed Al Faisal doing?
22:09:55: <GTR_WORLD_FEED>  21st
22:10:05: <SuperAguri>  Sorry, press up by accident :P
22:10:08: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> He is boxing this lap it looks like
22:10:21: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> Nope, it's a out lap
22:10:27: <Kun_Engineering> is our Ferrari still shite?
22:10:36: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> The Kun car is 19th
22:10:43: <SuperAguri>  21st out of what number of drivers?
22:10:43: <Kun_Engineering> so yes :)
22:10:45: <Kun_Engineering> :(
22:10:52: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> there are 30 cars
22:11:13: <SuperAguri> So he is better then approx 1/3rd of the field
22:11:15: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> Currently last is the AeroKings Viper, as Itoh found a few tenths
22:11:45: <SuperAguri> American cars have a fear of turning right
22:11:55: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> Nah,
22:11:59: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> The Viper is just old
22:12:23: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> The Viper is in it's second to last year of homologation
22:12:54: <Salamander> also floproact runs aerokings, and hasnt been around in months
22:13:17: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> Still not sure if i'll have a team taking slot 30
22:13:26: <SuperAguri> ah absentee owner weight penalty
22:14:11: <SuperAguri> i need tea! be back soon
22:14:19: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> Only 4 cars on track as of right now
22:14:27: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> Alot of teams are done their programmes for today
22:14:54: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> And as i say that, the count goes to 3
22:15:10: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> Jimmy Rosenforth, Heizo Takekawa and Saeed Al Faisal are left on track
22:17:26: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> It's getting a bit darker here at Imola, the incoming weather has cooled down the ambient by a few degrees
22:18:52: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> With a few minutes left, Al Faisal begins his In-Lap, it looks like everyone is done with the first test session of the day
22:19:29: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> And that is confirmed, the track is clear. No one has the intent to go out again, the session is done.
22:20:30: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> Remaining on top is the Union Saver 26 Corvette
22:21:26: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> As we are getting reports from the pit lane that the rain is beginning to fall, we will return in a few hours with the qualifying simulation from imola

SESSION ONE TEST RESULTS:

Weather: Dry -> Overcast



http://i1281.photobucket.com/albums/a502/RealRacingRoots/GT-R%20WC%20Results/GTRWCTest1Results_zps5f6de1f0.png

Pierre Mantovanvi has been asked to meet with Test Officials after his dangerous driving, including persistently blocking the 02 Lamborghini, going off track persistently, and causing the only crash during the test, where he damage the front of his Ferrari in the last sector on the track.

[Gerudo Dragon]

Gahhh! We would be first if we weren't stuck with this POS Ferrari!

[RealRacingRoots]

SESSION TWO TEST RESULTS

Weather: Heavy Rain - Teams were forced to use the full wet tires during this session.



http://i1281.photobucket.com/albums/a502/RealRacingRoots/GT-R%20WC%20Results/GTRWCTest2Results_zpsa97f9fe7.png

With it being the qualifying simulation, everyone wanted to show their pace. The main areas were drivers were going off was Acque Minerali and Variante Alta, with the the second being where the only accident was. Darren Cardel was following the Kjellerup Ferrari when the Dane aquaplaned on exit, Cardel had no where to go and ran into him. The current weather cell looks to be staying in the area and will still be around for the first session tomorrow.


The second day of tests will have the 2nd drivers taking the helm, unless you post otherwise. Catarina Lopes will be in the BITW Lambo, Depault will be in the JLD Saleen, Larby in the Kjellerup Ferrari, and Jong-Sung in the Belgio Ferrari.

[DemocalypseNow]

Welp, Modena second slowest. Well, that's why Mignolet will always be the qualifier!

[Hound55]

Seems like neither Alliot or Rossi like the rain. Can't blame them, cause I don't either

[Onxy Wrecked]

I'm pleased with how the rain driving has gone so far.

23:14:56: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> As Catarina Lopes goes to 2nd on the times
23:15:02: <Stramala> I do wonder why my ex drivers have only suddenly decided to be fast
23:15:14: <Stramala> why couldn't they have done this in single seaters?!
23:15:44: <dark77> alot of drivers don't have single seater success but are good GT racers
23:15:51: <dark77> for example, Peter Kox
23:16:01: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> Helena Boveri goes to 4th in the Rojo, there are 4 Lambos in the top 5 now
23:16:09: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> the rain is beginning to slow down in intensity
23:17:24: <Aeroracing> Guess what?
23:17:29: <Aeroracing> JonF1 got banned :CD
23:17:34: <dark77> *claps*
23:17:42: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> BOOM HEADSHOT
23:17:58: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> Dennis Mignolet goes to the top!
23:18:05: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> He is the first to post a time in the 1:48s!
23:18:36: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> Lopes and Mori jump into the 1:49s
23:20:11: <SuperAguri> so where is the single driver team of Gulf racing?
23:20:11: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> Lopes improves her time by four tenths
23:20:21: <Stramala> M I G N O L E T
23:20:27: <dark77> M O R I
23:20:31: <Salamander> you banned another zyla?
23:20:34: <Aeroracing> Yes
23:20:37: <dark77> why does Zyla have to take out all his anger on us for being banned everywhere?
23:20:49: <Stramala> because we are the only website with inactive admins
23:20:52: <Stramala> no defences
23:20:54: <Stramala> the easiest target
23:20:55: <Stramala> also
23:20:57: <Stramala> because
23:20:58: <Stramala> we're like
23:20:59: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> Fernando Valdes has got his head outta his ass after his pit exit antics, is now fifth
23:21:01: <Stramala> super cool
23:21:11: <Stramala> way more cooler than all those other shiteholes
23:21:15: <Stramala> like
23:21:16: <Stramala> totally
23:21:17: <Aeroracing> This time he ripped off a fictional guy shinji made up on a post he wrote to showcase how difficult it is to control people like him even after introducing first-post moderation
23:22:03: <dark77> only because the shiteholes have more members :P
23:22:26: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> Helena Boveri goes to 2nd as Mignolet is on a faster lap!
23:23:10: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> He goes into the 1:47s!
23:23:12: <GTR_WORLD_FEED>  1:47.997
23:23:22: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> As Valdes goes to second
23:24:10: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> Unai Vera goes to third!
23:24:19: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> Fabian Rei to second!
23:24:54: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> as uni vera goes purple in the first sector
23:25:38: <SuperAguri> so where is the single driver team of Gulf racing?
23:25:50: <GTR_WORLD_FEED>  14th
23:26:29: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> As Unai Vera goes to the front, four tenths clear of Mignolet
23:27:05: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> The track temp is a few degrees higher compared to the start of the session
23:27:34: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> the rain has all but stoped
23:28:17: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> Fernando Valdes goes to the top, Karl Lichter Shultz goes to third
23:28:27: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> Valdes continues his run to redemption
23:28:30: <Stramala> at least Mignolet is looking racy
23:28:47: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> Jans Zeithner goes to third
23:29:01: <Salamander> and theres another account :/
23:29:05: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> As Jaque Malenfant rockets to the front!
23:29:11: <GTR_WORLD_FEED>  1:44.601!
23:29:48: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> He's looking to go even faster, he's already 2 tenths faster in the first sector
23:29:57: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> he may be one of the first runners on inters
23:30:09: <dark77> interestingly he's just put his actual name for this account
23:30:25: <Stramala> what is it this time...
23:30:41: <Aeroracing> Has this guy ever heard about cancer?
23:30:48: <Aeroracing> It's sooo cool to get one
23:30:48: <Stramala> dunno
23:31:01: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> rip in peace RoFONS
23:31:10: <Stramala> who owned that
23:31:15: <dark77> takagi
23:31:41: <Stramala> eh, he hasn't been around so much lately
23:32:20: <dark77> welp
23:32:29: <dark77> roblomas might have a team for the next cart round
23:32:39: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> make it super slow intentionally
23:32:58: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> Malenfant goes 4 tenths faster in the second sector
23:32:58: <dark77> shizuka and eichy both have yet to post leaving 4 grid spots open
23:33:05: <dark77> lol
23:33:28: <Rated> NOOOOOOOOOOO. Gimme that spot :P
23:33:29: <dark77> since the driver he submitted is a rookie he won't have good stats
23:33:44: <Aeroracing> Ah, poor roblomas52
23:33:47: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> Malenfant goes into the 1:43s as Zeitner goes to 2nd
23:33:54: <dark77> Rated i think you'll get a team at the same time anyway
23:34:05: <dark77> since roblomas only wanted to enter 1 car
23:34:08: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> Peter Wok Cheng is about to break into the 1:59s
23:34:19: <Aeroracing> How many of you have added roblomas52 to your "Foe" lists?
23:34:27: <dark77> salamander has
23:34:36: <Stramala> what got deleted?
23:34:41: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> Roy Mellows is the second to go into the 1:43s
23:34:48: <Aeroracing> The latest 2 posts of that douchebag
23:34:49: <Stramala> I saw a post by "joey zyla pls"
23:34:52: <Stramala> and then it vanished :D
23:34:53: <Stramala> what
23:34:57: <Stramala> did he second account himself?!
23:34:59: <Aeroracing> Blame me
23:35:01: <Aeroracing> And sue me
23:35:03: <Aeroracing> :D
23:35:04: <Stramala> that would have been interesting to see
23:35:27: <dark77> god he's so sad
23:35:32: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> K-J Sung goes to third
23:35:34: <Aeroracing> In fact, this time he commited the cardinal sin of writing a post with one account, then replying to it with another account
23:35:54: <Stramala> why did he do that?
23:35:58: <Stramala> what was his idea?!
23:36:02: <dark77> he's doing it because he feels lonely
23:36:09: <Stramala> multiple personality disorder much
23:36:16: <Aeroracing> One day he'll find about how sad is his life
23:36:22: <Aeroracing> And two things might happen
23:36:26: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> Alot of cars are in the pits right now, they may be going onto more dryer orientated tires
23:36:28: <Aeroracing> A) He commits suicide
23:36:35: <Aeroracing> B) He does something to change his ways
23:37:11: <Aeroracing> Or C) He tries to kill himself, but fails and he realizes/someone makes him realize how wrong he was
23:37:43: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> Andrea Massini has only done 11 laps, he has a terminal issue with the 575
23:37:54: <Aeroracing> Can you believe this?
23:37:57: <Aeroracing> He's sent me a PM!
23:38:14: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> As F-M Voeckler goes to the top, 4 tenths faster than Malenfant
23:38:14: <Aeroracing> Someone help me send him a virus or something
23:38:20: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> What does the PM say
23:38:44: <Aeroracing> "I love you. <3"
23:38:55: <dark77> god he's sad
23:39:17: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> TOP 10
23:39:29: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> F-M Voecker - 28 IBR Alitalia - 1:43.468

23:41:49: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> Jans Zeitner - 15 Rojo - 1:44.430
23:41:53: Aeroracing laughs hard at Stramala
23:42:12: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> Mike Stern - 62 Rosenforth - 1:45.235
23:42:26: <Aeroracing> Anyway, that's me for the night
23:42:36: <Aeroracing> I'm tired of having to deal with a moron
23:42:38: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> Carsten Jackner - 49 Aerokings - 1:45.550
23:42:40: <Aeroracing> And I'm going to bed
23:42:56: <Aeroracing> Perhaps all the computers in Oregon will be broken tomorrow, I hope
23:43:08: <Aeroracing> Good night
23:43:14: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> Fernando Valdes - 34 Aurico - 1:47.061
23:43:23: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> that's your top 10 in this part of the session
23:46:01: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> As Molinaro goes to third, but nine tenths off of Rei
23:49:26: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> Cars that are 14th to 28th aren't on track, they are missing out on good semi-dry track time
23:53:38: <GTR_WORLD_FEED>  6 cars remain on track
23:53:44: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> i dunno why, they're all missing out
23:54:34: <Stramala> their loss our gain
23:54:42: <Stramala> unless of course Mignolet dropped like a stone :/
23:55:06: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> McKenna, Tantovich, Mori, Stern, Jackner, Depault and Wok Cheng are on track
23:55:11: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> Wok Cheng just exited the pits
23:58:44: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> the rain is all but gone
23:58:57: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> the sun is high above imola with 6 minutes to go
00:00:52: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> (after fastforwarding) the session is done and dusted
00:00:57: <GTR_WORLD_FEED>  4 cars can finish this lap
00:01:10: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> Mori, Stern, Depault and Wok Cheng
00:01:44: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> Mori fails to improve
00:01:50: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> Stern is stuck behind Depault
00:01:52: <dark77> :(
00:02:36: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> Stern won't imrpove if his sector 2 time is to go by
00:03:18: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> He foregoes crossing the line for the final time,
00:03:26: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> Depault will finish this lap
00:03:56: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> Wok Cheng boxes
00:04:22: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> and everyone has boxed, the session is over
00:04:29: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> Fabian Rei remains on top
00:05:30: <GTR_WORLD_FEED> We will return in a few hours with the qualifying simulation

SESSION THREE TEST RESULTS

Weather: Heavy Rain -> Overcast (Damp Track)



http://i1281.photobucket.com/albums/a502/RealRacingRoots/GT-R%20WC%20Results/GTRWCTest3Results_zps8efb2355.png

Pierre Depault and Peter Wok Cheng better learn what Blue Flags do, they caused quite the lot of chaos. The session started with GTR2 Ai showing it's stupid side with Fernando Valdes spinning at pit exit when the 25 Union Saver Corvette exited his garage right into the Aurico Driver. It then caused quite the insanity trying to exit the pits. Roland Davidson took a nasty rear-ending from Pieter Kickert after he spun off and was coming back on track. This session was insanity for the first 30 minutes, partially because of Depault and Wok Cheng. Sadly the chat log missed it, but oh well. Andrea Massini had a terminal problem after finishing his first stint, and did not go out after his first run of 11 laps.

[RealRacingRoots]

SESSION FOUR TEST RESULTS

Weather: Overcast (Dry Track)



http://i1281.photobucket.com/albums/a502/RealRacingRoots/GT-R%20WC%20Results/GTRWCTest4Results_zps838ec180.png

Once again, Depault and Wok Cheng were going at their own pace. Wok Cheng was much easier to pass this time around. But patience for Pierre was slim to none, he got punted off track a few times during the qualifying simulation. I am going to check if it was a issue with my ratings or if the both of them are trash without my influence.
Once the rest of the RWRS 2016 Calendar finally gets going, I will get the first round from Sepang underway.

So that's the test done and dusted. Some conclusions could be deduced, but each track favours different car and drivers differently so some teams may be higher in the order at some rounds than others. Good luck to all this season!

[MinardiFan95]

Gulf Racing will change their car number from 95 to 6.

[Onxy Wrecked]

It's safe to say that when possible if the weather changes mid-race that a driver swap will be done in the Onyx car. The competitive gap between the two in testing shows that Vukovic is fast in the dry by over a second. On a drying or wet track, it's safe to say that Vukovic is much slower to the point of being a liability.

[Nuppiz]

I'm OK with these results.

BTW it's Jancker, not Jackner.

[Hound55]

Well, It's good to know that my team will be comfortably decent with spurts of impressive. I can't really ask for more.

[Nessafox]

The competitive gap between the two in testing shows that Vukovic is fast in the dry by over a second. On a drying or wet track, it's safe to say that Vukovic is much slower to the point of being a liability.

Same thing, with KJS as wet-driver. The performance difference with Garfünkel is pretty big (altough, in dry, he hasn't been of much use either)

It's that Vukovic is so good in the dry that it would be a liability to leave Morioka out there on the dry surfaces. Morioka might be faster in the wet, but not as significantly as Vukovic is better on the dry surfaces.

A preview of stuff in the works. It will be properly aligned eventually. Of course feedback is always appreciated.

[Hound55]

That looks pretty cool. And like a lot of work.

[RealRacingRoots]

OOOOOOookay. Since I'm next in the queue in the 2016 Calendar, time to get the Round of Malaysia started. Practice will be live in a few minutes, I will be doing chat commentary in the IRC.

Malaysia Practice Session Results:

Weather: Dry -> Overcast (Dry) Very hot.



http://i1281.photobucket.com/albums/a502/RealRacingRoots/GT-R%20WC%20Results/GTRSepangPracticeResults_zpsd6461784.png


Unlike Imola, 30 cars easily fit on the Sepang circuit. While Ernest Bruno did impede quite the few cars, no major accidents occurred outside of Simon Garfunkel getting some front end damage in the melle behind Bruno.

Qualifying will happen later, there won't be a IRC Chat because I can do it at anytime since it is a 15 minute session.

[SuperAguri]

Log (with all the non related nits cut out)

Code: Select all

[15:26:12] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> Then we're ready to start
[15:26:42] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> And we are live from hot and humid Malaysia for the first session of the GTR Round of Malaysia
[15:27:02] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> The Sepang circuit hosts the first ever round of the championship
[15:27:31] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> It's only 2 in the afternoon and the track temp is already nearly 40 degrees celcius
[15:27:41] <~SuperAguri> Is there any chance of a thunderstorm?
[15:27:45] <%Salamander> oh yes
[15:27:47] <%Salamander> very much so
[15:28:00] <%Salamander> http://i1281.photobucket.com/albums/a502/RealRacingRoots/Random%20Rubbish/weather_zps86511d1b.png
[15:28:07] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> For the few days the teams have been ehre, the rain started around 4:30-5 in the afternoon
[15:28:13] <%Salamander> http://miburl.com/rINxmc
[15:28:20] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> and the race starts at 4 in the afternoon on sunday
[15:28:46] <%Salamander> dis gon be gud :D
[15:28:50] <~SuperAguri> Fantasic :D
[15:29:06] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> First car on track will be the 20 GP Lister being driven by local driver Nestra Aya
[15:29:14] <FortiPerSempre> oh, we have GTR?
[15:29:18] <FortiPerSempre> What's the session?
[15:29:25] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> Practice
[15:29:33] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> Change the topic Aguri
[15:29:50] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> Cardel, Zimmer and Pereria follow suit
[15:31:00] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> Although the track is very green and dusty, everyone is going on track to get all the dry running they can.
[15:32:36] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> As Aya beings his first flying lap here at his home track
[15:32:47] <captain_getz> you know, im probably just gonna slightly change my current 350Z livery for my 2nd car with Nicchi guest driving
[15:32:48] <+Klon_Rules> that is enough :D
[15:32:58] <captain_getz> just to let RRR know
[15:33:01] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> I can do the second livery if you want Getz
[15:33:28] <%Aeroracing> Tatus?
[15:33:47] <captain_getz> all I would want is to change the numbers and change the names on the back. Maybe highlight Nicchi's name as a guest or whatnot
[15:33:56] <FortiPerSempre> Can't wait to see if the updates I made to the IBR livery have made a difference :D
[15:34:09] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> I have an idea Getz, don't worry about it
[15:34:29] <captain_getz> like something different? im curious to hear now
[15:35:00] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> I'm thinking something similar to the Life Blokkmosta car
[15:35:07] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> But with a Nicci Blue instaed of purple
[15:35:31] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> As Aya finishes the first flying lap
[15:35:37] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> It is a 1:54.361
[15:35:45] <captain_getz> well it was supposed to be a charity car. Think you can find a charity group that matches? Nicchi already suggested one though
[15:35:57] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> Expect the time to go down considerably with the track constantly rubbering in
[15:36:12] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> >charity as in Nicci payed for the seat
[15:36:19] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> his charity is the blokkmonsta team :P
[15:36:37] <captain_getz> huh, i'll go with that story :P
[15:37:24] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> A bunch more cars are getting their times in, John Zimmer is now top of the tables
[15:37:28] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED>  1:53.435

[15:46:02] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> I can Nifterick and Walkwijk confused

[15:53:20] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> Don't expect as much chaos as the Imola test
[15:53:26] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> there is a whole lot more room here
[15:54:08] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> Track temp has already risen a few more degreees, now is at 46oC
[15:55:11] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> Ernest Bruno is currently last on the tables in the lone Viper in the series, behind him on track is Fazio in the 02 Lambo
[15:55:44] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> Jimmie Rosenforth is also in the queue
[16:00:38] <~SuperAguri> anyway how is the GTR practice going?
[16:00:45] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> going good
[16:00:55] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> track has heated up quite teh bit
[16:01:11] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> so it looks like the track isn't giving as much grip, even though more rubber is getting on track
[16:01:33] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> Only change on the times is Cardel in the 03 Lambo is now 8th
[16:01:54] <+Klon_Rules> Where is my driver?
[16:02:04] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> Du Lei is 19th
[16:04:40] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> Looks like the changes to Modenai's car are paying dividens
[16:04:46] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> He's gone purple in the first sector
[16:05:39] <FortiPerSempre> Lombardia Leoni are going to attempt to sign A.S. Varese's Alessandro Gambadori
[16:05:39] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> he's losing 3 tenths in the second sector however
[16:05:43] <FortiPerSempre> 89% chance of signing :D
[16:06:19] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> he does improve his time
[16:06:23] <+Klon_Rules> yeah - write that in the thread
[16:06:31] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> gaines a few tenths, but oly gains a pot
[16:06:58] <captain_getz> how is that viper doing?
[16:07:11] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> As Llosa goes wide at the back end of the track, he manages to keep it going
[16:07:14] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> Still last :P
[16:07:27] <captain_getz> well which manufacters are running well now?
[16:07:30] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> A second and a half behind the last pace car
[16:07:52] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> all but 3 cars in the top 10 are factory cars
[16:08:23] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> Nifterick in the Rojo, Douglas in the JLD and Alliot in the Ambrose Ferrari are the only Independants in the top 10
[16:08:45] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> Rosenforth and Modena are just outside the top 10
[16:08:49] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> Aya is 20th
[16:08:56] <Seedstriker> Close call...
[16:09:19] <Seedstriker> Don't blow it, man
[16:09:57] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> there is a queue of about 5 cars behind the viper
[16:10:04] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> good news for them as he is on a in-lap
[16:10:28] <captain_getz> wait, there is no manufacter viper or 575?
[16:10:40] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> nope
[16:10:42] <captain_getz> nor saleens for that matter
[16:11:01] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> The factory ferrari is the 550
[16:11:26] <FortiPerSempre> 575 was never race-modded in Maranello
[16:11:28] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> The superior GT1 Ferrari
[16:11:34] <FortiPerSempre> it was an N-Technology project
[16:11:35] <FortiPerSempre> I think
[16:11:36] <captain_getz> ironically
[16:11:47] <FortiPerSempre> 550 > 575
[16:11:51] <FortiPerSempre> clearly Italians are not fans of maths
[16:11:57] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> the 575 gtc was N-Tech, the 550 was a prodrive product
[16:11:58] <captain_getz> well what cars are in or out for next season if you put any thought to it yet?
[16:12:10] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> The 911 GT2 is in it's last year of homolgation
[16:12:17] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> the Maser MC12 is currently in development
[16:12:18] <FortiPerSempre> surely the 360 is coming soon?
[16:12:24] <FortiPerSempre> oooh MC12
[16:12:26] <FortiPerSempre> that's interesting
[16:12:34] <FortiPerSempre> I always liked the MC12s
[16:12:36] <FortiPerSempre> so sleek :D
[16:13:22] <captain_getz> ehh i still think its too long for its own good.
[16:13:33] <captain_getz> im waiting for the mosler and the DBR9/DBRS9
[16:14:13] <FortiPerSempre> hated Vitafone though, I always cheered for the Scuderia Playlife team :D
[16:14:45] <FortiPerSempre> P I C C I N I
[16:14:52] <FortiPerSempre> shame I can't hire him for GTRWC
[16:14:52] <captain_getz> what is Ferrari's works GT team called?
[16:14:58] <FortiPerSempre> AF Corse
[16:15:32] <captain_getz> and I recall a rject team using a green and orange DBR9, I just forgot which one
[16:15:37] <captain_getz> *reject
[16:16:07] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> The Mosler is one of the Super GP One-Off cars
[16:16:27] <FortiPerSempre> Barwell?
[16:16:33] <captain_getz> ehh, I prefer the 350Z more
[16:16:33] <FortiPerSempre> I remember Barwell were quite shite in FIA GT
[16:17:17] <captain_getz> it could be Dallara, though they're not proper rejects
[16:17:25] <captain_getz> just PQ frequenters
[16:17:31] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> i'm getting details on the DBR9
[16:18:08] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> but my source is being slow
[16:18:28] <captain_getz> yeah it says Scuderia Italia used a DBR9 for a time
[16:20:08] <FortiPerSempre> wat
[16:20:12] <FortiPerSempre> those bastards
[16:20:14] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> getz is right
[16:20:18] <FortiPerSempre> no patriotism!
[16:20:37] <captain_getz> well I liked team not-Ferrari
[16:20:44] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> (imma start time accelerating now)
[16:21:42] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> It looks like Simon Garfunkel got brake checked
[16:21:53] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> there is a lot of damage to the front of the belgio ferrari
[16:23:11] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> As Claude Verge gets into the back of the 02 Lambo at turn 9
[16:23:39] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> everyone jossling for space at Bruno in the Viper is causing quite the qeue
[16:23:46] <captain_getz> well Im in the alternate Supet GT series now, though im still sad that they would let me use an AE86 Trueno
[16:23:50] <captain_getz> *wouldnt
[16:24:02] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> a total of 12 cars in a length spanning the pit straight are behind him
[16:24:22] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> garfunkel pits to repair his damage
[16:26:50] <~SuperAguri> the AE86 is not designed for speed
[16:26:54] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> the 2 closest carst behind the AeroKings Viper is Nifterick and Matteo Rossi, they took the last corner side-by-side
[16:27:12] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> The Trueno AE85 was a GT300 car during the later 90s
[16:27:12] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> AE86
[16:27:18] <captain_getz> yeah, but this is the rejects forums right?
[16:27:30] <captain_getz> yeah I was planning to use that one with the current MRS engine
[16:28:21] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> Ricardo Llosa jumps to second
[16:28:28] <captain_getz> and its supposed to win in the corners. That was its thing
[16:28:29] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> But Zimmer has improved his time
[16:29:14] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> Andoni Garrido in one of the Aeroracing Vettes is now 7th
[16:30:06] <FortiPerSempre> AE86 with Keichii Tsuchiya driving :D
[16:30:13] <FortiPerSempre> that would be fun to watch in Super GT
[16:30:42] <captain_getz> well Kracer said it was too old, so i'll have to settle for something else
[16:31:09] <FortiPerSempre> booo
[16:31:17] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> http://24.media.tumblr.com/de27201ded43dc9690b7aad8739b26ff/tumblr_mo5ewt3W5G1r0mdvuo1_500.jpg
[16:31:24] <Seedstriker> Easy, Ricardo. This is practice, data for qualify
[16:31:45] <FortiPerSempre> however
[16:31:55] <FortiPerSempre> Keichii Tsuchiya in an AE86 would be dreadfully slow
[16:31:57] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> As John Magnus runs wide into the turn 7 gravel
[16:31:58] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> he will continue
[16:32:04] <FortiPerSempre> "I drift not because it is a quicker way around a corner but the most exciting way."
[16:32:29] <Seedstriker> God bless the man
[16:32:33] <captain_getz> well the AE86 from the 90s JGTC at least looked competent
[16:32:35] <FortiPerSempre> "Speed isn't everything; you gotta look cool on the touge too."
[16:32:36] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> Nifterick got by Ernest Bruno
[16:32:45] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> Now the others are thinking they can get past too
[16:33:00] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> John Bovy moves to the first car behind the viper, passing Rossi
[16:35:39] <+Klon_Rules> Bohn Jovy
[16:36:05] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> someone's mind just exploded
[16:36:10] <Seedstriker> Have a Nice Day :p
[16:44:00] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> it looks like a lot more teams have finished their primary programme
[16:44:06] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> most cars in the garage in a long wihle
[16:45:10] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> Zimmer once again improves his time
[16:45:15] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> he is the only car in the 1:52s
[16:46:06] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> As Gerald Pereia goes to second on the times
[16:46:24] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> albeit, still 4 tenths behind Zimmer in the Zonda
[16:46:50] <~SuperAguri> who is the slowest person on the circuit?
[16:47:06] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> Ernest Bruno in the Viper
[16:49:15] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> There is a lot more room than Imola
[16:49:20] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> Bovy is 24th
[16:49:23] <~SuperAguri> John Zimmer fastest, Ernest Bruno slower then a Lada GTR
[16:50:10] <%Kun_Engineering> is this still practice?
[16:50:17] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> yeahs
[16:50:23] <%Kun_Engineering> sweet, not that important then
[16:51:49] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> As Darren Cardel jumps to third in the times, 2 hundredths behind pereria
[16:52:23] <captain_getz> so RRR you said you'll do a different livery idea for my 2nd 350Z for the high speed ring race?
[16:52:32] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> yuppers
[16:53:00] <captain_getz> can you at least keep the Rotary International sponsor on it? since thats the chairty e're racing for
[16:53:04] <captain_getz> *we're
[16:53:07] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> oookay
[16:53:15] <captain_getz> alright, thank you
[16:53:28] <%Salamander> what on earth kind of charity is that
[16:53:37] <%Kun_Engineering> the one i chose :P
[16:53:52] <%Kun_Engineering> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotary_International
[16:54:16] <%Salamander> fair enough
[16:54:25] <%Salamander> i thought it was to do with rotary engines myself
[16:54:27] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> i think there's a rotary branch near where I live
[16:54:54] <captain_getz> if only there was an RX7 or RX8 we could use :D
[16:55:28] <Ferrarist> Are there any Grand-AM mods available?
[16:55:39] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> I wouldn't use it
[16:55:51] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> The GA RX8 is a tube chassis POS
[16:56:53] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> With the track having a low amount of runners, some teams ahve gotten quiter
[16:57:02] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> Jimmy Rosenforth in the 62 is now 7th
[16:57:59] <%Kun_Engineering> ah Rosenforth, the man who at one point looked set to dominated prost gp
[17:03:29] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> Only 4 runners remain on track with about 10 minutes to go
[17:03:37] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> They are reaching 50 laps completed
[17:03:41] <Hound55> who are they?
[17:04:21] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> Jimmie Rosenforth, Claude Vergne in the Aurico, Du Lei and Ernest Bruno
[17:04:42] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> Giovanni Roda has already completed 50 laps
[17:04:46] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> but has boxed
[17:08:36] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> Rosenforth makes a clean pass on Bruno going into turn 1
[17:10:36] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> The Chekered flag waves here for the second
[17:10:38] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> session
[17:10:48] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> Claude Vergne just finished his lap before the flagwaves
[17:10:50] <%Kun_Engineering> phenett's still gonna dominate even if they are nerfed
[17:12:19] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> Bruno and Vergne complete their laps, the session is over
[17:12:31] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> I will upload the results pretty quick here
[17:12:37] <captain_getz> how far behind was that poor viper?
[17:12:51] <%GTR_WORLD_FEED> But that is the end of the session, we will be back later for qualifying from Sepang

[Onxy Wrecked]

15th? Sounds OK to me. Who starts the race depends on the rain in Malaysia even if it means taking a penalty for a driver change.

It rained overnight, so the track was green. But with the Asian Festival of Speed supporting GTR, there had already been quite the lot of running on track. The pace was frantic at the front, if you had the clean air. Darren Cardel was held up by Mattias Kjellerup during the session and he couldn't get a good lap in. Otherwise, a good clean session by all. The time that the race starts is about 45 minutes to an hour before the rain comes each evening, so anything can happen on race day.

[Onxy Wrecked]

I just hope that Vukovic doesn't race mostly in the rain otherwise as he's liability out there and worse yet starting from 25th isn't a good place to start from although it's a bit less than a second off the pace.
