Will reinstall the game today or tomorrow to finally get rid of that stupid bug where everything on the track is made of indestructable concrete for me.

Now I'm waiting for the inevitable crash I'm going to have soon. I've been awake for 40+ and need to go on till evening to prevent jetlag. Right now I'm wide awake but tiredness will probably set in soon!
About time you got your ass back in this thread :D I hope for more epic battles with me crashing out :P

So I've just worked out I'm going to have to miss the final race of the F1 2011 calendar.

Rubbish. :-(

All those in favour of making Singapore the last race, not Abu Dhabi?

Replace Singapore with Abu Dhabi and I can agree with that :P

Anyone up for a race or two tonight? I'm in the mood after being up at 7am for GP!

I'll probably come on in a bit for a few spins round, should have my dinner in me by then.

I know I'm not racing this weekend again but wouldn't mind a blast around Germany as it's a fun track.

Gah, had no time to upload my highlights from the race in Valencia since I left for vacation.
And did not make it back in time for Silverstone.

Nevertheless since I cause a SC, I recorded some TV style footage for the European race, which makes for some quite interesting PoVs :

Will post the highlights in an hour !

Right guys, in all seriousness, we're a bit shit. I've put together some videos to help us get better:

How to win a race
How to defend
How to build team morale


Let me know if it taught you anything because I put a lot of time into them! Cheers.

The first two videos are private apparently :/

Would you guys be angry if I somehow landed that Jump and ended up first on Saturday? haha

My God. I am so. Fucking stupid.

I completely forgot there was a race. I was on Xbox around 11:00 (which would be around 4 in your time), and no one was coming on so I wasn't reminded of it. So I guess it was started later than usual, since typically people are at least practicing around 11 when I get on.

Then I got off Xbox a few minutes later.

Then I get on today and notice I have a message. And it's from Foliorum about something about Crysis on consoles (I GOT IT BEFORE I GOT MY GAMING PC, DON'T JUDGE ME), and I was like....FUCK. And now I just remembered what I was forgetting the whole weekend.

Shit balls. DAMMIT. BALLSACKS.

Like we were saying yesterday, it's going to be really hard resisting the urge to just fly off that ramp. :)

I swear to God on every last lap of our practice races this week I'm going to use it. The first time I end a race properly will be on Saturday.

You should just include it as part of the final lap. If you can't clear a simple ramp without wrecking and finish a GP you don't deserve points. Webber does this kind of stuff in his sleep.

Scumbag Co-Op partner rammed me going into turn one in China, then outright mugged/spun me out in turn 4 on the first lap. He got so many ramming penalties he didn't finish in the points. I have a Massa on my hands.

Looks like the race is gonna be a suggested 3 stopper, given the games recommended strategy.

I'll be up for that so it drags me away from 3d modelling.

I did a GP weekend just now and started on primes, and the recommended strategy was... pit on lap 9 for options, then lap 15 for more primes, then on 25 for options again. I really don't think that's gonna work :P

I'd say this league has been a lot more intense than the last one, even though it's not been as fun overall. In the last league there were 4 or 5 people able to fight for the win each weekend. Now it just seems that in the dry it's me, Lucius and Crumbs, with the wet shaking everything up.
