GP 23rd Feb...

[mad]

Tracks are on and its going to be a doozy of a race.

The first track is a request and the second track is pure inspiration

[McInSanE]

steve.. ..don't mess up this time please.
your qualifying times are so good

[Steve]

Lol, i spent about an half an hour late last night racing the tracks, and i still dont think thats as fast as i can go. Theres about an .5 of a sec to come off both tracks i think

Edit: Lmao, your times arent to shabby either Insane 19.22 on agadoo

[Tred]

lol, when I had a go last night I had the 2nd record on each track, although I was a long way behidn steves times, so I doubt that I've stayed there But it makes things look a bit better for Brabham this weekend anyways

race 1:

Hit windows key when track intro was running and by the time i was back in everyone was moving and i still had the 3sec countdown going, crashed everylap for about 5 laps then i start speeding up untill on lap 12 i hit a corner and flew across the tracka nd over the side, and with no recovery point was game over.

race2:

Start well and was enjoying the race running in 3rd/4th untill i messed up just after the last checkpoint and hot when by, got racing again and was catching him untill i made another mistake when i was just behind hot and dan went by. then tried to catch and notices dan had gone missing and i was running in 5th but i then did what i did in the first race and went flying over the side on the last corners.

thanks to everyone and i may see you on the laps server sometime.

First Race: Brabham: 1st and 2nd. AND A WIN.

Second Race: Bad start. didn't get a good flow until lap 8 or sth. was in 2nd 2-3secs behind moldo for a couple of laps but couldn't catch up. made too many mistakes and ended up 4th =(
but steve got 2nd so that's a 2nd and 4th for Brabham again.

[Steve]

First ever team 1 2. Your never going to hear the end of this

Great weekend for me, 2 2nd's and 2 qualifying points Greatest weekend of both GP seasons for me

[Tred]

1st race was going BRILLIANTLY. I was 5th, with 4th in sight, and had a good pace going, with only 4 laps left.... but then I clipped the inside wall, which sent me into the checkpoint, and I ended up balanced on my side. I struggled with it for a minute or so, to no avail, and was just typing about my retirement, when it righted itself! I had lost 3-4 laps, and gone from 5th to 13th, but at least I managed to finish.

But had to leave before the 2nd race

EDIT: for those of you who knew about the RFR race that I'm meant to be in right now... I fell off on lap 15 of 70, battling once again for 4th place :'( Stupid elevation changes

Race 1: Picked up numerous positions from crashers, ended up 14th, not too bad

Race 2: Was right at the very back, and going off once didn't help. Then between lap 15-20 I landed awkwardly at the jump, and turtled it

[-slowth-]

My debut GP!

Thought i'd read on here that the GP's were 5pm so turned up only to find a couple of people practicing.Figured it must be 7pm instead so turned up then only to find a few more practicing.At 7.05pm i see Supergrinch say 'i'll be back in 25 mins'.Aha,race must be 7.30 then...turn up at 7.30 and (rather cleverly i think) actually ask someone what time the race is..

Ahem

Back for 8pm

Race 1:A bag of nerves like i'm on my first date or something.Determined not to crash as wasn't sure of the restart rules Had a steady,unspectacular run and finished 12th.

Race 2:Flew out of the blocks,concentrating real hard for 5 laps or so,thinking 'im doing alright here' only to hear Mad say 'are we ready then?'.I thought the warm up was the actual race...
Switched to autopilot and took no chances,bringing the Bentley home in 12th again
I cant describe the relief i felt at actually finishing my first 2 GP's.Im hooked!

[Steve]

Lol. Great stuff Slowth. Time for another history lesson me thinks...

Back in the day.....

Nah, on my first GP, i got so nervous. Heart pounds a little bit, and sweaty fingers and palms, which doesnt help when using a keyboard. They were nice tracks for a 1st GP this week. I got Nemesis, which is a great track, and Scary GP!!! Evil choice for a debutant from mad I lasted 3 laps

[Dantski]

1st race - drove sh*t

2nd race - drove ok for a bit, then it all went to hell and I just got fed up and left.

First racing I was doing quite well, battling for position 8 or something I think versus Mad. Had to go afk halfway the race though and at the end I was 2 laps short of finishing because of that I think.

Second race I crashed the very first jump so I had to restart. Had a nice race catching up some people. Apologies for not reconnecting, I wasn't aware I had to do this. (I don't crash as often as you guys )

[Steve]

Shhh. Stop ruining our fun

[Moldo]

What did you type the first time? I saw an unread message by Steve, I go to the topic and the last post was from me. You deleted it!

sorry I couldn`t be there yesterday. It was all my own fault, The pre season party was to much fun and I ended upp drinking way too much (The drinking way too much part was true)

[DodgyGeezer]

a solid weekend for team jps, up 3 places in the constructor championship.

1st race: churning around behind mcinsane and fell victim to "watching the chat" syndrome. lots my rythm for a couple of laps and steve was on me like a crocodile on a duck. we seem to have a couple of laps of synchronised crashes before steve got away from me. Played mr insane.

2nd race: terrible couple of laps around 3-4 put me about 15th, worked my way through to a respectable 6th

nice tracks and great close racing.
