this time im going to do something new, colour coding. therefore:

 

All british cars will be: British racing green (not custom colour, the version offered by the manufacturer)

 

All American cars will be: Navy blue (should be white with blue trimmings but thats not an option...)

 

The German car will be: Silver

The Italian car will be: Rosso Corsa

 

finally, i seem to recall that the Ruf RGT won last time around, therefore it is now replaced with the RS4

right, the list says its blue, so blue it is.

[YeOldeTDUMan]

Might be able to do Sunday .... depends on what time I'm back from my parents. 6 will be pushing it ... but most probably possible ... as long as you don't do any earlier.

 

As to cars ... well I was hoping for a AM V8 ... but I see the Aston is taken ... so I'll take the Jag ... need to do a British Car this time ... oh and the Audi should be Silver not White as Silver is the correct colour for German Racing cars

[Who]

[YeOldeTDUMan]

See you all at 6 ... haven't compared the specs of the cars this time ... but it didn't really work out that way last time did it !

[Pherelas]

I got loads of french and a 2 huor maths exam to do before 8 tonnnight. I got to get my prioritys right, see you all at 6, really can't be bothered to work. :)

[Pherelas]

I had loads of connection problems with this but in the caddlic I would have easyly lost. In the DB9 I was nearly at 190 at the end of the first straight, the Caddie won't do 160.

[Who]

post #1 updated with results, round 3 coming soon (B class)

[Nipper]

my game froze then restarted again?????

 

and i had mass lag getting outta the blocks

 

it was just disaster for me, so i stopped at the lighthouse and enjoyed a nice little eating session LOL

[Pherelas]

I think with the start it should be did not start. It kicked me out before th count down.

[YeOldeTDUMan]

Well not a bad race once it finally got started ... a lot of server issues by the looks of it (including me when everyone started and I was stuck on the line!)

 

As to B Class ... been doing a little thinking ... well I've got a spreadsheet in progress with ALL the stats for ALL the Stages of cars ... it has a lot of gaps at the moment ... so B Class cars well they're ...

 

Shelby GR-1, W12 Coupe, XJ200, Farboud, Cobra Concept, Rt 12, Ascari, Vipers (both), CLK DTM AMG, Z06, F430s (both), Gallardo (SE & Coupe),

Ford GT, Nobles (all 3) and the Caterham

 

And for those of you in the know they're listed in order of top speed(ish)

 

So as to the 8 cars for the next race I'd suggest the following.

 

British

Ascari KZ1

Noble M14

 

American

Dodge Viper SRT-10 Coupe

Chevrolet Corvette Z06 Coupe

Ford GT

 

German

Mercedes CLK DTM AMG

 

Italian

Ferrari F430 Coupe

Lamborghini Gallardo SE

 

This gives you 4 cars with the same top speed (197-198mph)- Ascari, Viper, CLK & Z06

And then 4 slower cars (189-195mph)- whoever is known as the best driver could be handicapped and use the Noble as this is the slowest of the pack 189mph & 4.3s compared to 198mph and 3.9s for the fastest 4 cars (give or take a stat)

 

Well this is only a suggestion but should give some reasonably close racing ... if you feel like using this and I can make it can I claim either the CLK (main preference) or the F430.

[Pherelas]

That looks good. If you do it can I take the Viper, couldn't even get into the last race but thats the first time that has happenered, though I can't conect to someone sometimes.

[Nipper]

ill take the Z06 if thats the list :)
