Quote ( Atli Thor Johannesson @ November 1st 2017,14:43:12 ) Very unlucky Sherry. On the positive side, you saved yourself a LOT of parts wear. Istanbul is a much better track to push on, with a lot less parts wear, ideal for 70 ctr. On top of that, it's even colder than last race, ideal for your Dunnolops and it's probably a long time until you get your next random.
Hence,, a win-win scenario for you Sherry. :)
Nice words Atli,,, Yes parts saved,, but no $$'s banked ! Strong though for Istanbul as you suggest.
But "win win" not sure,, I think Jon's "glass half full" was closer to the truth !! But thanks all for your comments !!

I see you are doing quite well in Masters, for a newly promoted manager, so perhaps there is hope for the rest of us, once we get there. :) :)
Good luck in the second half of the season, I hope you manage to retain.

Hey Philippe, nice to see you checking your old school friends :)
Well to be honest, I don't have anything against staying here forever, as long as we have good fun here in forum.
If Atli stays also, it would be good, we could be like settlers, welcoming and escorting people to and from P-11 :D

I'm doing quite well yeah, thanks, but it means i'm burning money !
Someday i'll come back to do the same :p

Quote ( Blazo Jankovic @ November 3rd 2017,14:57:37 ) Well to be honest, I don't have anything against staying here forever, as long as we have good fun here in forum. So true, Pro-11 is a great group to grow in. :)
Quote ( Blazo Jankovic @ November 3rd 2017,14:57:37 ) If Atli stays also, it would be good, we could be like settlers, welcoming and escorting people to and from P-11 :D Hehehe, Pro-11 settlers. The next 4 races will determine if I stay or go up.
Derek, Jiri, Djordje and Luis are very fast at the moment and hard to beat, with Jon, Jean-francois and Roger seeming to be picking up the pace a bit. We already know Andrea and Blazo are very fast, but have a new driver. Sharma has the best tires and Sherry pushes her Ctr like no-one else.
I'm starting to worry about whether it's bad idea to wait until next season to go for promotion... as I have a feeling some of the mentioned and many unmentioned managers are not pushing at all right now, but will do so next season, when the driver is prepared...
I also suspect my friend Jon of being easily capable of winning already, as soon as he ups his tootleing... If Jon is already that fast on the tootle, how quick is he going to be when he starts jogging...... I don't even want to think about when he starts running..fook me.. hopefully i'm out of here by then,,lol
So, promoting now might not be that bad at all... hmmmmm.

Someday i'll come back to do the same :p I hear overtaking is a lot harder in Masters. Is that also your experience Philippe?
|
|

Oh yes it is hard to overtake ! xD Almost on every races, there was that one guy blocking everyone and i hardly had 2 or 3 laps to drive free. If we don't begin on first spot by qualifying, it's hard to comeback. On last week race, tuesday i believe, we were 20 guys stuck in 5sec by the 3rd for half the race o/
There's hope for you Atli promoting next season, you have whats needed !

What a great race that was. Congrats to Luis for his very very close win by 0.035 seconds Darek for 2nd place. Szabolcs for 3rd place. Roger for the fastest pitstop Luis for the fastest lap.
Well done Jiri, Jon, Adriano and Roger for scoring points. Sherry,, unlucky again... ouch. Djordje, Out on first lap... ouch. Jon, showing his jogging pace. Myself... Damn Yokos.. :)

Yes it was an interesting race to be honest.
Congrats to all the points takers.
Not great for Djordje (unlucky pal) and Sherrys luck seems to be continuing...in a bad way....glad I'm not married to her tonite!! I bet shes already smashed the house up! I wish you much better luck next race,

Quote ( Atli Thor Johannesson @ November 3rd 2017,21:38:18 ) Sherry,, unlucky again... ouch.
Not sure Atli on the "ouch"
I ran two stop on soft x 2 40ct with a short first stint (11) Second/third stint were more "what you expect" 34 ish laps... Only 40 ct I am happy with my race !!
But congratz to Points peeps... Jon might get a prize for "jogging pace" But I doubt it ...
But Yes Atli,,, Much better race to view ! At least I raced !!! :)

X Soft. Lol I just had to check the race analysis :D
|
|

So it worked better going the straight 2 stop.. I just tried a little different to gain a decent quall spot. I got held up a lot and your driver is possibly better than mine,, But thats the game !!
No harm in trying.. But no prizes either :) !

No harm in trying.. But no prizes either :) ! Yeah I suppose so. I probably need to add a few more risks to become "competitive" though!
