Zekester - TWO stops per race, minimum.
Like I said in the game already......I sometimes forget this little rule for this game, since i'm running multiple games. But I don't know where this came from in the first place, because there is absolutely no advantage to pitting only once. None of my games have I seen an advantage from anyone for pitting only once. CSL told us at the beginning that people were consistently winning races on one-stoppers. I wouldn't be shocked to learn he was full of shit. If we agree on rules though, we should all stick to them.   1 pitting is not better. I one-pitted one of my worst outings.

We've only had 1 wet race so far. We've had wet qualifying with dry race, but that's about it. (iirc)

I would love to join if you guys ever have an opening. My Super Aguri car in my other league just isn't cutting it and I think I could do better. (my top finish is 8th.)

8th in a 22 car field? In an Aguri? That's fantastic. gellar

Yeah, what the hell did you do during practice? We got lucky with my first set of settings. Interestingly enough, I only got ONE RUN in before my car wrecked despite having 50% aggressiveness. Yet we still pwn you. gellar

I would expect you to pwn me. The game tells me the ideal setup for Monaco is 54 points outside the abilities of my car.

Um... what? +83 seconds, sir. gellar Where do you get that from? The final podium page puts Kratz at +84.556, and you at +168.540. As for Monaco...I thought us Toyotas were the only ones who got that message. If mighty Renault got it, too, the race will be mighty interesting.

Everything was at 50 and I have been racing my Aguri in the high 70's. I'm gonna see what this thing can do, from Zeke's setup, and then start over next race.

Dear lord my warm up runs were bad. I hope everyone else is having us much trouble as I am or I'll be lucky to finish 10 laps behind everyone else. I'm so screwed.

You guys know you can exchange settings and stuff w/ the team talk in the game, right?
This race is going to be very, very interesting... Monaco is a fucked up, tight track with short laps and really demanding on the cars... throw in the rain we've had off and on through the weekend and the prediction of more for the race... I have no idea how this is going to shake out!

Yes, I think why Team Toyota has been able to do consistantly well is becuase of building on each others results. But Monaco is going to be bad for us. Neither of us managed to get good feedback in our warmups. docD

I wish there was a setting for "ram someone else's car", because right now that's about the only chance I have of doing anything worth a shit in this race.
DocD is right. Our practice and warmup runs sucked.
