[Mp3 Astra]

Come on Michael Booth and Craig Nayler, we're waiting for you!

[c8nay]

Well I'll see if Boothy gets online tomorrow. If not I'll join up with Jon Brown to help him out.

[jens]

Unfortunately I don't have information about that, but what do you think about the idea of making a 'motorsportforums' F1 season in batracer.

- if it is already taking place, then how long will it last and when may the next season start?
- if there is no such season, then what about playing one such among forum members and which season will we choose (1986, 2002, 2006)?

[nik]

F1 carset are boring, we stick with BTCC. :D

[Luffield]

Besides which, I retire enough from the BTCC races, and the 1986 carset is billed on the Batracer front page as having retirements aplenty.

Good choice nik, i'd be tearing what's left of my hair out else!!!! :p

[Brown, Jon Brow]

Well I'll see if Boothy gets online tomorrow. If not I'll join up with Jon Brown to help him out.
cheers :up:

If anyone is wondering who D Whitewood is, he's a mate of mine. ;) He's a motorsport fanantic and used to succesful at junior kating. (untill the budget went)


PS What is the most effective way of moving the sliders when you get an 'estimation updated' ? Is it by only moving one at a time or do certain aspects have no effect on others so you can change more than one. :s

[Mp3 Astra]

Jon, when estimation is updated you just move it in the direction that it says. Usually by 8 because then you'll always have even numbers in between and you'll easily be able to find the spot on. For example:
The engineer's advice page says "medium brake bias" so you start at 50.
You get "estimation updated, decrease setting" so you take it to 42. From there you get "estimation updated, increase setting", so you take it up by 4 because that is half way between 50 and 42. Keep going like that until all the runs are spent and do all the sliders that have feedback on each run.
Hope that helps :)

[c8nay]

Joining the 'fun' now. As I don't know whether Boothy will be around or not.

[Donney]

What's the password?

[nik]

It says it in the thread.

Typical, now one ever joins my team from this forum. :(

[Donney]

I guess I should read the threads more carefully.

[BM]

Oi Craig!!! Could you not have waited for me? :(

[c8nay]

Oi Craig!!! Could you not have waited for me? :(

For the record, I apologize. :(

[Mp3 Astra]

I, personally, don't like the Civic very much. That's why I didn't join your team. Plus I wanted to continue my dedication to the MG :D

[c8nay]

Nothing personel nik! I was joining BM, but ..... I'd I thought I'd join Jon to help him out (nothing to do with the Astra!) and I normally start my own team to use my liveries.

[Brown, Jon Brow]

How long do we usually have to wait for everyone to sign up?

[c8nay]

The last time it took 3 days to fill up once the game was posted on the BATracer forum. This time it could take longer as people may cut back on the games they have going because of Christmas.

[nik]

Oh well, i'll just wait for someone with kool tools to join my team! :cheese:

[Mp3 Astra]

And you got Michael Booth aka BM. Good luck to you sir :D

[nik]

Entries seemed to have slowed down recently.

[jens]

Okay, I joined the series as well. Although I'm not sure, how long I will have the motivation to compete there...

[nik]

Your team mate will love that! :p :

[Mp3 Astra]

Too true, nik!
The game has begun finally :D :D

[lugnut_usa]

Hi all...first time here, didn't even know about the place until joining the BTCC game. ;)

(Chad Dunbar in production class)

[nik]

Welcome the forums and good luck! :)

[c8nay]

Welcome along Chad!

[Donney]

Welcome Chad. :wave:

[c8nay]

Well that was a typical start from me :( It can only get better.......

[lugnut_usa]

Same here...doing well and then "driver error" out of nowhere! :D

[Brown, Jon Brow]

It will all come good for west lancashire racing. :D

[Brown, Jon Brow]

I've got my 1st ever BATracer pole :up: :cheese:

[nik]

This series is pants!

Although I teamed up with Mr.Nayler in a public series and that's going much better!

[c8nay]

For you it is nik, I seem to have a fetish for the back of the field at the moment.....

Still at least this forum series has its high points. Pole position and a 1-2 qualy: YAY!

[jso1985]

First win in the forum series :D

[c8nay]

Your first one on the Forum series? Well Done! Its a pity I couldn't do more to stop you :(

[jens]

Well, so far I have been very far from scoring even just an odd win...

[Scuderia ferrari]

I'm in the BTCC, leader of scuderia racing, and 2 driver in redbull F1 2006.

[Luffield]

There's 3 drivers in with a shout at the title going into the final round and more batling for 4th and below.

Of the 6 seasons i've been in this is by far the closest fought.

Guess we'll find out how it all pans out tomorrow. Should be fun. Bring on season 7. :up:

[racer69]

Indeed, amazing to see the title protaginists are in MG's and Peugeot's, not a Vauxhall in sight :(

Been a wierd season for me, not helped in the middle by scoring just 1 point from four races.

[Brown, Jon Brow]

Vauxhall's have been very quick in qualifying ;) I can't believe that I havn't converted one of my 7 poles into a race win. A bit like Rickard Rydell ehh :p


Will batracer7 be btcc again or something different like A1GP or F1 1986 :?:

[jens]

I doubt whether I can participate in the next Motorsportforums' private series as now only one private game is allowed simultaneously and I am also engaged with another league... :\

[c8nay]

That was a great end to an great season. I might not of made good use of the Astra (although as Luke said they didn't seem the same car this year), but taking the win in production with the BMW and no team mate was pretty satisfying. A big well done Passo, our first forum winner since Boothy (BM). So when's the next one starting? :D

[Luffield]

The was a better season. Well done to my team mate on taking the title firstly and secondly I had no retirements at all which is a miracle.

I didn't have a win either though so I suppose it's fair.

Well done to all who took part. Roll on season 7 :up:

[Donney]

Congratulations Passo it was a great season!!!!

[racer69]

Well done Passo, its great to have a family member win the thing :)

And congrats to me and Lyndon, no retirements at all :)

[c8nay]

So, is anyone going to start a new game?

[Brown, Jon Brow]

So, is anyone going to start a new game?

Hopefully :D

Although my season was ruined by mechanical failure and Accidents it was still good seeing my name at the top of the time sheets in kwolleefying.
I'll get some wins next year ;)

[c8nay]

If no one else is going too, I'll start it within the next hour and start the new thread unless someone else wants to do it.

[Mp3 Astra]

Thanks guys :)
What a great season it was!
Can't wait to defend the title :D

[Luffield]

And congrats to me and Lyndon, no retirements at all :)

Cheers Luke. Congrats to you too.

Even though we we're a little way off the overall battle, we can count that as a good result.

It was interesting in those last few rounds waiting to see who would be the last to not retire. :up:
