it was a great event, even tho I had some issues (every lap..). This 8pm start is a bit late for me I think, also a longer track would be better imo (less backmarkers, more fights), but the track design, the starting procedure and the cars were amazing (even when it took 20 mins, worth it) That 8pm start was to make it a bit more appealing to people in the states, but if it happened to be longer, I would have set an earlier starting time. I initially wanted to host this event on the regular version of this track (twice as long), but that would have resulted in people driving alone for a long time. I wanted to focus on traffic, this is why the track turned out that short. For the starting setup I was looking away from the parked cars the whole time. After all was done and I wanted to get back to my place I wa slike "Oooh damn". Yea, I was driving up and down the line of parked cars nice and slow to really take in the spectacle of all of the parked cars. It looked amazing.

Good fun everyone, I hope you'll consider doing a championship with this gridding style (we'll make it faster next time, promise) and car choices. Great track and car setups, thanks Skirakzalus

Sounds like it was an amazing race, wish I could have been there! Hopefully there will be another similar event soon?

Good fun everyone, I hope you'll consider doing a championship with this gridding style (we'll make it faster next time, promise) and car choices. Great track and car setups, thanks Skirakzalus Glad you liked it. Thing is that I am not that interested in lenghty championships (last time I was in something like that I got quite tired of the Banshee 900R I was driving for 5 weeks). Getting enough tracks that offer a place to grid up like this also might not be easy, especially to get something that has a regular pattern to help with the distances which also balances out the cars. Also I think the car choice was good enough for a one off, for a championship however I'd rather have them a bit further apart (at least LMP and GT1), but that is hard to do unless the RE-7B is fixed (I don't like the bugged version, and having it's performance varying so much depending on the PC is something that disqualifies it for serious racing for me). Sounds like it was an amazing race, wish I could have been there! Hopefully there will be another similar event soon? Right now I am not planning anything, except spending some time in the creator. I generally don't just repeat events (have done quite a few in another crew) and rather do stuff when I have an original idea, something with a twist or so. But if someone is interested in making something similar as a follow-up or even a fully blown championship, I'd love to see that.

This gonna be along ass summary so if you want to just skip this fair enough. In short, this was the most fun event I have ever been in, and no, not because I came 1st. Also my footage with the highlights is below if you want to watch, I highly recommend watching the highlights. Now is the long bit. First I want to thank Skiraklaus for this brilliant event, I tried to host something similar to this before which I'm sure many of you remember. That event went RIP for a few reasons but even if it did happen, it would've been blown out of the water by Skira's event. In the race I was completely zoned out of the TS trying not too choke, when I watched the footage I heard everyone saying how the cars and track choice were great. All 3 cars are fun to drive and unique enough to be able to overtake each other in certain areas. In the 7B you plan to overtake the Banshee's in the corners and the Tyrus' on the straights. What was so great about the track is that it was so well made and had almost no flaws in design. Along with the route, The track, apart from the odd choke point, was easy to get clean overtaking and lapping and easy to judge where the faster/slower cars were going. At one point I remember being 4-wide heading to the choke point at the Penris building, as it was so easy to predict and all the drivers were being very clean, we all stringed out and there was no accidents. The track also created great overtaking points, which i abused. I went full Rosberg mode into the final hairpin (it was all clean and legal, just a trip up dive). The length of the track always kept it having an action filled feeling. At one point my HR monitor said I hit 180bpm, to put that into comparison, in Le Mans pro, I never even hit 160. When I cross referenced when I had that 180 bpm it was just after there was a 3-way crash infront of me and I had to swerve. In the highlights of video this is "MATRIX kicked in yo!" @ 45:41. The drivers were also a big part of this event, a friendly bunch of great drivers, (shame I had mic issues D:). Without having that many drivers on the track at once, this event would have felt dead. Endless lapping which is causing the LMP class to overtake each other is a great element and is rare to see in GTA racing. If you got this far I <3 u. For my team mates of Vangelico Le Mans Motorsport, slothedits and FriendlyBaron, GJ guys, 1st, 2nd and 3rd is a great score. To all LMP drivers but especially @novesori and Bezerka3, I thoroughly enjoyed our battles, re-watching them on my video shows just how insane they were. Skirakzalus, no matter what the next event you host is, I want an invite, it may of taken a long time to setup this race(33 Mins late) but it was the best race I've been in in the history of my GTA racing which was OCT 2013 The Footage, look in description for the highlights, recommend you watch them all except pits, they just for confirmation:

I cannot be the only one amazed that Prismide wears a heartbeat monitor while racing right? Is it for medical reasons or are you just a lover of telemetry?

FitBit m9, beeps at me when it thinks I'm having a heart attack as not moving and my HR at 180 XD. Unfortunately for Bezerka3 and @novesori, I wasn't having a heart attack
