Fun Races guys, had some nice battles, some tight overtakes with ovivo. Could finish Top10 at least but had a DC then. Nos, regarding your stuttering, did you try to Alt+Tab the game and go back again? Always when the game hits me with 12-20fps I do this and it's ok after this. //Edit: My Teammate just told me some guys thought I was ragequitted or something? Why? I made a mistake causing Oh_Darn to crash into me, which I tried to avoid (sorry for that again) and shortly after my game froze. I didn't rage, I was very sad that I took Darn out  Really, dont worry about what happened between us, I cant blame you. You tried to do the right thing and I misunderstood. We're cool  |

I was a bit unlucky in both races, some incidents cost me many positions. But that's racing. The 2nd race was not too bad, only one major incident but the rest was very enjoyable - especially GG to michiski22, nice little battle and good job on pressuring me for a long time in the race. I felt you breathe up my bumper  I will link my footage later. |

if i didnt have horrible framedrops and angry grandparents, this wouldve easily been one of the most enjoyable racing experiences ive ever had. but honestly, for every 20 frames i lost i was a second off the pace. at least my grandmas internet didnt disappoint, so there wont be any new lag montages coming out any time soon. gg yarn and kappa for stealing my win in each class scumbags I noticed that you weren´t lagging SimonGood job finding a solution for that. |

Am happy to have had the opportunity to take up reserve duties (though not for the person I expected to reserve for). Unfortunately I ran into both self-inflicted and other peoples' troubles and did not end up with a very good finish--sorry jesusapprovedpl! I will upload my footage of the first race shortly. Additionally, I've talked with Benimi and plan to sub for him on the first race of week 3, maybe the second one too depending on how things go. |

Alright, I am proud to announce our completely original, made in the USA point system for this competition. The point system is called the Freedom, Independence, Allegiance points system also know as the F.I.A. and is as follows. Each race will have somewhat different scoring brackets for many ways to earn points. In the 3 "Showdown" style races (races 1, 2, and 4), you will earn points based on both your overall grid position AND your position relative to vehicles of your type. In the Multi-Class Stock Car race you will be scored only on your position within your class, and for the Youga and the Banshee only race you will only be scored relative to your overall position in the field. There will also be a 5 point bonus for having the fastest lap, and another for having the fastest lap in your type of car. Points will be applied individually as well as to your team's total. Points for position are as follows: 1st: 25 pts 2nd: 18 pts 3rd: 15 pts 4th: 12 pts 5th: 10pts 6th: 8pts 7th: 6 pts 8th: 4 pts 9th: 2 pts 10th: 1pt So for instance, lets say you come in 4th in the first race in a Banshee, behind 3 Losers and you get the fastest lap of all cars. You would then be awarded 12pts for your overall position, 25pts for your position among the Banshees, 5 points for the fastest lap overall, and 5 points for the fastest lap in the Banshees, bringing you a total of 47 points in your first round. Another example, lets say you come in 13th in a Bison with 7 Gresleys in front of you. You would get 0 pts for your overall position, but 8pts for your position among the Bisons. Will this work? Absolutely no clue whatsoever, but I'm trying to be a little different. If there is too much outcry we can just go to the same system as the SATCC. What this does is it makes the Showdowns the more important races and the biggest opportunity to earn points. Oh, and the final round is double points. Maybe we'll see a super comeback at the end? Who knows! After a few calculation, I came to the conclusion that this point scoring system is a lot of work, but very interesting. Take for example Grim, Stepa, Ovivo and me. Race 1Grim got the win in the Verlierer in race 1, rewarding him two times 25 points, totaling 50 Stepa got second in both his class and overall, rewarding 36 points. Ovivo got 5th overall and 3rd in his class, plus 10 points for the overall fastest lap, rewarding him 35 points. I got third in the Banshee and the win in my "class", giving me 15 and 25 points. I also got the fastest Banshee lap, giving me 5 extra points. Totaling 45 points. Race 2Grim got 6th, 4th in the Banshee, giving him 20 points, plus 5 points for the fastest Banshee lap, totaling 25. Stepa won the race, rewarding him 50 points. Ovivo got second in class and overall, rewarding him 36 points. I got 7th, 3rd in the Verlierer, giving me 21 points, plus 10 points for the overall fastest lap, totaling 31. TotalStepa 86 Me 76 Grim 75 Ovivo 71 ConclusionI finished below Grim in the race twice, but ended up with more points because I got first and third in my class, plus 15 points for fastest laps. Stepa got the best results but didnt really build a huge gap because he was consistent but not the fastest in laptimes. Ovivo got two solid results with 10 fastest lap points. If I did this right, you're welcome, Sugar_Free_Nos  If not, keek from kru. |

I believe Channel X Racing has 6 points. (0 for places,0 for best lap,6 for 7th in verlierer) (Contribution scores: Uncle Eddy:0, Esperante:6)

I think my thoughts will echo my teammate's concerning this first raceday - it certainly could have went better. Three disconnects over two races, and one of them taking myself out of 1st place that I had battled for and held since the start of the second race. The little bit of each race that I actually got to drive in was fun though, and I'm glad I got to experience what it was like to hold 1st place for so long in a proper racing event. I got to battle with GalantEvo for a bit before I finally managed a gap to him, and was looking forward to the battle with Nos as he was creeping up to me just before I started to get the lag that would eventually disconnect me.

Despite all the chaos throughout the event, it was fortunate that I was able to avoid most of it.
Besides choosing the wrong car like a dumbass.
Had a couple of minor chokes trying to defend the much faster racers, but at the end of the day it was enjoyable.

I was very mad. Oh god, the airplane mode was all my fault T_T. I lagged into the guy that hit you, but I never even noticed it or I would have waited. That whole time I was mumbling to myself about how I hope I didn't hit anyone and I didn't see anything that immediately looked like I fucked it up with a lag hit. |

Race1 -
20:30 - a wild novesori appears and could prevent a big accident by slamming his car into the wall.

Race1 - 20:30 - a wild novesori appears and could prevent a big accident by slamming his car into the wall. Good that you did that. That's maybe the worst place to choke, every car goes full speed there and it's hard to avoid a standing car Nothing I could do to avoid this. |
