Also I'm glad people enjoyed me commentating always had the feeling people hated me to break their consitration by my horrible english. Turned out to be fine at the end anyway! :] I want you to commentate over every race i play lol. Would have joined you on mic as well but I was really tired and couldnt concentrate too much to begin with either. Your english is fine

I forgot to add something that you reminded me of, and that was about not having enough time. Because you need a lot of cash to get all these cars, I was thinking that if we do this again some time, why not use stock cars? It's not like they are undrivable, and then we can practice whenever we like because you can just choose the car and not have to buy it yourself. With this idea we could also prevent us from picking bad cars because we can see if they work within 24 hours and change the car we use easily so we get better races done. Anyways, thanks to Jonti for organizing the event and to resevoirdoc for hosting, and also to everyone who participated.

Well that race was definitely something haha. Started 11th and got nudged into Gdpud on the first corner leaving me in 12th and a long way to catch up. Managed to battle my way up to 2nd after a few laps before the inevitable happened....touched a curb ever so slighty and I went flying. Whoever was behind at the time must have had a great view. Recovered into 6th place and went on a charge up the field. Had a great battle with pindadoper for a while but then lightning struck a second time....the same stupid curb sent me flying again! Somehow I managed to get up to 2nd with a lap to go but TDWPMark, you were just too far ahead by that point so congrats on the win today mate. Overall, thanks Jontti500 for organising this whole event! It was certainly an ambitious effort to maintain across all of the consoles.

Thanks man, I was constantly looking at the map on the final straight, you had more speed as I screwed up and slid on the final corner. 0.6 seconds between us after 43 minutes is pretty damn close. A couple of thank you's, firstly to Jontti500 for organizing this event, you've done a great job and secondly to reservoirdoc for being our host on PS3.

TDWPMark Yeah, I'm pretty impressed at how close that finish was as well! It would have been very interesting if there was another lap I think I got up into 2nd just before the start of the final lap so I was definitely on a charge! Seeing your car get closer and closer was just spurring me on more and more haha

Pundip I'm pretty sure you would have got me if there was 1 more lap, and I think Tjezc would have taken the win if it was 7 laps.

Why all the fuss about the F620, Surge and Voltic? They all got most of the votes. Just deal with the situation and adapt to the car., trying to get the most out of it. If you do, there might be a chance you'll actually like driving any given car!
Maybe the Voltic was too easy for North Loop, but hell, that tiny little car drives like a charm! The handling takes me back to the San Andreas days. Thanks for having me in the championship and nice driving all PS3 participants!
As for the players that still need to drive: good luck! Go Sprunk!

@spain is the winner of the Xbox360 side. TDWPMark and pindadoper had exactly the same points, they had both 2 wins and 0 2nd places. pindadoper takes it becouse he had a third place finish and TDWPMark had no third place finishes. Gratz to @spain and pindadoper for the wins. I'll update the teampoints once we have had the current gen races. PS. i think this is the first thread in the history of this forum to reach 100 pages. Don't know if that is a good thing or not.

That was a fun race, and a fun series. Congrats to TDWPMark for the win. Watching the slew of lead changes was impressive. I can only imagine how fierce the battles were up at the front of the pack. Having eight racers all finish within a minute and the top two finish within a second of one another is truly impressive. Especially when considering the difficult nature of the track and the length of the race. Very cool. Congrats to TDWPMark and pindadoper for the PS3 Championship as well. You both did very well throughout the series. Congrats to 24/7 Supermarkets for the team win! A truly dominant finale. Thanks to Jontti500 for organizing it; that was no small feat. Keeping track of four races on four consoles with upwards of fifty participants had to be a daunting task. Placating the masses' boundless variety of preferences for vehicle and track choices could not have been easy either. In regards to the track and vehicle choices, I thought they were great. They were all fun and challenging. Thanks to reservoirdoc as well for being a great host. Very few DC and very prompt with getting underway. I thought for sure I could catch you on that last lap, but it wasn't to be. Already looking forward to another shot at the title though. Edit: Lest I forget our track creators as well. I know LancerEvoWRC helped us out, but for the life of me I can't remember who else.

Congratulations to pindadoper on the championship win, you were pretty consistent with your speed through all of the races and you deserved it more than I did.

Could also host if needed, I suppose my connection is good enough for that.
