Go for it!

 

[Racer 1966]

Boss Speed sucks.

I don't know WTF is going on, but I keep having to be marshaled for what I feel is not cutting certain corners too tight. This has not happened to me before on this track. Very frustrating.

Oh well. Can't do any worse than second and it's a tie for the fast lap at this point.

I may run again on Speedway since my first run was garbage despite being 1 lap up.

: I've been griping about that ever since we started on this track. This time I changed my approach to those areas with fewer problems.

Come on Josh - I DARE you to run :

 

[Lessen]

OH DAMNIT. I thought I had batteries... I don't. Maybe I can get some on the charger...

Wow!

Lostallo is one big track.

 

[Lessen]

I have a flipping energized charter somewher but I cannot find it for my life. Very frustrating.

 

[robmob]

Do you use your 3PK for VRC?

 

[Racer 1966]

Wow,Rob puts in the first run this week! :OMG:

 

[slowngreen]

Do you use your 3PK for VRC?

Can you use futaba's?

 

[robmob]

Yes. I use my 3PKS with an FM module.

I was asking him because I have a 9 cell battery pack that fits the 3PK that I'm not using anymore.

Wow,Rob puts in the first run this week! :OMG:

I would have had one in on Lostallo as well if it wasn't for the fact that I have never ran on it before. I might put in a run on it tonight if I get the layout memorized to my liking. I was close last night before the the wife kicked me off the computer. LOL

I will be going after your Speedway run as well this evening. If I don't beat it on my 2nd run, of course I will have to immediately do my final run.

 

[robmob]

Looks like you're done on Speedway this week Randy. LOL

I just could not stay clean enough to make up the 3 seconds.

 

[Racer 1966]

Well poop,I was wanting a challenge to run again :\

 

[robmob]

Just put a run in on Lostallo.

It's a throw away since the conditions were not even close to what I used in practice. It took me a bit to get in any sort of groove once I realized it. If would be nice if you actually got a full lap before the race starts. Plus at lap 6 I lost sound which wasn't a big deal since the race only need one pit. Unfortunately the reason I lost sound was because iTunes decided to notify me of an available update by using a giant window in the middle of the race. I had no choice but to stop and close it and just figured I would use the race as online practice.

Lostallo flows really well, but that S/F line is in an odd location and the refuel area is the smallest of any track and easy to overshoot if you are not careful.

 

[Racer 1966]

The S/F sucks and you don't even get to run 1/2 the track for your "practice lap".

 

[robmob]

Damn good first run Randy.

 

[Racer 1966]

Thanks! I don't think 23 laps is possible for me,but maybe 22 and a bit closer to the 10min mark if I have to run again.

 

[robmob]

22 laps is it for myself as well.

You will know if you need to run again by noon tomorrow.

 

[robmob]

Balls in your court Randy.

Improved your run by about 9 seconds and took away your fast lap in the process.:

My run was flawless up until lap 18 where I got tapped by an AI. An AI who I have named Randy hacked me badly on lap 20 and I had to get marshaled. If it were real RC racing, the AI that hacked me would have had to do a stop and go. LOL

Not to pressure you or anything, but if you don't beat me this week this is for you for the Winter Series.

 

[Lessen]

Oh damn! No pressure!
