FORMULA1_4_ FUN :)

Hey guys,

I'm not going to finish the season off. I no longer play F1 2012. My interest has been going for a while and I wasn't putting in much prac. I appreciate that the front runners tried F1 2012 performance as it got me practicing for the last couple of races I had and made the racing fun.

I've started playing iRacing and since the computer is in another room to the ps3 there is zero chance of me moving the wheel for this game. I also don't have the spare time to dedicate to multiple games.

I hope you guys can get more on the grid now you are on racedepartment.

Q 6th: Could have gone a bit quicker but hadn't really practised quali laps.

R 5th: Got past livo at t1 then yeild to kart into eau rouge. Made a few little mistakes first couple of laps, the car felt like a boat on a few of the corners.

As I'm behind stricker I missed the braking into the chicane and tried to avoid the wall. But my wheels were locked and I went straight across the track again. On my screen stricker got past and I sighed with relief but then saw his dot on the map was there. Sorry Stricker, my only thought was miss the wall and after I'd accomplished that I was a passenger. In hindsight I should have gone left of the wall and turned around.

I finally start to get in a rythm and pass stricker who is clearly struggling with the wing damage. I then set to catching Kart, this goes down 1s here 3s there occasionally no change in time. Cam pits and comes out just in front, I use him to keep pace then pit for the hards. I came out about 10s from Kart. I eventually catch Cam who must have made a mistake and we battle for a while, we catch kart and battle. Me and cam get stuck into again and kart pulled a little a way but caught him on the last lap made the pass under DRS and held on until t14 when my left wheel gets stuck on the ripple strip and I go straight into the sand droping from 3rd to 5th 

I'm fine with the time change.

I can start up to an hour later than we do without any problems.

Yeah, I think the ferrari might be a better option for me. I would say I run a similar pace to Kart as we often end up racing each other.

As we'll be trying to iron out the correct cars for everyone. If we are going to change every race how about a system where if you finish above your expected position you move down one car (in terms of those performance ratings) and if you finish below your expected position you move up a performance.

Eg car order using virtual performance than tyre wear and engine power to split the equal ones the order is
Mclaren
Redbull
lotus
Merc
Ferrari
Sauber
Williams
Force India
Toro rosso

Expected finish order E.g.
1) Moss - Torro Rosso
2) Stubs- Force India
3) Livo - Williams
4) Stricker-Sauber
5) Kartdude-Ferrari
6) Andrew-Mercedes
7) SupaNash- Lotus
Angry - Lotus
9) Gazza-Redbull
10) Macca-Mclaren

So for example if I finished above 8th I would move to the merc next race but if I finished 9th or tenth I move to the Redbull.

We can always agree on a different order for the cars but this should also buffer for those one off bad and good races. Also makes it not worth tanking when in a bad spot.

I know it's been a while sonce I raced but wont be there tomorrow as it's my wedding anniversary.

Way too hot in my lounge room for me tonight, so I'm a DNS too.
