BATracer: Planetcricket Championship

[treva]

I'd take the Audi Le Mans Quatro myself!

Around Monaco? You gotta be kiding. The track's too tight and there's way too many corners for a car like that to go round there. The Skyline on the other hand can drift round those corners with ease

I'm happy to be in the Ferrari F1

 

[Themer]

Woop, great race for me slowly getting myself up the standings.

 

[treva]

This is beyond a joke. I would've crusied to victory and then my bloody gerbox goes! In just 15 laps I had made 12 seconds between me and Abhas so the win would've easily been mine.

I hate this game!

 

[Abhas]

That's coz I was on one stop
I would have won anyway

 

[treva]

No chance, Brawn is by far the fastest car on the track everywhere.

The car is meant to be something like the 3rd reliable car and yet between us me and Ben have had 6 retirements! It's a complete joke.

 

[Abhas]

Setups matter my friend
We had the Best Setups..

 

[Themer]

Unlucky Trev you've been consistantly quickest in practise, generally quick in qualifying then are forced out of the races.

I've been lucky so far, haven't had a single retirement *touch wood*.

 

[treva]

You had the best set up because we both crashed. You said so yourself that it isn't a fair judgement unless you do all the laps

Thanks Jack. Good to see at least one of us Jacks getting some luck and some decent results

 

[Mercules]

I stupidly forgot to start on wets and the 3 stop strategy was definitely a mistake. Was well surprised to find I'd got the 3rd best setup so it was perhaps a little disappointing to finish 5th but I've still got a 7 point championship lead so ah well.

That is true in case of a weather change within the race.
Consider this :
* The race is in dry weather. *
I set my car up for dry weather, get 100%.
I crash out in the 2nd lap.
* Rain comes, say, in the 30th lap *
You had a 100% setup for dry weather, but that is not 100% for wet weather.
You finish the race. (It's still raining)

Your setup will be somewhere in the region of 60-70%
I would have a 100%. - Because I crashed out before the rain came, and when i crashed, my setup was 100%.

Hope that made sense

 

[treva]

I know, you've told me it before. But surely it will be the same case for crashing out, because if you crash out your setup has ultimately failed.

Still, 12 seconds faster than you in 15 laps is pretty fast, and at that rate I would catch you up way before your pit stop and my second. My second and third stint are always much longer than my first. My first is just to start out quick and make some room.

Fast again in practice. Can we please get points for pole positions?

 

[Kshitiz_Indian]

It really is a joke. When I've selected in Race Strategy I want to use wet tyres it goes on and uses intermediates? WTF?

This is why I came 7'th, otherwise I was easily cruising towards 4/3'rd and maybe could've gone higher.

 

[treva]

You can't have hit save. The game won't screw up like that, it's just your fault...

 

[Kshitiz_Indian]

Well it was saved, as I just checked. The Wet tyre slider was 100 towards Wet, intermediate like 70, Hard Slick on 0 towards dry and Soft Slick 25 towards dry. Are those wrong?
