Guest113 has become Plus One.
Plus One FTW: Hei Nuppiz
RMC Broadcast: Terve
RMC Broadcast: This qualifying confirmed that driver skill has a much bigger effect than the car itself
Plus One FTW: Yep, Jose Braggia would have done better had he not put those two wheels on the grass at turn 6 on his flying run :)
Plus One FTW: And Apostolos showed that speed is yet another thing the Greeks can't do :D
Plus One has left the room.

Guest114 has become Plus One.
Plus One FTW: Hopefully more people will join the chat soon. It was quite busy last time IIRC
RMC Broadcast: Yep
Guest116 has entered the room.
RMC Broadcast: Decided to try starting a bit earlier this time, so I don't have to stay up so late
Guest116 has become BLNishungry.
Guest117 has entered the room.
Guest117 has left the room.
Plus One FTW: The races go on for longer than you would think don't they? I use accelerated time in my alternate F1 when there's not much going on on track so the race doesn't drag on so much
Guest118 has entered the room.
Guest118 has left the room.
RMC Broadcast: I don't use accelerated time because it ruins the replays
RMC Broadcast: the cars look like they're floating around the corners
Plus One FTW: They move oddly and the crashes are especially distorted
RMC Broadcast: yep, I only use it in qualifying
Guest119 has entered the room.
RMC Broadcast: which is why I'm never reporting any possible qualifying incidents
Plus One FTW: I think in rFactor they fixed the 'skip session' bug, so the cars actually show their true performance when you do skip, so I use that in qualifying
Guest119 has become Ai the Witch.
Ai the Witch has left the room.
Plus One FTW: And BLN, lurking in the background, you don't happen to have the munchies do you
BLN: I am quite hungry...I may have to put dinner on in a sec
RMC Broadcast: I'm running in windowed mode now so it's a bit easier to switch between the game and chat now
Plus One FTW: I manage to borrow my mum's laptop which makes it much easier, as I can run the race on my tower and comment on it with the laptop
BLN: not a bad plan
RMC Broadcast: One good side in the Österreichring is that there's plenty of holes in the walls where I can drive my car into so it falls into the void
RMC Broadcast: If only I would remember to do it early enough this time, in Jarama, France and Italy there's been so much happening on the first lap that I've just barely avoided getting into the way of AI cars
RMC Broadcast: FMecha should've stayed here so we could've started the race...
Plus One FTW: Aaah, the famous ISI void :D Why don't you set the races to do a formation lap, on on the formation lap drive into the pits and into one of the garages? or park at the end of the pitlane where the safety car goes?
Guest120 has entered the room.
BLN: right, food...I'll leave myself logged in so I can see what lap Balzary retires on
Plus One FTW: May I recommend a pizza? :D
Guest120 has become Ai the Witch.
Ai the Witch: *storm* *storm*
RMC Broadcast: I've tried, but there's two problems: the game doesn't do a proper formation lap on this many cars, and even if there were less the race wouldn't start because I'm not on the grid
RMC Broadcast: Right, that's our three spectators
RMC Broadcast: Welcome to Österreichring in Austria
Plus One FTW: Oh, in rFactor if you're not on the grid after the formation lap, the race starts anyway :D
BLN: that's dinner in the oven now, sorted.
RMC Broadcast: the weather is sunny and hot, perfect for racing
RMC Broadcast: so, let's start
RMC Broadcast: 5
BLN: asda beef lasagne
RMC Broadcast: 4
RMC Broadcast: 2
RMC Broadcast: 3
RMC Broadcast: 1
RMC Broadcast: GO!
Ai the Witch: Aaaaahhhhhhhh!!!!
Plus One FTW: Sounds lovely BLN :P
Plus One FTW: And we're go go go!!
BLN: only £1, I'm such a good student
Plus One FTW: ''Braggia storms through the pack!"
Ai the Witch: [OoC] Start positions?
RMC Broadcast: Kickert, Boullier and di Longo stall!
BLN: trolololol
Plus One FTW: Yesh!
RMC Broadcast: FMecha: http://i1213.photobucket.com/albums/cc464/Nuppiz/F1C/91AustriaQuali.jpg
BLNishungry has become My ear hurts.
Ai the Witch: Not that, but the positions at lap one, Nuppiz.
My ear hurts has become BLN.
RMC Broadcast: Richardson and Jong-Sung lose their front wings in the ensuing chaos
RMC Broadcast: be patient, there's so many incidents happening at the moment
RMC Broadcast: Anker loses both wings
Guest121 has entered the room.
RMC Broadcast: Generic lost his front wing
Guest121 has become BILDDE.
Plus One FTW: Guten tag Klon, at least I presume it's Klon :D
Guest122 has entered the room.
Guest122 has become Darkapprentice77.
Darkapprentice77: has the race started yet???
Guest123 has entered the room.
Guest123 has become East Londoner.
BLN: yes
Darkapprentice77: damn
Darkapprentice77: who stalled??
Ferrarist: In addition to the RMC Broadcast, BILD.DE (Yeah, I know that we have 1991) is going to provide "alternate" coverage of the LifeGP race at Austria.
RMC Broadcast: Kickert has got his car going, but he's missing the rear wing
East Londoner has become Walthamstow FTW.
Ai the Witch has left the room.
Ferrarist: Shocking! Another reckless driver endangers his fellow drivers, by refusing to park his damaged-beyond-repair car in the pits!
BLN: lol
London Calling: How long have the Sandinistas lasted this time around?
Guest124 has entered the room.
Walthamstow FTW has become London Calling.
Guest124 has left the room.
Plus One FTW: And while I remember, dark aprrentice, are you a Star Wars fan by any chance? :D
RMC Broadcast: After lap 1 the order is: van Dycke, Fernandez, Davies, Wilson, Arthurs, von Gottorp, Braggia, Graham, J. Smith, Ramone
Plus One has become Plus One FTW.
London Calling: Bloody hell, those upgrades worked wonders for Rachel! :O
Ferrarist: It's telling! Just one lap has passed, and we already have damaged cars. Scandalous!
Guest125 has entered the room.
BLN has become whataLIFE.
Guest125 has left the room.
RMC Broadcast: Yoshino pulls into the pits with a broken gearbox
Darkapprentice77: hows that greek guy doing?
RMC Broadcast: and Bogan's engine is doing it's best Chinese factory emulation
Darkapprentice77: and yes i like star wars
Darkapprentice77: i actually hate this name but i can't think of anything else
RMC Broadcast: and there he goes, over the wall!
Plus One FTW: He works for Plus One now, so we'll have no Greek-themed insults
Ferrarist: As another gearbox suffers a failure, BILD has exclusive information from sources close to the teams, which say that the gearbox are indeed just cheap Chinese imitations!
Plus One FTW: Well, maybe a few will do
RMC Broadcast: The Greek Guy is now 20th after Bogan's retirement
Darkapprentice77: lol
Ferrarist: BREAKING NEWS! Another horrifying accident took place, after Bogan's car went over the wall! Stay tuned for further news on that.
Plus One FTW: [ICas Luke Knight] Cheap Chines imitations? Pah. I'll have you know Jerry that we are using prime Vietnamese imitations!
Guest126 has entered the room.
Guest126 has become Herbalife.
Guest127 has entered the room.
RMC Broadcast: and that's von Gottorp at the side of the road!
Herbalife: Has the r
Guest127 has left the room.
Herbalife: Has the race already started?
Darkapprentice77: yes
Plus One FTW: Haha, the irony
Ferrarist: Shocking confessions around the Austrian GP: Some teams are using gearbox imitations from Vietnam! So much for the "war" our American friends have fought years ago...
Herbalife: Let me guess, have both of my drivers stalled?
whataLIFE has become BLN.
RMC Broadcast: and as we see a replay of Bogan's accident, it's a perfect barrell roll after an engine failure
RMC Broadcast: von Gottorp out, mechanical failure
RMC Broadcast: my guess is brakes
Ferrarist: The next part gives up. It's the brakes this time. How long will it take, before brake failures cause another serious accident?
RMC Broadcast: Jericho 10th, di Longo stalled
RMC Broadcast: Jong-Sung has retired as well
Darkapprentice77: aww i wanted kim to do well
Ferrarist: Finally some good news! The supposed North Korean "Agent" has failed today
Ferrarist: 's mission, to "bring glory to best Korea!"
RMC Broadcast: Richardson, rear-ended him as he slowed down to enter the pits
RMC Broadcast: 22 cars still running
BILDDE has become Ferrarist.
Ferrarist: Surprise, surprise! I'm not Klon! It's me Austin...I meant, it's me guys! Anyway, where are my drivers running?
Plus One FTW: Has Braggia managed to catapult the FGC-Life to the front of the field? And was hat you revealing your real name, Ferrarist?
Herbalife: Sure, Klon would have called himself "Dr. Currywurst"
RMC Broadcast: Smith 8th, Tenpecost 13th
RMC Broadcast: and that's Jericho pulling into the pits!
RMC Broadcast: he retires!
Herbalife: Weeeee!
Ferrarist has become BILD.
BILD has become ESPN.
RMC Broadcast: Gearbox failure
Herbalife: I think I'll revert to a one-car operation for the next race if the rules allow it
Ferrarist: David Hobbs: "That's surely millions and millions of The Rocks
Herbalife: And I'd dump di Longo
RMC Broadcast: and at the same time Tenpecost overtakes Balzary on the main straight, he's now 11th
Ferrarist: David Hobbs: "That's surely millions and millions of The Rock's fans...I mean parts that have given up by this point."
RMC Broadcast: I'm not sure it's possible this late in the season
BLN has left the room.
Herbalife: OK
Plus One FTW: If you don't want two drivrs East Londoner, why don't you employ true reject fasion and employ and a different pay driver every one or two races? :D
ESPN has become BILD.
Herbalife: Huh? I'm not East Londoner
RMC Broadcast: I'll have to check Herbalife's budget to see if it can be converted to a one-car operation
Herbalife: Thank you
Plus One FTW: Damn blast and dammit, pasta's brain's not that good out of school hours
RMC Broadcast: although one of the other teams might be keen to sign di Longo, he's had a few quid spent into his skills as well
Plus One FTW: FGC is interested
Herbalife: Yeah, but I'm dumping him because he has less points than Jericho
Herbalife: He only has a single point
Herbalife: And Jericho has like 4-5
Herbalife: And, honestly, I prefer to spend the money on developing the car
RMC Broadcast: D. Smith has retired in the first corner, and is hit by Yazaki!
RMC Broadcast: he's without a front wing now
Ferrarist: The Kamikaze-Japanese strike again! One of them has taken out a fellow driver!
RMC Broadcast: and Mantis has a low-speed roll in the Boschkurve
RMC Broadcast: ahem, Smith had already stopped by that point
London Calling: Oh dear, this is providing perfect ammunition for the Daily Mail's expose piece...
RMC Broadcast: seriously, how did Mantis achieve that?
RMC Broadcast: he somehow managed to drive his car into the inner curve at a low speed so that it rolled over like a barrell
London Calling: BAN THIS SICK FILTH - The Daily Fail
London Calling: How are the Sandinista duo doing?
RMC Broadcast: and Alianopoulous' engine is smoking!
Plus One FTW: Will he last for the remaining x amount of laps?
Ferrarist: Hey! BILD was here first! The trashpapers from the tommies can go to other series!
RMC Broadcast: and Generic has overtaken both Start 'n' Parks...OH A COLLiSION
Darkapprentice77: sounds bad...
RMC Broadcast: Yazaki slows down on the main straight, gets hit by Wellholme who is in turn hit by Gunselman
RMC Broadcast: luckily, all cars had slowed down earlier so the collision didn't happen at high speed
RMC Broadcast: and Bell has retired with a gearbox failure
RMC Broadcast: both SnP cars are missing their front wings now though
Ferrarist: LifeGP was lucky that the collision wasn't worse. But since the cars failed before the collision anyway, BILD can still blast LifeGP. :)
RMC Broadcast: Yazaki is now running around the track without both wings
Ferrarist: Kamikaze-Japanese is still striking! One wonders, if he's on an actual kamikaze mission...
RMC Broadcast: Car 14 (Yazaki) Under investigation - causing an avoidable collision
RMC Broadcast: aaaand Alianopoulous' engine finally failed
RMC Broadcast: GUNSELMAN!
Darkapprentice77: oh dear...
Plus One FTW: seen as we're in austria, oh deer....
Darkapprentice77: lol
London Calling: Yes, deer, it's like a horse with horns...
RMC Broadcast: he nearly chops Wilson's front wing off while being lapped
RMC Broadcast: luckily, no visible damage to either car
Plus One FTW: What, the deer?
RMC Broadcast: and there's a collision between Braggia and Graham!
Guest128 has entered the room.
Plus One FTW: WHAT?!?!!?!
Guest128 has left the room.
Plus One FTW: Braggia! Stahp! Crashing!
RMC Broadcast: Braggia stops on the track and Graham has nowhere to go!

RMC Broadcast: Graham continues, but without a front wing
Guest129 has left the room.
Guest130 has entered the room.
Guest130 has become Salamander.
Plus One FTW: [IC] Herrmann! Pass the Jagermeister, both muppets have gone and bloody retired again!
Salamander: what've i missed so far?
RMC Broadcast: and that's the other Smith on the side of the road!
BILD has become Ferrarist.
Ferrarist: NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO!
RMC Broadcast: a few rejectful incidents and spectacular engine failures
RMC Broadcast: Miraculously, Davies is still in the race, currently 3rd
Guest131 has entered the room.

RMC Broadcast: followed by Balzary, Graham, Generic, Richardson, Wellholme and Gunselman

RMC Broadcast: another unspectacular pulling-over on the main straight
RMC Broadcast: *yawn*
RMC Broadcast: it's a good time to take a commercial break, we'll be right back after these messages
Herbalife: Tired of your tasteless average fruit? Perhaps it's time to try something more exotic
Herbalife: Perhaps it's time to try PAPAYAS!!!!!!
Herbalife: Restore your faith in fruit with PAPAYAS!
Darkapprentice77: papayas....sponser of RMC :D
Herbalife: Yes, I've just made up a cheap ad lol
Plus One FTW has left the room.
Ferrarist: Why go through the trouble of looking after and paying a driver, when you can just sign someone, WHO PAYS YOU! Hi, I'm Jean-Deniz Deletraz! You may know me from my "terrific" stints at teams like Larrousse or Pacific. Today, I'm introducing the brand new product for the cash-strapped team owner. It's called "GENII". They bring the drivers, and cash, and you just put them into your racecars. What could possibly go wrong? Why don't you try the services of GENII now?
London Calling: Whut? It's 1991...
London Calling: Who the funk is Pacific Grand Prix?
London Calling: And who in the blue hell is JDD? :P
Darkapprentice77: i think
Ferrarist: Urm...let's just handwave it by claiming that this is "future" Deletraz. He got back to the past, through the use of a "special" DeLorean DMC-12.^^
Darkapprentice77: that Pacific is an F3000 team...
Darkapprentice77: they're doing quite well this year :)
Herbalife: INTERESTING NEWS AHEAD!!!! Italian fashion entrepreneur seeks investors willing to invest in F1
Herbalife: That's right, if you have a few quid under your couch and you don't know what to do with them YOU could BECOME a F1 INVESTOR
Ferrarist: Oh cool! Who is it, Gianni Versace?
Herbalife: The pinnacle of motorsport, an international sport with exposure all over the world was never so accesible!
Herbalife: So why wait?
Herbalife: Call Andrea Sassetti right NOW!!!!
Herbalife: 555-FLUSH-MY-MONEY
RMC Broadcast: and we're back
Darkapprentice77 has become Dark_homework.
RMC Broadcast: and Richardson just had a gearbox failure, he retires in the pits
RMC Broadcast: [OOC] Amusing stuff there on the commercial break :D

Herbalife: von Gottorp is out
Herbalife: Thought I should mention this to you
Dark_homework: where's Davies??
Dr Currywurst: oh that's nice - after more old insane bastard shenenigans or just blandly pulling over to the side?
RMC Broadcast: van Dycke leads, Davies second, Wilson third, Arthurs fourth, Tenpecost fifth, Balzary sixth, Graham seventh, Generic eighth, Wellholme ninth and Gunselman tenth and last
RMC Broadcast: the latter
Dr Currywurst: lame! :D

Dr Currywurst: facking chatroom - we really need to find something better for all series :D
RMC Broadcast: I was thinking of IRC the other day
Dark_homework: we could use livestream
Dr Currywurst: don't you have to have clients for IRC?
Dr Currywurst: external programs are a no-no
RMC Broadcast: I've used JavaIRC in the past, it works in the browser without an external application
RMC Broadcast: provided you have Java installed, of course
RMC Broadcast: zzzzzz....
RMC Broadcast: van Dycke has started the penultimate lap
Guest135 has become Rated.

London Calling: YES!

AndreaModa: that must mean he/she leads?
AndreaModa: ah yes
Nuppiz: well then, that ends our coverage from Austria
Nuppiz: good night, we'll see you next week in Czechoslovakia!
London Calling has left the room.
Nuppiz: in other words: off-topic time
Fine Herbs has left the room.
Nuppiz: fun fact: as Cave Armstrong is fit to race in Czechoslovakia, this means Mike Boullier completed only one race lap in three GPs
