1992 LGPS Spanish GP commentary

16:43:54: <Nuppiz> BTW we'll be having more reject motorsport tonight
16:44:14: <RealRacingRoots> Oh?
16:44:25: <Nuppiz> LGPS live from Spain
16:44:42: <RealRacingRoots> nice
16:44:52: <RealRacingRoots> I finally got working on the RTS Livery for the IFRC
16:45:04: <Nuppiz> no rush
16:45:14: <Salamander> lifegp?
16:45:14: <Salamander> :D hopefully this time one of the al smiths will finish
16:45:39: <RealRacingRoots> one of the al smiths...?
16:45:51: <Nuppiz> well both managed to prequalify
16:46:56: <Salamander> al smith racing enterprises, my team in lifegp
16:47:09: <RealRacingRoots> i thought they were drivers
16:47:21: <RealRacingRoots> kinda like the doppelgang in ARLA
16:49:27: <Barri_Klon_o> hopefully nobody finishes
16:49:45: <Barri_Klon_o> we still haven't had a no-finishers race ;_;
16:50:09: <RealRacingRoots> I think it may be a bit late for that =(
16:50:15: <Salamander> itll be the le mans race where everybodys guaranteed to start
16:50:42: <RealRacingRoots> 56 car grid
16:50:48: <Nuppiz> 41
16:50:54: <RealRacingRoots> for lemans?
16:51:00: <Nuppiz> yes
16:51:06: <Nuppiz> all 41 cars
16:51:38: <Salamander> whats the maximum amount of cars that can start at le mans, btw?
16:53:05: <RealRacingRoots> hehe http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Qm7R0B2evU
16:53:06: <Nuppiz> 47
16:53:40: <Nuppiz> theoretically
16:59:02: <Nuppiz> main qualifying over, guess who's on pole...
16:59:40: <Salamander> jan van der maeyede :D
16:59:53: <Nuppiz> not too far off, he was 7th
17:00:03: <Salamander> good enough
17:00:08: <Salamander> gio van dycke?
17:00:13: <Nuppiz> second
17:00:18: <Nuppiz> Dave Wilson on pole
17:00:29: <Nuppiz> .283 ahead of van Dycke
17:00:53: <Salamander> booo
17:00:55: <Nuppiz> von Gottorp third, .942 from Wilson
17:01:29: <Nuppiz> Kim Jong-Sund did not set a time at all
17:01:36: <RealRacingRoots> what's the field spread?
17:01:38: <Nuppiz> Sung
17:01:59: <Nuppiz> Mikhail Karimov is 27th, 6.601 from pole
17:03:19: <Nuppiz> this is the second time Jong-Sung fails to set a time in qualifying
17:03:35: <Nuppiz> first one was in Brno last season
17:11:36: <Nuppiz> for once I get to start the race early
17:11:47: <Nuppiz> don't have to stay up all night
17:17:08: <dark77> life gp in 13 mins :D
17:17:42: <RealRacingRoots> How many stallers guys?
17:17:59: <Rated> Our new livery puts us right in the middle of the grid. Not bad.
17:18:33: <captain_getz> wohoo best qualifying yet for Sunset!
17:19:29: <Salamander> im guessing 2 stallers
17:20:28: <captain_getz> Jarama is very narrow isnt it? so im guessing there will be more failed overtakes this time
17:20:32: <RealRacingRoots> i'm guessing 3
17:20:38: <RealRacingRoots> and a crash at the start
17:23:55: <Nuppiz> there was one last year
17:24:13: <Nuppiz> Christopher Arthurs pitched James Davies into a roll
17:24:24: <Nuppiz> hopefully it won't rain this time
17:24:46: <Nuppiz> caused some nasty accidents last year
17:25:30: <dark77> oh yeah, i remember last year
17:25:56: <captain_getz> yeah that was a cluster**** when I was stuck with the highlight reels
17:26:21: <captain_getz> *even when I was stuck
17:32:42: <captain_getz> so, when does the race start :s
17:33:19: <Nuppiz> now
17:34:09: <Nuppiz> two stallers
17:34:30: <RealRacingRoots> salamander wins the prize
17:34:41: <Salamander> booyeah :D
17:34:45: <Nuppiz> Sunset and Greenwood
17:35:15: <captain_getz> so much for staying out of last at the start
17:35:28: <captain_getz> is the car out?
17:36:49: <Nuppiz> Stalick knocks Alianopoulos as they try too avoid Sunset, Alianopoulos hits the wall and loses his rear wing
17:37:03: <Salamander> nooooo
17:37:05: <Nuppiz> Stalic, to*
17:37:06: <Salamander> apostolos :(
17:37:19: <Rated> GRA. He qualifies, and retires early :c
17:37:47: <Nuppiz> both stallers retire
17:38:12: <captain_getz> damn it, and I thought adding more to reliability would stop this from happening
17:38:31: <RealRacingRoots> stallers have their own upgrade thingy
17:38:34: <Salamander> adding reliability doesnt stop you from stalling
17:38:36: <Salamander> yeah
17:38:37: <RealRacingRoots> driver starts
17:38:41: <Nuppiz> Bell overtakes Donnelly
17:38:54: <Salamander> bleh
17:38:58: <Nuppiz> yep, driver start upgrades and experience reduce stalling
17:39:00: <Rated> Reliability is only for the engine I think
17:39:13: <Nuppiz> that is correct
17:39:42: <Weetabixia> howdy
17:39:59: <Rated> Erm, not good news for you I think
17:40:00: <Nuppiz> CRASH!
17:40:04: <Salamander> sup
17:40:13: <Weetabixia> ahh...
17:40:17: <captain_getz> both Sunset and Greenwood are out
17:40:18: <Rated> Greenwood stalled
17:40:20: <Nuppiz> BLOG AND TENPENNY HAVE CRASHED
17:40:28: <Rated> Damnit.
17:40:29: <captain_getz> least I took out one of the GLB cars
17:40:33: <Weetabixia> oh, shitballs...
17:40:59: <Salamander> more importantly, apostolos lost his rear wing :(
17:41:00: <Nuppiz> Getz, you actually took out the crowd favorite in the Racing for Greece car
17:41:12: <captain_getz> oh well, least I can finish up my totally-not-arrows colored Metro 6r4
17:41:22: <Salamander> i thought that was stalic?
17:41:24: <Nuppiz> or more like Stalic took him out
17:41:30: <Nuppiz> when avoiding Sunset
17:41:51: <Salamander> yeah :(
17:42:01: <captain_getz> and now I must pray for my rival Karimov to DNF
17:43:10: <Nuppiz> well he did lost his front wing
17:43:18: <Nuppiz> so, here's the replay...
17:43:35: <Nuppiz> Blog spins, and gets hit by Tenpenny
17:43:52: <Nuppiz> both are out on the spot, but it causes a blockage where Karimov loses his front wing
17:44:08: <captain_getz> Tenpenny has had some rotten luck these past few races :/
17:44:47: <Salamander> yeah but nobody cares about him :p
17:45:41: <dark77> i think tenpenny has always had bad luck
17:46:15: <Nuppiz> von Gottorp has overtaken van Dycke
17:46:29: <Salamander> bleh
17:46:38: <Salamander> is vdm doing much?
17:46:57: <Nuppiz> Arthurs is in the gravel!
17:47:36: <Barri_Klon_o> let's go Gottorp!
17:47:46: <Salamander> yeah
17:47:46: <Salamander> stop wilson winning
17:48:10: <Nuppiz> van Dycke retakes his place
17:48:16: <Barri_Klon_o> boooo
17:48:21: <captain_getz> guess the reign of the rookies is over as of Brazil
17:48:23: <Nuppiz> VDM is 6th
17:48:35: <Salamander> yay :D
17:48:57: <Nuppiz> ...and he retired immediatedly after that
17:49:15: <Salamander> van dycke?
17:49:19: <Nuppiz> no, VDM
17:49:38: <Salamander> GODDAMIT :/
17:49:46: <Rated> At least he has shown some improvement, he was hopeless last year
17:50:02: <captain_getz> back to prequalifying for VDM, again?
17:50:08: <Salamander> yeah
17:50:16: <Salamander> but hes fast enough to get out again
17:50:27: <Nuppiz> Baker is smoking
17:50:29: <captain_getz> yeah, and rob one of the rookies of a spot
17:50:53: <Barri_Klon_o> if he were smoking (hot), Baker's Law wouldn't be a thing
17:50:57: <Barri_Klon_o> dohohohoho
17:51:51: <Nuppiz> Donnelly tries to overtake Bell, but isn't successful
17:53:05: <Nuppiz> von Gottorp!
17:53:14: <Nuppiz> he's engine has blown up!
17:53:16: <Nuppiz> his
17:53:28: <Salamander> well thats something i guess
17:53:52: <captain_getz> let me guess, all the veterans except Wilson are out
17:53:52: <Salamander> now we just need van dycke and wilson to go the same way
17:53:59: <Salamander> nope
17:54:04: <Salamander> van dycke is still there
17:54:27: <Nuppiz> and Baker's car has failed as well
17:55:00: <Nuppiz> that saves von Gottorp from PQ by a few hundred meters
17:55:23: <Salamander> great, now donnelly is safe :D
17:55:41: <Salamander> although he'll still be a worthless sack of crap and not score
17:55:41: <Barri_Klon_o> dammit
17:56:17: <Nuppiz> wait
17:56:33: <captain_getz> I need more points to dump into starts now, when I want more speed for the Lemans superprix
17:56:45: <Nuppiz> Baker is moved ahead of von Gottorp?
17:56:56: <Rated> haha baker
17:56:58: <Salamander> lol :D
17:57:03: <Salamander> go with it
17:57:18: <Nuppiz> F1C Ai at it's best, he was transported to the pits while von Gottorp wasn't
17:57:45: <Salamander> von gottorp doesnt need to be saved from pre-q
17:57:47: <Nuppiz> because Baker retired in the middle of the track but von Gottorp was way off in the gravel trap
17:57:59: <Salamander> welp
17:58:00: <captain_getz> knew that foxhound should have went with Grey Fox for the backup driver
17:58:24: <Nuppiz> Karimov overtakes Baker
17:58:35: <Salamander> bad news pasta
17:58:35: <Pasta> Good evening gentlemen!
17:58:36: <Nuppiz> that means all remaining cars are safe from PQ
17:58:39: <Pasta> pasta is back
17:58:40: <Salamander> :(
17:58:40: <Salamander> vdm is out
17:58:45: <Pasta> Oh noes!!!1
17:58:45: <RealRacingRoots> hello my fellow comrade
17:58:52: <Pasta> Was he leading again?
17:58:58: <Salamander> no
17:59:02: <Salamander> he just took 6th
17:59:10: <Salamander> hed be 5th right now
17:59:20: <Salamander> since von gottorp just went out
17:59:26: <captain_getz> who, Karimov?
17:59:40: <captain_getz> who, Karimov?
17:59:57: <captain_getz> who, Karimov?
18:00:07: <Rated> No, van der maeyede
18:00:18: <Nuppiz> Ramone is on fire
18:00:21: <Nuppiz> literally
18:00:31: <captain_getz> from water to fire?
18:00:32: <Pasta> The amazing Van der Maeyede, I'll have you know ;)
18:00:43: <Pasta> How's Kickert doing?
18:00:59: <Nuppiz> WILSON HAS RETIRED!
18:01:01: <Salamander> its my goal to get vdm into championship contention
18:01:01: <Salamander> also that wacky danny ramone :D
18:01:01: <captain_getz> least no one has to worry about spinning out behind my car
18:01:02: <Salamander> YES
18:01:04: <Salamander> HELL YES
18:01:18: <Nuppiz> gearbox
18:01:20: <Salamander> come on van dycke's engine
18:01:22: <Pasta> YES!
18:01:26: <Salamander> you know you want to blow up
18:01:33: <captain_getz> whose in the top 6 now?
18:01:40: <Salamander> where does that leave donnelly and gomes then?
18:01:42: <Pasta> This will help Kickert, if he's still on track and if he's still up front
18:01:59: <Salamander> kickerts still going arm
18:01:59: <Salamander> atm
18:02:52: <Nuppiz> Top 10: van Dycke, Kickert, Graham, Braggia, Ramone, Roberts, Anker, Howard, Bell, Donnelly
18:03:17: <Pasta> Oh yes!
18:03:20: <Nuppiz> Ramone will be out soon, so Mazzacane will be promoted to top 10
18:03:30: <Pasta> Reliability's gone back to being shocking for FGCR as well
18:03:30: <Rated> MAZZACANE !
18:03:39: <Nuppiz> lap 7/37
18:03:45: <Salamander> so how far off of the points is donelly
18:03:52: <Nuppiz> 10th
18:04:04: <Rated> Soon to be 9th
18:04:14: <Nuppiz> 9th once Ramone's engine blows up for good
18:04:25: <Salamander> in seconds i meant
18:04:29: <captain_getz> oh I just realized that there are no SPanish drivers in this series
18:04:30: <Nuppiz> that is unless he crashes into Ramone or something...
18:04:41: <Salamander> yeah...
18:04:49: <captain_getz> so there is no SPanish drivers to not qualify in their own race
18:05:28: <Nuppiz> and there's Ramone
18:05:51: <Rated> But there is a Liechtensteinische car heavily sponsored by Repsol ! :D
18:06:03: <Pasta> captain_getz there's hardly any Spanish drivers in the PMMF
18:06:24: <Pasta> You've got the McAllisters, Marcia, Torrente and that's it
18:06:51: <Nuppiz> Gaera is without a rear wing!
18:07:11: <RealRacingRoots> There's Marcos Marcia racing for me... and i'm not sure who else
18:07:48: <Salamander> who else is racing for you?
18:07:54: <Salamander> is that what youre not sure about?
18:08:00: <Nuppiz> oh, so that's how it happened
18:08:05: <RealRacingRoots> No, not sure who else is spanish
18:08:08: <Salamander> because pasta just gave a list of spanish drivers... :p
18:08:21: <RealRacingRoots> ah kay
18:08:23: <RealRacingRoots> didn't read up
18:08:28: <Nuppiz> Mazzacane and Gaera slip on probably some of the oil left behind by Ramone
18:08:31: <Salamander> fair enough
18:08:33: <RealRacingRoots> i'm working on the RTS IFRC livery
18:08:48: <Nuppiz> Mazzacane escapes without any damage but Gaera's rear wing is taken off by Jericho
18:09:07: <captain_getz> any teams dropping out of IFRC for the next season?
18:09:34: <Nuppiz> well, let's see how the current season turns out, hmm? :P
18:09:57: <RealRacingRoots> also the waiting list for that series is as long as any other series
18:10:14: <captain_getz> oh right, it hasent started yet
18:10:24: <Pasta> Kudos to captain_getz , the last person this eager to break into the PMMF was me!
18:11:03: <Nuppiz> Jericho drops to 15th and second last after replacing his front wing
18:11:21: <captain_getz> also, I noticed at the Brazil GP that the crash to push Ramone off the road was similar to how Fukuda died. I take it there wont be any pace car ramming for IFRC?
18:11:30: <RealRacingRoots> does anyone know if Marcia has any personal sponsors?
18:11:55: <Salamander> just stick a couple small repsol logos
18:12:00: <RealRacingRoots> kk
18:12:09: <Nuppiz> oh tere'll be ramming in the case of a car stranded dangerously on the road
18:12:13: <Nuppiz> there'll
18:12:25: <captain_getz> even if it killed someone last season???
18:12:28: <RealRacingRoots> the datsun will be needed?
18:12:36: <Nuppiz> IFRC has a Volvo
18:12:50: <Rated> a yellow one obviously
18:12:51: <Nuppiz> what happened to Fukuda last season was a racing incident
18:12:51: <Salamander> well it wont injure anyone
18:13:03: <Salamander> that would be totally unfair
18:13:25: <Nuppiz> and if I deliberately crash into someone I'll just ignore the possibility of an injury
18:13:54: <RealRacingRoots> Also LFS's Ai
18:14:06: <Nuppiz> because like Salamander said it would be unfair if someone was injured because of me
18:16:16: <Nuppiz> Braggia in the wall!
18:16:20: <Nuppiz> looks like a heavy shunt
18:16:51: <Salamander> oh dear
18:16:52: <Pasta> Ah no, that's all i need!
18:17:09: <Pasta> Been a shitty day in real life and now in virtual life too
18:17:19: <Pasta> If Kickert wins it'll be some comfort
18:17:24: <Nuppiz> no injury
18:17:44: <Nuppiz> the new damage file just makes the crashes look more serious than they really are
18:19:31: <Nuppiz> Bell is now 7th
18:19:53: <Nuppiz> but is overtaken by Donnelly!
18:20:05: <captain_getz> least im soring points at Kl-racer's DTM series
18:21:55: <Rated> GRA
18:22:13: <Salamander> bout time you fat bastard
18:22:26: <Salamander> now get on with it and get me a point already!
18:23:11: <Nuppiz> Jong-Sung overtakes Richardson for 10th
18:23:54: <Nuppiz> Stalic out!
18:24:12: <captain_getz> what position was he?
18:24:16: <Salamander> thats what you get for taking apostolos out
18:24:26: <Nuppiz> third last
18:24:32: <Pasta> WHO TOOK APOSTOLOS OUT
18:24:36: <Nuppiz> 13th, to be exact
18:24:41: <Salamander> stalic
18:24:56: <Salamander> he crashing into him avoiding sunset, who stalled
18:25:05: <Salamander> taking out apostolos' rear wing
18:25:10: <Pasta> Oh, Nuppiz, I read your plans for an overhaul of the PMMF. I'd say there good
18:25:21: <Salamander> yeah i agree
18:26:13: <RealRacingRoots> wizzie showed his approval last night
18:26:21: <Nuppiz> half of the field has now retired
18:26:32: <captain_getz> I havent seen the plan. where is the proposal?
18:26:44: <Salamander> hwnsnbm forum
18:26:59: <Salamander> http://www.f1rejects.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=6015
18:27:01: <Salamander> there
18:27:09: <Nuppiz> Roberts spins...and stalls!
18:27:19: <Nuppiz> Donnelly in points!
18:27:26: <Salamander> YES
18:29:25: <Nuppiz> Bell is struggling to keep Mazzacane behind him
18:29:54: <Rated> D:
18:31:17: <Nuppiz> and another Chinese car is out
18:31:25: <Nuppiz> Jong-Sung's engine blows up
18:31:56: <Nuppiz> some of the mechanics will probably find themselves in some very remote location soon
18:31:57: <captain_getz> what about the other communist team, Karimov?
18:32:05: <Nuppiz> last
18:32:20: <captain_getz> and what position is that? 15th?
18:32:21: <Nuppiz> 12th, once he overtakes Jong-Sung
18:33:17: <Nuppiz> Gomes is smoking too!
18:33:33: <Salamander> noooo :(
18:33:41: <captain_getz> hmm, should I pay 2000 to add one more start point and be broke?
18:33:49: <captain_getz> I dont know how much repairs costs
18:33:58: <Rated> 0
18:34:01: <Salamander> they dont cost anything
18:34:23: <captain_getz> guess the managers know how bad these cars are
18:34:54: <Nuppiz> and Gomes retires
18:35:00: <captain_getz> though are we just gonna keep using Lfe F1 or are we gonna switch to another reject car at some point?
18:35:21: <Salamander> where was she running?
18:35:32: <Rated> Nuppiz talked about switching to the Andrea Moda at some point
18:35:36: <Nuppiz> 11th
18:35:44: <Nuppiz> Andrea Moda project is scrapped
18:35:45: <captain_getz> I thought Andrea was a decent car
18:35:59: <captain_getz> I was gonna suggest Lamborghini or mondmetal
18:36:05: <Nuppiz> Graham retires!
18:36:15: <captain_getz> Fondmetal
18:36:18: <RealRacingRoots> We were thinking Pacific, then the Mastercard lola
18:36:18: <Rated> A coloni ?
18:37:21: <captain_getz> I vote for Lambo or mastercard
18:37:26: <RealRacingRoots> then it can transition nicely into the prost series
18:37:41: <Nuppiz> Bell in points
18:37:56: <captain_getz> but prost was a decent series....
18:37:57: <Rated> hehehe
18:38:10: <RealRacingRoots> your point is..?
18:38:31: <captain_getz> I thought we needed something so bad that most of its attempts to start ended with DNQs
18:38:38: <Nuppiz> van Dycke retires!
18:38:39: <captain_getz> give those cars a chance to race
18:38:42: <Salamander> YES
18:38:50: <Salamander> kickert leads then
18:39:17: <captain_getz> went from sinning behind Sunset to leading. Just another day for Life GP?
18:39:26: <captain_getz> *spinning
18:39:36: <Nuppiz> gearbox
18:39:44: <Salamander> i dont think kickert spun...
18:39:53: <captain_getz> I meant for the last 2 races
18:40:24: <Salamander> yeah, well, kickerts one of the top drivers
18:41:43: <captain_getz> though what comes after Prost? Midland? HRT?
18:42:34: <RealRacingRoots> is the mclaren MP4-18 in any game
18:42:36: <Nuppiz> nine cars remaining
18:42:47: <RealRacingRoots> how many laps left?
18:43:01: <Nuppiz> 19
18:43:01: <Salamander> whos left?
18:43:45: <Nuppiz> Kickert, Howard, Anker, Donnelly, Bell, Mazzacane, Richardson, Jericho
18:43:52: <Nuppiz> Karimov is just grinding to a halt
18:44:08: <captain_getz> least I can keep my rivalry with Kari going
18:44:10: <Nuppiz> he was 10th hadn't even overtaken van Dycke yet
18:44:30: <Nuppiz> engine
18:47:14: <Nuppiz> two more retirements and everyone is guaranteed points
18:48:03: <captain_getz> so will there be a vote for what car will succedd the Life car?
18:48:14: <Nuppiz> maybe
18:48:29: <captain_getz> I cast for Lambo, then Mastercard
18:48:51: <Rated> Well, we can't switch to the Lola until 1998
18:48:57: <Rated> So there's time
18:49:05: <Salamander> i think we should stick with the life until 1997
18:49:07: <RealRacingRoots> We'll see what nuppiz has in store
18:49:11: <Salamander> and switch to lola then
18:49:14: <captain_getz> till then, I go for Lambo or fondmetal
18:49:15: <RealRacingRoots> this is his series afterall
18:49:31: <Nuppiz> we could go for the 1992 Brabham next year
18:49:41: <Nuppiz> or wait until 1995 and use Pacific PR01
18:49:56: <captain_getz> or just have an early 90s pool of cars, since that seems to be the largest number of reject cars are at
18:50:18: <Nuppiz> there's one limitation though, and that is how easy the livery templates are
18:51:10: <Nuppiz> the Fondmetal is unfortunately quite awful in that sense, the Life template is often considered horrible but looks really easy compared to that
18:51:25: <captain_getz> hmm, how bout Lambo?
18:51:59: <Rated> The sidepods part would be a PAIN
18:52:00: <Salamander> dont think thats really reject enough imo
18:52:07: <Rated> And this ^
18:52:15: <RealRacingRoots> We'll give the new cartime
18:52:25: <RealRacingRoots> it's at least 1 season away
18:52:37: <captain_getz> 32 races, 27 DNQs. sounds quite rejectful to me
18:52:47: <Salamander> it also got some starts
18:52:57: <Salamander> finished races
18:53:06: <Salamander> yeah its rejectful
18:53:32: <Rated> Almost scored points
18:53:56: <captain_getz> oh yeah
18:54:33: <Salamander> but its a massive step up on the life
18:54:33: <Salamander> yeah
18:54:46: <captain_getz> and andrea was more of a management failure than a technical one
18:55:11: <Nuppiz> Howard crashes out from the race!
18:55:29: <Rated> Let me guess : brakes
18:55:32: <Nuppiz> Donnelly on podium
18:55:32: <Salamander> is that donnelly on the podium
18:55:44: <Salamander> :D
18:55:55: <captain_getz> least if we do Mastercard I can make a Visa themed ca
18:55:57: <captain_getz> *car
18:56:08: <RealRacingRoots> Or a Maestro themed car
18:56:21: <Nuppiz> American Express?
18:56:29: <captain_getz> or if I go local with a credit union
18:56:55: <RealRacingRoots> Although if there were teams with backing from banks, it would need to come from tax haven nations
18:57:11: <Nuppiz> Bank of Cyprus
18:57:14: <captain_getz> then after mastercard we need something after that
18:57:15: <RealRacingRoots> bingo
18:57:24: <RealRacingRoots> Nuppiz nailed what i was thinking
18:57:29: <captain_getz> since I think Prost was a bt too successful
18:57:30: <Rated> haha
18:58:15: <captain_getz> maybe that mclaren car from 2003 that never raced?
18:58:24: <RealRacingRoots> that's what i said
18:58:24: <RealRacingRoots> MP4-18
18:58:27: <Nuppiz> Mazzacane out!
18:58:38: <Rated> Aw no...
18:58:39: <Nuppiz> brake-related crash
18:58:46: <Nuppiz> not severe
18:59:07: <Nuppiz> so close, yet so far
18:59:26: <Nuppiz> six cars remaining, you know what that means
18:59:37: <Rated> So now everyone actually racing is guaranteed points yep
18:59:44: <Rated> MEANS POINTS FOR BELL !
18:59:52: <Nuppiz> Bell is 4th
19:00:15: <Salamander> how many laps left?
19:00:18: <Nuppiz> both EuroBrum's will socre a point
19:00:23: <Nuppiz> score
19:00:27: <captain_getz> guess the horrid orange and white splatter on the front wing paid off
19:00:39: <Nuppiz> 14 laps to go
19:00:41: <Rated> It's beautiful ! :(
19:00:46: <RealRacingRoots> only 14 to go
19:01:02: <captain_getz> is my car still the most horrid in design?
19:01:40: <Nuppiz> I think it is
19:01:59: <captain_getz> guess the smiley face on the side didnt help
19:02:17: <RealRacingRoots> what file format doyou want IFRC liveries Nuppiz?
19:02:23: <Nuppiz> PNG
19:02:30: <RealRacingRoots> kk
19:02:55: <Nuppiz> I'll cheat F1C by renaming the file extension to bmp
19:03:13: <Nuppiz> saves a lot of memory
19:03:48: <RealRacingRoots> hehe
19:04:02: <Cynon> :O
19:05:00: <Nuppiz> last
19:05:20: <RealRacingRoots> Nuppiz http://www.mediafire.com/view/?7exderhhpcb42hq
19:05:23: <Salamander> i dont really ind
19:05:23: <Salamander> mind
19:05:25: <RealRacingRoots> Nuppiz http://www.mediafire.com/view/?6lk9h0b3ct8qpuv
19:05:26: <Salamander> give marcia whatever you want
19:05:34: <RealRacingRoots> don't say that salamander
19:05:56: <Salamander> why
19:05:58: <captain_getz> why does everyone keep using Repsol as a sponsor???
19:06:00: <Cynon> How many cars have caught on fire?
19:06:02: <Cynon> Not enough?
19:06:03: <Nuppiz> hello Cynon, you're just in time for the las 11 laps of the 1992 Life Grand Prix of Spain
19:06:08: <Cynon> Repsol = Orange car
19:06:11: <Cynon> Orange cars = sexy.
19:06:21: <Cynon> :D
19:06:23: <RealRacingRoots> need to ask what helmet designs are wanted for dorval and marcia
19:06:32: <Salamander> because marcia is spanish
19:06:33: <captain_getz> Midland or Spyker work just as well
19:06:36: <Nuppiz> there's been about five engine retirements
19:06:38: <Rated> Arrows A20 = Beautiful car imo.
19:06:47: <Salamander> and i couldnt think of any other spanish companies off the top of my head
19:06:56: <captain_getz> hence why my Austin Metro 6r4 is painted as such
19:07:15: <captain_getz> though my main sponsor was Fostex, not Orange
19:07:23: <Nuppiz> 10 lpas
19:07:25: <Nuppiz> laps
19:07:31: <captain_getz> since anything that ends in -ex seems to be rejectful
19:07:33: <Rated> More like the A21 then
19:07:55: <captain_getz> yeah
19:08:06: <Nuppiz> and Jericho joins the first corner parking lot
19:08:14: <Nuppiz> there's four cars now
19:08:53: <Rated> 4 ? I guess I missed a retirement then
19:09:05: <RealRacingRoots> Does Repsol sponsor the Andreas Laporta Omecha Cy?
19:09:27: <Nuppiz> Arthurs, Stalic, Mazzacane and now Jericho
19:09:35: <Nuppiz> all in the first corner gravel trap
19:11:03: <captain_getz> so this series is going from once every 2 weeks to once a week now?
19:11:25: <Nuppiz> eight laps to go
19:11:36: <Nuppiz> well, most of last season was one race per week
19:12:24: <Nuppiz> then there was the NC Brazilian GP with all those new entries and the between-season break
19:13:03: <captain_getz> you had two races in Brazil in less than 3 races??
19:13:12: <Nuppiz> yep
19:13:29: <Nuppiz> 1991 ended there and the second race of 1992 was there
19:13:40: <captain_getz> going by the last race of last season, that shouldve just been the 1992 preview race
19:13:54: <Nuppiz> it pretty much was
19:14:40: <captain_getz> though now I can work on my new, less eyesore of a,livery sooner, since I dont need to wait or next season as Zeroforce demonstrated
19:18:55: <Nuppiz> five laps
19:20:17: <Nuppiz> three
19:21:48: <Nuppiz> two
19:23:11: <Nuppiz> kickert laps Anker, the last driver who was on the same lap as him
19:23:35: <captain_getz> so Eurobrum is leading?
19:23:37: <Nuppiz> last lap
19:23:45: <captain_getz> or Kickert sorry
19:23:53: <Nuppiz> Pieter Kickert in the Foster's leads
19:24:07: <Nuppiz> Willian Anker of EuroBrum is second
19:24:16: <Nuppiz> Geoff Donnelly of Al Smith is third
19:24:20: <captain_getz> so only one car on the lead lap....
19:24:27: <Salamander> yayyy :D
19:24:32: <Nuppiz> Algernon Bell of Zeroforce is fourth
19:24:44: <Nuppiz> and Richard Richardson of EuroBrum is fifth
19:25:03: <captain_getz> oh one more thing: what game do you use to simulate these races Nuppiz?
19:25:13: <Nuppiz> KICKERT IS SMOKING!
19:25:15: <Nuppiz> ON THE LAST LAP
19:25:19: <Salamander> :D
19:25:24: <Salamander> oh man
19:25:33: <captain_getz> come on, roll across the line, roll across the line....
19:25:38: <Nuppiz> will he make it to the finish?
19:25:58: <Salamander> happened to him in the brazil nc race as well i think
19:26:12: <Nuppiz> yeah he ran out of fuel two corners from the finish line
19:26:46: <Nuppiz> last corner, last acceleration...
19:26:57: <Nuppiz> and it holds!
19:27:24: <Salamander> meh 3rd was good enough anyway
19:27:31: <captain_getz> does he pull over at the first corner parking lot to celebrate? :D
19:27:50: <Nuppiz> and it fails now
19:27:53: <RealRacingRoots> last lap drama, the best in this series
19:28:01: <Nuppiz> after the first sector of his cooldown lap
19:28:55: <Rated> Weee points !
19:31:17: <Nuppiz> Kickert, Anker, Donnelly, Bell, Richardson, Jericho
19:31:23: <Nuppiz> there's the top 6 for today
19:32:15: <AndreaModa> evening all
19:34:09: <RealRacingRoots> yo
19:36:47: <Nuppiz> ROTR: stewards for not cleaning up Turn 1
19:37:48: <RealRacingRoots> Didn't feel like sending out the safety datsun?
19:38:28: <Nuppiz> Fastest lap: Dave Wilson, 1:25.092
19:38:34: <Nuppiz> nope
19:38:46: <Nuppiz> there really wasn't any reject moments TBH
