Generally Rookie Championship : Season 17 [Login][Race]

[zsoltbartok]

Oh, the results... Have you seen it, Madd Dogg?

So we can't be dissatisfied with the podium, can we? This race was my best so far, because I had no big mistakes, I was driving so focused like Luke Skywalker did in the Death Star's trench run.
But what happened to the Monkey Crew drivers?

[Mad Dan]

@Mizzamar: for my it was technical problem, but I don´t know what happened to Lorenzo

* Hi Buka, You could make the results available here on the Forum? I'm not able to open the site.

Ooh, I'll be looking forward to the next race

Congratulations to the top 3 finishers!

I knew that bad pit stop and trip to sunken tyres would cost me. Still 8th isn't so bad for my 2nd race. I always thought I was going to lag behind... badly.

[MD]

Ladies and Gentlemen! We saw the -history to be written! It was the first Team Miskolc 1-2

[ianfreddie07]

Coniston run submitted. Though I goofed up and forgot to save the screenie with skidmarks. :\

[Jonzu95]

Oh dear... Here comes the 10 sec penalty again...

[NecroPolo]

Congrats, folks! Mizza + Mad Dogg double dose c'grats not just because of double winning but this driving that you guys did

I was driving so focused like Luke Skywalker did in the Death Star's trench run.
But what happened to the Monkey Crew drivers? [/spoiler]

Imperial Pilot #QA4564126 who was vapourised by Wedge Antilles in the 12th Death Star cutscene that was finally left out of the movie because it was the too boring. That was me on this nice track. Icing on cake, for some reason I don't know my machine started to skip frames and my car stuck then re-appeared 2-3 cars away. It is tricky to take the chicane that way But it was just a temporary problem (real cars have mechanical problems, too - I'm okay with that), even my best lap was the sleepiest among the drivers.

About following races, Monkey Crew hopes the best for the rest

I hope so! Coniston is a nice place for a great match
(Or for a Triple Hungarian Dose, HAHA! )

[Buka]

Don't forget about deadline of round 5. Even if you can't race today - feel free to make your race before Thursday, 15:00 GMT.
ATM I have 8 results - from IanFreddie07, yuri, NecroPolo, Jonzu, Javiertxo, Xabaras, VNL and tooomek.

[zsoltbartok]

Login done. Good, but nothing extraordinary this time.
BTW I have just checked the Generally World Ranking site and it turned out that round 4 Japan was my 100th GWR event.
Good luck!

[MD]

This time I have to be proud for my race
...and be proud for that 100th grand prix. You did it! What is more: you won the race!

but the results ?

[ianfreddie07]

I'm with xabaras. I really want to know the results now

[Buka]

Ok, results are ready. Once again sorry about this delay. Don't worry, you'll have enough time for Apasta as deadline will be moved to Saturday midnight.

This event was very difficult for me, I again and again find that people don't read rules. In the second sentence of the Rules GRO rules are mentioned but I'm pretty sure that almost none of the racers read them. That's sad and that's probably because James C. (GRO and GRC manager) left the community long time ago. And of course I had to stress on some moments too.

So I decided to make some changes after this season:

1. All GRO rules which applies to GRC will be posted on GRC webpage.
2. I'll be more precise with penalties.
3. Time login will be changed to 10 min on short races. 11 minutes will be penalty.
4. GRC webpage will be moved to other hosting to prevent problems for racers from Brazil.
5. Deadlines will be moved to Saturday midnight and results will be published not later than Sunday midnight.

BTW, if you have any suggestions, feel free to tell.

But now back to the last race of our 17th season. Apasta, one of the most loved track for a few generations of drivers. Long (!) race. You need to change your settings.

Round 6 - Masters of Apasta

Deadline: 06.11.2010, 23:59 GMT

Login time for the Race : 15 minutes

* Tyre wear : 8%

Details here (or here).

BTW, welcome Mszostus. Your login will be ready in 5 minutes.

[Mad Dan]

I hope that I will finaly have the right settings . Not as I had in past few years.....

[yurijack]

3º in championship

congrat's madd dogg for your good race...

[zsoltbartok]

Believe it or not, this time I knew who the winner would be:

Of course my teammate Madd Dogg! Nobody could get close to him enough in this round. Wicked!

[Jonzu95]

Phew! That was close. I've had 4 times +10 Sec Penalty, and still never been last... But still not happy...

[NecroPolo]

C'grats 1-2-3 folks! Madd Dogg, that was some superb driving.

Lorenzo missed the last one, so there is some mini-championship to be started among 3 of Monkey Crew drivers

Apasta is not my fav track so my place depends on your mistakes folks

It is nice to have the deadline expanded a little. I'll try to login from an another macine that is much faster, perhaps it can solve the frame skipping problem.

[ianfreddie07]

Oh boy. I hope I break no rules for Apasta.

Aw, shoot. If not for that penalty I could've been in 6th.

[Jonzu95]

Buka! Wait for me! I'm gonna send my results on evening... Hopefully I'm not too late.

[zsoltbartok]

Deep silence in the thread, I guess everyone is practicing for Apasta 24/7...
I have just done the last login. I have probably reached my limits (in skills and patience). Good luck again!
