This time I wasn't fastest, but I won.

So, no matter of duels results will I start 1st at inside row next to FRUKIScze for the Daytona 500?

@FRUKIS You can still drive (and I encourage you to do so). You can still score GWR points if you race in your Duel.

@kuba That is correct.

A little over 24 hours to go to submit your Duel race. Don't forget to switch to the night palette!

It's time to vent on my issue of my very late submit. I knew that this race was my climax and I had to show that I could make a great show by having my performance on par with Szmajili. HOWEVER, mid-game, my mother told me that I had to pick up my brother at school home and that she would chastise me if I don't do it / delay it because she knows my nature as a "potential" racer that I may cross as a "selfish" person who only strives for personal matters. Cannot be bothered being called that, I've sacrificed my 17 minutes and that I've lost focus on my race from the second pit stop to finish. This outcome would affect me and I would lost to Szmajili because he could have a better lining and speed and I kept crashing with AIs on my third stint.

What I'm trying to say to everyone is that I know this interruption is cringe worthy, but as a first child of three, I had to take care of my little brothers. Interruptions could come at very least expected times, just when you were on climax on your login session. Also, morning runs are when I can be on my climax, while my climax won't be maximum when I do it at midnight. I know that I had to duel against Szmajili but at the same time I cannot neglect my brothers as I know my mother always put faith to me in taking care of my brother.

Once again, I'm terribly sorry for this issue, especially to the organizer puttz and Szmajili (for maybe I won't serve an exciting battle of first outside lane position, especially starting the third stint of mine)

This was the worst race for me.

I crashed with the idiot AIs. I hate that agressivity, and that they feels like I'm a little PolskiFiat 126 and they are Huge Cargo Train.

I had to do 3 pit stops (I only wanted to do 2) and most of my lap times were 12.xx so I think I will be the last from the 2 Duel Races

But I cant wait the Final Race. I hope I'll have time to run it.

Finished.

It was my 600th event.

FRUKIScze · Post by **FRUKIScze** » Sat Feb 15, 2014 9:23 pm

Pretty decent race for me

My lap time get only once (thanks bot

) under 12.10s Can't wait for results, and good luck for everyone, who doesn't race yet

Results will be coming tomorrow as will the starting lineup for the 500, so just sit tight

Results and replays from the Budweiser Duels are posted, as are Daytona 500 logins and the full lineup. Good luck to everyone in the Daytona 500, it's going to be more than three times as long as any other race in this compo. Don't forget to change your palette back to the regular palette!

Did I finish second third time in a row? I won't be mad, if i finish second again in Daytona 500

Rendy · Post by **Rendy** » Tue Feb 18, 2014 12:44 am

Sad that I've still got the late submit penalty even though I specified the reason why, but either way, I'm starting at 3rd

Haruna · Post by **Haruna** » Tue Feb 18, 2014 3:31 am

I don't mind starting from the back. I do like my zero-to-hero stories, after all.

Szmajli · Post by **Szmajli** » Tue Feb 18, 2014 7:22 am

I tought that 3rd position means I need to select myself after 2 bots.

but now I know that I always need to select myself first

(what BOP means? )

BOP is an abbreviation of back of pack. In other words, your result is stripped and considered as last.

I am extending the deadline until Monday since I won't have a chance to do results until then.

Huh..

I just wanted to say that I had no time to complete, but I'm very happy with this.

Monday means Monday 23:59?

Rendy · Post by **Rendy** » Sun Feb 23, 2014 12:50 am

What a lackluster run. Impeded by an AI that, for some reason, was in a "Pit Limiter" speed all the time led to my lackluster run with bumps, shunts, and off-tracks. I think I'm out of the Top 4 for this... :headdesk

Yup, same time as usual, UTC.

Surprisingly my race wasn't that exhausting as I was afraid of, no crash, no IA with speed limit on track, according to strategy.

I'm very curious about the results. Puttz, will you make video with commentary?

I'd like to, but unfortunately I don't really have time to do a commentary video for something short, never mind an almost 40 minute race

A busy semester at university will do that to you.

Don't forget that if you haven't raced yet, there are still a few hours left for you to do so.

I'm at sister house, and I don't have my laptot with me, so i'm driving on sisters computer. Hope it won't be dissaster for me

Ok, it was dissaster. Her keyboard is just f***ing awfull. I am usually using A for accelerating, but A stucks all the time. So I changed it to S and everything works well, but then this button started to stuck too. And game was lagging absolutely horribly. (normally at my laptop 40-50fps) and at sisters computer it almost never gets over 24 (which is for me playable fps) I gave up after half race

Of course, i don't want to say, that it's fault of computer or keyboard. But...it's shame for me

I was expecting MUCH MORE for this event, and i am really dissapointed by me. I'm sad now
