First rounds deadline is coming tommorow! Don't forget.

Can I join to Storm Racing?

Yes you can .

Great. I want join to Storm Racing.

Just had my race done, and some cookie problems prevented me from downloading the trackfiles in time. This could be helped by switching browser, but this took me about 3-4 minutes.

About my race: awful hotlap, OK time trial and race.

My race is done as well. I was pretty slow in Mexico (obviously), but I hope for some decent position in Le Mans.

I still have this problem, occasionally, without a clue what causes it. I did a full practice run just now, and the problem did not occur during the race, but it did at the time-trial which I did right after.

I will make sure to save the replay right after crossing the finish line and before the results screen show up, so that in case the problem occurs during the login run, you can get to the results screen yourself by playing the replay. Would that be OK?

Races are going much better now. I get about 114.5 kph on my practice runs now. I'll do my login run soon

Edit: Did the login run. Race went quite well actually. Had trouble 1-lapping AIs though, otherwise my time could have been a bit better still. Time Trial went OK, hotlap went awful, almost half a second worse than my best practice time. I played in a lower resolution and in windowed mode, and had no skipping problems this time, so all screenshots are in the zip

Argh... those (beep) IAs, final laps were madness and much slower. On the other hand I improved my best lap in hot lap. Looking forward to see results.

Results! I'm excited!

I practiced the new racing track, Salzburg, today. It's fairly easy to run away from the AIs on this track, as well as 1-lapping them. Easier to fit the pit stops to make sure you get minimal delay from the AIs. Very curious how well I did in the first race.

Results are coming today . Yesterday I had to drive to the other side of the country and back, was too tired :/.

First rounds results are here .

See you in the Round 2 .
I'm glad with the attendance, good job guys .

Login for Rounds 2, 3 and 4 is still open.
You can also still join the competition.

Now I might bang my head against the wall, since I would have had in Mexico a 10:4x time. Damn cookie problems!

I am sort of surprised by other results though, after two years of absence my times are still competitive. ^^ Congrats to the winners!

I'm surprised how (relatively) well I did in the Time Trial and especially the Hotlap. I expected to be dead last in the Hotlap, since it went horrible. Could have finished in the podium if it went like most of my practice runs, apparently. I'm also interested by how close positions 2-4 were in the race. Without a doubt, the AIs play a role in this phenomenon

You did well lots of people were really close which is good. HL with 5 laps is challenging .
Kuba for example had a crash near pits after his second stop, so it is important to navigate through traffic.

@Herbal and Marcinho: I hope we will challenge Destiny Racing next round!

My first win since forever

BTW, there's a little mess with HL results.

Mess cleaned up, thanks Buka for the fair play .

Mine too, I last won race at Ivotni Park victory in NetBook Racers Cup S2 in March 2010 .
In June 2011 I won Mallinthon Rally of IRC though .

There is a chance that in round 2 pack, TT track became corrupt, since I've installed it, but GR didn't recognize the track.

Strange, the track worked for me, but I've reuploaded everything anew, try it again please .

This time everything was OK with the tracks. I'm a bit woeful since I've made slight mistakes in both TT and race, which might have even cost me the win.

My apologies for not participating in the second round. I've been very busy applying for jobs and meeting people and I completely forgot about it. I should finish the other rounds.

What 2 hours? I've sent you an e-mail right after my attempt, after like 1-2 minutes of trying to upload files via login site with no success (they could have arrived later indeed, I don't know what happened to your site - I had also problems with logging in, had to wait like 10 minutes before the website came back to life). Any chance of taking a look for this case?

This time I've felt that my results are going to be top. But I'm still shocked that with some more luck, I could have even made a hattrick!
Nonetheless this is my first win in an event, where I've won because of my actual performance, not because everyone else has been penalized. Just in time after 9 years of racing...

Congrats to everyone though!

Here come standings
