ACM · Post by **ACM** » Sun Oct 23, 2011 7:09 am

I just did my run.

Ugh... I got into too many crashes. I don't think I'll fair well this round.

Post by **Buka** » Sun Oct 23, 2011 7:20 am

So, the first round has been started. Good luck, guys!

Here I'll post all the drivers who will race and theirs login times.

ACM : 24.39 First ToM race! I hope it wasn't that bad as you think.
Nolb : 30.06 Also a rookie in ToM. Have a nice time during the season.
Buka : 26.38 Will 10th place stay unattainable dream?
AleksiNir : 35.18 No warning this time. Seems to be a weird bug of ToM site.
Areen : () No files

Mszostus : 31.38 ToM's rookie but very experienced (and successful!) racer outside of it! Good luck, mate.
resir014 : 29.22 Welcome back into racing.
zgr : 32.53 Good luck in Rookies standings.
hangman : 27.56 First race since May!
APEX : 30.08 And this guy have the first race since January!

Alonso : 26.08 The discovery of the latest GRC season. Can beat many of old wolves.
kuba : 32.28 The most successful Polish driver. Well, after Soltys... But still... Great to see you back on track!
TuomoH : 29.19 Great you liked it! We'll do our best to keep the mark of ToM.

bgcatfan : 32.28 Another comebacker. 2 and half year witout racing. We'll see how you'll do it.

XYY : 28.29 Probably one of the best German racers nowadays. Good luck in ToM.
FogoRJ : ~35.00 (files received by mail) This guy always fight only for highest places. ToM shouldn't be an exception.
Scaramanga : 22.26 Together with his fellow countryman Alonso he's one who can surprise an old guard.
Lukeno94 : 42.04

First warning. No penalty.
Maclape : ~36.00 (files received by mail) Good luck, it is expected that you'll fight only for highest places.
majortom : 26.11 The only GR wizard in ToM at the moment.
Longbow : () No files

Maybe next combinations will be better for you.
Reh : 30:22 Good luck in fighting for Rookies title.
Mizzamar : 30:19 150th event, isn't it?
VNL : 29:38 My fellow countryneighbor.

Good luck, friend!
Rich K : 30:11 First race since February.

Akouk : 29.35 Another comeback. But almost 3 months without racing shouldn't reduce racing skills.
Dany : () No files

Lets hope for better luck the next time.
Cristiano Bohessef : 25.24 Not that much Brazilians we have nowadays in GR, and I'm happy CB takes part in the compo.
Mr.J: 25.27 Thanks for participating. I hope it means ToM is OK championship.

Don't worry ACM, I think my race was not better than yours. And next time I'll download, the track pack BEFORE starting, perhaps I'll have more time for practice then.

Did you check your email?

AleksiNir wrote:Did you check your email?

Yes. I have your files.

About the delay... ToM system shows the time when the user has seen track and car on the screen and, in case of delay, the time when the user tried to upload his results. In your case it was 18-seconds delay. I'll ask GeorgM to check this system, but I don't think there was a mistake.

When I tried to upload the files, the site said I had logged out while I was driving. (this has happened to me before too) After that I wrote the e-mail to you, which was sent at 17.05. (date of creation in my files is 17.00) While uploading the files to the e-mail, I logged in again at ToM site and then it said I have spent too much time and the system won't accept my files. I think this moment is what your systems are showing as my uploading time, and not when I first tried to upload them couple of minutes earlier and was told I had logged out

Why not downoload track?

you can find all needed track in http://tom.gene-rally.com/mainresults.php
Download pack for proper month and after login you will know which track to use.

Post by **Buka** » Sun Oct 23, 2011 9:49 pm

@AleksiNir Well, looks like it's a bug. GeorgM was warned about it. As we have no reasons not to trust you I think we'll just forget that 18 seconds.

@Mszostus Sorry about that as it wasn't clear in the rules.

Now I've added the new sentence into my first post.

Warning! ToM's login system isn't the usual one. You need to download a pack of a current event from here (i.e. During the first round - it's January 2009, during the second - June 2009 and so on).

Welcome, Rich! Tell me if you don't have password.

And now we're 40 in the entry list! And I hope it will be bigger.

Great to have this compo back, I had much fun and immediately remembered why I love ToM compo.

I also noticed how straining for the hands it is to drive 30 km after such a long break from races.

bgcatfan · Post by **bgcatfan** » Thu Oct 27, 2011 5:30 pm

That was hard. It's been so long since my last competition (Indy 500 a couple years ago?). I don't expect a high result. But it was fun

Post by **XYY** » Thu Oct 27, 2011 8:18 pm

Oh. My race was not really good. Had too many little mistakes in it

Sorry, I'm a bit late...

If you're fast enough to give me the opportunity to log this afternoon, maybe I can still race stage 1

Yes, we're fast enough. BTW, does your email has dot between bta and mplume?

And do you need a password?

Post by **Lukeno94** » Fri Oct 28, 2011 2:16 pm

That was, for a number of reasons, quite possibly the worst race in my career... if not in history. (see email)

Post by **LongBow** » Fri Oct 28, 2011 8:52 pm

After 1/3 of the race I gave up for two reasons:
1. I was having hard times with this car/track combination....not fun at all
2. my son was having some kind of nightmares, making him wake up and crying

I just didn't felt racing anymore....

I hope next time Ill have more luck

Reh · Post by **Reh** » Fri Oct 28, 2011 9:01 pm

Well...me and surprise competitions...

[quote="Reh in Vilkku's Surprise Competition"]I thought i'd be better. Am i really last?[...][/quote]

Wasn't too bad i think though.

[/quote]This happened to me many times during the past seasons, I only got better results when I stopped to expect them

Rich.K · Post by **Rich.K** » Sat Oct 29, 2011 1:36 am

Hmm, well that could of been better, I spent most my login figuring out why I kept starting from the back of the pack on this new version of GR, poor strategy but most of the laps I did we're tidy, good luck people
