Mine wasn't even tuned for silverstone lol but I win I win :D

YOU ARE THE STIG!!! :angry:

Stupidly fast.....dont know how you can set it up so quick :shocked:

What was your fastest time? I broke the 2:09 with my new setup and think i may get low 2:09 with a good run! You seemed to be RAPID though :wow:

Just to add to it, he started from the back....:drive:
 
To the front in 1 lap I think ;) I'm like senna mutha****aaaa! Haha

It was 2:09:05 I think

I would share my tune but forza tune files have been corrupt since I bought it so I can't save them.
 
Matt was seriously fast.

What will the next track be? Might be useful for someone to know to get tuning for next week :) I'm thinking of 10 laps around Suzuka :D or 15 laps around Tscuba :nice:
 
I think a target time of about 30 minutes is good, I like the sound of Suzuka. :D
 
Was a great race the other night guy!:dance::D

I messed qualfiying up by not removing the 30sec limit at the end :angry2: Ill make sure i get that right next time! :nice:

I had a a bad start to the race (pushing to hard on cold tyres:(() & ended up back in 5th, was good batteling to get back up the feild though & finished 2nd.
Couldnt catch vittel though (matt:drive:)

I think around a half hour race is a good & gives plenty of time for batteling, to short a race & you would never get chance to make any overtakes!:naughty:

I was going to make luguna seca the next race but that can wait till the next one if you guys fancy Suzuka!:D

Can we change the day from sunday though this week (i cant do sunday:mad:) i have the the house to myself thurs & sat night if there any good for everyone else?????
 
Prob thursday better for me.....Might be DJ'n saturday so cant do much saturday night :meet:
 
Yeah Thursday over saturday for me too as saturday nights are usually pretty busy!

Deffo up for Suzuka! Will make sure I have no friends with me this time, Distracting as Fook on the silverstone race lol !!!!
 
Sounds like thurs is the night then!:drive:

TBH I don't know why I said Sunday nights to start with (it's the one night a week we don't have the little one, to say the mrs was not happy is an understatement:D) just this Sunday we are out at a friends party!

Suzuka it is then, best start learning the circuit & tuning my car for it!:naughty:
 
Round two of the EK9.org forza challenge cup-

Thursday 8:30pm GTM on Suzuka.

5 lap qualifying (3 hot laps) & 15 lap race :drive:
 
So er, did anyone actually write down the results from the last race? Are we doing points and stuff?
 
Are we documenting the result from sunday? And are we applying a point system at all like a championship standings thing??? I would like to suggest a points system the same as F1 rewarding upto 10 people.....

1st : 25 points
2nd : 18 points
3rd : 15 points
4th : 12 points
5th : 10 points
6th : 8 points
7th : 6 points
8th : 4 points
9th : 2 points
10th : 1 point

After finishing 4th which ended up being last place..... can i suggest a point reward for all cars that finish the full race to encourage people to race and reward those who keep going?? An extra point or something or even a minus point for DNF's? And if you do not finish the full race you get nothing, so 5th place could have quite 2 laps in and receive 10 points etc.... its not fair :nice: Maybe the fact they dont get points may be enough of a deterrent and keep them racing?

Also i think it may be best to have a NEW OFFICIAL EK9.ORG FORZA CHAMPIONSHIP topic to have the championship standings in the 1st post along with previous race results as a record, which will be updated each week so the standings are right on the 1st page and dont get lost in the replys?

AND

A new topic for each race (EK9_CUP-Suzuka-01_12_11-8:30PM) as it stands its "FORZA 4 EK9.org challenge cup race nights??????" so there might be a few people out there that dont know the races are happening :nice: Just a thought to appeal to a wider audience :dance:

Just bored at work putting it out there :naughty:

Silverstone
1st - Mattharvey12 (+25 points)
2nd -JIMBOB-EK9 (+18 points)
3rd - FormulaRon (+15 points)
4th - Keithiesbig1 (+12 points)
5th - DNF
6th - DNF
7th - DNF

I would be happy starting this in a few races time after we have got to grips with it all.....but its only fair to reward the people who have raced already and raced a good race thats all :) go with whatever :naughty:
 
AND...if we doing a points based system, should we not fix it to a day & time so its fair on everyone? Just in case someone cant make another day and end up missing it?

So that way its fixed and if you cant make it its no ones fault??

Really need to stop thinking about this and find work to do.... :run:
 
Or what about sorting out a season with so many races and sort out with weekly dates and time so the season is fixed? Like the F1??

I am a bit of a perfectionist, can you tell :run:
 
Kieth, bang on mate, well up for all that! Set out all the dates and tracks ahead of time and put them up in a sticky, then update the championship points as we go. Good call on the DNFs too.

Although, being slightly biased, I reckon we should start the championship properly next week or something.... :D
 
Yeah i think we should use the one on sunday and this thursday as testers and try and perfect the setup. Getting a season sorted and started next week (Sunday 11th December) might be the key?? Looking at the callander, Sunday 25th December and sunday the 1st January might be a problem......

As per the pole, it should be set to Sunday and time to be confirmed.....

Here is a track list i have picked as posible tracks? Tried to find medium length tracks with no 10 min long ones and 1 min long ones....

Camino Viejo de Montserrat (Full Circuit)
Bernese Alps (Festival Circuit)
Hockenheimring (Full Circuit)
Infineon Raceway (Long Course)
Maple Valley Raceway (Full Circuit)
Mugello Autodromo Internazionale (Full Circuit)
Nurburgring Grand Prix Circuit (Full Circuit)
Road America (Full Circuit)
Road Atlanta (Full Circuit)
Sebring International Raceway (Full Circuit)
Silverstone Racing Circuit (Silverstone International Circuit)
Suzuka Circuit (Full Circuit)
Twin Ring Motegi (Full Circuit)
Circuit de Catalunya (Grand Prix Circuit)

Might be an idea to get an average track time for each and then set the laps to make the overall race to approx 25min?

Think we need to solve the following in order:

1. Fixed Date and time
2. Track's to be used in season
3. Track order
4. Track laps (according to lap times to add up to approx 25-30 minutes)
5. Callander dates (Excluding 25th December and 1st January i think)
6. Scoring System

:blinx:
 
Oh no not on Thursday! :( I can't go on xbox on weekdays :(

But if the majority is voting for Thursday, then I'll wait for next week's race then. I can sort out some tunes during this weekend...
 
Got to run with Jimbob earlier today (Sorry for leaving my GF called)
Seems I would fit nicely in the pack, still have some small adj. to make but overall I think my 9 can hold up. I think the main think that's gonna kill me is the time zone. I tried to get in on Sundays one but it wasn't happening.
