Race night Biatches!  (I think )

- Will Bretware figure out the brake from the clutch at turn one this season?
- Will we get destroyed by the AI again?
- Will Kalian recover from his OS re-install yesterday?
- Will the rookie who's put in more hot laps at Zandy than anyone shoot out of the gates?
- Will Heatsurge show?
- Will Kav man up () and race with his gas set to his brake pedal?
- Will Cawdor log an entry in the Zandy fuck up hall of shame like everyone else did last season?
- Will ChITty repeat last season's win at Zandvoort?
- Will Buz reproduce his epic crash from last season?

All those answers and more.... TONIGHT

Oh i'm planning something special this time around ... you will all be writing nice letters to the inventor of the roll hoop when i'm done. lol.

Holy crap about Kal's reinstall, i had no idea...crossing my fingers!

I have speekskating practice until around 8:45 so ill have to hurry back fast as possible but I can make it to watch at least.

Great race all - though obviously a sizable bummer for guys who ran out of gas.

Very nice to see Ez, you ran damned well for a 1st Timer @ Zandvoort.

Congrats to Bret, way to milk it to the end.

[Cawdor]

Congrats Bret, I felt like I had the car to win but I guess it just wasn't meant to be. 


Sorry for punting you EZ, but I'm pretty sure I can safely say you do not owe me one in return.

Sorry guys, I don't know what happened with my connection.  When I pressed "drive," my car went to the grid but it was empty.  It stayed there forever, until someone told me on vent you're already in the middle of the first lap...  I have no idea.  I recently changed to win7 64-bit, so I hope that's not a problem with the game.  I'll do some connecting to servers throughout the week to ensure this isn't going to happen anymore...

I didn't practice at all before anyway, so I would've been lower than 10 - if I finished at all, but I'll be more ready for the race next week I hope... and it's an oval from what I see.

I actually have a few questions about setting up, so I might jump on vent sometime before that.  I felt like I made all the changes that I felt were necessary to my car before the race, but my times were still horrible.  It might have also just been me driving terribly though...

Do any of you racing guys hang out on vent and when?  I might also talk to Buzinator on Steam if I see him.
