If u like u can answer the questions. First, how is ur holidays going? Have u guys been practicing Spain? What's the fastest qualifying lap have u guys done yet? Dry and wet? Since this game has a bigger chance to rain then last year have u guys been practicing rain races? What's ur opinion so far this season? Improving or lacking? Who has the most potential for the championship? Who has been surprising you? Who's the most consistent driver in the field? Are u guys looking forward to monaco after Spain? #Post#: 2587-------------------------------------------------- Re: Hollidays thread By: STRIKER Date: December 30, 2012, 5:12 am --------------------------------------------------------- Hi my hollidays been quiet so if i have nothing to do i'm playing. I have done some races at spain but still trying to find consistency. I think this track is good but needs a lot of focous becose some mistakes here can take you to the gravel or the bloody chincane can ruine your race! My fastest qualy time was 120.3 and i haven't done any practice on the wet. I think the championchip will be very close and i hope it will be! livolay had a very good start and it's important from now on be consistent but moss and camsttubs will be on the run, supanash still one run but not sure if he will be able to play all the races. Moss is the most consistent but will see what the weather can bring over! I don't like monaco but it's a cool track! Come to do some practing during the week if you can guys! Thanks! #Post#: 2588-------------------------------------------------- Re: Hollidays thread By: camstubbs86 Date: December 30, 2012, 5:24 am --------------------------------------------------------- Holidays have been awesome. 3 weeks off go back on the 14th n I can't complain Done zero practice havent even played the Sony other then black ops As for q times I'm not sure. Maybe 119 but I dunno So far I feel im a lot less competitive n consistent then last season I think the biggest surprise is striker he has come from out of the top 4(moss, livo, Nash, myself) from last season and cemented himself as a super fast racer. Well done. I've had to chance and change my strategy a few times around his pace so we dont clash The most consistent so far would have to be moss. I think he is a bit ahead of the rest I can't wait for Monaco just as much as moss can't. Battle royale maybe? #Post#: 2589-------------------------------------------------- Re: Hollidays thread By: Moss Date: December 30, 2012, 12:58 pm --------------------------------------------------------- First of all the holidays got abit boring doing the same thing everyday, but I can't complain. I did do some practice and my fastest so far is mid 19, I think a high 18 is possible but I'm happy with where I am, I've been working on my steering settings, trying to get the smoothest driving style possible, and that will help me be more consistent. I've been practicing rain as well doing 100% races because its been my weak point this season. I think everyone has been improving from the top 5, I just wish we could have a full competitive field, I know if woody wants to do good he would, there's no doubt he's got good driving style and speed, even gazza and macca. And if u guys need help with ur setup I'm more then happy to help. I would say the most competitive would be stricker and Stubbs, stricker is definitely much more competitive this season, very fast and with great driving style. And if u do one mistake Stubbs is right behind waiting for an opportunity to win. The most potential so far is livolay, he might not have the right speed yet, but he's not far behind, he's got the tactics and if he wants to be just as fast he's got no problem. Monaco is an awesome track, the thing about monaco is to win, u have to grab pole, drive as fast as u can all race to secure ur win with mistakes free and ill be good, god I can't wait. Lol #Post#: 2590-------------------------------------------------- Re: Hollidays thread By: drewdawg727 Date: December 30, 2012, 2:49 pm --------------------------------------------------------- Well, the holidays were nothing but stress for me unfortunately ... was changing shifts at work and Christmas especially I was on the move but somehow I managed to get everything done I need to. I did my first practice at Spain last night with Striker and after doing about 10 laps or so I was already at a 1:20.9 with help from his setup. A 1:18 as Moss alluded to would make him a machine and I just don't see where all that speed comes from. Did a quick race in the rain but I have absolutely no confidence, just waiting to hit the brakes and just completely lock up and go into the gravel. I don't think you can do enough practice in the rain races, because when the jitters come race time, any small mistake loses you tons of time. I definitely feel like I'm going backwards this year. With all the league races that I have been able to compete in, I am mostly DNF'ing and have no self-confidence and consistency like I felt I had in F1 2011. I think I'm worrying too much about setup when in reality I feel like this game you can have a variety of different setups for one race and still be fast. Striker's setup that he provided me with last night was so off the wall and after driving those 10 laps I was right on pace. Can't doubt Moss for the championship, I don't think he will have any competition IMO. Only reason there was competition with him last season was because he missed some races ... and most of the races he was involved in had lag problems that hindered him from taking the race away. My goal is to continue my streak of winning at least 1 race like I have done the past 2 seasons (Korea S1, Spa S2), but this time I want to win it fair and square with a hard fought battle, as the aforementioned 2 races I didn't feel like I earned by hard racing. I honestly have not seen much in the way of surprises. Everyone is performing to how I would predict them to. I am unsure of who the most consistent driver in the field, but I would have to shout out to Gazza as I have watched him come a long way since the days we played F1 2010 and he had zero pace and probably belonged more in a public lobby but now he is and can be a top 5 or top 3 racer given the right circumstances and the right track. I am very much looking forward to Monaco as I drove that race in RaceDepartment (100% race) and was running super fast pace until a BS crash with 10 laps to go. I will need a LOT of practice to get back into the swing of that race. Looking to practice some more with Striker tonight like I did last night and see if I can't shave some more time off my fast lap. Now that my shift has changed officially I plan to spend quite a bit more time playing the game and finding the best technique possible. #Post#: 2591-------------------------------------------------- Re: Hollidays thread By: Moss Date: December 31, 2012, 4:58 am --------------------------------------------------------- What do u mean by u don't feel like u earned them drew?
