One of the nicest tracks where the insects are larger than the RVs... Time to enjoy this roller coaster!
I should be back for this one. I was having a mismatch problem and kept getting booted from RAtlanta. Issue resolved now..
I can't find the server. Any help would be great. In the mean time I will run a few laps offline until I can join the server. Hope to see you guys soon...;)
Not that I'm aware of...
I just tried to log on, but I can't seem to find any server, let alone the apexspeed one...
Not sure if it's my connection (probably weak wireless signal, and I don't feel like running the cable for 5 seconds of testing), or the matchmaker is down :S
I tried all night to find the server with no luck. Am I doing something wrong?
I just got online fine now...
Set a few recon laps... a bit off the pace though.
I don't see much passing this race :S and those tires don't look too friendly.
Let me know if you still can't get on later, I'll try and see if I can connect...
I probably won't run any more laps though... by that point, I will probably have consumed too many of Dave's pre-race beverages to be any good...:beer:
hey flyer, i just connected with redirect me. the fact that it is telling you no games found is puzzling.. keith??
I"m online now
maybe you're anti-virus/firewall is blocking rFactor from connecting?
can you see any online races at all anywhere in the matchmaker?
Finally made it in
LOL, welcome to the league.
Did somebody remember to tell you, all new members start a lap down ? :D
Okay looks like if Im online with anyone else after about 2-3 laps I loose connection, if Im solo I can run indefinatly...
kc - have you tried running a speed test on your INTERNET hookup? you can do so at:
http://www.speakeasy.net/speedtest i just picked Chicago and got 23.52 Mbps download and 3.66 upload. i am not a puter geek so i don't understand all of the how's and whys - but it would make sense if you do not have a good speed you will get bounced from the game. also, "i think" you will cause warping for others while you are in the game. i had a dial up connection that was reallllllllly bad back in the GPL days and they would ask me to leave cause i was crashing it for others. or, they just were afraid of my superior skills. :o
speaking of superior skills, john what the &^%$ are you doing man! you are FAST becoming a bugger. (speaking of which - hey bugger brothers - john just said (with his times) that he will kick your butts, are you going to just NOT show up??? :D ) anywho - good times, i got nothing for you, will keep trying though. :rolleyes:
also, you had asked in another post about pit stops. you have to make a pit stop, but nothing ever said you had to take tires or fuel. also, don't do it on the last lap. that is a no no..
will now go test some with my secret weapon (Columbian Coffee) :thumbsup:
if you try to run the speed test and it takes forever or won't let you that is telling you that you have a very bad hookup...
if you knew all of this - sorry for running on ;)
I'm at 20 down and 5 up. The server is fine if nobody else has issues.
20+ down and 5up for me, thinking its just the wifi on the laptop flaking out on me, will try a hardline for the next race and see if I can stay connected, used to play MMOs and online games constantly so know the internet side is good, just not sure about the wifi
How many laps for this event Keith?
I was just about to ask that...
Need to set my race strategy by noon... I work until 9 again and it will be a rush to get home to qualify
Thanks Keith...
See you guys tonight.
Thanks Keith
Good luck guys! I'll be at the gym, I have a F5 I need to fit into by May. :P
it's more fun when you are there :(
colin, calib, cam???? :confused:
I'm going to try to be there tonight, I have not turned a single lap in a month though, and won't be on till right before the race if I make it.
Nice racing guys! I had some serious issues, engine smoking, keiths wing hit me in the head, warping and bumping jer! then spinning out, then magically I had damage! This mod is very strange!! Good job though I had fun while it lasted.
Sorry to Keith if I took you out of the race... Haven't seen the replay yet, but I thought from the mirrors I was clear, and was too busy looking in them that I carried too much speed into the chicane, rear started to let go and I had to drift out...
If that's the case, feel free to dish out a penalty.
All I saw was smoke and a wing flying at my head!
I'm surprised Jer could even see after my mosquito killer was spewing pretty good!
Naw, the insects around that track are quite large...
Would need a lot more smoke to wipe them out. :beer:
Nah, it was a fine pass. I didn't back off and ended up taking my left front corner off on that stack of tires outside the double drop corner.
Okay..
Thanks, I can feel good about the win now...
This track is just impossible to pass on cleanly...
I'll admit it's fun to drive, but nerve wracking in a race. Just can't pass and I spent most of the first few laps waiting for someone to divebomb into a corner...
