Uh...7pm in what time zone. It's 1:15pm where I am now.

I think I'll e-mail you now just to at least have a time in there.

Exactly what I was going to ask. I'll have to have a time in Friday.

Sorry, I forgot about that. 7pm my time. So that's 8pm eastern, 7pm central, 6pm mountain, and 5pm pacific.

And I got your email.
 
Someone, Perferably a Moderator should be taking the times that is NOT on a team...

It's just more fair don't you think?

No it's ok because if anyone dispustes a time that person will have to show a screen shot and since it saves all the rankings that shouldn't be a problem

I guess but someone could claim they have no camera to do that with...

and since there is 6 ppl on each team shouldn't first place be 12 points instead of 10?

Yes I think he was going off the original plan when it was 5 on 5.

I mean if the time is really unbelieveable they will need proof or get 0 points.

Yup, that's now it will be. That's why I want you guys to take pics if you can, but it's not required. And don't worry, I won't cheat. It's not like we're winning anything anyway. It's just for fun.


Yeah, I forgot we have 6 members per team now so 1st is 12 pts like you said.
 
I realize you guys are all underway, but here are some thoughts/suggestions for the next time you do it...

Over on Honda-Tech, they're doing a competition like this with the Integra Type R (all years, USDM and JDM spec). But what they're doing is running the laps in arcade mode, so you can't modify the car. And everyone posts screen shots, it shows the HP and weight (and tire choice) of the car so would be able to see if someone had modded something.

They aren't doing a "season" per say, they just picked a track and everybody's trying to post the best lap time, they're allowing you to run more than one lap so you can have a rolling start through the gates. There's a site that shows the top 10 or so lap times. Eventually they'll move on to another track, perhaps another car.

Please no Honda bashing, it's just some things you could implement to make sure everybody's being honest. :thumb:

I don't know, I'm pretty scandilous, I stole a pack of gum before because I didn't want to put it on lay away
 
Haha I wasn't trying to accuse anybody. :)

Just thought the arcade mode thing was a good idea.

Is it possible to load a ghostreplay online so people can download it and then race the winning lap time at the end of the week?

That way everyone can see what kind of line they used for when they raced :thumb:

can we get some time up here? It sucks not knowing where we are LOL


You really need to read the thread more...LOL

Because if someone from the other team knew what the other had he would play till he beat it. Its a mind game now, you get the best time you can get and then 'hope' its the fastest time. Makes you try harder on your own to now what your own limitations are.

This is also stressing the crap outta me.
I dont know if I can handle weeks and weeks of this!!


After the first week it'll be easier because we will know how good everyone else is and then we can whip our crappy team members into shape ROFL (which could mean me OMG )

I say we end the times tonite.
I need to know!!
I hardly slept at all last night.
I played for 3 hours LOL. I got in 60 laps I think. something stupid like that.

No way, I'm not getting all my practice done on sat and sun.
