I suggest we keep this event on the 23b server and we do it on sunday and start at the usual hour which is 20.30 for people who live in Europe. No idea what hour it is for the american racers but i thrust on it that they know that. That is 2:30pm est, 1:30pm cst, 11:30am pst for the US.

.....IMO it would have been a different matter if Senna had offered to give away his spot if someone wanted it, but simply backing out alltogether is not very nice.. especially since he should know how much effort goes into organizing something like this. A reaction from me before this get out off hand again. Sennaboy does that this this seriously !! And respects the work that has been put in this ROC. But not only does he has serious problems with what other racers are planning to do with him or will try to do to him ( can not say more about this, sorry), ..There is also a medical condition with his feet. Of course It would we wize to tell us at the first time why he backed up. so we could untherstand his condition from the first place. I have visited Sennaboy yesterday to talk about it and I can not blame him to not drive this sunday. If I would need to chose between my health and the ROC I also would have know what to chose !! . But of course this thing you did not know So I also can untherstand your and even my first reactions when I have read this. And Pe, we can always move this event to a later date. As soon we find one extra driver to fill Sennaboy in, or when Sennaboy is back in health, we can have the ROC. By the way an ROC is mostly driven after the season..so maybe it would be beter after season 2 to fill the gap to season 3???

Thnx for the explanation Sennaboy. I did not know about the health problems. Sorry for jumping to conclusions. As for the other problems... i think you are reading to much into this. Imo we are just here to race and to have fun. I have done this simracing thing for several years now and several of the people i have met have become friends. Never ever did i meet someone with bad intentions.
I'm not a big fan a rescheduling things Hans. I say we do it, just as planned.

Hello everybody,
if you asked me, I will be there tomorrow evening for the ROC! That is a very nice idea and the work should not be for nothing! Maybe we could do that again after the 2nd season to fill up the gap to season 3!
It´s sad not to see Sennaboy driving that nice and fun competition, but I hope he gets well very soon and we could battle in the championship again!
Please post soon your decision wether the race starts or not!
CU on track!
J

Ofcourse the race will will take place. We have a saying here in Belgium : "Van uitstel komt afstel" which means "Postponing leads to cancelation" and that is not an option . So i hope to see you all sunday evening for the ROC

Nice to hear Sennaboy. Server will be setup very shortly. I will post password here because spectators from BSR are always welcome. The password is "......." . (see links in forum for the password. Olso BSR memebers are allowed, and can access the password there. Other not membered racers can so not disturb this session. belsimracing.proboards45.com/index.cgi?board=passwords&action=display&thread=1201446872I will also mail every racer that signed up for the event as a reminder and to give password. See you all this evening

So who won tonight? It was very fun while it lasted for me. First race was very very close, and in the second I think I must have hit something on the jump causing me to loose control, which cost me a lot of time. When I crossed the finish line I looked at my watch and noticed it was just before 9 PM. At 9 PM they always show a movie in the lounge at the place where I live, so I figured I'd go watch it since it fit so nicely with the time. Otherwise I'd have stayed and watched the rest of the race!
But it was good fun! We should do this again some time! Thanks to Mumhra, Senna and Hans for organising this event!

I won Gnomie.. Jyuetsch took a very good 2nd. We had to do 3 rounds in final to decide on the winner. Xtian won the race for the bronze medal while Sennaboy finished just outside the podium. But... you left to soon man. We tried to stop you but you were allready offline. Because of the pc problems Yom endured we lacked one racer and that ment that the 3 losers had to raceoff eachother in order to see who was to race against Jyuetsch in the 1st round. Since you left there were only 2 losers left (Hanziboy and Scatter) and they raced a 1 heat event against eachother. Hanzi won and was allowed to race against Jyuetsch. There he lost but it could've been otherwise. If you had not left there was a chance you had to race Jyuetsch and if you had won that you could've gone further to maybe even win the final. You were a very good contender and i was sad to see you leave so quickly. I know i had fun. Not only racing but also watching the other races. Some were very close and the chat was very pleasant. I'm sure that these sort events will bring us closer together and that will mean more pleasant races. Because we all get to know eachother and get to become friends i expect we will respect eachother more on the track. This ROC is the perfect event to realize this imo. No matter who won it

d**n.. I'm sorry, I didn't think about that.. I just looked at the original race schedule and saw that the looser from my race wasn't supposed to race more, so I figured it wouldn't be an issue if I left. I apologize if this caused trouble. I agree on the "teambuilding" effect of this kind of fun event. Sort of like with the rally event of last season, too. We should do things like that from time to time! Congrats on the victory!

Indeed this is good stuff concerning teambuilding. And that's why we have 2 of those Rally races this season. Will be fun indeed !! If we don't know what to do we can also organise a "total distruction session" on the parking lot of Blackwood. I think this would also be a lot of fun ! Who can stay on his 4 wheels the longest ;D ;D. Of course the area of the parking lot would be redused because original it is to large. Yesterday I reconfigured the track for the race on 17 feb westhill with F08. I normaly hate this car.. But this really is a track made for this car !!! A lot of high speed corners !! Just love it now. But first concentrate on the new car.. Have not drove the minimum of laps yet ..Still a lot of work to do
