  1. Thanks for the patch, Eventually.  

    @Justbiglee, @Loore, @Satine, @CODEMASTERS

    Could you please explain to me what a "TIME TRIAL" is? 

    The intel challenge states in black n white, that its a "TIME TRIAL"  on the racenet.com page explaining the competition.  Yet in reality its a "RACE"  with your brilliantly coded A.I.

    If anyone has read the small print, they will know there are numerous warnings not to cheat, use automated software etc,  any BS times will be banned atc.   But what It doesnt say is:  What happens when the company running the competition has labeled the events wrongly.  

    Its like the lottery saying they will pick the numbers at random, and then dont.  


    WHY IS IT SOOOOOOO DAMN HARD FOR YOU TO GET THINGS RIGHT. 

    Is the person behind this fiasco, the same person responsible for coding the savegames? 


    WHO, WHEN, WHERE, WHY AND WHAT - ASKED FOR FULL DAMAGE ON THE RACENET CHALLENGES? 



  2. Magnasson ended up with a 20 second penalty for running Alonso wide.  No contact just drove him out wide onto the grass. 

    I wounder what sort of penalty the F1 officials would have awarded Mad Dad for his 1st contact.  When you say he's along side me, he's actually no where to be seen, then screams into the screen and hits me, and starts shouting at me. Then he hits me again, when im tryin to recover form being hit the 1st time.  

    Micky was behind me,   same as Rosberg was behind Hamilton.  I was in the process of taking the turn, and then I find a car in my door.  Contact, in a NON contact sport caused my the car behind. 

    I can race anyone fairly.

    I can do that, or I can do a Mad Dad or micky video. 

    :smiley: 



  3. Who's to blame for the incident between Hamilton and Rosberg? 

    I say Rosberg 100%,  he is the car behind, its up to him not to make contact. 

    But..........

    Going by some Grid forum discussions it was Hamiltons fault,  as Rosberg was at the side of him, 

    What a good job the penalties are not issued by codemasters or some Forum users.

    If you cut the track & go slower while doing it, you don't get a penalty in GAS.

    Not always the case.

    The competition is a complete and utter shambles.

    The main problems with it..

    - You can use your own car and set it up accordingly (Highly unfair on new players who have to spend all week getting to level 50)

    - It's a ****ing race, why's it a ****ing race? (It should be a time trial/time attack, then a clean lap is achievable without having to battle the A.I into the first corner)

    There is no level playing field in this competition, it's unfair. Plain and Simple. The worst part? I messaged JustBigLee about it a few days back, he hasn't even bothered to reply to me.

  5. LMAO im on a pad too.

    Honestly I dont understand where Im either losing time, or not making up time.  As far as I can see, im nailing it.  

    But clearly the times show, that im not.  

    This is why, I was asking about people setups.  It seems like to get the laptimes I need TC on,  this allows you to just brake and get straight on the power,  but with TC on, im even slower.  LOL 

    TC off im much quicker, but I feel like im just too slow around the corners.  

    I think im driving the car like a touring car, and the 3.46 club is driving it like an F1 car.  

    TO the Winner - be sure to let me know how good your PC is,  LMAO


  6. @loore @‌Justbiglee

    Who exactly is monitoring the challenge leaderboards.   Check out the PC intel challenge leaderboard.  

    Im not calling the guy in number 1 a cheat or anything, but come on CM remove this cheating SOB from your online services.  

    3.32 on Jarama - BOLLOCKS

    Find out his MAC address and ban him. Every minute that time is on there makes a mockery of you, the game, and the rest of us.

  7. Corner extending everywhere in that video. Almost all of you.

    its a game - 

    Did u see the F1 qualifying today?   Cars using kerbs all over the place.  Hamilton even said he tries to use all the track and then some.  

    Watch the race tomorrow and count the number of times you see a car go over the white lines and not get anything because of it.  You will lose count.

    When entering a corner from outside of the white lines, you're creating a wider turning circle, meaning a faster entry speed. That's what the first penalty was for. And when you exit wide, again, larger turning radius means higher exit speed.

    Sorry, I think youve watched the wrong video. 

    The 1st penalty I get, is not from entering the corner from outside the white lines.  I get the penalty because I run wide avoiding the car infront of me, as he is going slower from being on the grass,  

    If that car had not been coming back on the track, I could have used that part,  but I ease off and try to get around on the outside, and get a penalty.  So im not going full throttle, and ive come off the line,  both of these give me a disadvantage and therefore should not give me a penalty.

    The 2nd one, I dont make a place by going to the grass,  Im having that place anyway, as the car has spun out.  I take evasive action, and get a penalty.  

    Maybe I wouldnt feel so hard done by, if the flashback didn't give him the lead straight back.  It was all clean n fair racing,  and Im not complaining because I lost the race,   Just seems unfair, as I didn't make the mistake, yet I lose out  because I didn't want to have any contact.
