Pocono 200k [50 Laps]

Should have the track by tomorrow...

I fininished all of the long pond and short chute last night, all i need to do is put in the new pit wall and concrete pit stalls, I'l have it uploaded before 5PM, If you want to test, run the track we did for trucks. no track geometry has changed from then, only graphical and wall edits.

I can't do ANYTHING to help my setup...

After the first lap, it just goes straight to the wall off turn 1. Other times I can't even get through turn 3 or turn 1 at all without spinning -_-

So loose lap 1 = overcook tires.
Lap 2 = push to the fence

We're testing the track right now on the NRT server if you wanna come

Also I reuploaded the track on the FTP with the correct ptf, so you don't need to download the link Jake posted now

Expert track maker jake ace at it again

Pissed at my self right now. 1) for causing one of the stupider wrecks tonight. 2) for dumping myself out of a top 6.

3rd!!!! I haven't been this happy about a 3rd place finish in a while lol. I had 0 testing coming into practice and got a setup with like 15 minutes before Q. Thanks for the setup Lambert! It wasn't blazing, but it sure was consistent. I was sooo glad it went green at the end. GW Chin. You and Adam put on a heck of a show.

That was the most fucking insane battle I've ever been a part of. Never thought it would come down to an outside pass in the tunnel turn though.

I can haz replay?

I was racing with wetz and only beat him because he had engine damage, Conway mode engaged

It looked like your car was fast, it just fell off way too much. It was like what happened to me at Texas last season, I had a fast car, but it fell way off way too quickly.

Unfortunately, there weren't many adjustments that would work towards anything getting better. I'm not sure if in real life the tires would die like that though

I was fast in turn 1 after a restart, i could just never get it loosened up

That's what i get for pushing it so hard into Turn 1 every freaking lap haha. My tires on the final lap were completely shot (down to red) and in turn 3 it was all down from there XD But yeah, that had to be one of the most epic battles for the win ive ever been a part of and it was at the track i least expected to even get a top 5 at lol. Thanks for the great finish chin, and good race guys, minus the cautions XD

Yeah, the reason why I wasn't all that fast on the short run was because I was saving my tires for the longer runs, and it worked on the last run... Until my internet took a dump -_-

I'd post the replay, but falling out with 2 to go doesn't help -_-
