I should be around for a bit of practice.
I tried to practice yesterday, but couldn't get anyone
interested in a public lobby. I guess people don't like the
Korea circuit. It's annoying that you can't either a) start an
online lobby with just yourself + AI, or b) have an offline race
with online spec cars.

Hey that was actually a lot of fun guys, thanks for signing on
and doing some unscheduled racing!
I think I performed decently well for my first experience in
Korea driving with T-cam...a few little mistakes but nothing
that won't be ironed out by race time. If I quali on options and
nail all my apexes hopefully I can get a mid 1:31...we'll see.
1:32.5 on primes was my most optimal lap.
@Dale - during that last race did we have our usual lag problem?
I know for the first couple of laps you were hot on my tail and
I was purposely "shutting the door" as an experiment, cus I
wonder if the lag isn't as bad when there's only a few people in
the room. Sorry if we did have any contact but it was just a fun
race anyway :P Your feedback much appreciated..
Cya all tomorrow guys!

My qualifying pace is good but I'm losing balance in the race, I
think I find out a way to fix that.
And drew I noticed u were losing control and I was in the way, I
thought u were trying to go to the pits there lol

I was the opposite. My quali pace wasn't so great, but I seemed
to be ok in the race.
That was pretty much my first online racing at Korea, so I'm
happy enough. It also reminded me of the mad pit exit. What are
you meant to do there?! Use the run off area, or just rejoin
straight into the racing line of turn 1?

Yeah Moussa I gave too much right-lock around that last curve
and just lost the back end. Thought I gave you a whack (and also
the same thing around that left/right hand S-turn at the end of
S2 so that's why I just pulled over and let you past lol.
As for the pit exit I think you need to rejoin before the run
off area. If you wash out wide enough you should be able to
rejoin with no dramas although the preferred line through the
exit of T2 is the outside. I say just be very careful.

Drew we had no contact was a good battle, didn't really test the
lag issue. I just run wide at one of the corners and thats when
I dropped off.

Yeah I thought so. I gave you plenty of room at T3 on L1, but at
T1 on the 2nd lap I saw your arrow appear behind me and I
sharply closed the door (which, in our league would most likely
have put you off) but I kept in it and saw you were still going
so no dramas.
I really think it's not as big a problem with less people ....
less connections between all the cars going around I think it's
just when we have 8+ people that my "Australian lag" kicks in. I
have practiced with my teammate on more than one occasion close
racing wheel to wheel with no issues.
