500 miles on TM2 - RR Indy Legends

Ladies&gentleman, RRR friends&partners, parents&relatives, pets&aliens, RRR team proudly present FIRST 500 MILES RACE on TM2: Canyon game! It's 23-th Indy Legend race in the row, but first on TM2 game, so all you lovley people who lke this game and this team too, come and join us for this, already, epic event!

What's all about you ask? First of all, you must show on Saturday night! #zuzwinker Everything else is less important.. #blbl Race start at 23:00! Yes, it's little late, but that's traditon for this kindf of events, so try to convince your boyfriend&girlfriend/husbands&wifes/mum&dad that you have a very important things on late Saturady night!
For all of you how already play TM2 Championship here, rules are simple.. There's a quali season, and PIT mod during a race, but newcomers need to know first some rules before they start this event.. On 23:00 start quali season no.1. It's 10 minutes of driving which you 'warming up' for the race.. After that starts quali season no.2. In this seasion everybody goes to Spectator Mode, and then organizer of this event (Jahombre) will ask each driver to exit from Spec mode and to drive.. Order how drivers will drive this quali no.2. seasion is simple! It will be form worst to best driver based by the time that they get in quali season no.1.
You are driving only 2 laps in this quali season.. After you exit form Spec mode , and start racing, you go straight to the PITS (we explain PITS later), and you fuel for 10 minutes , and then drove that lap (called Pit Lap).. After that you are in second lap (call Hot Lap) and this lap is count for a GRID, so try to do your best here! After that second lap is over, you again go to Spec Mode, and wait for other drivers to finish..
One note here!! It may happen that there want be a quali seasion no.2., so after finishing Quali seasion no.1. we go straight ahead to the race, and your GRID number is place that you have in Quali seasion no.1.! Organizer (Jahombre) before Quali no.1. will tell if there will be Quali seasion no.2.! #zuzwinker
After finishing Quali seasion no.2. (or just no.1.) it's time for a race! First there's a Warm Up lap, which you can or don't have to drive.. After next restart , real race is starting! First lap is intro lap, and here you must follow Safety Car! You don't go in PITS on this lap!! In intro lap try not to cross Start/Finish line, and place yourself before that line, and wait for a GRID to show! After some time, GRID will show and you have a look from top-down perspective.. If other cars interfere with your car, turn off Oppoments Show button, so that you can only see your car.. Place yourself in GRID position that you have acquire in Quali seasion no.2.. You will have about 30secs to do this, so try to position your car in time! After that, GRID is no longer shown, and your perspective is now back for a race look.. If you disabled to show oppoments, you can now turn on this, so that you can see other cars that are on the GRID.. Then you wait for red lights to show, and after all red lights go off, offical race is starting! Then you immediately go to PITS to fuel yourself.. Few words about this amazing PITS..
There's 3 PITS choice here! 10min, 20min and 30min of fuel.. Fuel means minutes here, so you are spending minutes, not real fuel, so no matter are you driving or not, minutes are using and passing.. For 10min of fuel you must stay in PIT for 6,5 secs, for a 20min of fuel you stay 18,5 secs, and for a 30 min of fuel you stay 30 secs.. Camera look will be change while standing in PIT, and please do not go eariler from PIT, but wait when you here "GO, GO.." and when your camera is back to your car! Last thing you should know about PITS, if you are fueling for a 20 or 30 minutes, that you may enconuter Tyre Wear problem.. On 15 minutes from 20 minutes fuel, and on 20minutes of 30 minutes fuel, you will come across to a shaking screen! This means that your tyres, allegedly, are getting worse, but that's only illusive trick! Your car preformace is still good, just that shaking screen is a nice trick so that you may think that your tyre aren't good.. (We are trying to make this mod look like a simulation #blbl )
It's not hard to drive while screen is shaking, but after some minutes shakings can be a little harder, so may cause you a little bit a problem to drive, but most of us are already get used for that, so you will not having problem either! After your fuel (minutes) are getting close to zero, you will need to go to PITS again and fuel again..
We are driving 397 laps here!! And if avarage lap is around 17-18 secs, and you tank for a 20minutes, you will make almost 70 lap with that fuel.. Tactics? See for yourself (or ask best driver #zuzwinker ) Track? It's very simple.. It's like NASCAR track, just one big circle.. 4 same turns to the left side, and that's only you need to know..

And that's about it.. It may seem to hard for remember this rules about PITS and Quali, but it's very simple to follow, and there's always organizer here, who explain everything in Chat section.. Race will be long approximately 2 hours, so be prepare to knock yourself out with this event! It's not for anyone, but I dobuted that you will resist this invite and prove that you ARE someone! #top

Hope to see good numbers of drivers, and that we have a stabile host, and that everybody will enjoy this event! Practice server is already open, so find it (it's on flayer of this event with password too), so come and test track and PIT strategy, and than we see you all on Saturday night at 23:00
:ciao2:

6-th GT Race - RootsLagos

Hi RRR drivers and friends! #handgeb
We are at half of Championship, so this Sunday we are driving 6-th race this season on RootsLagos track! We have an excellent turnout, so I'm not doubting that we want have around 25 drivers again..
Hope to see you all, and hope our remasy will find a way to drive without using his middle finger #zuzwinker Also, hope to see anyone with good connection too, so that we all have fun racing..

Image

As you can see, this track is a long track, and it's around 1 minute, so you'll need it to remember good and be well prepered! PITS are on the left side right after Start/Finish line, and exit form PITS is just before turn no.2. Also it's a tricky exit, cause you may hit the wall in some corner there, so try not to lose any additional time while exiting PITS.. Turn no.1. and no.2. are easy turns, so try not to be rookie here (like me), and avoid mistakes #zuzwinker Turn no.3. and no.4. are in combination, and you only need to pay attention while exiting turn no.4. on uphill not to tilt your car a lot, cause that may lead you to hitt the wall on the right side of the track, and than you will lose good speed! Turn no.5. is also an easy turn, so it will make you no problem there, but on turn no.6. on that chicane that lead you on uphill, try to be very near on the left side after entering chicane, cause you can easily go wide here and then hitting the wall on the right side.. Turn no.7. will make no problems for you friends, but combination of turn no.8, no.9, and no. 10. can make you a little problem.. It's a combination of right-left-right turns, on the uphill, which you can make your car tilt on turn no.9, or even hit the fence on the right side of the track in turn no.10. So you'll need to practice this combination, cause you may even DNF here! Last sector is tricky one too.. Nasty chicane on turn no.11, can give you a headache, cause you come on this turn right after jump, so it's hard to stabilize your car in time, ending up by hitting a wall there! After that it's almost an easy turn no.12. and then similar chicane like one before, on turn no.13. Also try not to hit wall cause you will lose speed.. Last turn is turn no.14. and it's a tricky one too, cause you must slide on the left side, but it's downhill, and, cause you have a good speed, your car can easily tilt here, so go very wide here and be almost near the left side of the track, then you can pass this turn properly, otherwise you can easily hit the wall..

As you can see, it's a long lap, and very demanding one, so you will need to be focus all race long! Hope to see another good race on this Sunday night, and that we spend another hour of racing in this amazing GT Championship!

5th GT Race Review - RootsMontyCarlo

Ok, no time to chit-chat, so I will be short and get right to the point #zuzwinker
5 GT race is over, and now things are more clearer! Dome2012 DNF, so he 'donate' his win to Laurens, who now has a lead of 39 points over Dome..
It was a very good night again, with 26 drivers on the track, proofing that this GT Chamipionship is a excellent thing, and that after 5 races, is still amazing turnout of drivers! But there was 24 drivers on quali, cause MaSSa and remasy made it only at the start of the race!

Pole Position was surprisingly take by Mirosh, and WeSSy was second! In the second row, there was a Winner and Vesiapina! Leading drivers Dome2012 and Laurens, didn't make good hot lap, so Dome start at 16-th place, and Laurens form 23-th place!
Although it was much easier track than previous one, this track 'take' 7 drivers too! Some was because of bad connection(MaSSa, me..), someone due to lag (Dome2012..), someone with driving problems, but that's the 'fun' of playing online games #blbl

Cause Dome2012 went 'dark', Laurens take his third win in the row and making good progress in overall driver standings.. WeSSy and Winner were excellent here! They were second and third, just like they did on the Quali!! #respekt In the thriller finish fot the 4-th place, Jahombre make it as a winner there! With only +0.58 secs of gap over ARS-sm!e, he get his PB this season! 6-th place is taken by Icke, who was only +1.04 secs behind sm!e, and with only +0.58 secs of advantage over hpr-Marian! What a race in the last lap!! #klatsch
AMP-scape got 8-th place, ADAC-Drive was 9-th and Haze was 10-th. Mirosh, with his Pole Position, end up at 11-th place in the end! Points are going to Quickies, CoolDriving, Sulfite, tbvivien, DarkMan, remasy, Krumel and MidnightMan, but 1 point goes to Vesiapina, cause he was on track longer than other DNFs, so he end up on 20-th place, and with one point in his pocket!

As told before, Laurens now has a big lead over Dome2012 (160-121 pts), so Dome need to give his best in next races if we wanna get Laurens! In Top 5 races, there's Wessy on 3-rd place (87 pts), and his teammate Icke on 5-th place (79 pts), and ARS-sm!e in the 'middle' of them on 4-th place (85 pts)! Very good progress is made by Jahombre, who is now in the battle for a bronze medal too! He is on 6-th place and has 75 pts! At the bottom, only 2 drivers is without points! BVB (who was at 2 races), and kenz who never start this season! Hope to see them too, very soon..
In Team Championship, Amplified has a lead with 210 points, RedDevil is on second place with 180 pts, and with Roadrunners on 3-rd place with 166 pts, other teams don't have chance to fight for a podium (so far as seen), but still 7 races to come, so many cards yet to deal..

It's already Thursday, so practice week is on almost 4 days now, so no time to stay here and read this, cause you'll need to prepare yourself for a Sunday night!

5 GT Race - RootsMontyCarlo

Long time no see/read drivers #aetsch
Anyway, this Sunday we are alreday at 5 GT race on this already legendary Championship, and this track is a bit easier than the last one, so I think that there will be few, or maybe none of DNF!

Image

On the left side right after Start/Finish line are Pits, and exit from the Pits is a behind one turn and right before when you go on turn no.2 on litlle downhill.. Also turn no.1. is easy turn, so you will not have lot of problem with this one turn, just try not to hit the wall while exiting it! Turn no.2. it's not so hard as it is sneaky one, cause if you don't go wide here, you may end up in the air and hitting wall , and even maybe end up on roof! So try to go wide here, and not to go in jump mode! Turn no.3. can be decived one, cause if you try not to slide here, and make it thru with the full throtlle, you may hit the wall in exiting it, but this turn should not cause you any large problems! From here you go into the 'open' tunnels and coming in turn no.4. on the uphill.. This turn is no problem for me, so that means no problem for anyone #blbl On turn no.5. try to be near left side and don't worry if your car jump or tilt for a while, cause it can't do any damage..
Then it's downhill into the turn no.6. and if you start turning on time, you can pass it without slide and with the full speed! After that is long part, and then to the most tricky one on track! Turn no.7. is nasty chicane, and you come there on very good speed, and due that and low visibility of corner, you can end up hitting wall! If you succed this turn, there's turn no.8. right after that, so you need to conitnue your slide from turn no.7. And if you do that, than you need to continue to the turn no.9. and then uphill from there.. This turns are hardest part on the track, so you need to pay attention there, cause you can lose lots of time there! Last turn no.10. isn't hard, but try not to hit the wall while exiting it! So, long story shorted: don't jump on turn no.2. and stay focused on turns no.7,8,9!!

After 4 races Laurens is in the lead with only 4 points of advantage over Dome2012 (125-121), so main focus will be their fight for the gold crown of this Chamiponship.. Also Team Chamiponship is good too! Amplified is in the lead (Laurens-scape) with 5 points advantage over Red Devils Team (Dome2012-Winner), but RoadRunner and now miniMAX Team are still trying to keep with them..
So, MONTYCARLO #blbl race is on practice week already, so try to spend little time practicing it, and hope to see you all on Sunday night at 19:30!!

4-th GT Race Review - RootsGrindelwald

Ola RRR drviers&friends #wink
4-th GT TM2 race is behind us, and now things are heat up very good! Very good turnout on Sunday race too! 25 drivers were ready to test their skills on very hard track! As I said in the announcement of this track, it's very hard to drive, and as I presume, there were lots of DNF on this track! 11 drivers didn't make it to the finish, and amoung them very good driver too, such MaSSa, WeSSy, Winner, scape, Mirosh etc..
Unfortenelly, Jahombre had some problems with getting right times on the end of the race, so due that, we don't have a finish race time, and even don't have some best lap of each drvier, so I don't know exactly gaps betwen each place! But at least we get right positions #blbl

But lets start with the Quali.. Laurenš get Pole Position, with only +0.25 gap of Vesiapina, who had 3-rd place on his debi last race.. MaSSa get 3-rd place, and Dome2012 'only' get 4-th place.. My friend remasy, didn't quali so, he started behind red line #zwinker
Although Jahombre sent me a replay, I didn't have any time to watch it, due my very busy week, so I will get straight to the final results! Hope you don't mind that.. #zuzwinker
Laurenš proves his rank at this game, so he wins his second race on GT Championship (MaSSa and Dome have one victory too..) Dome2012 has silver medal, and G.F1 TTCO made it to third place after bad quali start from 17-th place! Very good debi of the player who had this game only for a one week #top But drivers of the day are LameDuck and Jahombre! 4-th and 5-th place for this two vetarans of the game are excellent place and their teams are very pleased for that so they put some bonus on they money account #respekt sm!e gad 6-th place, Icke 7-th, and MidnightMan get very good 8-th place! Suflite was 9-th, Andi 10-th, and remasy was 11-th!! Morpheus end up 12-th and lovley two ladies Krumel and K.O.Hasi were 13-th and 14-th! Quickes DNF just 2 lap to go, and WeSSy 5 laps to go, but they manage to get poitns because they DNF last of all DNF.. Also, Haze, scape, Mirosh and tbvivien get points too, cause they manage to make more laps than Winner, CoolDriving, Vesiapina, NH90 and MaSSa... This last two went 'dark' after just 2 laps, and that was not good for a race, especially for MaSSa who would be 99% figthing on the podium here.. But that's life, and that's online gaming.. But I know this will not put down him, and that he will show his skills on next race..

After this win by Laurens, now he got lead in Chapionship! He has 125 points, and Dome2012 have 121 point! It will be a interesting season for these two guys.. But bronze medal is open to lots of drivers! sm!e, Icke, WeSSy, Jahombre, drive and Monty are in this race for bronze, and if MaSSa, TTCO and Vesiapina manage to be on races and finish it, they are 'in' too!
Jahombre make this track harder than previous once, and due that we got 11 DNF, but still, it's good to have some harder track, so then we got unusally result at the end! #zuzwinker 4 of 12 races are over, but no rest for a wicked, cause this Sunday 5-th GT race is on! Quite easier than this one, so hope to see less number of DNF! Also hope to see still large number of driver (finnaly I will be there too), so maybe we even see record on race with 30+ drivers on race! To see that, you must fulfill your duty, and come to Sunday at 19:30!! #top
So, keep practicing RRR drivers&friends, stay healthy, and see you on Sunday night for some nice racing..

4-th GT Race - RootsGrindelwald

Ok guys, we are getting serius this time.. 4-th GT race is a one-mother****er-hard-track! Jahombre manage to put everything in here like in TM FL races! #klatsch Although I applauded him for his tunnels, uphills$downhills, blockmixing etc. I honestly think this is a quite challange track where there will be a lots of mistakes, and maybe a lots of DNF too! Again I'm working this Sunday, but I know if I will be driving this, that this track make my race a living hell #zorn

Image

Even picture is hard to explain #blbl Ok, let's even try it.. After Start/Finish line, on the left side are PITS, and you are off the PITS right before first tunnel! Also, when you pass Start/Finish line, you come to turn no.1. which is an easy turn, so try to be near left side while you passing/sliding it.. Then we enter first tunnel ( green dot line!) and while exitinig we come to turn no.2. which is a tricky chicane, because it's fast and you just came from tunnel so daylight just hit you in yor eyes #zwinker Turn no.3. is just after turn no.2. and it's one of the hard parts of the track, cause blockmixing make it harder! When you try to exit turn no.3. you may end up on right side of that blockmixing, and that may not end up good! So beware here!! After that we enter a second tunnel ( green dot line) and it's also a tricky tunnel, cause you must not drive near left side or you hit the wall straith ahead! Try to be on the right side, but remember that if you have a good speed that you may even jump while entering a tunnel, so you'll need to sliding and jumping simultaneously! And that's turn no.4. what we are talking about.. Turn no.5. is also a tricky one, cause your car is in air while exiting tunnel, but chicane in turn no.5. make it hard to align your car properly! Little chicane in turn no.6. can be deceived too, when you try to exit chicane and than you may hit the wall and spin your car there! Turn no.7. can be done easly if you don't go wide before jump, cause you may hit the wall there too! In turn no.8. (green dot line) we enter a third tunnel, and last one, in this track, but just try to be on the right side and there will be no problem here.. Next sector of track is little uphills to the left and turn no.9. While exiting that turn, it's possible to titl your car little, so try not to push hard there! Turn no 10. is a similar turn like turn no.9. jus this one is to the right side! Last turn no.11. is almost easy turn cause you can even pass it without slide, but just try not to hit the wall before last jump and Start/Finish line!

I try to explain as I could do better, but it's better that you guys spend a (lot of) time in practice week! It's good to know MaSSa will be here, so fight for the gold should be interesting too! Also, I don't doubt that good turnout around 25 drivers want be there too! Unfortunately I'm working, and Slaven have a game problems, so G.F1 want be there again! #nixweiss Hope to see that race will be Ok, and that there will be no problem, so that we can enjoy this epic Chamipinship every race till end! #feier

3rd GT Race Review - RootsBangkok

Fight for this Championship is heating up, and it's very bad that MaSSa and Monty didn't race this Sunday, beacuse they will set this all on fire too! Also, Gecko Team got a excellent second driver - Vesiapina, and man, believe me, he got speed! His debi here was amazing, he got Bronze medal!! Turnout was solid too! 24 drivers is very nice number, if we count that there weren't MaSSa, Monty, me, Slaven, Krumel, Lameduck, Alex, BvB..

As said before, Bangkok is very long and not so easy track, so mistakes here are made often.. Unfortenaly I wasn't there, so I didn't make any mistake #blbl Dome2012 is still our best driver(hmm I speak as I'm one of RRR member #lach ) so we put are all hope in it, cause, as I alreday said, MaSSa&Monty weren't here... And he start good cause he get Pole Postion in Quali, with just little advantage over Laurenš! Vesiapina got 3-rd place, and Scape was 4-th! WeSSy was solid here too, and with the good time on practice, and he got 5-th starting place, and I was expecting good race for him too!

But after race finish, there were different outcome! Laurenš wins here, so Amplified Team finnaly wins here.. Dome2012 was behind him over 25 seconds of gap! Vesiapina got bronze medal, and 4-th place got second Ampllified driver - scope! Ars-sm!e was 5-th, and Jahombre make it to 6-th place after bad 19-th place on Quali! Very good race and position my friend! Keep it up! #yippie Roadrunner team (Icke and WeSSy) were 7-th and 9-th, ADAC team (Drive and Ony) were 8-th and 13-th! In TOP 10 Mirosh get 10th place with only +1,44 secs of gap behind 9-th WeSSy.. CoolDriving get 10 poitns for his solid 11-th place! Our Danish friend Haze, finnaly manage to finish, and he get 12-th place! DarkMidnight Team were solid, but I know they can do better, but 14-th place (MidnightMan) and 19-th place (DarkMan) are nice place in this good competition of drivers! Little dissapiontment comes from Winner who only get 15-th place in the end.. Points also get veteran NH90 (16-th place), Sulfite (17-th), tbvivien (18-th) and Morpheus (20-th place).. This track also took 4 'victims', and there are: K.O.Hasi, Remasy, Andi and Qucikes!

As you can see, theres no time for rest and deeper analysis, cause next race is on this Sunday, and practice week is already started! Dome is in the lead with 93 poitns, but Laurenš is very near him with 89 poitns, so this will be epic fight till end.. Wessy with his good and consist driving is in 3-rd place with 54 points! As I said few times in this article, too bad MaSSa and Monty aren't in every race, cause fight for the crown here will be for history books #zwinker Newcomer Vesiapina may be a good candidate for a podium too in the end, but will see about that.. Red Devil Team is in the lead (Dome2012 and Winner) but Winner must improve his driving, cause Amplified Team (Laurenš and scope) are just 6 points behind, so Team fight will be interesting too! Although RoadRunners (Wessy and Icke) don't get podiums, they are always in TOP10, and cause of that and that there are in all races so far, there are in 3-rd place with 99 points, so they are in too for a Team Championship! ADAC Team are on solid 4-th place with 84 points, and L.Town Audi Team (MaSSa and Monty) have only 2 points less then they, but they only have 3 races in total so far..

Hope to see this good interest until the end, and that the fight for a Driver Championship and Team Championship, will be interesting and open until last race! Also it will be good for a race, that L.Town Audi team are more often on races.. But so far, so good, so keep it up RRR drivers and friends!!
