Missed the start by quite a margin, i assume it will be posted as a youtube vid once completed?

Re-run can be seen on twitch right now, I'll load it up to youtube now so an hour or two until its processed on there.

That race :lol:

Cheers, will catch up with everything tomorrow.

12mins in for the race start.

Very entertaining, shame it’s so difficult to keep up with it all. Some great strategy calls from Chariot.

I was going to put it on the oval layout for the US but I'd have had no chance of keeping up as that layout is such a short lap. I try and zoom out a bit so more can be followed off-focus, but then I can struggle to identify who is who. At least you guys can pause and rewind if needs be.

GRcade Cup - Results

This was a race that kept on giving. Mildew took a commanding lead over Red Dog at the start, before a pit stop error meant that Red Dog lost his tyre and had to do an extra pit, dropping him a lap down and 19th.

A SC was deployed when Satriales lost the car, and gave Vermilion a fortunate pit stop to catapult him to the lead with no need to stop again. Red Dog pitted from last under SC with nothing to lose.

Devlin charged through the field, pitted and undercut the field with blistering pace to reach 4th before Rossini called him in for new tyres two laps from the end. Devlin was vocal about his feelings afterwards, as the consensus was he should have stayed out and scored points.

I'm genuinely furious with that last tyre change. :evil:

It's AI strategy like that which always makes me hesitant about these games.

I'd quite like to see longer form races so you get more chance to take in what's going on. Appreciate Roon might not want to sit through all that though.

Considering my team is clearly Ferrari it's surprisingly accurate to their current form. :lol:

Got the safety car just when i needed it. :datass:

AI isn't cranked to Max on strategy, as I wanted to see some strategy variation, and gives me some wiggle as I'm multitasking. Sometimes it allows the AI to play a blinder, and sometimes it does a Ferrari.

Longer form races are possible, it's mainly set to short to be respectful of your time. I normally play on Medium or Long races, but they can be up to 45mins Vs the 20mins or so for this one.

I have been jotting down some thoughts on how I would run this if I did it again, but I'll share it after the season ends.

Absolute disaster for me.

Okay, race is split in two as there was a potential issue with watchability but I think it was on Kinopio's end. So once I pause the footage at about 10mins40sec you can jump to the next video in the spoiler box where we restart the race at 1min30sec. Probably processing still for a little while, if you wish you can still watch as re-runs on Twitch.

Asia-Pacific Supercup Results - Oh, double points is a thing.

European Racing Series Results - And double points finale is also a thing here too.

Glad to get my race win and 2nd place, but I'm still strawberry floating pissed about that previous race.

I want words to be had with my strategists over the calls they made, especially costing me a lot of points last race.

EDIT: Just looked at the previous round again and that decision to call me in on the 2nd last lap and change my tyres for no discernable reason cost me 12 points. Which would have won me the championship. strawberry floating AI bastards.

Great idea man and thanks for running this. Great fun.
