And yes Ken, you infected me with the V8 bug. I love the car, love the tracks (bought and tried Donnington), and love the racing. I hate you :D
Took you a while. For all the grilling we got when we started driving the damn car.

I broke my iRacing, so don't have the replay, but here's the grid. Almost all teams were grouped together with B2O taking 9th, 10th and 11th with 9th, 10th and 12th finish.

Congrats to Peeble on his first race and pretty decent pace with 2 days under his belt.

Some (not-so-)glamour (soley due to my photography skills) shots from this weeks race:


All three Band of Others Racing cars started next to each other, 9th-11th!




Close racing between Dino and I throughout the entire race led to a lot of close action!



Half way through the race, and all three B2O cars were still within sight of each other!

Working on uploading the full video, and I'll work on the highlights video tomorrow.

Edit: WOOOOOWWWWW I'm dumb... uploaded the images, posted here, and then moved the images in Photobucket... great going moron..

Oh, and the video:

Nope! Just post on the forum! Someone else in TS was interested in joining up as well, so we could get a B2O C team going! ;)

Yeah I'll have to figure out who was talking about it. Either way, I need to start practicing. Have you guys been on Monza all week? Or not yet?

It was probably me talking about it as Humberto Roca expressed interest so I offered him a spot on the Team which he's currently considering.

Ultimately though, we can field as many drivers as we want because I've heard there's typically close to 20 Pit Stalls available later in the Season.

The one comment that may come up though is that we're flooding the field with Band of Others cars which I love but some may not be in favor of. I only mention it here because it was brought to my attention in passing (nothing serious).

I love the fact we're fielding this many drivers but really think we should add a second paint scheme, this one to market Practice Pals with Band of Others as a smaller footnote on the paint.

I've been messing around with a Practice Pals Livery on the KIA which I can post later. Just know it's really rough and hasn't been flushed out as of yet.

Lastly, I wasn't going to mention it earlier but now that the animated pic has been posted I have to comment on it.

This...



...cannot happen in League if you are to run the Band of Others colors.

If you must capture something like this then do it far away from other traffic where no one else can be affected outside those participating.

It would be different if these guys asked you to do this but they didn't and were irritated by it.

These guys were lined up for a group shot and did not appreciate this happening around them.

I know its fun and believe me I understand how important it is to cut loose now and then but you guys need to be cognizant of the fact these Leagues exist so drivers don't have to be around this type of behavior.

One of these drivers had something like 5 incident points on the entire season and takes clean racing extremely serious. All that needed to happen was for someone to catch the grass or something for an incident to occur.

I ask you all please take this seriously because I don't want any negativity pointing back toward this Community or our iRacing programs.

For this reason I'll be assigning Team Leaders who can ensure driving standards are kept in my absence.

Remember, the brass ring here is our own League and if we're not going to attract drivers if all we do is clown around and cause havoc on track.

If too many B2O themes are an issue I can find something else.
I never said it was an issue, only that it was mentioned in passing.

I'd recommend we look at creating a Practice Pals Skin as well as this is the perfect opportunity to do so.

I know. I don't want to cause any issues though in the league. I think it would be really cool to keep them similar but obviously different. Something like inverting the colors... something like keeping the design and aesthetics the same but at the same time, making it obvious we are affiliated.

Maybe all white with orange stripe up the side and the light blue pin striping? Or maybe all orange with black stripe up the size and light blue pin striping. I think those could be very good looking.

Ken, if you're going to be THAT strict about, please says so and the situation can be rectified.

On the note regarding the "incident": all 3 cars stopped in the middle of the track on the cool down lap, which was rather stupid to begin with, but being good sports and not saying anything to that, Zac and I decided to make it fun. We stopped, pulled along side of their cars, someone asked us to move due to picture being taken. We did and everything was fine and dandy.

Take note: this lasted 15 seconds.

Also, tell Troy that getting incidents AFTER the race, doesn't count towards anything, and Tim Briggs on their team punted Zack in the official SOF race, 3 times: 4x, 4x, 1x by pushing off track. So yeah, they ain't so clean either.
