doubleg213 3,842 Posted June 7, 2017 Author Share Posted June 7, 2017 (edited) Just a quick edit as I want the running order to be set in advance. You will do the tests in the order of sign up, with the exception of Chubb who will be running as last car. 1: doubleg213VANS - Pfister Comet Retro 2: Trashbags - benefactor feltzer 3: Mark Verstappen - Karin Sultan 4: 5: 6: 7: 8: JuniorChubb - Benefactor Schwartzer Reserves: (for those who aren't certain of making it). 1: Aslad - Annis Elegy Retro 2: 3: Edited June 10, 2017 by doubleg213 1 Link to post Share on other sites

doubleg213 3,842 Posted June 10, 2017 Author Share Posted June 10, 2017 (edited) Verstappen took an immediate lead on the first test having one of the few clean runs with Bing 3 seconds behind him with JuniorChubb a surprising 3rd as the man with the worst car choice of the evening. I had a slow run after far too many trips into the barriers and messing up the reversing in the first set of garages. Aslad had to take a second run as a result of this incident. Trashbags came in last for this one after completely missing the second set garages and having to go back for them.

Verstappen took 2nd spot with Bing not far behind him in 3rd again. Trashbags took a creditable 4th despite having to leave us to force his front door open with his family all locked outside. Chubb was a lonely 5th wth Aslad 3 seconds back in the Elegy Retro which was looking very unsuitable for the tight tests at this stage.

Aslad took a huge chunk of time, the Elegy may not be the best at the tight manoeuvres but the acceleration and ability on the more open slaloms really made a huge difference for it. I took 2nd spot with Verstappen narrowly pipping Bing for 3rd. Trashbags continued what was a torrid night with 5th ahead of a Chubb with the Schwartzer struggling for both speed and agility. I had no decent pictures from round 3 but spectated all of the runs so here they are. Video is a bit longer than usual as it shows every run in reverse order from slowest to fastest.

I was excluded from the results due to a technical infringement leaving a podium of Verstappen, BingBong and Aslad.

Thank you to Chubb for helping out with the hosting to allow me to get some recording done (even if most of it didn't turn out of use) and for doing the artwork on this one. I merely made one test and took care of the results and the images in this post. Edited June 10, 2017 by doubleg213 5 Link to post Share on other sites
Verstappen 9,601 Posted June 10, 2017 Share Posted June 10, 2017 Jesus, I didn't even try to short shift out of the last hairpin on Sandy Shores but I just hit the right revs and it understeered me straight onto the barrier. That was a hairy moment. GG G and Chubb, was more fun then I expected it to be. Sultan was a dream to drive as well in the tight bits. Just need to learn some braking in this thing. I'll see if I can get some nice footage from the recording I made of the one run at the Docks. 2 Link to post Share on other sites
Trashbags1980 312 Posted June 10, 2017 Share Posted June 10, 2017 Was a great event apologies again for waiting for me I was up till 2 am sorting door out bloody thing great write up too gg thx to all 2 Link to post Share on other sites
Aslad 732 Posted June 10, 2017 Share Posted June 10, 2017 Was great fun, I just have to wonder how much better my time was if I hadn't done this on the first attempt: And repeatedly rammed the wall rather than going into the garage about 5 times on my second... Even so, I really enjoyed the night. Hope to see more events like this in the future 3 Link to post Share on other sites
JuniorChubb 4,513 Posted June 10, 2017 Share Posted June 10, 2017 (edited) Cheers G, good fun and well organised Well done Stapp, Aslad and Bing. I was all over the place on that run, I think only Bing and G had clean runs. Glad people enjoyed it too. We have run if before in the past and it was nice to test the water again. The only downside of this kind of event is the waiting around, I really enjow this ind of event and am happy to help out with more if it is something people want to do. @Stapp, the Sultan is fun but my fav for this is the Futo. Lots and lots of fun Edited June 10, 2017 by JuniorChubb 2 Link to post Share on other sites
catmandoza 4,582 Posted June 11, 2017 Share Posted June 11, 2017 Quite gutted I missed this one. The auto testing is much more fun than standard racing for me. Well done bing for rocking second place and not talking about custard creams all night. I'm interested in what happened with tnags and his door though!!! 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Verstappen 9,601 Posted June 11, 2017 Share Posted June 11, 2017 (edited) Remember I recorded just a small portion of footage? Decided to see what you can all do with it.

JuniorChubb 4,513 Posted June 12, 2017 Share Posted June 12, 2017 Editor really works well with Autotests, nice vid Stapp. I didn't get much footage on the night but here is one I made earlier, Autotest 02 The Docks before it was upgraded with Stunt Props... 1 Link to post Share on other sites

I'll see if I can get some nice footage from the recording I made of the one run at the Docks. Glad you enjoyed it. As much as I like doing the normal racing stuff I do like to do other stuff and it just mixes it up and provides a different kind of challenge. Cheers G, good fun and well organised Well done Stapp, Aslad and Bing. I was all over the place on that run, I think only Bing and G had clean runs. Glad people enjoyed it too. We have run if before in the past and it was nice to test the water again. The only downside of this kind of event is the waiting around, I really enjow this ind of event and am happy to help out with more if it is something people want to do. @Stapp, the Sultan is fun but my fav for this is the Futo. Lots and lots of fun I think we should do a Futo version at some point in the future, or a Futo, Compact and Muscle variant with one test in each class maybe. Already I have 5 for ideas for tests plus a couple of vague ideas I think could work as well. Having people go in on intervals helps with the waiting, although it didn't seem too bad, apart from maybe for Bing and we got through a lot quicker than I thought we might have. Sign up below, obviously car choice is fairly self-explanatory but for the hard of understanding I'll cover it now, the only allowed car is the Bravado Redwood Gauntlet and the car must be fitted with Muscle Wheels. Ideally, I'd like a mix of colours just because it looks better on pictures and videos. I know with the livery colours are a little limited as some don't show up and others do. But we'll do our best. I'll add more details once I've finalised exactly what tracks I will be running. But the basic plan is a mixture of circuit type tracks, road races, at least one off road run and some ovals. We may even have a demo derby (LTS) thrown in somewhere as well to break things up. The meetup will be at Rex's Diner on Route 68 at 7pm GMT and I'll launch the first races around 7:15 as usual. For the after playlist, I'll happily take suggestions on jobs or any races you guys have to test out, whether they be your own or not.
