Good-luck everyone.

I did Sweden early so I wouldn't forget again. But now I see the first event is ending tomorrow already, which seems like a mistake? Does that mean you'll recreate the event? I wouldn't mind, but I was actually decently happy with my run (a couple of almost clean stages!) and I doubt I can manage that again. :'(

Ohh FFS :( OMG i hate this freaking page. Sorry, i have to redo it then :(

edit: Also i get tons of this on the page, have to do those events multiple times, then it freaks out with stuff.. ohh god. I want to see the face of the dude who designed this page.



edit2: Should be fixed now! starts shortly now. Freaking PLEASE CODEMASTERS, allow us to edit f**king Seasons.

damn...now i gotta do it all over again :/...that's okay, though...took me a couple of the first stages to get my wheel dialed in and this gives me a chance to make better runs..

Sorry :(
But yeah the bright side is that you get to try again, though i don't think the stages are all same. As the page for creating those is epic crap, so i have to click lots of things within 10 minutes. If it takes longer then i will say i was logged out and i will have to start from scratch, so i just click quickly the tracks from stupid scrolldown lists which are hard to follow.

Anyway, its what it is. Page may suck but the game is still really good.

Ok Sweden done. Went terrible. Couldn't find a perfect setup for the car. Understeer on the more snowy bits and lots of oversteer on the gravely snow bits. I enjoy oversteer a lot more, but cant deal with understeer. Lots of mistakes also.

Summary:
S1: Clean
S2: Crash into snowbank twice
S3: 2 Spins, one was super fast, otherone with reverse needed
S4: Spin on straight, had to reverse
S5: Clean
S6: 2 spins, 1 on the straight where i lost a lot of time

i swear they must run that website on a Babbage Engine.....

damn....i'm out for the rest of event 2 :(

wrecked my car on stage 3 :(

Welcome to Monaco. I can't count the times my race has ended in a DNF here. Not this time though. I managed to finish, but I don't think my time is going to compare favourably to the usual pair of killjoys. :P

the worst part, i spent probably an hour+ practicing the track for stage 3, making adjustments to my wheel radius, and tuning my car, got a time i found acceptable, and started stage 3.........

perhaps i was a little too confident...

second turn into the stage, i went into a skid and was launched over the side from the low snow bank... :sick:

those "usual pair of killjoys" have given me incentive to research tips and tricks to improve my driving and finishing times :)

Monaco done. Tried to drive carefully. Saw that i was just tiny bit quicker than tuubi and started to push but then mistakes started to happen. Was pretty close lol.

S1-S3: Clean
S4: Spin at the hairpin with reverse needed
S5: Crash into stone fences, reverse needed
S6: Clean

What? I thought you were surely joking, but only 1.465 seconds... I guess I did better than I thought. :D

You did very good yeah. I don't think i could have done much better. 4th and 5th stage are the example what would have happened if i pushed more on other stages also :D Lets see what Skully can master on thisone

Went very well for me. Managed to muster up a totally clean run and a decent pace at the same time. :)

@Xpander I noticed variety in time of day and weather. Normally it's all clear and sunny. Did you do that on purpose or by mistake? Either way I really enjoyed it. Been ages since I experienced any noticeable variety in conditions.

Yeah i added some spice for the weather and time of the day, same was in Sweden :) If i don't do the extended seasons i can manage to sneak some weather conditions in. If i do extended season then it will take too much time to do that and the webpage logs me out before im finished.

You drove really fast in Monaco, even if i wouldn't make those mistakes, i wouldn't have matched your times.

Finland done. Enjoyed the Freesync that's now allowed with nvidia 418.30 drivers :) Mostly Clean run, but Exhaust was killed after second stage(Those jumps kill everything :D ) and to repair it, it was just up to 50% from zero with no other repairs, that made the car accelerate pretty slowly.

Summary:

S1-3: Clean
S4: Went between the trees, had to reverse out
S5-6: Clean

Terrible Germany event for me. Almost forgot to drive this week. Not good idea to discover on the sunday evening and then drive with a hangover.. yeah.. well :)

Summary.

S1: false start, Clean
S2: 2 crashes into stones, 1 spinned me around.
S3: Clean
S4: Roll and crash into the trees, car reset +15sec penalty
S5: Crash into stones, reverse needed
S6: Crash into stones with car spinned around.

Damn, that hangover really affected your driving. :(

What happened to you Skully on Greece? I made so many stupid mistakes, but still won by quite a big cap.

S1: went straight on hairpin, reverse needed
S2: Clean
S3: Spin on straight (lucky to stay on road)
S4: Went into bushes few corners before end of the stage, got +15 sec penalty. could have easily driven out there :(
S5: Clean
S6: Clean

I was way too tired to do my run, in fact I barely made it in time. Most of it went as bad as I expected, but I did get the fastest time on my only clean stage which makes me inordinately happy.

Hah, Nice! This time i didn't have hangover at least :)
But damn it seems there aren't many people participating anymore and the webpage is still epic shit.. not only the webpage though, when i did my runs, i constantly got the result update fails, kept pushing send again and send again, until it finally went. Their site isnt secure either. Browser screams for security issues... Hope they take care of the page when DR 2.0 comes out
