Unfortunately that's not going to work, because bots starting from (or behind) a corner will try to find the shortest way to the start/finish line and get stuck.

I read somewhere that players can't miss 2 or more races. So, what I said wrong?

Tijny I really love your racing lines i practiced a lot vs the bots.. But now i got a question. When i practiced I drove around 34.200 but ofcourse without fuel...

So whats Equivelant to driving with Fuel to driving without fuel.

I.E. Without fuel is same speed as a Car with 50% fuel or otherwise?

Playing without fuel means you can utilize the car to its full potential; i.e. no slowdown at all. With fuel on, even if your tank is almost empty, the car will always be somewhat slower than it would normally be.

talking about fuel gives me this question: does fuel have a certain kind of wieght then aswell that makes the car slower or is the speed decreased in some other way? (since this is a game)

if it does add weight to car what is the formule for this?
i know it would depend on what the setting timefuel is right?
anyway hope i can get an answer :)

its a subject that interests my mind :P
Dont beg for things do it yourself or else you wont get anything!!

/fuel 1 gives quite a good explanation of how fuel affects car behavior.

You can see fuel settings by typing /fuel

Attribute 'full slowdown' tells how much slower your car is with 100% fuel compared to car with fuel off. But you can't apply it straight to laptimes because distance of optimal driving line depends on slowdown, so that very likely the optimal driving line will be bit shorter with a lot slowdown.

I had no motivation before this race, so I could not learn the track before qualifying. I found good speed halfway through the race, but by that time I was far back. I also made a lot of dumb mistakes and I could not catch Matic... until the final turns, If i had one more lap I could have tried to pass.

I feel like Raikkonen now, lost motivation and I finish 10th.

My race comments..

Practice: in the first session I had quite many troubles with traffic, so I didn't quite focus on finding the right line. Practice 2 went better and I set the fastest lap.

Qualify: my first attempt wasn't too bad so I stopped to save fuel. Sixth place on the grid, not very good.

Race: the good thing is that I tried to enjoy the race knowing that I couldn't have battled for the first position. As usual, my start wasn't very nice, so a couple of cars passed me. It was fun to overtake them later, and start my comeback. Second place seemed to be achievable, but wrong fuel calculations and mistakes made a prize to Janne. But good race in overall.

Next weekend I will A) Before the race make sure my router is positioned correctly so I can actually take part and B) Make sure all work that must be done for monday is done on saturday or sunday morning. Im now last in the league Q_Q


On another note: Pingu I did a 33.5 in eisenstadt with no fuel, just proving what tjiny says about there being significant slowdown even on 1% fuel.
I also managed just under 35 seconds at TSE_Silgreen :o

Just watched the race back through, Im upset I missed it :(

Tjiny was completely untouchable, brilliant performance as usual.

Exiting last 10 laps between dede and janne, could of gone either way!

Badeend just managed to fend off mike at the end, was close tho :o

I especially enjoyed the nicely fairplay battle between dede and janne though, some great laps fought between you.
