18:59   Nuppiz   seems that Nurmester has been infected with Nurmovitschitis

19:30   Salamander   go away maddock
19:31   Cynon   Speaking of Zimsanity
19:31   Salamander   NO NO ON NO NO
19:31   Cynon   has ZimSport confirmed their second driver yet?
19:31   Salamander   goddamn

19:31   Cynon   Hildebranded?
19:31   Salamander   no
19:31   Salamander   championship leader right behind him
19:32   Salamander   he passes him at the last corner
19:32   Darkapprentice77   wow, what a finish
19:32   Nuppiz   my goondess Nurmovitsch is useless
19:32   Darkapprentice77   i thought salamander was going to explode
19:32   Salamander   carlton is so sacked
19:32   Cynon   What race is this?
19:32   Salamander   rtcc
19:32   Darkapprentice77   RTCC belgium
19:32   Nuppiz   Dark, could I see a replay of the Kickert-Nurmester collision pls?
19:33   Cynon   Reject Touring Car Championship or Russian Touring Car Championship?
19:33   Darkapprentice77   yes after i've posted the results
19:33   Nuppiz   I want to know whom to blame for it...
19:33   Salamander   the first one
19:33   Darkapprentice77   kickert may be facing a ban for that
19:33   Nuppiz   good
19:33   Cynon   Considering their circuits I would argue that the latter could be called that too...
19:33   Nuppiz   that's the second time in a row a ZimSport has taken out one of my cars
19:33   Salamander   cynon yeah lol
19:36   Nuppiz   and here, gentlemen, you see basically the same things that happen after each LifeGP/IFRC race
19:37   Darkapprentice77   i may introduce a team order thing where i basically add weight to carlton's car if that's what you want salamander
19:37   Salamander   maybe
19:37   Darkapprentice77   fastest lap: phoenix mcallister 2:50.984
19:38   Salamander   if it wasnt for the time jenkins lost earlier on because of carlton being a douche
19:38   Salamander   he might've still held maddock off
19:38   Nuppiz   lovely archiving method there
19:38   Nuppiz   just everything in the same folder
19:38   Darkapprentice77   what happened to jenkins on the last lap? had a huge lead then lost it
19:38   Darkapprentice77   yea lol
19:38   Salamander   no idea
19:38   Nuppiz   gearbox?
19:39   Salamander   im blaming carlton anyway
19:39   Nuppiz   not impossible considering that the F1C AI sometimes glitches in so that the cars don't tpit to retire despite a gearbox failure
19:39   Salamander   its clearly all his fault

Fastest lap: Phoenix McAllister 2:50.984

[DemocalypseNow]

So, basically, IBR are extremely Heidfeldesque in the RTCC. How strange. We're just a perfectly average, quiet team here.

Does this mean I can blame the Lancia marque for inflicting the deep psychological trauma that makes the team principal such a trainwreck?

[Nuppiz]

Meanwhile, it looks like I won't be sacking only one, but two drivers before 2016.

Do you have a driver that as ever actually won something on your book Nupe?* Because when I think about it, I couldn't name a single one
*ROTR and ROTY don't count!

[Salamander]

If anyone wants to enter a new driver in a winning car, now is an excellent time to do so because I'm sacking Ryan Carlton after this weekend.

[Gerudo Dragon]

Peter Kickert and Nathan Nurmester will be banned for one weekend for both being involved in an incredibly stupid incident in Race 1.

Not really, no. The best results so far are couple of podiums by Anu Võsu in F1RDS and Niko Nurminen's sole podium in F1RGP2C. That and Thomas Nurmester's 5th in a lousy Osella in 1980.

If anyone wants to enter a new driver in a winning car, now is an excellent time to do so because I'm sacking Ryan Carlton after this weekend.

And as Nurmester is banned for the next race, I'm interested in hiring Carlton as his replacement.

Italian driver Natalia Valenti is interested in the Twinings BMW drive.

I was hoping to get someone who isn't already involved in the series, but if no-one else shows any interest before the next race, she'll get the drive.

Also you might want to have words with Rafael Modena; he was leading heading into the final lap.

[the Masked Lapwing]

Rather than find a replacement for Kickert, ZimSport are going to pull the plug on this season and prepare for 2016 instead.

[TomWazzleshaw]

Rather than find a replacement for Kickert, ZimSport are going to pull the plug on this season and prepare for 2016 instead.

Or, you can take on Tom Douglas for one weekend as Douglas-Cliff Racing prepares to become a ZimSport satellite team for 2016

Nah. Kickert's got an F1RSTC campaign to focus on, and I estimate it's about this time that Zimmer returns to the F1RWRS.

22:55   Darkapprentice77   ready for a start...
22:55   Salamander   its not perfect but personally i prefer it
22:56   Eurobrun   I guess so, but I am really confused by the whole system and as a result Autodynamics is shite
22:56   Salamander   i should probably pause this steam download while im watching this
22:56   Salamander   WHAT THE HELL MADDOCK
22:57   Salamander   hopefully this will turn out to be another case of JENKINSWINSLOL
22:58   Eurobrun   My RTCC team is the most boring thing in the history of humanity
22:58   Salamander   which team is yours anyway?
22:59   Eurobrun   The team with the Petronas cars. Can't remember the name lol
22:59   Salamander   hell yes
23:00   Salamander   jenkins 2nd
23:00   Salamander   cfr motorsports?
23:00   Salamander   the guys holding up aeroracing?
23:00   Eurobrun   Yeah i think
23:01   Salamander   remind me to buy your drivers a drink after this
23:01   Salamander   also lol carlton is about as terrible as nurmovitsch
23:01   Salamander   serves him right
23:01   Wizzie   Yay, Douglas isn't trolling around the back of the field
23:02   Salamander   
23:02   Salamander   valenti is the best teammate
23:02   Salamander   sacking carlton for her was the best decision ever
23:02      *** Eurobrun quit (Quit: http://www.mibbit.com ajax IRC Client)

23:04   Salamander   wow
23:04   Salamander   jenkins is just gone
23:04   Wizzie   Logjam behind McAllister, I see?
23:04   Salamander   looks like
23:05   Wizzie   Now, how long will it take for something to break on Douglas's car?
23:05   Salamander   all aboard the voeckler train
23:06   Wizzie   Douglas is actually doing fairly well for once... for a washed-up has been in a old Cavalier, that is
23:07   Salamander   yeah actually he is
23:07   Salamander   how about that
23:07   Salamander   valenti needs to get a move on...
23:07   Salamander   oh god
23:07   Salamander   where did tyryn come from
23:08   Salamander   there
23:08   Salamander   finally valenti gets past megone
23:08   RealRacingRoots   Million dollar question, right there.
23:08   Wizzie   I've only just realised that is indeed the original GP4 version of Suzuka
23:09   Salamander   now i need modena to hold up the aeroracings long enough for valenti to catch back up and screw with them some more
23:09   Wizzie   I've been so used to using season pack tracks for my GP4 mods that I've completely forgotten what the original tracks look like
23:10   Salamander   and jenkins is gone again
23:10   Salamander   and valenti past maddock
23:10   Salamander   wow
23:10   Wizzie   RRR, did you add the Gruen Beer logos onto the JLD Saleen?
23:10   Salamander   so ive gone from having the least helpful teammate in the second car to the most helpful
23:10   RealRacingRoots   I will Wizzie.
23:11   RealRacingRoots   I'm using Cy's banner generator right now to make the banners for the videos
23:11   RealRacingRoots   But It would take me 10 mins to add the logos.
23:11   Wizzie   Ah, ok
23:11   Wizzie   Wait, since when did Douglas score points in the RTCC?
23:12   Salamander   since points go down to 15th?
23:12   Salamander   valenti 4th, she really like kobayashi-ing people at the hairpin
23:12   Salamander   likes
23:12      *** MinardiFan joined #F1Rejects
23:13   Wizzie   Wait, how the hell is McAllister 3rd?
23:13   Wizzie   He was nowhere like five minutes ago
23:13   Salamander   yeah
23:13   Salamander   then he woke up and passed maddock
23:13   Salamander   and has been pretty decent
23:13   Salamander   and now maddock is crap
23:13   Salamander   which is fine by me
23:13   Wizzie   Is Douglas still running just outside the top 10?
23:14   Salamander   although saying that now i think hes catching valenti...
23:14   Salamander   i think douglas in inside the top 10 now
23:14   Salamander   oh wait
23:14   Salamander   mcallister is crap again
23:14   Wizzie   Inside the top 10? Even better!
23:14   Salamander   i think
23:14   Salamander   hes challenging daddy voeckler at any rate
23:15   Salamander   valenti 2nd
23:16   Salamander   yeah douglas is 10th
23:16   Salamander   oh god maddock is all over valenti
23:17   Salamander   aw crap
23:17   Salamander   oh no valenti's going backwards
23:18   Salamander   and holy shite douglas is kicking ass today
23:19   Wizzie   The boy's on it today
23:19   Salamander   making up for his failure here in 1998 i think
23:19   Salamander   1998?
23:19   Salamander   1997 rather
23:19   Wizzie   Maybe the race at Road America pissed him off so much that he had to take out his frustrations on the track
23:19   Salamander   
23:19   Wizzie   And show those young whippersnappers how to drive properly
23:20   Salamander   wow
23:21   Salamander   valenti is not letting mcallister through
23:21   Salamander   i thought for sure he had her then
23:21   Wizzie   I think Maddock has leapfrogged the lot of them
23:21   Salamander   yeah he did quite a bit ago
23:21   Salamander   oh damn
23:21   Wizzie   Meanwhile, Douglas continues to be a boss in the upper-midfield. Why can't he drive like this more often?
23:22   Salamander   mcallisters fallen asleep again and tyryn got through
23:22   Salamander   douglas is down to 11th but hes still being pretty awesome
23:22   Salamander   dont think maddocks catching jenkins today
23:22   Salamander   not unless his car falls apart on the last lap like in spa
23:23   Salamander   OH NOOOOOO
23:23   Salamander   DOUGLAS
23:23   Wizzie   NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
23:23   Salamander   wait, is valenti catching maddock again
23:23   Wizzie   That's more heartbreaking than any MRT retirement ever will be
23:24   Salamander   yeah
23:24   Salamander   and yes i think valenti is catching maddock
23:24   Salamander   2 laps left
23:24   Salamander   carlton 14th
23:24   Salamander   guess he decided to be good all of a sudden
23:25   Salamander   oh no
23:25   Salamander   valentis dropped back
23:25   Salamander   
23:26   Salamander   what the hell has happened to modena
23:26   Salamander   hes dropped like a rock
23:27   Salamander   JENKINSWINSLOL
23:28   Darkapprentice77   wow that was dominant
23:28   Darkapprentice77   fastest lap: valenti 2:20.546
23:28   Salamander   
23:28   RealRacingRoots   So we got JENKINSWINSLOL and DAGNALLWINSLOL
23:28   RealRacingRoots   oh dear
23:28   Wizzie   What broke on Douglas's car?
23:29   Salamander   well, in rtcc, its either JENKINSWINSLOL or MADDOCKWINSLOL
23:29   Salamander   obviously i prefer the former
23:30   Salamander   carlton dropped out of the points what a surprise
23:30   Wizzie   Brake failure at 130R... shite, that must have been scary for Ol' Tom
23:30   Salamander   well considering he stopped it soon after im guessing he sussed it before then
23:30   Darkapprentice77   well valenti did what twinings wanted her to do
23:30   Salamander   yup
23:30   Salamander   excellent job by her
23:32   Wizzie   You know, I wouldn't mind if the calender had different formats for some rounds next year
23:32   Salamander   yeah that might be a good idea actually
23:32   Salamander   kinda like with samster's alternate btcc
23:33   Darkapprentice77   you mean like having more than two races in a round?
23:33   Wizzie   Yeah. I mean Knockhill would be perfect for a three-race round where the grid for races 2 and 3 are decided by race results of the previous race

23:51   Salamander   and nurmovitsch chucks it off the road
23:51   Salamander   and still emerges ahead of carlton
23:51   Salamander   
23:51      *** QQ quit (Quit: http://www.mibbit.com ajax IRC Client)
23:52   Wizzie   And Douglas has lost another spot
23:52   Salamander   its like the nurminens cant figure out which of them is more rubbish
23:52   RealRacingRoots   I'm putting the Gruen Beer logos between the door and the rear engine cover, on the top
23:52   Salamander   come on rossini
23:52   Wizzie   Sounds good RRR

23:55   Salamander   FOR THE LOVE OF GOD
23:55   Salamander   DAMMIT
23:57   Salamander   douglas is hanging on to that pack fairly well...
23:57   Salamander   piss
23:57   Salamander   mcallisters got past valenti as well
23:57   Salamander   here comes jenkins though...
23:57   Salamander   last lap
23:58   Salamander   and damn maddock is slow
23:58   Salamander   mcallister and valenti have caught up
23:58   Salamander   goddammit jenkins
23:58   Salamander   the door was wide open there
23:58   Salamander   PISS
23:59   Salamander   not complaining about that
23:59   Salamander   jenkins blatantly threw that away
23:59   Salamander   im not even complaining about valenti passing him
23:59   Salamander   that was terrible from jenkins
23:59   Salamander   that was his race to win
23:59   Salamander   maddock left the door wide open
23:59   Salamander   but no
23:59   Salamander   
00:00   Darkapprentice77   wow, first to last in 2 laps for jenkins
00:00   RealRacingRoots   Updated the livery Wizzie
00:00   Darkapprentice77   well not last but 4th
00:00   Salamander   he still couldve won though
00:00   Salamander   that was the worst part
00:00   Wizzie   Hmm... points for Douglas. Could have been so much better after Qualifying though
00:00   Salamander   yeah shame that
00:01   Darkapprentice77   fastest lap valenti 2:22.604
00:01   Salamander   again
00:02   Wizzie   Sad thing is P12 is still probably his best result all year
00:02   Salamander   damn shes pretty good
00:02   Salamander   i think that means maddock retakes the championship lead
00:02   Salamander   but by 1 poinr
00:02   Salamander   point
00:03   MinardiFan   Woohoo! More points for Garry Jones
00:03      *** captain_getz joined #F1Rejects
00:03   Darkapprentice77   well IIRC there were meant to be points given for fastest laps and poles
00:03   Salamander   but neither jenkins nor maddock took any of those today
00:04   Wizzie   Overall, I'm happy with Tom's performance today
00:04   Wizzie   Can't want to see what he does when he gets his hands on a ZimSport Vectra next year
00:04   Salamander   cant wait for jenkins to decide he wants to win again

Twinings is very pleased with Natalia Valenti's performance, and would like to resign her for 2016.

An Alitalia managed driver isn't going to sign up for a full season right away. She might end up at IBR for 2016, she might end up at BMW. We'll have to see later in the season...

There's only one more round left, but sure. The offer's on the table, anyway.

Can someone confirm this? If its next week i'll be able to squeeze in a couple of my drivers..

can I upgrade my car please?

No. Pasta decided that the upgrade system would be scrapped. It may return in 2016 though.

[DemocalypseNow]

Is there no way to port in an Alfa 156 to the mod? The 155 is a bit old even by the standards of all the cars around it...

[takagi_for_the_win]

God, Luis is so poor in the race it's not even funny Still, I'm signing him up for 2016, Strass-Cahn can go bathplug himself

Well I can only particpiate in the final race of the season, since my main drivers would have 2016 packed by a rallycross series.

I know that one of the teams offered to let my guys use their Vectras in the final race just to get some experience. Who was that and does that deal still stand?

Actually, that was Wizzie volunteering TMLW's cars.

Also, you don't have to use the same drivers as in your rallycross team.

[takagi_for_the_win]

If you want mate, I'll run your man in place of Strass-Cahn for the last race Its an 850 he'll be running I believe, so he won't win, but it'll be good to see what he can do under no pressure

[Nuppiz]

Well, this fits perfectly into my plan of completely overhauling my RTCC entry next season...

[CaptainGetz12]

If you want mate, I'll run your man in place of Strass-Cahn for the last race Its an 850 he'll be running I believe, so he won't win, but it'll be good to see what he can do under no pressure

I'll take that offer then.

I'll let my second driver Michael Rohnstock take that spot for the last race as a warm up for the rallycross series

Though if I'm going by the F1alternate page, Strass-Cahn was driving a peugeot 405. Is that the one Vic would be using or are you switching the cars up?

Um, I'd rather Pereira ran the 850, so your man will be running in the 405
