Re: Welcome to 2012
Dave I will be there.
Shawnster, are you going my way? 
I would like to include a stock Mega G race but I like the looks of the open wheeler. F1/Indy cars for me.  |

Results for Racing at Daves
Here's the Results. We tried the Mega G out for ease of driving and fun. The open wheeler was quick and easy for us all. the SWB and LWB cars with heavier bodies were a bit trickier to drive. We will investigate more before we make any decisions to phase out the Turbos for Mega G. Well new sets aren't Turbos any more so can't expect new racers to buy a non existent car from the shops...

Re: Welcome to 2012
Shawnster Thanks for the results. Interesting reading. In the mega G race where we used a short wheel based "turbo" body we were all a bit quicker than the actual turbos on that lane. The long wheel base LEMANS Peugeot on blue wasn't bad but I did like the open wheeler on the white lane. I would love to race them at your place with the volts cranked up a bit. Should look good flying around your track. 
BTW I don't really mind that you didn't high light my 54 laps on white lane in the Super G= but I would like to point out that it was the best that anyone did on any lane for the day. |

Re: Welcome to 2012
Sorry Geoff, I didn't highlight the correct laps you did as the highest. maybe you can write me a macro that works. Lets try the Mega G open wheelers on 19V or so. that would sort out the hacks and the drivers.

Re: Welcome to 2012
Shawn, apology accepted. As for the macro I was right in there until you said that it had to work. Excel macro are a bit hit and miss. Sometimes they work fine, other times not so good. I think it is more fun when it is your mistake.
