Pre-race interview is up!

 

[_dray_]

Looks like i get to start it off! well i plan to do much better this season as i am starting to figure out setups and everything but guys are still just outright fast! lol ... look for Speed Syndicate to contend this season!......

This preseason race is kind of important for me because it gives me the chance to see where im really at with the rest of the drivers so im excited for the 2nd of may!!


Last season really let me know what i was doing wrong and what i needed to get better at! I learned and grew as a racer through the season and i am still! I also learned that what you see on your screen might not be what someone else sees on theirs so i wont be quick to say or assume anything and hope all you guys do to......you just never know with this game so wait, compare replays then decide...if you have an issue... but we once again have a great group of guys so it should be rare!

1. What are your expectations for the Season 7?
Keep in the Top 10 all season. Maybe as the season progresses I will try to shoot for Top 5's, but I am just not ready as of this moment. Looking forward to working with Patricio and seeing what I can learn from him and his expertise in this game to improve my speed as the season goes on in the Ruf.

2. How important is the pre-season race for you?
As important as any other race. Track time is the only way to get faster, so I'll go into Brands Hatch wanting to perform as well as I can.

3. What have you learned from your past season to PRL?
Not as much as I had hope to. Still working on improving my skills on the track and in the garage. Still driving too conservative and need to learn how to push the car properly.

1. My expectation aren't much. This being my first Project Cars league I am here to get experience of racing in a league in P.Cars. If by a miracle I end up towards the front in a race I will take full advantage of it. My main goal is too run some clean races and get the experience.

2. Pre-sale racing is great track time to get prepared for the season. However, I doubt I'll be at the preseason race as this is finals week at my school.

3. This is my Rookie Project Car season

1. What are your expectations for the Season 7?
Expectations for Season 7 are to race consistently with the Audi alongside teammate GameOfJobes to show how good the Audi can be so others hopefully venture out next Season (S8) to try other cars than just picking the easiest (McLaren). Also try to get a podium this season where I came close last season P4 at Sonoma.

2. How important is the pre-season race for you?
It's pretty important cause it'll show people potentially where they'll be standing going into the first race of the actual season. We'll also see whose gotten stronger or stayed strong with showing who may need more practice time.

3. What have you learned from your past season to PRL?
What I've learned is that after uninstalling PCars over a year ago and reinstalled it for last season to see if it was worth it which it was. I still had that consistency and could still be competitive sometimes when I didn't over think things, which ultimately surprised myself by doing well and hope to continue that consistency.

1. What are your expectations for the Season 7?
I expect tough competition judging from my one race I did a couple seasons ago. Plenty of very fast fellas in this league. Hope I can keep up.
2. How important is the pre-season race for you?
Well considering I didn't know I was put back in full time until yesterday and I didn't prepare for it at all. It is pretty important. And I will be working my tail off trying to get a quick setup in the practice session.
3. What have you learned from your past season to PRL?
ALWAYS BE CAUTIOUS! My first race with the league I was watching a car on the side of me going into the hairpin of Hockenheim and went straight on into a RUF. Gotta be quick in this league, not only with laptimes, but in your reactions. Also, never stop working on making your setup faster, until you are out of time. You can almost always get faster.

1. What are your expectations for the Season 7?
[ul]
[li]Honestly, I have none. I am very excited for the season and hope to do very well but several guys here are quite quick so it should be fun competition. [/li]
[/ul]
2. How important is the pre-season race for you?
[ul]
[li]For me, the pre-season race is a phenomenal opportunity to gauge where I will stand relative to the competition and set the stage moving forward to more optimistic, or maybe more realistic, goals for the season. [/li]

Hello Sports Fans!
And welcome to another exciting season of GT3 Racing with Pcars and PRL!

For 1st timers and returning racers, WELCOME! I will be yer host for season 7, my name is Mark or as the rest of the world knows me as Fifi (Fee Fee). I will explain how I got the nickname if asked.

For those that were here last season this will be old news, but for the new drivers this is how I do....

I will send out the "invite" around 7:50pm (depending on the wife) for all the drivers on the "full time" list.

At 8:10pm I will do another "invite" for those on the "full time" list.
If any full timer is going to be late please let me know day of race via the PSN message board this way I will not give up your slot!

At 8:30pm IF the field is not full I will then send out an "invite" to reserve/waiting list drivers. PLEASE have you car and livery ready before you jump in. I will send out ONLY ONE INVITE at the 8:30pm mark. Sorry but I too would like to get some laps in before the green flag. Also remember that you may not have a drive in the next race if the field is full, but hang in there we always have a few that don't make the whole season.

As far as mic chatter,
This league is not a chatty bunch. If you would like to talk to your teammate or friends it is advised the you open a party chat and then you can talk till yer blue in the face. It is very distracting to listen to someone yelling in the background/eating chips/or conversing with the streaming community.... You get the picture. If we get to quaili. and mics are still "hot" I WILL MUTE YOU, nothing personal. And YES it is in the rules.

I wish EVERYONE Good Luck and Clean Racing!!
Remember the stewards are always watching!!!

See at the track

Well I'm happy because the race went as planned and it was a full house, 16 of 16 drivers, it was very fun.

However I had a contact with Dray. I'm sorry but I thought that you would leave me space. I was half circuit behind you waiting for you to let me pass. I think you didn't see me, but be aware of the blue flags please. Nothing personal, I think we all have to be gentle when the blue flag appears, otherwise accidents can occur. Anyway I want to apologise with you Dray, because I didn't want to push you, we all are running our race, no matter if we are running on the first or the last place. We all want to avoid accidents and to achieve that we must have situational awareness all the time, specially in the starts, yellow and blue flags.
