Congratulations to Brain on a comprehensive WIN, and to SilverStreak for second and to Mardonius for third. Literally `Chicane on the Brain`.
Changes at the top of the Wenger Championship, with Skills taking the overall lead with 100 points from 2fast in second. Is the Sultan costing 2fast points? Well done Skills on yet more fantastic driving.
The Up-N-Atom most podiums award is still headed by 2fast, with 2 wins and 1 third place.
Congratulations again to Brain on this week's Taco-Bomb fastest lap, making him the sixth person contending for the Taco-Bomb Rotten Vagina of 2018.
Also, last night was the 1st round of the Sultan Sports Spectacular, our mini-sports car championship over 5 rounds. Now headed by Brain after his win.
It's all taking shape!
NEXT WEEK, MAR 9:
Sunset Cove in Muscles. Round 7 of the championship and Round 2-out-of-5 of the Cluckin' Bell "Taste The Cock" Muscle Showdown, currently headed by 2fast.
Thanks again for some amazing racing, and see you next week!

Gutted. Lagged out of qualifying and started back of the grid, lost 30 seconds at start on top of that through miscommunication, managed to work my way up to 3rd... lagged out again.
Someone post the results and I'll update the championship standings for you guys tomorrow. Cheers.

Sorry you lagged out Jenkii. Thanks for putting this event together and keeping up with the standings. Cheers That's why it's best you host the event, Grassy, as I knew something like this could happen, and I don't want to be responsible for the event every Friday. I'm continuously being penalised because of network problems and I'm seriously fed up with it, especially as I was right on the pace last night. I'll do the stats in the background for you guys, no problems.

KEEP YOUR HEAD UP JENKIII.. YES YOU LAGGED OUT BUT WE HAD A DECENT WEEK OF RACING TOGETHER (EXCEPT FOR 1 NIGHT I THINK) AND PREPARING FOR THE EVENT. YOU HAVE GOTTEN TONS BETTER ON THIS TRACK AND UNTIL LAST NIGHT BEFORE THE EVENT YOU WAS AHEAD OF ME. (NOT THAT IM FAST) BUT WE ARE PRETTY MUCH EVEN STEVENS AND THERES NO NEED TO GET DOWN ON YOURSELF FOR LAGGING OUT. CHEERS

I don't know what to say... I have network issues which are affecting my enjoyment, performance and results. Don't worry, I'll carry on updating the OP and stats, whatever, as I like that sort of thing. The ten laps I managed to complete last night were excellent, with really close and competitive racing. So frustrating.

Yes, I feel your pain Jenkiii. The many connection problems I used to have were the original reason I quit GTA for more than a year. Connection issues are infuriating and most often there is no recourse for us. Wish I could help in some way but the only thing which fixed my issues was getting a new router and setting it up so my NAT would always be OPEN.

Don't worry about it Brain, thanks man, but this isn't a straightforward issue of opening ports or getting an open NAT type - I've had that for years, and once you've done it you shouldn't need to configure anything again. This is a 'disconnect from Xbox Live' issue, kicking me back to single player. It could be the Xbox Live service in Brazil, or the physical wires in the street, or even high latency. When you see lag on your screen it's because network data takes a long time to make the round-trip. You can measure this using ping or tracert, but that's what high latency essentially is - data taking too long to go all the way round and back to your Xbox. Who knows, maybe that high latency also affects my connection to Xbox Live.
I'm the oldest guy in the crew and not the fastest on the grid, and the last thing I need is lag, disconnects and back-of-the-grid crap every time I play. Sorry guys.

Got word from my boss yesterday that we're staying open an extra hour on friday and saturday nights now that winter is pretty much over. So I won't even be getting home until 10:30-11. I don't think I'll be able to do this event anymore.

Maybe we could change the day. I always liked events on Tuesdays.

Well I can do any other day pretty much but it's really not necessary to change it just for me. Friday is a good night to run it because you can get a week of practice in beforehand. But hey, if you do decide to change it, I'm back in.

I have no issues with changing the day.

I'm really downbeat about the championship now so you guys choose whatever's best for you. Tuesday is not so good for me due to being 2-4 hours ahead of you, but if this helps Brain in his conquest for the title, go for it.
