That's not the iRacing system at all. 

Hello everyone. I rarely speak in this forum but today I feel like it. And I will talk about my experience.

- Philips Island: + Thecrivi throws me to the ground when I was climbing positions.
                          + In the qualifying session there are pilots going in the opposite direction to obtain better performance of the tires.

- Johor: + In the first round Manu (this person repeats this phrase in the chat two and three times, "NO HEROES IN FIRST CORNER") he throws me to the ground leaning on me to take the curve when he wants to overtake me.

- Le Mans: +22 pilots on the grid. In the first exit four pilots skip the exit. I start on the pole and in the second lap I kept the first position and Manu proposes the restart of the race for the first time. The result of the vote is negative.
                  + As Manu does not like the result of the vote, he proposes again a vote that is favorable to his teammates. The race restarts and my difference of 10 seconds spoils me with the second position.
                  + Jorge Sprinter "Strike". In the second exit I make a good start again and the youtuber lord Jorge Sprinter in the first corner of the first round hits Ludo from behind and Ludo's bike hits me and I go to the ground.
                  + In the qualifying session there are pilots going in the opposite direction to obtain better performance of the tires.

When has a race been restarted before? When?? For this I train during the week? No. I'm going to abandon this championship.

-I refuse to train a week working on setup to get ahead as if I were a wall in the middle of the curve so that they lean on me. And above you disrespect because they are not even able to wait for the pilot who have thrown to the ground and move forward as if nothing had happened.
-I refuse to train a week working on setup to restart the fence when someone is interested or teammates. If you skip the exit you fuck and you meet the penalty. And I do not care if you call yourself Manu, Piboso or whatever.
-I refuse to train for a week working on setup to see how other riders laugh at one coming out of the pits to get better rubber performance.
-I refuse to train for a week working on setup to see how other riders cut into the corners, reaching better times in some sectors.

Good luck to everyone with the championship.

PS: GPBikes is a simulator and requires greater involvement that requires more concentration, responsibility and training time. If you do not want to get involved please turn off your PC and turn on your console.

In regards to the restart.  What is more unfair?...  That you're good start was taken away after all the preparations you made.  OR that multiple riders, who made the same preparations, were hit with an invalid jump start from their bikes rolling on the grid outside of their control and got no shot at the race at all?  It's no contest.

I'm sorry that you've been taken out multiple times, I hope you find enjoyment in something other than purely results and will continue in the championship.

I would hate to see a grid spot go to waste for this.

Not a fan of region splitting. I want to race people of similar skill, location isn't important. Besides splitting by region you would have 5 players in the Americas race and more than a server could handle in the European race.  The current solution isn't perfect but it's pretty solid for the time being.

Mclaren Atlas is free and can read from a CSV file. I've been able to prune down your CSV format manually and it works great. Is there any chance I could get you to change output format to be more friendly for me? Or allow custom formatting?

All I really need is a time stamp (HH:MM:SS.000)to be added at the beginning of each row of data. And Atlas doesn't play well with the Brake (F) formatting. I have to change those to BrakeF manually.

Would I be correct to assume all the info available is being logged and any request for additional data need to be made to PiBoSo?

Do servers allow spectating?  Connecting to the server without taking up a grid space and not sending any data to the server. Just to view...

I did 22 laps last night too, more crashes than in the race. Didn't notice it. Maybe once or twice but not as bad as in the race. Didn't have a chance to review telemetry to see if anything changed. Was hoping for a blatant failure anyways. Couldn't tell if it was from the bumps on Johor or not.

I will do a longer run tonight with telemetry on to see what I can learn. Although tire info isn't available in telemetry anyways. During the race was the first time I saw it. Is it track specific? Only happen online?

Well that is another example of how much ping relates to position on track.
Thanks to both livestream recordings we can see what a difference it makes.
In Mark's video he was obviously taken out (I was watching live) but from Didiet's video, not close enough to affect Mark at all.

Yea. It's unfortunate. I feel like he could have managed the situation better, it's fine though I ended up thrid anyways, which was about the best I could hope for.

A high ping has nothing to do with your decision to divebomb me after I rode by as you were off track.

My aplogize for Mark if you feel that I hit you on lap 2 in the last corner. But I think I event didn't touch you
You can watch my streaming in my YT channel. Thank.

Don't know what you expected to happen riding anywhere near another rider with a ping of 500.  I streamed the race too.  You may want to work on your understanding of online racing and ping.

I will be streaming the early race from my perspective.

It's a difficult decision, but...

I'm resigning from organizing Moto2 Cup.

Too much things changed from signing up to starting the 1st race and I wasn't able to control that. I see many people weren't happy about some things with this championship.

Also, I'm not able to host any server what can cause another difficulty as I can't inform if server is up.

If I caused you're mad in any way - I'm sorry.


PS: Results from Phillip Island will be uploaded asap.

Why in the world would you stop?  It was a smashing success all around.  There is always room for improvement, just make some improvements and move on.  I would be really disappointed to see this championship fall by the wayside after having so much interest.  I hope you rethink you decision after sleeping.  Looking forwards to the rest of the series.
