Quote (http://www.triple7racing.net/images/stories/T7R_News/moe.jpg)Hello Racers! The 24 Hours of Le Mans (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/24_Hours_of_Le_Mans) are one of the most famous races in the real world, and it's one of the biggest honors to drive there. So what has this to do with Triple 7 Racing? Well, read the full story... This weekend, will be the first highlight of the new year in Live For Speed, it's the weekend of the 24 hours of Aston Grand Prix, a track placed in the middle of England within a nice countryside full of forest and lig. . . That will be fun ;) and a sleepless night :laughing7: Title: Re: 24 hours Post by: nikimere on January 12, 2007, 12:46:42 am best of luck guys!

"We will have intensive live TV coverage of the biggest race of the season. Of course, our official partners gamer-FM with their very own Mika Radmer will cover most of the race. Additionally, we will be live on Serbian TV Sunday morning when gamer-FM is off air. gamer-FM will start coverage with pre race reports at 15:00 CET on Saturday and will stay live until 23:00 CET. They will pick up coverage again at 13:00 CET on Sunday and stay with us until the finish and do some after race coverage as well. Check out their website to find out all the detail: gamer-FM Announcement The Sunday morning coverage will be done by AutoPlus TV, a Serbian TV station available via digital satellite in the TotalTV-Package. Milos 'Misko' Miljkovic from Cyber Racing will be on the mikrophone for them, together with Nenad Markovic. gamer-FM coverage will be in English, AutoPlus TV coverage in Serbian." So we gonna be TV stars soon :laughing7: Title: Re: 24 hours Post by: Bismarck on January 12, 2007, 08:08:22 pm Good luck guys. I will have a look at gamer.fm
Just reach the finish. That's the most important thing for the most 24h races. :icon_thumleft: You have bad luck, that no one of your opponents in front of you will drop down, because of technical failures. But on the other side, you also wont loose because of technical failures. :) Don't forget to make a 360°-rotation at the track at kilometre 777. ;) Title: Re: 24 hours Post by: Basem on January 12, 2007, 08:27:59 pm Hey Bismarck,
Just for you, at Kilometer 777, I will do a triple burnout :laughing7: Just keep Jan off my back once it is done, because he's not gona be happy :icon_tongue: Basem Title: Re: 24 hours Post by: BBO on January 14, 2007, 04:17:42 pm What an unlucky race for Triple 7 Racing.
We had too many disconnections (5 or 6 times I think) We lost a lot of places in the night and during the last hours with that. Anyway it was an interesting event. Thx to all our drivers and to the other Teams for the great racing . :icon_thumleft: Next time will fight back (Hopefully the god of internet lines will then be a bit more gracious to us.) ;) Cya there Title: Re: 24 hours Post by: three_jump on January 14, 2007, 04:55:07 pm i counted:
- 5 disconnects - 1 laggy connection which didn't allow charles to drive the first two stints (moe admins were asking to leave him after 5 laps) - 1 pc freeze - 1 big crash due lfs spectator still running (a gavin had to emergency join after a dc) - pedal problem, resulting in flat spots, crash and slow laps Title: Re: 24 hours Post by: Exodus on January 14, 2007, 05:03:53 pm Yup we had our stunning luck yet again.
When the racing did happen was good fun and had some nice driving with the other teams! Congrats all for your support and filling in for my connection problems ;) Title: Re: 24 hours Post by: BBO on January 14, 2007, 05:28:28 pm .. (a gavin had to emergency join after a dc) :laughing7: And don't forget (a Bernd had also an emergency join after a Gavin disconnected ) ;) Well can only be better next time/season Title: Re: 24 hours Post by: three_jump on January 14, 2007, 05:48:50 pm just adding that I'm out for the rest of the season, charles is now the responsible guy for moe :)
Uni will keep me busy for the next two month, so don't expect me to see me much :( Title: Re: 24 hours Post by: Bismarck on January 14, 2007, 07:02:21 pm Thats really bad luck, but you finished it and you gained experience from your first 24h race. And finally you were not last! So Congratz to everyone. :notworthy:
Maybe next year there are changing daylight-, night- and light-effects part of LFS, so the immersion gets more intensive. Title: Re: 24 hours Post by: Basem on January 14, 2007, 08:52:56 pm Hey guys,
I think despite the bad luck we had, we still managed to do great, and the team spirit really showed during the 24 hour event. I would like to thank all drivers for their time and patience, as this was not an easy one :) Basem |
