Default Rfactor, Caterham World Champs

Thought I would take the chance to big myself up a bit as I am currently 2nd in the World in the Caterham World Championships +
I am only 2nd to the guy who did the physics for the mod as well & honestly cannot believe I am so highly placed. Last time the Caterham mod was the RSC World Champs I finished 11th, Although chuffed with that I wanted a top ten really. I was 4th when I looked Saturday & thought to myself I could improve on a few of my times & maybe get 3rd. I just checked & I am kin 2nd
Basically the Champs are held on 5 different tracks hosted on a RSC server, All your lap times & race results are logged back to RSC & a table is set up. You can go on the server at any time & set your times/race etc & then after a certaain period the Champs end & places are stated.
I am expecting the 3rd & 4th placed drivers to have a go at my times over the next few days & things will shuffle about until the end. I know I can improve on my times on 2 out of the 5 tracks so I'll be working on that until the Champs end.
Anyway just chuffed to be still competing at my ripe old age
2nd in the World who'd have thought it



Here is the link, Hope it works for you without having to log in, Should do.

Nice one Really good going
I played rfactor briefly but I'm absolutely shocking at racing sims like that and I knew I didn't have the time to devote to improving. So I know it's impressive stuff

Second place? That's pathetic dude - must try harder

Seriously though, that's waaaay cool. It must feel really good to know you're better than so many other people at stuff like that.

As much as I enjoy it, I'm a bit of a duffer when it comes to gaming so I am in awe of people like you who are so good. Well done mate

Reality hits home as the Aliens come out to play
(Aliens = Sim name for the Uber fast Dudes )
I've dropped down to 7th now which is much more realistic but I remember the time when I Was 2nd in the World .
It'll teach me to rest on my Laural's though as all I have been doing lately is playing my new account on BF2. Starting a new account on BF2 is Awesome fun, Ganking high rankers as a Nub is Hilarious & I have already been banned from 3 servers in 7 hours of play
I've been proper busy lately & it's great to come back home & just fire up BF2 or RF & lose a few hours & forget about everything
I've got a clear 3 days of fun & messing ahead of me though & after this week I am damn sure I am going to make the most of it.
