Indianapolis 500 Time Trials - Schedule (May 15th)

Raul Jereb wrote:: What is being "bumped"? Pardon my French

When the field is filled to 33 cars, and a faster qualifier bumps someone from the field.

A couple of items to reiterate before Time Trials begin:

- The pit exit rule only applies to the race itself, so you won't need to stay on the apron until you exit turn 2.

- Cars can be parked on the pit lane to save time, but you may only proceed to the track when called upon by an admin.

No worries. We don't expect everyone to have a PhD in "Indyology" :papy:

Another thing i want to add. When you enter the server DO NOT type Hi/Hello/Hola/Bonjour or and form of greeting as someone may be on a qualifying run.

If no one is on a qualifying run, then feel free to say the usual hello :hello:

I would not chat for any reason in qual. You may be 20 to 30 sec delayed and not see someone on track. I would hate to see you penalized for a chat mistake. Just don't do it.

good luck guys!!! :top:

no sound at the broadcast at the moment...

Martin Lacina just chatted while Jason was doing his Q laps...gg dude!

Pascal L if you enter the server again before your scheduled qual time you will be banned from the race.

Guest

Split second power cut just long enough to reset router as I was about to get the green Sad

Unlikely to finish other races I've got tonight in time to do a run so looks like I'm out of the 500.

LOL jumped on server an hour prior to what I thought my time was and Richard called me to the track..

Not my best runs but hopefully will put me on the grid..

Using bumper cam here is hurting me...but I can't do cockpit view with my small monitor..

Man, the pressure got to me. All my laps were waaaay too slow for my own standards. Can do so much better than that.

Oh well, it is only qualifying. Should be in the field at least.

Request for second run if space allows...it is Pascal than me at the bottom...

I would like to go on a second attemp too. A bit unfortunate. But i did only 3 or 4 laps before on the whole test week.

See you around 23:20?

I took it too easy on my first lap and I think that the tyres were not hot enough on the second lap but back up to speed for laps 3 and 4.
Its great to be able to watch your lap on youtube after you have finished your run. :top:

I don't like that cars are running with the low radiator setting and smoking on the straights. :grrr:

You can only run again if you get bumped.

wanne try it agian very odd cant get in the 45.7s with same setup car feels weird
( i leave it this way)

or is it my head that is in mad max mode today lol!

can I run again please guys

Well that was weird ... when I was on my out lap I suddenly got the feeling that I had loaded the wrong setup and had no fuel to complete the 4th lap :doh:

I was cursing all around during laps 1 and 2 and almost waved it off during lap 2, then realized yes I had the fuel and pushed the car to save the run What a Face

My run was okay. First could have been a tad bit quicker, but I lacked the confidence to floor it earlier. Lap two was quicker than expected, on lap three, I had some trouble at turn 3, which slowed me down, and a near-perfect lap four. I think, that should be it Smile

Im satisfied with my run, 2nd lap should have been a tenth quicker to make it on the front row but it's very difficult with my Eagle72 and current setup. Anyway nice show guys and thx for great organization once again! :top:

ALL DRIVERS WHO DIDN'T COMPLETE RUNS, MAKE YOUR WAY TO THE SERVER.

Fitch you -itch :-)

Anyone who is on the last row, enter the server as you could get bumped

Last Row:
James Knowles
Pascal Mikula
Claudio Navonne
