Why do I always get fastest Laps and still lose?
Because your car is quick but not fast.
WTF?

I've had cars in my custom setting tests that are quick, the the effects of tire wear effecting them far more then other cars, which remain consistent.
However these races Jonzu is doing are 3 lap races with negligible fuel loss and tire wear if any.

So how can I lose so badly?

I think you start out leading the first lap, then you slip behind during laps 2 and 3. Since the cars ahead of you don't have fresh tires and full gas during laps 2 and 3, you get fastest lap.

Sorry guys, I needed little break but I edited the schedule:
Week 10 - France (Europe) W. 090901
Week 12 - Mali (Africa)
Week 13 - Grenada (America)
blah blah...

090901 · « **Reply #227 on:** March 22, 2010, 04:32:02 PM »

Where is week 11?

somestrangeguy · « **Reply #228 on:** March 22, 2010, 06:21:23 PM »

He appearently cant make it that week, so week 11 is changed to 12.

Finally! Race of Mali!

Who want's the Final?

RedSawn · « **Reply #231 on:** April 09, 2010, 07:09:37 AM »

Awesome,. Yes, let's have those finals.
Looking at the average speeds.. I was the slowest of the winners by far, the fastest lap was much slower in my heat, and it's apparent that the other heats had close podium finishers for a 40 second race.

As such.. hoping I understand the finals system enough (1st and 2nd through) ... I'll predict the outcome.
1st 090901
2nd Jack Daniels
3rd Jonzu
4th SSG
5th Me
6th Temi

Okay! Time for Final!

RedSawn · « **Reply #233 on:** April 11, 2010, 11:07:39 AM »

Dah, got my predictions all wrong. However, everyone stayed within their own heat. (As in, the two people of a heat finished distinctively together)

Looking at the results, while people have probably already figured it out, that should be the final nail in the coffin that people's cars are differently matched.

If they were evenly matched then me and Temi wouldn't be over 12 seconds behind.. in a 40 second race.
Same, but less so for Jack and 090901.

I've been running 10 kilo races for ages (Usually lasts around 2 minutes) , balancing my cars, and at the most, last place is behind by 8 seconds.
6% of a 19~24 lap race slower... rather then over 34% in 3 laps.

Jonzu95 · « **Reply #234 on:** April 11, 2010, 11:31:18 AM »

You and Temi got stuck between the fence and boot.

RedSawn · « **Reply #235 on:** April 11, 2010, 01:01:16 PM »

Could of been a one off in this case but suspicions could be thrown over other races. And the fact the race was distinctly seperated at the finish by what heat the people were in.

5+ second gaps are pretty nuts for 40 seconds races, as I mentioned before, when the race has no faults (Like serious crashes)

EDIT: I think I was a bit skeptic. I looked through old results and found they were much better matched. It seems really weird still.. but eh.

NOOEZ! I was last in my heat!!
