Bean Machine 200 by @Dodge

Podium: Chewy, Snacks, Ally

  • Stock Sedans
  • 35 Laps
  • SS off, CU on
  • Pit Lane included

Remember, if you take someone out even by mistake, clean racing etiquette is to wait for them to pass before continuing. You don't have to stop, but you must pull to the side and slow down for them, even if it costs you several positions (after all, you cost the other person those positions by taking them out).

Breaking Point by @ScottyB

Podium: Fido, Skorpion, Chewy

  • Stock Stinger
  • 16 Laps
  • SS off, CU on
  • Pit Lane included

The track has no crossovers or overlaps, and not a lot of straight sections for clear overtaking besides the main straight. Timing will be vital for making a clean pass, but with so many corners and wide track for a lot of different race lines around nearly every corner, things are sure to get interesting.

I won't be hosting this weekend and I believe Snacks is away and unable to host as well, so there'll be no FDU this weekend. Anyone else is welcome to host in our place if they wish, just post here so people know :)

Yeah, I'll be away this weekend celebrating The Old Bag's Mrs. Snack's 50th Birthday.  Lmfao.

The following week will be the Croc's Division of BACCAR. (we don't have a track picked out yet, @Hatch)

The week after that we'll be back to a normal FDU playlist.

What's on the agenda this week, @Skorpion?

Really, really enjoy the long format jobs (especially the DMs) as they allow you the luxury to use different tactics and strategies than normal.  There's no real need to rush in and try to get some kills before the timer runs out.  You can stalk, sneak, hunt or play the waiting game, but the whole time you know someone else is probably doing the same to you. :lol:

Glad you asked @no_snacks. I got it all prepared and forgot to post :lol:

Cool.  Wasn't Grand Cru the DM for last time? (I wasn't there, so can't be sure)

It was, but there were only 4 of us so we didn't run it. Figured I'd save it for this month rather than just skip it.

I was really looking forward to EE this week.  At least I got to play a few minutes of each job. :)

I knew I was lagging bad when @Protocawl shot me through the roof from down in the wine trees.  My guess is I was standing still near the edge of the roof on his screen. 

During the race I hit @Fido_le_muet after he crashed on the 1st lap.  I'm pretty sure I didn't cause it, but you never know with the lag.

On thew 2nd lap I was having a nice battle with @DavidCore89 and Proto.  Then the lag kicked in again.  Missed the CP because of the crash and didn't realise until 2 minutes later.  I heard the race went for over an hour, so I'm pretty stoked I made the decision to bail at that point. :lol:  

Thanks for hosting, @Skorpion.  Here's the video of those incidents.

Mixed PL with some jobs by crew and randoms. I've played them all with other people in the crew that found them so they should be fun. It's looking like only a few of us, so we'll do a few adversary modes as well. Will only be a short PL.

If there are enough RSVPs before I put the PL together then I'll replace the adversary modes with combat jobs.

As you know, @Skorpion, I can't make it tonight.  I feel as though I've missed more FDUs than I've attended in the last several weeks. Hopefully that'll change in the coming weeks. :)

After missing a few weeks with a series of 50th birthdays, it's now my eldest daughter's 20th, so I'll be out to dinner tonight.  Hoping to see a good turnout tonight.  Wish I could be there.  People have to learn to schedule their birthdays around our playlists - selfish bastards. :angry:

Just a heads up.  Fun Down Under will be cancelled today.  Skorp is having net issues and I may or may not be online at the time.  Hopefully next week everything will be back on schedule.  :)

We have a handful of regular players each week, but we really need a few more RSVPs to make it worthwhile hosting.

I am going to try to join my Aussie friends this weekend.  The girlfriend is going to a concert with her mom so I will be home on a friday night by myself for the first time in quite a while.  If I can stay awake I will be there.
