Rascar Guys - Car files missing

by John Simmon » Mon, 22 Apr 2002 22:01:12

The following individuals participated in the Rascar races but I don't
have their car files:

  #31 Cupid Stunt
  #65 Gary Stephenson
  #70 Ian Parker
  #88 Randall Johnson

One other thing (and it's an admittedly minor point, but it weirds me
out a little) - I thnk it would be better if everyone used just a two-
digit car number.

The 300-series of car numbers is used by the sim when one driver joins a
race with a given car number (let's say #43), and then a 2nd driver
joins the same race with the same car number.  Since #43 was already
taken when the first driver joined, the second driver will be assigned a
car number in the 300-range.

The 100-series is used to indicate canned Papyrus cars, and are probably
intended for people that have either no desire, no tools, and/or no
talent for painting.  These cars are kind of silly looking, IMHO, and
should be avoided at all costs.

So, in the interest of making sure that I'm happy (irregardless of
everyone else's feelings - Tony Rickard and ZZ Busch are familiar with
this train opf thought), I'd like to suggest, promote, and lobby for
strict compliance with the newly proposed (and admittedly anal) "use a
two-digit car number" rule.

For instance, Joachim uses #128, he could use #28 if he wanted to (I
dont think anyone's taken it yet).  Estop uses #120, but could use 20
because I think it's still available.

Lastly, someone in last night's race wanted my car site URL again, so
here it is:

Yeah, but I don't know what the guy's real name is, and I don't have his
car file. :)

"John Simmons"
   It's a shame fellow rassers have to witness the clumsy attempt at
displaying what the user thinks is above average intelligence.  :)  Just
think with the brain-power needed to figure out such a name, said user could
have taken that thought energy and solved most of the ills of the
world...tsk tsk.. :)

Me going #28? Being our local Redneck, you will understand my reaction:
Never. I've always used #128, it's been good this way, and that's how it'll
remain until the end of time <g> and if anyone doesn't like Papy's #128 car,
he can download my car from the RASCAR forum ;-)

On a side note, under the Littlefeat ID I use the original #124 car, and IMO
it looks _great_ :-)

You have my carset already, since I got it from you. It's the #65 Sunoco
paintjob that I got from your website. I love that paintjob. I don't
think I'll do anymore races, since I have a warp problem which has
resulted in two crashes in the last two races I've run.

server.satx.rr.com:

I'll have to redo my paint (#305) as I've broken a few of the NASCAR
painting rules with it anyway it seems (not important but I like to do
things "right").
So I'm open to suggestions on a new number- I chose 305 because that's the
length in mm of an Austin Mini (hence the japanese "305 club").  I can't
think of any two digit numbers that run with the theme of minis then I'm
all ears :o)

cheers

Ok, I've posted my car in the thread on racesim central forums. Not the car
I raced last night (number 70) but my new #68 car.

Hey Dave be nice. John just likes to speak his mind.

Cupid Stunt is Ginger. Also known as Bowtnettertodo.

Ginger comes up with some real "imaginative" nicknames.  lol

Then you must have changed the filename, because I saw you in a generic
car yesterday.

For anyone that doesn't already know, we must have your car file before
we can see your actual car on the track. Otherwise, nobody but you will
see your actual car.

Ginger is very much a HE, but Cupid isn't him - Ginger was the OTHER
'imaginatively named' driver, Wantric Tank.

I'm going to guess that's the same person who was "Burd Turglar" last week, and
a similar name the week before.  That's BowtNetterDo, or something like that.
Also known as Ginger.  That sounds like a female's name, but I can't imagine a
woman choosing these um, "different" names...  I almost booted her the first
time just on principle, until I found out it was Bowt.  I'm sorry, but I doubt
the seriousness of people who use these types of names.  Maybe I'm the only
one...
