2016 1:10 ELECTRIC NASCAR TRUCKS ROUND 5 Carpet 2

30.05.2016

Report by J-P.Huhtala (VRC race reporter)


2016 Season 1 and round 5, Carpet 2

Fifth round of Electric Nascartruck series was helded here at Carpet 2 track. As the track is puplic to all racers, and most drivers knewed driving style to this track, we expected that this was going to be tough battle of podium places.
At timed practice USA driver Billy Caley showed his pace and runned his name to top of the list. OK, this practice was not mandatory but we could see what pace should be in next rounds.

QUALIFYING
At qualifying Britains Graham Raistrick had started this event. And no wonder, he was immediatly at top spot when round ended. He was only driver who got to that 29lap. Remarkable pace!
Carson Yeung from Hong Kong continued his great driving also in this round, he was at second place, almost five seconds behind Raistrick. Thomas Klingen from Germany was third fastest. He had improved his pace almost five seconds compared to his timed practice run.
Caley who was fastest at timed practice, didnt joined to this round. This was pit sad, because he would been only driver who could challenge Raistrick of TQ place. So great was Raistricks pace.

BUMP UP
Raistrick continued his great pace at BUMP UP and took the TQ place for the final. Graham`s average 10.6 was too much to others. He won this bump up with decent 5 seconds margin before Huhtala.
Huhtala in second, Yeung in third and Giordano in fourth place. These three drivers were really close each other in bump up. Gap between Huhtala and Giordano was only 0.63 seconds.
It was pretty obvious that this would be Raistricks race, if nothing miracles happend.


Raistrick`s pace was poison to others.

RACE
Like it was expected, Raistrick was unstoppable at Final. He was hitting such laptimes, that he totally crushed his fellow competitors. Carson Yeung in second place, had to surrender almost 10 seconds margin to Raistrick. Graham`s average 10.6 was poison to others. Great driving Graham!
Like we earlier told, Carson Yeung came second in this Final. During this final, he had nice and tight battle with Huhtala, they changed places four times and this was fantastic. Finally Yeung won this battle, with tiny 0.3 seconds margin before Huhtala. It was well deserved second place to Yeung.


Yeung and Huhtala had great battle during the final. Finally Yeung was 0.3s stronger.

Andrea Giordano, who pressured Huhtala and Yeung in bumpup, came to fourth place. Dont know what happend to Andrea`s pace, he was almost one lap behind Huhtala and Yeung when final ended. He had so fantastic pace at bump up, average was good and it was looking promising for final. Something weird it was. Maybe it was rhytm lost or day was not for Andrea. But honestly, we expected him to challenge and fight of that second place.


Andrea Giordano, Italy, was expected to fight of the podium places.

Posted by: Pieter Bervoets (NL) on 1.6.2016 12:09:45 (UTC) BTW, checked your video, it starts default at 480p setting, and quality is low. When you change it to 1080p it looks OK to me...



Ok Pieter, ivent changed anything. And im using that shadowplay recording program what comes beside graphiccard. My setting to record is 1080dp HD..... Should it be automatically in that 1080dp...so nobody dont have to change it?
Now it shows christal clear also to me, as i changed that dp figure. Nice Pieter!

I hope for next time to have on a free track more drivers. NASCAR Truck is a cool fun class. Try it out!

Posted by: Jukka-Pekka Huhtala (FI) on 31.5.2016 18:23:00 (UTC) IM SORRY GUYS ABOUT THIS VIDEO QUALITY. IVE DONE EVERYTHING LIKE BEFORE AND THESE VIDEOS SHOULD BE WITH CHRISTAL CLEAR VIEW. I DONT KNOW WHAT IS WRONG, BUT IF I LOOK THOSE EARLIER VIDEOS WICH IVE POSTED TO THOSE REPORTS, THEY ARE ALSO WITH VERY POOR QUALITY. LIKE MENTIONED, THOSE VIDEOS HAS BEEN VERY GOOD QUALITY WHEN IVE UPLOADED THEM. SOMETHING HAS CHANGED, DONT KNOW WHAT? MAYBE PIETER CAN TELL WHY CANT I GET THOSE VIDEOS IN GOOD QUALITY. OK, I DO NOT KNOW, DOES THESE VIDEOS SHOW ONLY TO ME WITH POOR QUALITY AND YOU READERS SEE THEM IN PERFECT CHRISTAL HD VIEW??? BUT STILL, SOMETHING WEIRD IS GOING ON BECAUSE THOSE EARLIER VIDEOS ARE ALSO GOT SOME ISSUES.


I cannot imagine that the changes we have made with the last exe update have any effect on the video quality, unless the quality of the game graphics has deteriorated which is not the case. To explain, the memory optimization was very much about clearing all video memory which was not needed for a particular game scenario, i.e. when you are on the track you don't need to have all the textures required for the pit table, car and track selections etc., in memory. It's more complicated than this but this is what it basically means. It has no effect on graphics quality. Capturing video is independent of our graphics engine, it just captures the screen image 30x per second.

I will do some tests myself with video capturing to see if I am getting the same problem.

I've noticed the same issue. Scattered becouse of my videocard is not very good but also poor quality even with good setting. I think it's not your fault but a gaming issue. Probably it will be fixed soon.

Thanks for all!
