that was really good guys, sounded like you guys were in the same booth! although i'm fairly sure you werent!

by **LMR DarthMario** on Thu 24 Nov 2011 - 13:09

yeah, for some reason, Adrian sounded like he was in a plastic bubble @ Sebring. Louis, any confirmation of that? Laughing

by **Radiation Louis** on Thu 24 Nov 2011 - 13:16

Adrian I told you to take the bubble wrap off your head set lol!

Oh THATS what that stuff was, I was wondering why our headsets were a bit "avant garde"

by **ATR DAN** on Thu 24 Nov 2011 - 19:42

Do you know one of the reasons why I love this new commentary pairing? Because they are quick on their feet when it comes with things to say.
For example, with the Hockenheim race, my paint didn't load for some reason. But Adrian didn't just say "As you can see, Forza couldn't be bothered to load his livery" or something similar, he turned around and said "Dan is in the spare car after crashing his race car in qualifying". Clever! I wouldn't have said anything like that when I used to do some commentary for TORA TV.

Don't worry Adrian, I didn't mind you saying that! lol Razz

Also at Sebring with Louis explaining the lack of cars turning up to the race. I just howled my head off. Razz

At least you don't have the fat UPS guys turning up at your warehouse and bursting into song! Razz

that made such a difference with commentary, plus the commentators not f'in around and adding facts in, not just concentrating solely on the racing gave it more of a real feel.

Great job all round.

Bits n bobs I'd like to see added moving forward if at all possible:

Splits,
Quali times on parade lap
No's next to names
Some Incar shots
Replays and slow mo's

by **Biggsy tv** on Fri 25 Nov 2011 - 8:38

Cheers magic. I'll see what I can add for the 2012 replays

by **CQR Aero** on Fri 25 Nov 2011 - 9:06

Split times are something I looked at earlier, and while possible, are a pain because you'd physically have to time them yourself from the replay using a fixed marking on the track.

by **Biggsy tv** on Fri 25 Nov 2011 - 18:39

With the race that's being posted tonight, you won't need split times!

by Guest on Fri 25 Nov 2011 - 19:29

a quick recap of the last race and maybe a replay run through of any stewards enquiries and the results would be cool before hand too ;O) Especially if the commentators don't see them until they have to comment on them with the decisions displayed after each replay!!

by **Radiation Louis** on Sat 26 Nov 2011 - 2:25

ok the most recent video by far the best race i have ever seen be it virtual or real world and I'm honored that Adrain and myself got to comentate on it. Truely amazing and all of you put on one hell of a show!

by **CQR Aero** on Sat 26 Nov 2011 - 2:28

Hehe thanks Louis - just watched it back and it was almost as exhausting to watch as it was to defend for 8 laps!! Great job once again guys.

by MOPAR001 on Sat 26 Nov 2011 - 3:56

NOOOOO! Damn satellite feed. Razz

I really wanted to see that race to the end.

Just got done watching the Sebring GT24 race and it was amazing. Absolutely fantastic job on the editing and commentating. I clicked on it expecting a little recap but what I got was almost a true race broadcast. I can't begin to describe how cool it is you guys are taking the time and effort to do this. The professionalism at TORA is second to none.

Again guys, great job. Keep improving them and keep making them better and better. cheers

Also +1 for some in car shots especially at some overtaking moments or crazy moments like when Richy rolled it. Split times would be nice as well, maybe you could just give a rough estimate of the gap, exp. the top 4 are separated by a mere 3 tenths! Something like that I feel would go a long way.

Anyway keep up the great work and thank you for putting the replays together.

Edit: Just thought of one more thing, interviews. Getting an interview with the winner, a close racing group, or a victim of a crash would be a real nice touch. Cool

by **CQR Rogue** on Sat 26 Nov 2011 - 10:06

wow amazing commentary and great racing all, just showed the wife and as a non motorsport fan she was dead impressed excellent work

by **Matt** on Sat 26 Nov 2011 - 10:22

Great race, certainly woke me up Razz

I agree some more variation in views would be cool but that was a brilliant race. And just shows that we CAN fit a whole replay into a review LMAO!

by **LMR DarthMario** on Sat 26 Nov 2011 - 11:56

saw the clip from the Formula500 Finale, and that was Epic! the beating and banging, the straight speed of the Astra vs the corning of the Nissan's, and commentary from Louis and Adrian. Spot on!

by **JAMIE ANDERS0N** on Sun 27 Nov 2011 - 21:40

Just watched all 3, wow what a great job you two have done on the comms and great job to Simon with the editing.

Formula 500 wow what a race.

Keep up the good work guys
