Notes:
(1) It's best if all drivers can make sure they are connected before the Qualifying session as drivers on track during qualifying will not see cars that join after they are on track until they go back to the garage.
(2) Please make sure you are fully aware of the SimRacing.org.uk Rules.
(3) The AI control should be turned off so that you have control of the car at all times, including pitting. Your player file should therefore read
Autopit="0"
Force Autopit Off="1" // Forces autopit always off
No AI Control="1" // AI never has control over car
If you still finding pitting problematic, experience tells us that its less to do with positioning and more to do with approach speed. A slow approach to pit crew chief has proved most reliable.
(4) Driver lists can be found on the Championship standings page

Special Notes: None

Looks to be a longish race this one, over an hour I reckon.

In my hands the Porsche is smooth and fastest, definately the easiest drive, The Boss is 2nd fastest but I need more muscles to drive her. Then the Escort which is a joy but hits the limiter on that long downhill section and finally the Beemer that scare the life out of me at every turn.

Hmmmm It'll have to be the Beemer then 

Judging by Tony's description and the 34 lap approx 50 minute race length, it must be the '79 track (and as that's the one running on our server  ).

Looks like those times at the top of the page in the lap records are from the modern track, so could that be a potential issue with LM2 settings?

I might be tempted out of the porka for this one  

Edit: Just checked and neither the 911 or the Escort are showing up on the server.

Yes I'll second that. 

My bad, I'll modify the announcement. But the download link points to the correct track. The lap record times are for the 2005 version of this track. I'll have to check LM2 to see if I've chosen a wrong track in error.

Yeah back up and running couldn't find my 19" monitor base after having it mounted on the wall for years, was looking for something else and found it stashed away under the stairs
Had a few laps and I'm fastest in the 911 1:27.9   1:28.4 in the Boss and 1:29 in the Escort.
@ Tony you can increase 5th gear in the Escort independently and it doesn't run out of revs, I'm running out of revs in the Boss and BMW though.   

                                                Ti's good to be back behind the wheel
