No installer yet, but yes it is the 2004 one by NeelJ http://www.nogripracing.com/details.php?filenr=6904Times for me are within a tenth of each other, so should be close racing You can take "some" liberties with the chicane red barrels, but more than two wheels over the painted kerbs will result in your 1st born being sold into slavery. Sorry your post got lost Stig, I had created the event 3 times in my enthusiasm...... had to delete 2 of them

Well it all seems simple, but there are so many bits to it I'm never quite sure what If anything I am supposed to do with all the various groups etc. One thing that I've never worked out is why events Mike and I create are always in red, as if they aren't linked properly.

They are in red to show you that your event is upcoming.

I suggest we all make a special donation, so that UK sim can buy this for all you guys doing all the organizing work. BTW, Surfers Paradise is a great city track, maybe the very best. Stig

There are three/four different formats you'll see Matt: 1) the normal one everyone see's 2/3) red, either means you're the "server starter" for that event or there is no "server starter" assigned to that event yet (which I think makes it either bold or italics ) 4) I'm sure there's another, but I can't remember The key thing, is that no matter how bad you screw it up, Dave can probably fix it. (Well Tony's not beaten him yet! )

Not for want of trying tho. The other colour is a greeny-blue which means upcoming event with unfinished status.

Understood So, only I am seeing this event in red because I am the starter so I know I need to get my posterior in gear that evening. And yes I tested this, and absolutely loved it once I remembered which chicane was which. It will be a hoot

Well it's not too long.
Hmm..................................Trying to think of something else nice to say about it.
LOL
As you say Matt, it's all a matter of remembering which chicane is which and which ones actually turn out to be corners.
It's a bit of a challenge and I hope that enough of us are up for it.
People who struggle to remember circuits need to start practicing now!

Wot Clive said, (well some of it ) Please note: It's not ideal, but the red barrels are not solid, and a wheel through them is possible if you want to risk ending your race against the wall edges. Please remember not to put more than two wheels over the painted kerbs though If someone is seen to be consistantly and blatantly driving across the whole painted areas someone (Me) will post a complaint, and places will be dropped accordingly.

So, the striped red and white curb is part of the track and so long as you have at least part of a tyre on it you are legal?
It makes quite a difference.
And I will down grade my personal track rating to Poxy, never to be used unless corner cutting limits are sorted.
The long series of chicanes in the second half of the lap is a complete lottery at the moment as I can't find a decent aiming point to get the entry line correct. By the time you have committed to your line there is no way of knowing if it's going to be legal, foot fault or in the wall.
I don't understand why someone would spend vast amounts of time on building this circuit and then not complete the job by defining where the edge of the track is. Just let me add that I am full of admiration for the people who have spent their own time to provided us with all the wide range of tracks available. Long may they do so.
