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.

Special Notes: Start lights are hard to see. Sugget use of in-game countdown. Pit lane entry is very short.

New track for me.  What is a decent time for a earthling to shoot for on this one.  Haven't driven the 57 Jag so that's the chosen car for me.  Am now running 6:30 or a little less but still "Get lost" at least once or twice each lap. Not automatic yet..............

Cannot give a baseline time yet Bob as I've not driven the track "in anger" yet. Probably have to wait till the weekend. Probably not getting lost and pitting will be more important than speed here.

May have to give this one a miss, with 6 minute laps it is obviously a long track & I doubt if I will have time to learn it before Monday. If I get time I will give it a go.

Your right, it is a long track and I would say pretty impossible to learn fully. However most turns are visible i.e. I don't believe there are any really tricky turns. Much like real life I suppose. I doubt in RL whether drivers had many chances for practice laps on public roads?

You are probably right there Tony, I doubt if some drivers had even seen the track before they went out to practice on it.

As I say, I will have a run around it if I get time, but I'm pretty good at going off the road in these cars when I do know which way the next corner goes!  Shocked

I've only tried it with the 250 TR back when Tony first asked about this track.  Best time was 6:23.6, on a resonably error free, but by no means perfect lap.

Have to relearn it with my remaining car choices, which sadly don't include the 250 - a sweet handling car is probably an advantage on a track with so many turns.

Cheers,
Erling

Just had my first outing in the Jag.  After 1½ hours of practice, I finally managed a timed lap: 6:15.  Was on my way to knocking 4-5 secs off that on my 2nd timed lap, when I crashed again...  Roll Eyes

Tony, track cut warnings seem rather agressive in places, so maybe turning it off should be considered. Don't think there are many places where you can actually gain anything by cutting a corner.  On a track this long which will be very difficult to learn completely, it's frustrating to promptly be issued with a warning, if you set foot outside the tarmac in the wrong place.

Thanks for the feedback Erling. Cuts will be turned off.  thumbup1

Well, due to crashing out of last night's F1VC race early last night, I took the opportunity to give this track a try in the 250 Fezza. Actually it isn't all that difficult & I managed about 6 laps with only a couple of major 'offs'. Still plenty of time to be found as I get more familiar with the track, but my best time was 6.08.

Has anyone ever told you you're annoyingly quick ?  Grin

LOL, err no  Grin. Still not fast enough to challenge Jose & Ati though. My problem is, I can usually go quite fast within a few laps & then spend ages trying harder & failing to go any faster. I suppose it proves that smooth is fast & when you try harder you get more ragged & go slower.

Anyway I doubt I would be as quick as you in the D-type, a car I find incredibly frustrating to drive. Supposed to be one of the best handling cars of the era, yet the GTL one just seems to have really vague steering & a rear end with a mind of its own!  Huh

Well, Jose & Ati are walking(?) proof that whatever crashed at Roswell in 1947 wasn't a weatherballoon..  Cool

Do agree about the smooth bit, although I tend to forget in the heat of the moment.  Years ago when I first ventured online in GTL, I had a frustrating time of trying desperately to improve my laptimes on Imola in the TVR. Finally stopped trying to go fast, concentrating instead on being smooth and staying on track. To my surprise, my laptimes continued to drop.

Hated the Jag when we started this series, but must admit it's been growing on me.  Prefer its handling on vintage tyres, but grip when braking on those is almost nonexistent, so takes some getting used to.

Practiced in the Aston later last night and managed a 5:50, but looks like I'll have to try harder..  Wink

Tony, time of day for the race is shown as 04:00.  Just wanted to verify that it isn't a 'printing error' ?   Smiley
