Season 37 Fun Race – East London
Something else new to try out. This will be first GPL event to use the 1968 on-line mod. The season where traditional racing colours were replaced by cigarette packets & the teams started screwing odd bits of metal to their cars to generate more downforce. GP racing would never be the same again.
If you don’t haver this fantastic new mod, go to this site http://68f1.gplworld.de/downloads.htm
Save Download 1 & Download 3 - you will need them both. Follow the installation instructions & select the 68 car sets in GEM.
As this is a fun race there is a free choice of car. There are plenty to chose from but be aware some have wings and some don’t. I’ve selected a track that regular GPL drivers will be familiar with.
Server = UKGPL 4 IP = 77.102.28.179 Race date = Tuesday 23 June 2020 Time = starts no later than 21.00 UK time Track = East London Race length = 30 Laps Variant = 1968 On-line version 60fps patch used 60fpsV2newmod Damage Model = Advanced Qualifying time = 30 minutes minimum. Replay = here
Races are to be run at 60 frames per second – please use the 60 fps patch. It’s a fun race – try out Teamspeak. Unlimited resets with no stop & go are permitted.
Please restrict chat to pit messages including at the end of the race until ALL drivers still racing have crossed the line.
As the 1968 cars are not yet in the SROU database here are the results:

Fran Try changing your 68season.ini file for this: [Season] name=68SEASON Year=1968 numEvents=1
[Event1] name=East London Grand Prix shortname=East London trackShortName=East London trackDirectory=eastlndn flag=saflg month=1 day=1 numberOfLaps=85 startingGrid=4
Assuming you have East London in your tracks folder you should be able to drive East London with the off-line 68 cars (select 68SEASON in GEM). If you get that working, my server is up on iGOR so you can try to join an on-line race.

Axel normally, when there is this message,there is something wrong in the cars folder.At the moment i have only the 68-1 installed without the online. This morning i have installed the online overwriting any file of the 68-1(when required) and i have seen the problem.After i have deleted the car and mod folder and installed the 68-1 again(not online).

Yes, I have done the same. I'm pleased you've got the 68mod to work

Sorry about the stopping and starting of the server. I'd set the wrong number of laps. It is OK now.

IMO this problem is caused by the tyres, when you get ~80° they suddenly get too much grip. (snappy!) This Mod is based on the 66mod so the tyres are based on this tyre specs - optimum grip -> 26PSI F+R at 100° warm.. Same tyres as the CA66 including the "GPL Tire Pressure Bug Fix Patch" I had all the time temps ~52°-60°C and avoided to get higer temps, so I had the handling that I could savely drive This is my view and where my prib has the tire infos -> centered!

My temps was like your circa, between 54/62max, I ran with pribdula for this reason because I can't to warm the tires Maybe this is the cause, this was my first race with this mod and sure I don't know it, other test are required for the future races!

The '68 mod will take some learning. The car handling did feel a little different to other mods but I probably just need to find a better set up. Like some other drivers I did notice a tendency to lose the back end.
Nevertheless I was achieving some quite reasonable times in the Lotus 49. Due to early casualties I was running in 3rd at one point.
We'll try & slot in another fun race before Season 37 gets underway.
