Interesting, I've decided to go Corvette for this race too, will stick with it for all the races I think, handles like its stuck to the road with magnets, both in the way it grips, and what happens when it loses it.

Rich, Is your server running the car pack, after 5 joins yesterday and being stuck at ghost tracks at 0degrees. I join yours same thing, the first join on a 1.4 server and there's a track temp (no cars as im the only one in).
More importantly will the race server have the car pack installed?

Thanks Picnic,
Guess I may have to withdraw from Endurance based on these initial tests :'( . I'll leave it to see if tonight works fine, but If I can't race I'll release my slot to someone who can.

Very sorry guys.

Damn- engine blew with 6 mins to go and at only 82 degrees A new one on me! Oh well, not really enjoying GTR too much these days I'm afraid to say. Feel free to send me back to reserve status for the GT Sprints- I'd rather someone who was able to practice properly had the place.

Give a man a fish- he'll eat for a day. But give him a fishing rod and... he'll break it up for firewood, or just possibly, swap it for a fish.

Me 2 for reserves, I don't think I'm upto par any more on the GTR front. I did about 7 hours practice for this race, was shit slow and worse inconsistent and dangerous. Perhaps I'm incapable of switching between sims or summat.

Lol, Fozz, you managed to take two Penguins out? Good score! Don't worry, sh!t happens in races. Besides, it was long overdue, considering I punted you at least twice.

What a great intense race ...shame i didnt get the result my race pace deservered :'( Qualied 8th, which wasnt bad considering those in front of me. Also gutted that on my last flying lap with 1min on the clock i was -0.6 up on my PB, which would have moved me up 4 places, i blew it on the very last hairpin corner...twat! :'( Early race went very well, had a fantastic nose to tail battle in top 5, just behind Rich_A and aagram for about 23 minutes, excellent stuff and very intense. Then had a silly spin giving it a little too much out of a corner and dropped a few places. Still had very good pace so started to close down the front guys again, but then in-explicably the car just broke sideways at end of the fast S's and put me sideways into the tyre wall and ripping off the front spoiler and bonnet .....Gutted. Crawled around to the pits with no front grip and pitted. I decided as their was 10 minutes remaining i would get it repaired and blat back around to make up some places if people fell off. Spent 106 seconds in the blasted pit box !! Came out 2 laps down on leaders but clawed back 2 spots from other people retiring from the race. Managed a hard earned 9th place in the end...scant reward for the first half efforts but enjoyable race nontheless, should have been a top 5. :'( Great race
