Reminds me on Dundrod and Isle of Man athmosphere...
Although I've not been to IoM in GPL (or for real!) - I have seen some replays. Unfortunately, this track would appear to be all too similar But I'm aware it's my problem/fault - not JFB's !

GPL kept locking up/crashing once I was connected to the server. Unfortunately, the ~15mins of qually time did not give much chance to try very much.
Annoying - I'd actually practiced for this one, including an online run last night.
Have fun chaps....
Good to see JFB, if only briefly as the car streaked past the pits!
Cheers, Dave.

Just went to pieces in the race. Maybe I wasn't braking where I should but could not get the car around the hairpins. Got a wheel trapped in a headge in lap 1. The pit lane was all mud & I span taking off. Found myself being lapped by Gareth about Lap 3. I was simply trying to get out of the way - not sure if my poor car control caused you a spin? After that I just retired the car to stop being a liability. Been like this for several races now - maybe need some time out.

Had a couple of freezes att his track both offline and online but I had installed the 55 mod so thought it might be that.
I restored my previous install to see if that fixed it but it didn't and I got kicked from Qually 2 or 3 times when getting in the car.
Managed to get an OK lap in and was running 4th and 5th in the race until the leaders had issues and ended up having a great battle with Bastian who took the lead after a few laps before he discod.
A few seconds later, while leading again, I was Discod too.

Just read that Clive had a freeze during the Pros race and has also had some offline like me. Obviously most of the Ams were dropped too.
Might be worth considering a track change if we are rescheduling the race.

I can't remember at which lap happened the massive disconnection : 17th or 18th lap ?
at this time, the standings were :
1 Miner 2 Bastian 3 Jean François Bovy 4 Rainier 5 Francesco
Gareth and Billy left the race since several laps. Dave Curtis could not join the server for the race.
I don't remember what are the rules in such a case... does the final results applied if more than 50% of the distance ?
I know we could re-run a race but the season is already finishing in July and lot of people are on holidays !

As I was approaching the right hander under the trees before Bastin, I was following Bastian Grupp but he disappeared from my view as he turned in and I didn't see him again. I was able to continue to S/F where I had my disco and my machine had me in the lead with Bastian already disconnected. Bastian (on his machine) also continued to S/F and his machine had him in the lead but the server had may have already lost him. I'm not sure what the server shows, obviously, but I'll take the win

I guess the event could be a write-off. Server needed three restarts to play nice and froze on lap 16 of 35. Unfortunately no replay or standings were saved.

Everyone knows that million-to-one chances happen 9 times out of 10. Why the hell do I keep crashing then?!

Was it a different server than normal because I had a nice piece of bodywork as a steering wheel and no dash.

I had off- and online freezes in quali and practice too... Due to the IP connecting the server had a way higher CPU and GPU workload at ~ 45% (vs the dedicated server with ~5%) So maybe we need a special light server version. Shame, such a beauty making such trouble

Mike you have an old 65 mod version! There is a patch for it in the Grand Prix Legends subforum posted by maddog! https://www.simracing.org.uk/smf/index.php?topic=13989.0
