(2) Please make sure you are fully aware of the SimRacing.org.uk Rules (https://www.simracing.org.uk/index.php?pid=7) especially the rules about in-game chat messages. (3) You will need to install Race Room Racing Experience from Steam, and have the Euro and American Track Packs for this series (And maybe another non pack track occasionally) (4) Please exercise caution when pitting as some tracks have a speed limit. (5) Please follow the SROUK guidelines for using kerbs etc. Please keep 2 wheels on the track surface (kerbs do not count as track surface) Excessive cutting of corners will seen as cheating and the results may be altered to reflect this.

Hopefully there won't be another before tonight!

Also not certain about next week with Christmas and Grandsons visiting before the New Year.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you all! Title: Re: RRE Season 5 (2018) Race Room M1 - Laguna Seca - Dec 20 Post by: picnic on December 20, 2018, 08:57:03 PM +0000 Have a good one yourself Bill :)
Had a mare tonight, never look forward to racing these but, so far, by the time the race has arrived I've at least worked out how to get them around. Sadly not here. Have a good Christmas all and maybe see you in the New Year :-\ Title: Re: RRE Season 5 (2018) Race Room M1 - Laguna Seca - Dec 20 Post by: Eck Simpson on December 20, 2018, 09:06:08 PM +0000 Well, that was... interesting?.. :-\

Think I got a lucky pole lap, much quicker than I managed before, & I was no doubt helped by the shenanigans at the Corkscrew early on. Still was a great battle with Frex for most of the race. Sorry about squeezing you on the last lap Frex, was so concentrating on where I was going & trying not to look in the mirror too much that I didn't realise you were that close. Good driving though, kept me under pressure. :helpsmilie: Congrats to Frex & Alessandro :clap: :clap: Merry Christmas all, cya next time.

Qualifyng: maybe nervous, i don't have the right feeling whit the car and i didn't do my best. Race: Good start, but the mistake arrived before the corkscrew . Losing a lot of positions. But with a very good pace i can recover up to third position. very funny catch with Eck , maybe faster the me!! sorry for the contact , i'm looking for take a look to replay. anyway, no problem. these kind of accidents can happen. wish you merry christmas all of you guys.

Sorry about squeezing you on the last lap Frex, was so concentrating on where I was going & trying not to look in the mirror too much that I didn't realise you were that close. No worries Geoff, I did seem to be a bit quicker out of that left-hander leading up to the Corkscrew and had many a run on you up the hill there, but it's too narrow and dangerous to try anything (except for the one time you got on the dirt and I squeezed by!) and I was already backing off. Good fun though, enjoyed it. Congrats on the win (first of many to come!), and congrats Alessandro for P3. Happy Christmas all. |
