Please note new race times above. Following requests, all Wednesday races will now start at our usual time of 20:40.
Quali for race 1 will now start at 20:30 and will only last 10 minutes. This should be ample time for an outlap, a banker and a quick one. Hopefully this will also add a little more spice to the mix.

alas ive had to drop out of these wednesday night races as i do the RD 60min races on tuesday nights, and also P&G normally on thursday. I value my gonads too much to attempt to race 3 nights on the trot ! Weds has always been a tough night to get to race.

Hehe, we have a GT Pro race @Brno with MJ today. Nice way to learn the track. I wonder how slow it will feel to drive Cats here after GT Pro Saleen.

Hope 2:12 will be alright? AI seemed to be doing very low 2:13's... so figured it should be about right

Still trying to sort my Race07 ffb out for the G27 and managed to lose my clutch somewhere which gave me a S/G for false start .....then I overshot my box and had to come in again . Wheel felt lousy so I decided to bail out Disappointing turnout again with only 5 of us plus the AI.

Not a big fan of the track, but got the car feeling closer to enjoyable for this one (finally). Race one started great, but made a mistake on lap 3 & was lukewarm lapping till the end. Race two was very different & enjoyable. Started 2nd & had good scrap with Lazlow, then Ade, then NSFast... lost them all predictably, but it kept going till the final lap Not sure where we go with this, with only five humans on the grid

its a shame these cat races are suffering low attendances as they are great fun for racing, but think its probably the weds eve slot thats causing low turnout Cant we run it on a monday eve (if thats any better?) or a thursday when P&G/GTL isnt on? One other thing...are you actually telling anyone else this is on? ie post over at No-grip or other Race forums.

It could be the Wednesday evening slot, but then who's to say Monday would be any different. We've just lost GTL from Monday. Thursdays now alternate between GTL and PnG, so that's out.
I'm not "advertising" as such, but I'll give that some thought. It would be interesting to know if the server name changes had any impact, as we do seem to have had a few new faces recently.

Not that keen on the Cat tbh, that's why I didn't race tonight. Wednesdays are ok for me as I tend to go to 'BREASTS' Gpl after. I'm not really that up on what the differences are but could it be that it's Race 07 being used and not GTR Evo? Would more people have Evo? I think Evo tends to be what people buy first, then add Race 07 to it later. I got R07 as a free add on. I'm probably completely wrong though

I hate alternates, weekly's the way to go. I might get alternate with something I don't do and then I'm here less and less. This is exactly what's happening. It's all iR's fault.

I'd imagine more people would have Race07, GTRevo is an addon to it. If you have Evo then you have Race.
I'll happily turn up anyday of the week to something that interests me. I never like the caterhams in the original Race, dont like them here, they are my least favorite cars. I'd even drive the mini's! Track selection is a bit boring having done these tracks to death.
I'd even had a quick AI race in the WTCC extreme cars round nurburgring last night. Easily on par with GT1's, shame i set the AI too high! there slow in qually but bloody quick in the race!
In another post Mark you said your'd struggle to get another night's racing anyway.
I dont think it matters what night it is, people are racing most nights of the week by the sound of it anyway. Tuesdays seem either Gamerscrib or racedepartment now for most.
