Championship standings HERE Grid/server capacity: 22 Track: Laguna Seca '67 Download thisCars allowed: Can-Am car pack Download thisDrivers are reminded that they are limited to only two drives per manufacturer. Check your status HEREPractice: ~19:20 (60 mins) Qualifying: 20:20 (20 mins) Race: 20:40 (36 laps) Time of Day Setting: 14:00 Start: STANDING Tyre wear: Normal Fuel consumption: Normal Server: simracing.org.uk Monday Password: see aboveNotes: (1) It's best if all drivers can make sure they are connected before the Qualifying session as drivers on track during qualifying will not see cars that join after they are on track until they go back to the garage. (2) Please make sure you are fully aware of the SimRacing.org.uk Rules. (3) The AI control should be turned off so that you have control of the car at all times, including pitting. Your player file should therefore read Autopit="0" Force Autopit Off="1" // Forces autopit always off No AI Control="1" // AI never has control over car If you still finding pitting problematic, experience tells us that its less to do with positioning and more to do with approach speed. A slow approach to pit crew chief has proved most reliable. Special Notes: Don't be caught out by the green light. The light's seem to go red, red, red, red, green, bright green. Suggest drivers use start countdown to avoid jumping the start.

I know it will probably be etched on my tombstone but....
Any chance of cuts off for this one.. There are a few annoying opportunities with only 2 wheels off the tarmac where the track police are eager to give you a S&G. Also the pit area on the right of the SF straight (Not used for pit stops even in the race) will give you one as well. I don't think there is any of us who would intentionally cheat by taking a short cut and all 4 wheels on the track surface is definitely the quickest way around so pointless to penalise someone for making an error.
Anyone got any times to share? I'm taking the Chappy 2E so won't be troubling anyone around here but for reference I'm in the low 1:04's on a good day.
TTFN John.

Looks like Tony's pics are gone now too. Photobucket is killing itself.

For those who are not aware; Photobucket offered free photo/picture hosting and many people, including myself, used their 3rd party hosting to add images to this site. With the minimum of notice Photobucket denied this service and instead offered it for $300 per year. Needless to say I, and I suspect many other's, will not be forking out dosh to these latter day pirates. So until a replacement host is found we are stuck with this annoying Photobucket ransom note.

I think that with McLaren M1B should be possible 1:02 For you perhaps, but I'm unfortunately human Did test the M1B, but with present setup, it's close to being undriveable. Any throttle application through corners and the rear kicks out, even in moderate 5th gear kinks. Setup would definitely need a lot of work, with no guarantee at all that I'll be able to improve it. Cheers, Erling

Please be kind to me as you lap me!!! In the 427/Chap I'm mostly in the 08 to 10 range with race fuel. I agree with the cut turn off comments. Off please...
