A Modena at Mugello, what could be more appropriate? If only I had time for practice...

Very appropriate, but I cant get my Modena going round very quickly (compared to the lap record anyway).....can I take the Viper cc instead

Funny you say that Bob, I tried the Modena yesterday and in offline practice was over a second slower than I managed to get the RS round in the race last season. I just assumed I sucked yesterday.......now I can feel free to blame the car!

i seem to be firmly stuck in the mid 53's this time around (race pace) though i know it takes plenty of laps to get back in the groove here. I just hope my fps allows me to have a good race, seemed okay online last night with SBG and Pseudo present, but who knows ?... I tried to uninstall Sp3 last night but MS couldnt find its own files and cancelled the uninstall each time

I would have formatted my disk long time ago. It may even clear you some space of the junk you have there, MJ (44 installs of GTR2...). TT

Mugello, nice. Like that track. I remember my brakemarker for the final turn was when my mirror eclipsed some red structure up on the hill Here's hoping there isn't any rain.

Carl Hart was trying to join the game but got booted as a possible cheat. I got that too after GTR crashed and I re-entered. Switching to a default car I could joijn without problems, so if you're reading this, try that.

oh man i cant believe my bad luck with sim racing over last few weeks Enjoying a cracking race with what looked like a race long battle with Ginsters and Dave on the cards whilst running 5th and it lasts about 4 laps and i get a bloody Disco :'( Car felt good in the tricky conditions. Had spent half hour before the race tonight trying different drivers and everything was running smooth in the race. Now i am in the awkward position of not knowing if the new drivers caused it or it was just a random Disco. Pants. Hope you all had a good race, im going off to cry in a dark corner.

Yeah, start afresh MJ. Sorry you had to pit for (I assume) damage Peter, I was trying to pull off the racing line but I still had my hand on the clutch button to keep the engine running so I didn't move. Usual complete rubbish from me, seems the quicker I get at GTL the slower I am in GTR. No idea how you guys drive these things so fast. Usually wet suits me as the cars slide more like historic cars, but my 360 setup was pretty hopeless. Slowly losing patience.....and I so want to like driving these things.

Ha ha Steve I saw you spin and no matter which way turned my wheel I always kept heading straight for you. I was contemplating going in and getting new tyres anyway and that made my mind up Still couldn't beat fastest lap though. Probably cos I ended the race with 27l of fuel still. That's what happens when every thing crashes during qually and you're in a panic to check the car at least steers properly before the race.
