(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.

Title: Re: RRE Season 2 Race Room Historics - Sonoma Raceway - Nov 19 Post by: Wiltshire Tony on November 16, 2015, 12:47:40 PM +0000 Another one I won't be able to make. Hopefully I can do the next one tho unless work throws up another deadline ::)

Title: Re: RRE Season 2 Race Room Historics - Sonoma Raceway - Nov 19 Post by: Berger R - 74 on November 16, 2015, 10:40:51 PM +0000 i did any laps already, and i do like (or love) this car/track combination totaly.
grafic, sound, carhandling and FFB (yes, i like FFB in r3e) is all perferct, since long long longer time i have again this great "racefeeling, racefun" which i had only in GTR2 in past and then not anymore, and i did all the new racegame drive. ...and the AI cars are very good too, only in rf2 i like the AI cars more a little. hope goldtop can make this race, as the championship is extrem close between 3 drivers actual. servus Title: Re: RRE Season 2 Race Room Historics - Sonoma Raceway - Nov 19 Post by: phspok on November 16, 2015, 11:22:56 PM +0000 Glad you like it Reinhard. ;D
We ran this combo once in the past and it was a great race :thumbup1: Tudor needs to just hire the 1st drummer who turns up.... Title: Re: RRE Season 2 Race Room Historics - Sonoma Raceway - Nov 19 Post by: goldtop on November 17, 2015, 05:13:06 PM +0000 Tudor needs to just hire the 1st drummer who turns up.... Well that's always a good test for a drummer ::) Title: Re: RRE Season 2 Race Room Historics - Sonoma Raceway - Nov 19 Post by: phspok on November 17, 2015, 06:57:54 PM +0000 My mate's band in vaguely your direction ;D his drummer is a human version of animal

Looks like I won't be around next Thursday either so have fun :'( Should be back to normality after that with rehearsals on Tuesdays and gigs Fridays/Saturdays :) Title: Re: RRE Season 2 Race Room Historics - Sonoma Raceway - Nov 19 Post by: Hotkeys on November 19, 2015, 05:02:48 PM +0000 I'm a big fan of Sonoma, so in spite the fact that my old left hand/arm injury is bothering me these days, I would love to join this one.
HOWEVER....................... There's a small update, and unfortunately it contains a bug somewhere. The game now wants you to log on, the same way you log on to the website. Only it doesn't work :- (( Error 503 Backend services unavailable Cheeck in later. I wish they would call the guys from LFS and have them explain, how to make things work :- )) Stig PS. This is how that injury started way back in 72' : http://1drv.ms/1S6IFz1 (http://1drv.ms/1S6IFz1) Title: Re: RRE Season 2 Race Room Historics - Sonoma Raceway - Nov 19 Post by: phspok on November 19, 2015, 05:19:43 PM +0000 Oooooh groovy purple décor ;D
Title: Re: RRE Season 2 Race Room Historics - Sonoma Raceway - Nov 19 Post by: roguk on November 19, 2015, 05:51:28 PM +0000 LOL same as HotKeys error 503, tells me to try later, have done tried many times, hopefully will be resolved for next race.

Title: Re: RRE Season 2 Race Room Historics - Sonoma Raceway - Nov 19 Post by: phspok on November 19, 2015, 07:02:38 PM +0000 If it doesn't come back soon, we will delay the race for 30 mins, and start prac at 20:15 qual at 20:45, race at 21:00 Title: Re: RRE Season 2 Race Room Historics - Sonoma Raceway - Nov 19 Post by: Anty on November 19, 2015, 07:11:30 PM +0000 It's quite late here in SA already, so if we push it back 30, then maybe I will guve this one a skip, been reading Data all day.

Man they really need to get this server back end sorted out. It's been flaky as hell since the summer. I dread to think what the code looks like Title: Re: RRE Season 2 Race Room Historics - Sonoma Raceway - Nov 19 Post by: phspok on November 19, 2015, 08:23:01 PM +0000 Ant just rejoined, I wil restart the server for an extra 15 mins

Title: Re: RRE Season 2 Race Room Historics - Sonoma Raceway - Nov 19 Post by: phspok on November 19, 2015, 08:31:03 PM +0000 Come on Stig, I need someone to race!
Title: Re: RRE Season 2 Race Room Historics - Sonoma Raceway - Nov 19 Post by: mr_belowski on November 19, 2015, 09:22:19 PM +0000 Good driving guys, that was a fun scrap :)
Title: Re: RRE Season 2 Race Room Historics - Sonoma Raceway - Nov 19 Post by: Anty on November 19, 2015, 09:26:18 PM +0000 Well done Gents
A race I was not looking forward too, changed my car in the last minute because I saw Mr Berger was flying, just used a base setup, but it worked out. Sorry John if I got in your way Thank you all Ant Title: Re: RRE Season 2 Race Room Historics - Sonoma Raceway - Nov 19 Post by: phspok on November 19, 2015, 09:29:27 PM +0000 Two races, Ant, Chunky and Berger at the front, then Jim and I at the back after each fell off, only a second apart for
most of the race, brill stuff :punk: We decided at one point to compare the brakes of the Swedish Tank :tank: against the German missile :fencing: and , err, the Tank doesn't stop as well :o Results Posted Title: Re: RRE Season 2 Race Room Historics - Sonoma Raceway - Nov 19 Post by: mr_belowski on November 19, 2015, 09:31:48 PM +0000 yes.. I may have slightly missed my braking point there, sorry fella. Good fight though, your pace was improving all race and that sodding volvo is so much quicker on the straights it makes passing it really hard. Looked like you were really having to man-handle it too :)
Title: Re: RRE Season 2 Race Room Historics - Sonoma Raceway - Nov 19 Post by: phspok on November 19, 2015, 09:44:46 PM +0000 Yes, it's a barely controlled crash all race, it's not the most well balanced of cars, but I like it, the tyres seem to go off a bit
more than the others in the group so it usually gets slower towards the end, so I left it a bit more front grip which worked out well, but was like herding cats for the first few laps ;D Title: Re: RRE Season 2 Race Room Historics - Sonoma Raceway - Nov 19 Post by: Chunky on November 19, 2015, 10:12:24 PM +0000 WOW what a race! grats Ant on the win you put up with a lot of pressure from both me and Reinhard well done!
sorry for the tap Ant, tried to stick a move down the inside as I had seen you had gone wide, braked late and unfortunately had no where to go:) can't make the next one i am away on business, have a go one lads! JP Title: Re: RRE Season 2 Race Room Historics - Sonoma Raceway - Nov 19 Post by: Hotkeys on November 20, 2015, 05:55:23 AM +0000 Come on Stig, I need someone to race! Sorry Matt, I ran out of patience. Luckily I didn't run out of wine :-)) Stig Title: Re: RRE Season 2 Race Room Historics - Sonoma Raceway - Nov 19 Post by: roguk on November 20, 2015, 06:56:06 PM +0000 Glad you guys had a good race.
Tried again today still get error 503 back end service not available, this is stupid a sim you can not use even to practice on off line. |
