Grid/server capacity: 28 Practice: ~19:20 (60 mins) Qualifying: 20:20 (10 mins) Race: 20:30 (40 laps) Track: Snetterton 1964 Download thisCars allowed: Aston Martin DBR1 Download this, Jaguar D-Type (excluding the 1957 versions) Download this, Mercedes 300SL Download thisTime of Day Setting: 19:00 Start: STANDING Tyre wear: Normal Fuel consumption: 2xServer: simracing.org.uk Mondays 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. (4) Driver lists can be found on the championship standings pageSpecial Notes: There are no start lights, instead there is a starting marshal who will wave a green flag to mark the start of the race. The pole sitter can't see the marshall without using the "look left" feature. Suggest the grid countdown feature be turned on. Note earlier start time.

For those of you who don't read the small print............this is a chance to drive some iconic 1950's machinery around a superb circuit. Apart from this'n there will only be one other Fifties event this year so don't miss out.

Correct on both counts. Thanks - actually selecting the track in game removed any doubt, as it shows up as 'Snetterton 1964' - hadn't done that before asking redundant question.. Just practiced a little. Holy Mother, that Aston takes the cake with the best onboard sound I've ever heard in GTL! Pit lane entry/exit seems somewhat different from most tracks. Is the speed limit enforced on this track ? Cheers, Erling

Or bomb down the pit lane with no limiter and see if you get a stop/go penalty. I'll have to check it out too.

Cheers, Erling Result of soup sized flywheel and straight six with short stub exhausts. Have you tried the BMW 320i Grp 5 yet - if you like the 2002tii S, this is the car for you, another high revving engine with virtually open exhausts. Flat as a f**t at low revs, like can of nails being rattled and suddenly it gets on the cam and really goes with beautifully exhaust note.

No, haven't tried the 320i yet, but sounds like that's something to look forward to also Cheers, Erling
