hello racers,
I have just been practicing pitstops off line. Last time I did a pitstop in AC I used the pit config app that has been around for a year or so, but it doesn't work now and I am forced to use a new app that I haven't seen before which appears as I enter the pitlane. Is there any way you can adjust the settings of the new app before you enter the pitlane?
Cursor keys should bring the new pit app up wherever you are. You can set 3 different pitstrategies and switch between them or just change the pressure/tyre/fuel as you go ( finally you can change between different compound tyres and get the pressures right  ) Though setting them up in the setup tab is probably the best way to go and then maybe have 2 or 3 different pitstrategies |

You certainly can if Pete can edit the drivers file today as I won't get access to my pc until the race tonight and I've already sent him the last edit. Pete can you assign a stock z4 skin to Apex? Can grab his guid from a previous driver file or his racing history off here. That makes a potential 21 car grid tonight  should mean plenty of action for all. Still not heard from Sutol, unlike Chris to miss some gt3 action.  |

Pit stops are going to be the big unknown as I see its confirmed my old pit app probably wont work. The new setup based option looks a bit confusing

So never having tried to use the pitstop thing in AC. If I go into my setup and select the Pitstop TAB. If I set what I want, for example new tyres and 10L fuel, in the race when I come into the pits, will it do these changes automatically or do I still need select something in the pit menu that pops up?

Yes must confess I haven't even tried or used it yet  only srw 's question brought it into focus. Is there an instruction in how to use it written in any readme that came with the patch? If someone can copy paste it here would be helpful as I haven't got access to my pc. Another thing tonight - Track limits! No wholesale abusing of them or expect a post race penalty for repeated abuse. So no 4 wheels off at Copse exit for instance. I don't mind the odd indiscretion as it can happen in combat but I saw cars gaining quite a bit of time by running well wide at graham hill bend exit and keeping the power on, in the first round. Replay - can someone grab a replay of the race and upload it after? |

I'll add Apex to the driver's file for tonight.
Sadly I'll not race tonight. I've done something to my right knee and driving makes it hurt. No way can I manage an hour, especially as that would require practice and qualifying first. Hope your races go well.

Mark, going out of line in Copse- your speed will be lost because of low track grip in this zone. It more for safety then ) So- to be out of lines here- very bad thing due pilot's mistake. But i agree to respect lines anyway How many race laps will be? IMHO 28? Have a nice flight tonight in Great Silverstone, gentleman! |

As many laps as the leader is able to do in 1 hour. |

As the front guys have all pumped in 2.00-2.01 it should be 29 laps which allows for a stop too I think.
