A challenging one this but a car that deserves an outing imo. I've made the race a little longer too just to add to the fun We'll need to get some practise in for this but I'm sure it will be rewarding for all. |

Nice car choice, now to check if the track is fun for it (I think it will be) |

Not tried these old single seaters yet but not exactly an easy choice to bed the new faces into a multiplayer race!  I would rather have used something a bit more straightforwards personally to make for some closer racing. Will give these a go but unless they click fairly easy I will probably pass this race as I don't expect much spare time over the next few days. |

I'm in the #34 BRM type livery I'm horribly slow in these but this will give me an excuse get to know the cars better........and it is British GP week after all. If it goes well I might do a similar event for Monza weekend |

Having real problems getting this car to turn around those tight hairpins (boy, they really have broken Silverstone haven't they?)
Also had a tank slapper moment which I would not of imagined possible in these cars? Suspect physics?

Here 2 setups that I took from my Moza66 one. So not quite finished yet, but it gets me around the track Lotus 49Lotus 49 exit understeer |

Apologies for missing the last race, work got in the way. Looks like the numbers are creeping up too which is great. I'm definitely up for this though and I'll take the yellow peril #6 if that's ok.

Suggest you might be experiencing a bit of input lag there Tony as this can feel similar a tank slapper. A common workaround is to adjust this line in your main AC install folder under system/cfg/dx11.ini MAXIMUM_FRAME_LATENCY=0 It will probably be set at 3 but setting it to 0 will make it default to your gfx card's max pre-rendered frames setting which should be set at 1 in your card's control panel (or nvidia inspector if you use it). Same goes for all sims |
