Wednesday Assetto Corsa Fun - 23th July 2014 - Xbow vs Lotus 2/11 at Aosta

[picnic]

The dedi server output tells me it's there but I can't see it either

[picnic]

Must be there now Erik's joined.

I hadn't removed the entry_list.ini file

EDIT : There now, I've booked in

[Johnny X]

I can't see it... had numerous server list refreshes and two complete restarts.

[picnic]

Not sure why you might not see it, there are 4 of us on now. Did you see Chris' server at all? Not sure if that's still up now.

[Johnny X]

Found it now and booked. Had to change some of the filters for server selection. Had all selection options highlighted as I did before when I could see the server, now only highlighted to look for locked servers and it shows up.... Go figure.

[picnic]

Phew - glad you've sorted it

Oh dear, that didn't end well - PC blue screened and now fails to boot! I'll let it cool off and play over the weekend.

Was almost dead last at the time. You guys have some serious pace here

Have to appologise to GoldTop for the little nudge last night going through the first section, no excuses on my side, i was too close and couldnt react fast enough when you braked at your braking point.

I did slow down but saw you got hit again so carried on.

My appologies.

[Mark J]

Tricky cars under braking these, and not much in the way of setup options.
Never did get that hairpin corner right despite trying all manner of entry and braking points 

Finished 5th overall so decent enough but have to say I was pretty bored after 9 laps. These cars and this track just didn't do it for me. Had the odd good little dice and the cars looked neat on track but couldn't lose the feeling I would rather be racing proper cars on a proper track. These felt like Mario Karts!

Congrats to AlkiProst and ChrisR up front for the podium 

[goldtop]

Apology accepted Chris 

I must also apologise to whoever I hit (no replay) while rejoining after being bumped off. I looked and listened but it was an awkward spot, probably should have cut the track down the grass and rejoined on the straight 

Quite enjoyed the Xbow and the chase back. Ed was a bit laggy which gave me a couple of frights when I was behind. Not sure if that was netcode or bad connection but noticed your ping was 164 which shouldn't ordinarily cause problems.

Grats to AlkiProst for the win

Did you enable ABS?

I would rather be racing proper cars on a proper track.

  Normal service will be resumed next week  I want to try out these dynamic track settings although I do believe they're a bit primitive atm. I'll pick a short track with some familiar cars as it will allow more laps and more chance to effect changes in grip.

Id love to see a race on blackwood.

It is another addon track but its been very well done, it is a track from live for speed and its very flowing.

Not too fussed about car tho, ill drive anything aslong as we havent already driven it.

The new server options look excellent!

Yes I remember racing a Blackwood conversion in nKPro. Been meaning to try AC version so I'll sort something soon.

[ChrisR]

Also.. The lotus evora GTC and GX are excellent around there hint hint poke poke

Had good fun trying not to spin the car   and then every time trying to catch the one in front of me  

Just a question: what is the organisers view on the track boundaries? I saw some using the concrete parts of the corners and was just wondering. Not a slight on how people drive, but just so I know what I have to change on my way of driving (not going to be faster as a result of that  ) More to know where to put the car to avoid a pass  

Evora GTC is good fun to drive and one of the easiest of the Lotus cars I've driven yet.
