The server dropped me from the track during qualifying. I think. I only noticed it when q ended, I went to pits, and everyone else was frozen somewhere on the track, but by that time it was too late for me to rejoin, the race had already started.

Engine gave up on me after 7 laps.... Very difficult track/car combo to learn within 45 minutes, but that is my own fault.
I'm afraid not many people are gonna finish this race

Not a race to remember from my point of view I had the pace, but couldn't keep my focus. I ended up ramming a fence which killed the engine. Arghh.... my sole aim was to get to the finish line The best part of the race was watching Tonys car go up in flames ...... very spectacular exit Tony Stig

What a stupid track choice..... I loved it! Proper challenge Shame I span early in my chase with Miguel, otherwise I'd been hoping to slowly claw my way back upto him to challenge for 2nd Got a race here in the GPL GT's in about a month, think I'll make sure I have the teams P4.....

Grats to Marco Miguel and Tim.
You were all a bit of a disappointment to me as I was banking on your getting up close and personal and knocking each other off!
So much for my strategy!
Can someone explain to me how the team points are calculated? It only seems to count the first member of a team and if that is the case, what's the point of having a team?

Disaster strikes again......Managed to get up to P3 off the start took it fairly steady on the first lap. Came out of T last and just approaching the fast left onto the main straight my PC screen blacked out. when it came on again I was ploughing through the trucks at the back of the paddock. Turned around and drove all the way back to the track only to be DQ'ed I can only presume it was for going in the wrong direction even though I was not actually on track. This is the first time this has happened to me in P&G has any one else suffered this problem or is it a symptom of impending graphics card failure? PS Strangely as I was writing this post the damn thing rebooted all by its self claiming it had to do important Win7 up dates. It usually asks permission to do this but I guess Bill Gates has decided his opperating system is more important than the people that use it. It may have been trying to do this last night because when I shut the thing down it was still doing 14 up dates an hour later....Very strange.

Bill,
The one from MegaUpload works for me ?
The foldername in location should be jops , where the nogrip version made a folder with the name 09_Jops_Siffert.
Did you re-install the right one and restarted P&G ?
Thanks for that Sandor. My problem. Have an excuse/reason. Not long back from having meal and drinks with youngest Grandson (18th birthday the previous day) and his elder brother up, Tony's neck of the woods - off J16 of M4. There's a large Pub with nice big carpark, where they do very nice meals, which is about half way between High Wycombe and here.

Computer now able to select "Install anyway" when Norton rejects Megaupload.
Wrong!! In my tired/befuddled state I must have thought I had succeeded, after a number of attempts, then reinstalled the nogrip one.

I think it's on the road to Wotten Bassett, was it called the Winston Churchill? or perhaps the Sally Pussey

If you click here: https://www.simracing.org.uk/smf/index.php?action=LM2R&group=313&theme=4&scoring=601#ch601You'll see the team champ config & notice: At each event, best 1 scores countWe normally have this set to 2 drivers. Mike, did you mean to have this as the first 2 drivers like normal or just 1 driver per team scoring? If it's wrong, I can help you fix it if you need help, let me know.
