Be well. :) I think I remember H@l said no new pack for the next season. Or is it just a no no for new cars (Nissan power? ;) ) and skins are ok?

kk chears.

Still cant figure out how to skin the z4m.

I got a skin made for it but then all of the z4's look like that one instead of having different skins for each team.

Anyone know how to fix this??

How about using the downloads link in the blue bar at the the top of the page, or brosing the forum to the download page to get it TT. How long have you been here.... :-\

Well, I never had to do it like this before... ::) Thanks. :) Seems strange as my no-cd file also stopped working, have to insert DVD in to play. Strange, yesterday worked as it always had. :(

Great race for me and a 18 or so lap long fight with TT with many changes for position. Awesome. :)

I was on TTs tail form the start and I managed to stay with him and keep the pressure on. After a while I was in a position to make a move but, I could not see a safe opportunity anywhere. In the end I tried a few dives down the inside knowing that TT would be fair.

Eventually I made a pass stick and did my best to stay in front until the end.

Good fun, see you all at the next one.

Good ol' times indeed. 8) Lap after lap after lap after lap. :wacko: I made two mistakes that enabled H@l to overtake. I was able to get back in front once but after my tyres were off it was over. Can't set up this car, my fronts get worn twice as fast as the rears. :(

Good race. 8)

I only managed 10 mins of praccy beforehand in the mc12 and that only told me not to pick the mc12! So picked the C6R as it seems pretty easy to drive but as ever hadnt quite got used to it so was locking up a bit too easily on the brakes. But then i realised i hate this track so much! the bumpy nature the braking zones into blind corners but i slowly got more and more annoyed as i dropped further back. Decided to quit as i'd lost interest.

I had only just fired up GTR2 before hand so hadn't got any prep in, at least next time i should be a bit better.

Hadn't planned racing here last night, but by coincidence I've been practising here for a Historx event in a Pantera so I at least knew the layout.

These GT1s on this type of track are way too much for me and those unsighted braking points were particularly tricky. I almost flipped the vette going through that silly chicane and then had a little nudge in the final corner which put me in the gravel. No biggy, but by then I'd had enough and quit out.
