Title: 69's at Rouen - Funrace 19/09/10
Post by: FullMetalGasket on September 16, 2010, 11:09:05 AM +0100
Hi chaps, I'm planning (read as hoping) to run a fun race on Sunday to see if I can suss out all this server malarky  ;D

Time = 21:00hrs uk time
Circuit = Rouen
Race length = INT - Short
Mod = 69 F1
Chassis = Free chassis choice
Unlimited Shift-R's with no penalties.

If enough people ask nicely I might be persuaded to run the Nurburgring instead if I can suss it all out  ;)
Otherwise treat Rouen as a practice for the Spec race that'll be held there later in season 20  :)

Right, I've managed to undo my confusion and this thread should work properly now!  :angel:
Feel free to re-commence posting chaps  ;D

Should be OK for this one - but will only be able to practice for one track - i.e. Rouen. (Would need more time to prepare for the Ring).
As its a single race should we go Int-Long rather than Int-Short?

I'm open for what the consensus want's Bill  :)
This is mainly so I can work out Srou, LM2, and the server!

By maybe the 'Ring I mean if suffient people post in the next day or so rather than my choosing on the night, so you needn't worry about practicing for what turns out to be the wrong circuit on the night.  :)
I just think the 'Ring could be interesting in a 69 is all ;D

I'd be willing to give ether track a bash, provided the opposition is fast enough.  I suffer from the downside of being a Castrol-R junky.

I should be able to make this one.  Maybe a short race at Rouen followed by a one lap mad dash at Nurby (no qually).  It would be fun and give you a chance to have a go at setting non-standard race lengths ;)

I'll be up for this too, ring or Rouen, barely turned a 69s wheels at either.

Results up - ain't I good?  ;D

Well done to our winners, and commiserations to our loosers.

Francesco - if you see this then your problem last night was probably that you were running the updated Rouen historical graphics set using the 'narrow' pitlane.
This will cause your car to explode when ever you join the track, you need to make sure you have the 'normal' version in your Rouen folder before joining on-line races  :)

Comefy 5th (bar Steve) then I threw it all away on a spin, after that it all went Pete Tong then Bob sneaked one through on the last straight  :o Sorry to give Stu a wobbly; prib + red + opaque said you were eons back to lapping me.
Anyway a few good laps battling with Martin earlier on.
