Probably not of any interest but there is a v1.2 of this track that we have used in PnG.

Don't know what the difference is.

Oh dear!

If you are going to mess this about due to some blokes running around a field kicking a ball can you please let us know asap?

I, for one, will need to make other arrangements.   ::)

if we are going to have a fun race next week while people kick a ball around a field we could do a short track like brands indy or snetterton in a GT2?

There has been a few changes to the SuperGt500 mod that I need to take a look at before we use it again otherwise I would have used it already. :)

I can manage around 1:37-1:38's just about.

Maybe if I got a 100% clean lap then maybe down to 1:36 but no less than that I don't thinks.

I gotta admit I was enjoying this race, however with less than 10 laps to go I just started to sping almost every corner so kinda gave up.

@ H@L

Thanks for organising season 16, the time spent sorting things out is appreciated.

Have you decided what mod we will be using for season 17? The GT2/LMP2 on the same tracks seems to work well.

what about next sunday......GT1's at Brno?

Well done to H@l for the victory of the champ!  :thumbup2:

During the summer my week-end are usually busy, so I jump more races than usual.
It's a pity that I couldn't join the last 2 races. For some issues, I've never been able to do all the races in the UKGTR prototypes champ, so I'm happy with my 3rd place overall :)

Grats to Apex for 2nd place  :thumbup1:

Thanks to H@l for the organization, and to every driver who took part in this champ!!

Cu for the next proto champ... I hope :)

Post by: spanner on August 04, 2012, 09:37:02 PM +0100
I imagine with the season ending, H@L might want a rest, and a chance to work out what to do next.
