(1) It's best if all drivers can make sure they are connected before the Qualifying session as drivers on track during qualifying will not see
cars that join after they are on track until they go back to the garage.
(2) Please make sure you are fully aware of the SimRacing.org.uk Rules (https://www.simracing.org.uk/index.php?pid=7) especially the
rules about in-game chat messages.
(3) You will need to install Power and Glory v2 from here (http://www.gtlw.co.uk/), 2.1 patch from here
 (http://www.gtlw.co.uk/) and enable terrain patch.
(4) P&G has no 'Pit Speed Limiter' function.You may go as fast as you like in the pits, but please exercise caution. Penalties will be handed out for causing contact in the pit lane. Use your best judgement when making your pitstop during the race.

Nice fast cars there Matt.

Sadly I'm unlikely to make it as it's my son's and my daughter's birthday.  Same day four years apart.  Wish I could drive with that precision!  ::)

Have a good one.

Nice race, even though the grid was reduced to 4 racers. Thx for waiting on me John, it was fun trying to keep up with you, especially since the Ferrari was faster on the straights  :- ))
Unfortunately I blew the engine by overdoing the enginebraking.

Stig ..... hoping for a better turnout nxt week

Good fun, despite the lack of racers. Love the track, but I'm sure that chicane isn't as evil in the GTL version!

No problem, it made it more fun for both of us :)

It's a shame that this P&G series has such a low turnout at the moment.
I don't play GTR2 anymore except P&G, because I love the 60's cars.
Of course there are some other interesting mods featuring 60's cars like

SCCA Trans Am http://f1classic.your-talk.com/t5566-scca-trans-am-release-thread (http://f1classic.your-talk.com/t5566-scca-trans-am-release-thread)

and still some WIP's like

F production SCCA http://f1classic.your-talk.com/t7774-wip-f-production-scca-entry (http://f1classic.your-talk.com/t7774-wip-f-production-scca-entry)

both by jd121449, which would be fun and could easily be integrated in P&G too
but I think we'll have to wait for P&G v3  - if it will ever come  ??? - to get more turnout again.

Difficult race yesterday with tough beginning. Only after a pitstop for repairing including an unplanned
refueling the IROC had a better handling with tankful and I could manage to finish including new pb.
Was surprised that the Ferrari was faster than the Porsche on the straights.

CU next week.
