Check the start time in your part of the world here: http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/converter.html I have been asked about the driving rules as not all the leagues run to quite the same rules. Broadly speaking we should be keeping to 2 wheels on the tarmac, but the wide kerbs on the exit of some of the corners are allowable. Blatantly straight-lining the chicane isn't. Radillon, we should be aiming to not cut across the kerbs on the left, but it is difficult being a blind brow. So a bit of leeway will be allowed there.

I forgot to mention the 2 Alfa's in my email - they're both very different and fun but way off the pace (In a similar region to the 911 ST) Title: Re: Dec 28th, P&G SROUK v GC v NG Christmas Team Event, at Spa 2003 Post by: Hotkeys on December 22, 2014, 03:20:15 PM +0000 When I get on the server, I get this message "Sever: Hotkeys mismatch".
I do not get booted, but will this cause problems for others, and does anyone else experienc the same?

Hopefully you will have a great evening's racing, guys :) Title: Re: Dec 28th, P&G SROUK v GC v NG Christmas Team Event, at Spa 2003 Post by: Geoffers on December 22, 2014, 03:48:08 PM +0000 No it won't cause a problem Stig, but it may explain why you get booted on the SROUK server. You may have something wrong with your P&G install which causes the mismatch & the SROUK server may be setup to boot people with mismatches. Maybe Tony can tell us if this is the case.

Title: Re: Dec 28th, P&G SROUK v GC v NG Christmas Team Event, at Spa 2003 Post by: Clive Loynes on December 29, 2014, 12:21:44 AM +0000 This was a great event that should be repeated as a series over 2015. Many thanks to Geoffers and Gamers Crib for putting it on.
However, it needs to be run on circuits that do not provide a large degree of discretion with regard to track limits. I also think that it will need to be moderated with a firm hand. I enjoyed both races. In the first one it seemed that no matter how many people were on the grid, I was always going to end up scrapping with Geoffers! Weedmaster came at me in the closing stages but, thankfully, my Cobra was more than a match for his Lotus on the straights. I was not doing so well in the second race and found, at the end of the race, that I had a couple of extra laps of fuel onboard. >:( Good fun throughout.

I agree, it makes all the difference in the world, when the grid is filled up. I incidentally tapped a Capri in the second race, I think it was Lade. I'm sorry, and I hope your car wasn't damaged. Stig Title: Re: Dec 28th, P&G SROUK v GC v NG Christmas Team Event, at Spa 2003 Post by: simon loynes on December 29, 2014, 11:53:55 AM +0000 Brilliant!!!
First race was a disaster but race 2 was fun all the way through. I made a grotty start and then got shuffled back to 14th thanks to the widest Pantera in the world. I got my head down though and made it back to 8th and was catching "Postal" hand over first at the end....just needed another lap for 7th. Title: Re: Dec 28th, P&G SROUK v GC v NG Christmas Team Event, at Spa 2003 Post by: FullMetalGasket on December 29, 2014, 04:55:33 PM +0000 Yeah, agree on the series thing. That was good racing, may I suggest a limited number of each available car per team each race to keep the grid varied too? Or would that discourage people?
Race one was interesting as I joined too late to qualify and had to fight my way up from the back of the grid, Turns out it was Casper I rear ended in the opening lap - Sorry about that if you see this :-[ Fairly pleased to battle my way up to 8th by the end, I had a setup that really seemed to work in the Cobra. For race 2 I qualified well but got swamped at the start due to getting caught up behind the 2 cars ahead on the grid - I was then unlucky enough to be punted off by Postal when I had to break mid corner to avoid (EvilClive?) and found myself dead last for a second race running ::) Was good fun again manhandling the IROC back up to 10th on cross-plies, the handling was sublime once I got to grips with it - I have no doubt I could have been a second or 2 quicker had I spent some actual time on it :) Title: Re: Dec 28th, P&G SROUK v GC v NG Christmas Team Event, at Spa 2003 Post by: Geoffers on December 29, 2014, 11:44:11 PM +0000 OK Guys, here are the team results:

(http://www.planet-venom.co.uk/PnG/SpaRace1.JPG) There were more cars than this, at the back of the field, but I don't see all of them on my replay.
