Title: UKGPL Season 28 (2015) - Spa - Jan 30 Post by: Cookie on January 26, 2015, 12:00:08 AM +0000 Season 28 - 60fpsV1 – Porsche 910 Cup - Spa-Francorchamps 67
The Porsche 910 FUN RACE of the SC mod will be at the new challenging SPA67 in Belgium. The race will be run under INT rules and you have no car choice ;D We will use the 60fpsV1 (ftp://ukgpl3.dyndns.org/Replays/Archive/Season27/60fps/) to test if your PC can handle the challenge.
Please restrict chat to pit messages including at the end of the race until ALL drivers still racing have crossed the line. Have FUN!

Had an off on lap 2 and instantly I knew I had lost power - Dean and another came whizzing past me and they appeared to be holding out the white flag for me :-) I had to Shift R as there was no pint staying like that.... but the 'new' car was just as slow on the straight - I could tell immediately...just couldn't get the top speeds I had been getting in practice. No point in being there after that. Very disappointing given I had managed to get a steady sub 3:40 pace...

I got disco'd or screen freeze or whatever with what I thought was 6 to go, but that is still the amount left in IGOR as I type and most of the guys are still in?! Had a few mishaps, one with Mr Teso at the end of L1 which dropped us both to the back, my car set-up (poorly) for tow it took a bit to get close to someone. Ran for a bit more and found myself in the lead due accidents, got chased down by Axel then botched pulling out of an overtake on Axel and stacked it. After shift R & S&G I was ejected.... I was watching a few of you in qual, Axel & Ronnie, you seemed to be pulling higher speeds down the straight, did you pump the tyres up really hard? Or is it a secret?

I gave the rears a little more pressure but not too much. Spa67 needs a good traction in corners so not such excessive pressures as old Spa ;) The main thing is the gear selection, long 4th and 5th, for Eau Rouge and Les Combes I use long 2nd gear...
