Title: UKGTR season 22
Post by: H@L9000 on May 12, 2015, 04:31:48 PM +0100
It is time to start planning season 22.

First off, does everyone have Assetto Corsa and would you show up for a AC race on a Sunday? AC races are well attended on Wednesdays, and I think it would be best to try a AC fun race on a Sunday. This does mean instead of a GTR2 race. If well attended, then perhaps we should do GTR2 one week and AC the next. AC races are still only fun events at this time due to lack of in game race report data.

In GTR2, I think we should do a GTC championship. GTC is the class that we have not used for the longest (not including LMP2). 6 race championship. 40 minute races with x2 fuel and tyres and mandatory pit stop. Does that sound agreeable?

I have AC and would be happy to race it on a Sunday alternating with a GTR2 league.

sounds good to me. I have done a few of the Wednesday night AC races. I like the GT3 mod and the track detail is very good. Where you planning on using the GT3 mod?

Haven' t got AC (yet) and i hope they will improve mp experience in near future so it will take off like it should  with such a great sim. Having said that i might be lured in to some gtr racing, as it turns out racing on mondays and thursdays is not always possible for me and it would be nice to have this option. I should have the gtr install simewhere in Steam, i will try to install the patches and mods.
cheers

AC on Sundays will probably be GT2s.

I should have the gtr install simewhere in Steam, i will try to install the patches and mods.
cheers

I believe the Steam version is missing some Ferrari and Porsche cars. It is possible to sort that out though. Let us know if you have any issues getting GTR2 working.

Well GTR2 is up and running in standard version. Not had a chance to implement the mods yet. Also i am not sure if i need more then the car packs you guys are using. I noticed the Porkas and Fezzas are greyed out indeed.
I will have a go with the mods then.

Hi guys,

I'm back online after about 5 years away, and am not sure where to re-start. ??? I have GTR2 fully updated, but what is AC, and where does it come from? Looking forward to getting back on track with you guys, been far too long.  ;D

If there is a GTR race next Sunday, I will sadly be away testing at Snetterton until Wednesday, but really looking forward to getting back to this. Been doing some offline testing, and I'm already back to the pace I was before leaving, so there's some hope I might get faster. :o


Title: Re: UKGTR season 22
Post by: SRW on July 19, 2015, 09:53:03 PM +0100

What tracks do you guys want in season 22?

I am planning on running GTC class cars.

I am planning of using the following tracks for season 22:
  Laguna Seca
  Road America
  Mallala
  Brands Hatch
  Slovakia ring
  Moscow Ring
 
Does that sound good?



Title: Re: UKGTR season 22

looks good to me. will be good to race on some of the new tracks that are now used for real life international GT racing

Post by: Legzy on August 23, 2015, 09:01:11 PM +0100
Looks great (except 'Laguna' that we just used in both seasons 18 & 20), but why not start the season on 6th September & add two more rounds, finishing about the 1st weekend of December?

Dropping Laguna, how about three of the below that I believe most have not seen daylight in years:
Charade
Mugello
Bruno
Paul Ricard
Bahrain
Estoril
Detroit
Watkins Glen
Dubai
Zandvort
Road Atlanta
Anderstorp
Nogaro
Oschersleben
Magny-Cours
Dijon

Keep a note of them & that could be season 23 sorted for Jan/Feb  8)

Post by: Legzy on August 27, 2015, 10:45:12 PM +0100
Did anyone feel that was good/bad thoughts?
Will the season start on the 6th or are we looking at the 20th?

Just want to get started really...

That said, it's a family birthday this Sunday & I may not get back in time.
So that will be 1 lap completed in 10 weeks of racing if I miss it. This fortnight fixtures suck for me recently .

Was planning on joining you guys, but Windows 10 has F####d my install, and I cannot find my internet serial key for the game, so no online racing. Really annoyed as I've been waiting for a Sunday race to coincide with me being at home for ages. Have a good one. :censored:

Yes. :D I always do that. ::)

Unlucky bud.  :( I usually try to stay away from new versions of Windows for at least 6 months to avoid any issues. I believe that there are issues with Windows 10 and Nvidia drivers at the moment.

Cool, so I got my PC fixed in time for Sunday, was fun until I realised I needed an extra stop as I'd short filled by 1 lap. Been looking at the race list, and I can't find 3 of the tracks in the download list:

Slovakia Ring
Moscow Ring
Magny Cours

Can someone direct me to the place to download them please? ;D


Title: Re: UKGTR season 22

I am planning on using the versions of Slovakia and Moscow that are available at Pilsbierbude (http://www.pilsbierbude.de/index.php?lang=en) and Magny Cours is a built in track for GTR2.

I think you need to sign up to their website before you can download anything.
