I might be joining you guys for this one. I'll be in the 458 if so. Wouldn't have thought the GT3s GT2s would suit Doni but I'll give it shot.

I still can't stand what they've done to the track. No bridges, the craner curves are wrong...it was bad enough when they added the hairpin for the GP layout, this is just silly...  :no: (half joking, by the way.)

Does anyone have any lap times yet? Please post here if so. I need the data to help calculate the lap count. Thanks. :)

hello,

i did quick any laps and was in 1.30 (so probably 1.29.xxx possible with more practise)
so i think 20laps is good.
somehow after patch the cars are more difficulty to drive for me with TC OFF (like i normaly do in GT cars) push push out of corner i do very easy make spin with ferrari, sadly GT2 do not have ABS, so brake is very difficulty for me in this GT2 cars.
i have little feeling my laptimes are slower now too (probably because of more difficulty to drive).

i hope i can make tonight race, not sure actual.

servus

1:33's for me but definatly seems quite hard to drive round here. I'll blame it on the revised physics!

If anyone else is running Windows 10 here, I've just had an issue where the game crashes when loading the car + track. I've seemingly fixed it by setting the .exe file to run as administrator and by changing the in game resolution back to what it should be (it changed itself to 640xsomethingorother). There's a bit of discussion going on about it on the AC forums at the moment, so it's not just me.

You could have rejoined, Spanner had a problem as got reconnected as the lights were going red.

Tough race for me, no practice and no feel on the brakes. Not sure though, even with some feel, I could go 3 secs a lap quicker and be remotely competitive :( If this had been F1 I not sure I would have qualified under the 107% rule  ::)

yes sorry about that, I hadn't realised this clashed with my GT3 league race at Spa over at Core. In my head they were on alternate sundays to each other but that was only a temporary arrangement as I found out yesterday.  :-[
