Notes:
(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 Race Room Racing Experience from Steam, and have the Euro and American Track Packs for this series (And maybe another
non pack track occasionally)
(4) Please exercise caution when pitting as some tracks have a speed limit.

(5) Please follow the SROUK guidelines for using kerbs etc. Please keep 2 wheels on the track surface (kerbs do not count as track surface)
Excessive cutting of corners will seen as cheating and the results may be altered to reflect this.

The more I drive my big beamer, the more I like it, and Hungaroring is a treat in these cars IMO.

If you'd like to save your setups or share them, there is a way to do so.

You simply take a screenshot ( F12) and then upload it to your Steam Profile. You can add a text as well.
You can choose weather you want it to be public or not.

Here's an example:  http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561197992506606/screenshots

Had a quick test in the E30 and it is indeed another excellent car/track combo  8)

I predict a big update for Raceroom this week  ;) so not sure if that will happen before or after this race and if it will affect these cars or not (probably not as far as I can tell) but it might mean server changes  :-\

I'm not about this Thursday unfortunately so can't join you, plus I haven't got the touring pack anyway.

I've seen posts from RRE devs appearing to indicate the all cars are about to get downshift protection - even the Historics which obviously didn't have such a system irl. Is this correct? If so I guess the patch will affect these cars..

Could be, all I have read is that there is a fix for cars dropping out on line races for a particular situation
but they will probably roll up a few things.

It seems my prediction is off and that the expected update is now likely to be next week. I can now predict that I won't be making any more predictions  ::)

Hopefully you will still tell us, what updates you foresee:-))

drive this cars around this track is great fun, normaly i do only make practise quick for each online race i have, as my time is limted actual, with little daughter, much work and many new racegames to drive, but tonight i did make 2x30min. offline race with AI drivers (120% as they are slow in this track).
this was one of my best feelings for a racegame i ever had, simply poor fun and action, the AI drivers did very good job, since long long time i had so much fun to make practise for a race (but drive against AI cars do make you not faster, so normaly a waste of time this is, but fun).

i saw the different of the cars too, any cars corner faster and any cars straight speed good (the nissan, probably with turbo from the sound i did hear).

looking forward to race tomorrow, i did play a little with setup the wheel (clutch mainly), hope this will help me for better start, as in start i was very slow in past races always.

only downside, so good racegame but not much people drive this game, no idea why pcars for example 10x or 100xtimes more people do drive as R3E.

I don't know either, but then I have not tried Pcars yet. Not enough old cars in it for me.

Hope to make this one tonight if home in time will be in beemer 44.

Hey Gents

Happy Racing tonight

Ant

think the game have a bug (problem)

i was in quali and i was 0.39x sec. in front of my PB in quali, but i did run out of time and the game jump direct to start of race.
but then i was not able to do 1st gear on, i could do nothing, only the throttle was full, but no wheel input i had, nothing, nada...
strange this was, i do not know if this come because i was not in pitbox if session did change???? normaly i am always in pits before time in quali is out...

i was so much looking forward to this race, very much this... :'( :(,

Bad luck  Gerhard Reinhard. I think you are correct, it happened to me once where I was not back in the pits at the end of qual
and I could not start the race. It needs flagging to the developers.

Sorry you missed the race Berger :- ((

I had a great time chasing Matts Swedish Tracktor. The Volvo had a little more power to spend on the straights, but the beamer was quicker in the slow corners.
I think we did 95 % of the race with less than 1 sec between us  ..... sometimes 2 laps in a row with less than 0,5 seconds.

That was fun Matt  ;D ;D ;D ;D

Thanks for the race and grats to the Podium

Stig

Ouch, we'll have to look out for that one. And it's Reinhard, I think Gerhard is his older brother  ;)

Anty, you were disappearing/flickering constantly after about 10 minutes mate. Also I noticed the time gaps back to you were varying excessively for a few laps after the flickering started. Not sure what's up there  ???

Nice race and great combo and what promises to be another great event next week. Matt is just too good to us  :thumbup1:

We missed you Mr Berger..

Well done GoldTop.

Thank you for a good race

Ant

Great Race Stig  ;D Some very grown up side by side at times  8)
Results posted. A great shame that Berger fell foul of the qual issue. I will mention it in the forum.

GoldTop, the flickering started after we lapped bill, I had a close call with Him. I will check out my line. I will sort it for the next one. I wanted to push more, but the race was strange for some reason, I could not get into the grove. Well Done Champ

Congrats GT and Ant. Chased them close for a couple of laps, then got a slowdown penalty early on and lost touch. Fun race though, thanks to all.

@Berger - Sorry you could not start the race; I too was out on track when the qually session ended, but for me the race was fine, with none of the problems that you had. Just unlucky for you I guess.
