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.

Will this race be at Sonoma again or is the track still to be confirmed?

Another one I won't be able to make. Hopefully I can do the next one tho unless work throws up another deadline  ::)

Half a job Bob..... Yes it will be at Sonoma again (We used it in Season one? and it went well I thought)

Drummer auditions for my new band Thursday so unless something changes I won't be able to race  :(

i did any laps already, and i do like (or love) this car/track combination totaly.

grafic, sound, carhandling and FFB (yes, i like FFB in r3e) is all perferct,
since long long longer time i have again this great "racefeeling, racefun" which i had only in GTR2 in past and then not anymore, and i did all the new racegame drive.

...and the AI cars are very good too, only in rf2 i like the AI cars more a little.

hope goldtop can make this race, as the championship is extrem close between 3 drivers actual.

servus

Glad you like it Reinhard.  ;D
We ran this combo once in the past and it was a great race  :thumbup1:

Tudor needs to just hire the 1st drummer who turns up....

Well that's always a good test for a drummer  ::)

My mate's band in vaguely your direction  ;D his drummer is a human version of animal

Link doesn't work for me.

Looks like I won't be around next Thursday either so have fun :'( Should be back to normality after that with rehearsals on Tuesdays and gigs Fridays/Saturdays  :)

I'm a big fan of Sonoma, so in spite the fact that my old left hand/arm injury is bothering me these days, I would love to join this one.

HOWEVER.......................

There's a small update, and unfortunately it contains a bug somewhere. The game now wants you to log on, the same way you log on to the website.

Only it doesn't work :- ((


Error 503  
Backend services unavailable  
Cheeck in later.


I wish they would call the guys from LFS and have them explain, how to make things work :- ))

Stig

PS. This is how that injury started way back in 72'  :  http://1drv.ms/1S6IFz1 (http://1drv.ms/1S6IFz1)

Oooooh groovy purple décor  ;D

LOL  same as HotKeys error 503, tells me to try later, have done tried many times, hopefully will be resolved for next race.

Same 503 error

I tried to log in but no go

The issue is not related to the update. They had some server meltdown. Bloody annoying but I'd be surprised if its not back up before 7:45

It's quite late here in SA already, so if we push it back 30, then maybe I will guve this one a skip, been reading Data all day.

Lets see what happens

Ant

It's working

10 minutes later.. Broken again

I just had a run with Chunky, then as I left to do something i got kicked

But I see in steam there are 331 people in game

Ok it is working foe me as well now
we go with the normal time as close as we can
i have just restarted the server, please can someone log on and stay on

no workie here :(

Error 503 - not been able to practice, server under maintainace (I think) when I've been trying to get on track.  Giving it a miss tonight.

Looks like this race is only for the elite

I just wanted to change my car, to test and I got kicked and tried to reconnected but unable too

Ah man, I enjoy racing

But this is crazy

Now I am in again

there are 4 of us on the server. if its broken again, I will reschedule

Broken here. Still.

Man they really need to get this server back end sorted out. It's been flaky as hell since the summer. I dread to think what the code looks like

Ant just rejoined, I wil restart the server for an extra 15 mins
if people still can't join we wil reschedule this event

EDIT:
Seems ok, people are joining, race is on

Cool :) I'm in

Come on Stig, I need someone to race!

Good driving guys, that was a fun scrap :)

Well done Gents

A race I was not looking forward too, changed my car in the last minute because I saw Mr Berger was flying, just used a base setup, but it worked out.

Sorry John if I got in your way

Thank you all
Ant

Two races, Ant, Chunky and Berger at the front, then Jim and I at the back after each fell off, only a second apart for
most of the race, brill stuff  :punk: We decided at one point to compare the brakes of the Swedish Tank  :tank:
against the German missile  :fencing: and , err, the Tank doesn't stop as well  :o

Results Posted

yes.. I may have slightly missed my braking point there, sorry fella. Good fight though, your pace was improving all race and that sodding volvo is so much quicker on the straights it makes passing it really hard. Looked like you were really having to man-handle it too :)

Yes, it's a barely controlled crash all race, it's not the most well balanced of cars, but I like it, the tyres seem to go off a bit
more than the others in the group so it usually gets slower towards the end, so I left it a bit more front grip
which worked out well, but was like herding cats for the first few laps  ;D

WOW what a race! grats Ant on the win you put up with a lot of pressure from both me and Reinhard well done!

sorry for the tap Ant, tried to stick a move down the inside as I had seen you had gone wide, braked late and unfortunately had no where to go:)

can't make the next one i am away on business, have a go one lads!

JP

Sorry Matt, I ran out of patience. Luckily I didn't run out of wine :-))

Stig

Glad you guys had a good race.

Tried again today still get error 503 back end service not available, this is stupid a sim you can not use even to practice on off line.
