Season 29 Historic Trophy - Round 6 – Charade

The Charade Circuit (also known as Circuit Louis Rosier and Circuit Clermont-Ferrand) is a motorsport race track in the Auvergne mountains in France near Clermont-Ferrand, the home of Michelin and Patrick Depailler.

The full time drivers can start to practice as soon as the server is available.  Reserve drivers can also join as soon as the server becomes available but must leave the server with 35 minutes of qualifying left, for a total of 5 minutes; this will allow any remaining full timers to join.  If there is enough space on the grid, the reserve drivers will be able to rejoin when there are 30 mins of qualifying left.  

Please restrict chat to pit messages including at the end of the race until ALL drivers still racing have crossed the line.

All races will be run at 60 frames per second – please use this patch 60fpsV2newmod (ftp://ukgpl3.dyndns.org/Replays/Archive/Season27/60fps/).

Drivers must complete 50% of each race to score.

Screen freeze. Very disappointing end to an enjoyable race.

Enjoying a nice battle with David and Clive before a screen freeze :(

Good track for these cars if I say so myself  ;)

i was in the freeze too

Screen freeze here too. Was ever so slowly edging away from Sam's far pokier BRM and was just starting to hit my lines when it froze :(

Epic fun in the baby '33  8)

Same for me.Freezing and very bad frame rate during qualy and race.Sommetime the FR was 15 in race,medium value 25.
Is very difficult to drive with this frame rate!

Clive, you could have wait the end of lap 7... so I would have some points :(

 

A freeze here from P3 with 2+ laps to go.  Good battles with Dave and Clive.

Really sorry David. 
I was not intending to get too close, or pass, at that point. I have looked at my replay and I think there was a little warp. Suddenly the gap between our cars vanished and I hit your gearbox  :(

Put in a report and let the mods take a look.

bad luck to all those who disco'd. That seems a lot of cars to lose in one race??

In lap 3 there was a mass disco of 7 drivers!

I am worried about the upcoming 69X race here...
Look at GPLRacer  blacklist... (http://forum.gplracer.eu/topic.php?id=50&)

The 69's raced here OK during a fun race I seem to remember.

Isn't 2/3rds being disco'd at once enough to generate a re-run?

You are right  ::)
