I may not be able to do the results until Monday. Title: Re: RRE Season 3 (2016) Race Room Masters Series - Hungaroring - Nov 6 Post by: Chunky on November 06, 2016, 08:22:29 PM +0000 PC keeps rebooting while in games !! very frustrating as I have tried all stress tests and nothing comes up.
Ordered a new power supply so figures crossed its that shame as i was looking forward to this race Title: Re: RRE Season 3 (2016) Race Room Masters Series - Hungaroring - Nov 6 Post by: goldtop on November 06, 2016, 09:44:12 PM +0000 Hard luck John, hope you get that sorted out soon.
That was one of the toughest races I've had :sweatdrop: I thought I had the legs on Mark from our quali times so was hoping I could just pace it home without too much trouble......some chance! I had to concentrate on my exits all race hoping I didn't mess any up but eventually selected 3rd instead of 2nd out of T1 and Mark had me into T2 ::) Wasn't sure I'd be able to fight back but after a couple of laps I just managed to get a run down into the final series of corners to regain the lead. Had a couple of laps of hard pushing and just managed to hold on for the final drag to the line. Well done Mark! That was excellent racing considering how close we were all race. Top stuff 8) Title: Re: RRE Season 3 (2016) Race Room Masters Series - Hungaroring - Nov 6 Post by: spanner on November 07, 2016, 12:10:35 PM +0000 If your running w10 john, and Picnic in the past has said sometimes his PC would restart randomly even if he was racing, then you can tell it to schedule restarts out of core hours i.e when your racing. But then I've never had it happen to me.
That was pretty intense! I also was expecting GT to disappear off so wasn't trying to hassle him too much accept in the first few laps as always ;) but was seemingly keeping it about second between us with the gap slowly changing depending on who messed a corner up missed there braking! Was surprised to still be there after 20mins and had to think hard to make sure that really did say halfway! Wasn't always easy to follow so close round here so 9tenths seemd ot be a good gap werei can drive how I want and not get too fixated. Only managed to get down the inside into turn 1 once but then had to give back. Was noticing that you were getting out wide in the finally corner a lot as your tyres were going off which helped me stay with you so was hoping for the same on the last lap but you kept it tight then seemed to not accelerate as well (kurbs?) so almost hit the back of you as we headed to the line. Pretty tight in the end lol. Wasn't expecting much from the race so seeing the gaps behind did surprise me. good fun though Title: Re: RRE Season 3 (2016) Race Room Masters Series - Hungaroring - Nov 6 Post by: picnic on November 07, 2016, 01:25:39 PM +0000 If your running w10 john, and Picnic in the past has said sometimes his PC would restart randomly even if he was racing, then you can tell it to schedule restarts out of core hours i.e when your racing. But then I've never had it happen to me. Not sure I've had W10 do an update in the middle of a race but it certainly has done one just before when I popped out of the room to get a drink. I do have an issue with RRE that when I first go on track the screen will go black for 3 or 4 secs. It then carries on as if nothing happened, except I've usually collided with a wall by then!Title: Re: RRE Season 3 (2016) Race Room Masters Series - Hungaroring - Nov 6 Post by: frex on November 07, 2016, 04:31:11 PM +0000 Spent the whole race chasing SRW and/or Larry, and really enjoyed it, thanks chaps. But seriously - a slow-down penalty incurred at the second corner of the race for spinning off to the outside..? Ah well, serves me right for using shadows as brake markers - they don't stay in the same place.. :laugh:
Congrats podium. |
