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.

I see we've got a mixture of start times again, this event is 8pm UK while next week's is 7:45. I don't personally really mind which it is but it would help if it was consistent  :-\

Ta for the nod Pete. they should all be 19:45 - 20:15 - 20:30
it's because we changed it one week, and copy keeps sticking it back in
I need to be more carefull.

Well blow me! I was enjoying that all the way through. Where was everyone? I fell off on the last corner of the last lap loosing 10 secs or so, till then it i was 30secs ahead. Didnt do too much to the default setup tbh.

LOL - I hate these cars and was late on the scene. Did an out lap and one Q lap, where I fell off. That was my total practice! Disappointed to lose 2nd on the last lap to Frex but I got in to a mess with my braking and just couldn't stop locking up and getting sideways over the last 4 or 5 laps. Still as I wasn't going to even make the effort, so job was a good'un  ;D

Only practice was on eline at race time. Couldn't keep the Audi in a straight line on corner entry so
went with the overpowered Ford, kept losing it, and was dropping further back with no chance
of recovery, so left and did some holiday planning.

Not sure whether to run these or the Gr5 any more, attendance is very low, the only cars that get
any attention are the NSUs, so might run NSU then TOuring Classics, DTM92, and Procar perhaps.

Where was everyone?

I was trying to keep pace with you in the early laps, but then misjudged one of the fast right-handers and got a slowdown penalty. I then dropped back into the battle between Matt and Pete. Matt left early, and then Pete went wide on the last lap to gift me P2.. Low turn out (again), but good fun (again).

Congrats Spanner.

Well my week has been utterly fantabulous, two days in enforced darkness (like a mushroom, without the bovine scat). Obviously meaning, no racing at all...  >:(
