Championship Standings (https://www.simracing.org.uk/smf/index.php?action=LM2R&group=584&theme=4)

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.

Not sure  ??? Do you have any VRPs? Are you logged into your account?

I find best way to purchase items is to start up the game and then click the store button rather than trying to go to the store site from your browser.

Anyways, I'm having a busy time atm and too tired to race this evening fellas so have fun.

Was even more off the pace than usual  ???  must be missing something there. Tried default setup, then more front grip
less wing/more wing. Kept falling off in the race, and was then too far behind with no chance to catch so quit in disgust  :scared:

Well that was a bit of a lonely race for me,  :-\  Though the xbow is not one of my favs, I do enjoy Laguna Seca.  I've tried all sorts of things with setup to get the car to feel more comfortable to drive ( less snap oversteer and throttle understeer ) but in the end I just soften the bars a bit and adjust my driving to what ever it takes to keep it straight.  Not ideal.  I'm sure others have a better understanding how to dial in the setup from what factory is, but for me it's all white knuckle anticipation.

Judging by the fact you out qualified everyone by a second or more and I don't think anyone's dialled it in better than you have. If they have I hate to think how much quicker you can go compared to the rest of us. Spanner kindly gave me a setup that was a tad more stable than the default but even so I still fell off one out of every 3 or 4 laps, even when not pushing hard. These things certainly show up my lack of talent  :'(
