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.

Never really got on with this class, cars are all so different.

Are they? The Nissan is usually faster, but handles like it's not connected to the road, the Big beemer is easiest
but not so nimble as the little beemer, And the Volvo is just good fun, so I suppose they are different
But isn't that the idea? In other groups the cars are all different, like the 911s are different to everything else?
I am not understanding perhaps.

It is possible that the Nissan will get removed form the group for these events, see how it goes...

I'll join this race just to make sure, that everyone else has someone they can beat :- ))

Servers are  down for maintenance  :o - bang goes my race practice.  :'( :rockon:

Can't you practice off line Bill? What car are you using?

Raceroom has been down for maintenance but is now back up with a big update so best make sure you allow plenty of time to download before tonight's race.

good to know I'll head home early to install.  Seems like a fun combo, haven't touched these cars, cept for the E30 in DTM92.  Could be a fun challenge.

Not as far as I could see.

Using the E30 Group A.

See you there later.

Thanks for the heads up peeps, just the 2.3GB update! I see one of the fixes is to stop the results file screwing up if someone leaves early :)

Just updating now, no idea if I'll get in or not...

Well that's just great, I'm SOL, >:(  After update my fanatec wheel is shown as missing device in game menu no way to drive. I'll keep trying to sort it out, but doesn't look like I'll be able to join, was just on last night no issue, what a crock!

Screen froze on lap 1,  ??? ::)  had to dump it and reboot.

Hope everyone else had a good race.  :rockon:

Same here froze before turn 2, just plain frustrated.  I saw some fanatec description in the update list, didn't bother to read it, guess whatever they did screwed my setup. :helpsmilie:

Massive shame  :(

We had the makings of a great race there, with Stig, Bill, Carl. 2nd massive shame I thumped Pete into a spin in T2
which put us both behind  :hang: He managed to catch and pass some, so not a co,plete disaster, annoying all the same.

I took the limousine Beemer as there seemd to be a plethora of Swedish tanks, (which I normallly use)
Perhaps I should do what Tony does and only allow Nissan and baby Beemer to the people under 3 (not years of age...)
Little Beemer usually runs well, though It can be beat particularly at faster tracks.

Looked like some good racing up front (ish) thanks to all who showed up, or tried to  ::)

Shame about the contact at the start Matt, thanks for waiting. I'm sure it had nothing to do with it but I was so close to having no front left tyre at the end. The tyre app showed an empty flashing red rectangle for the last 2 or 3 laps. Was expecting it to go pop at any moment.

Eck found some speed for the race so I don't think I would have finished higher than 3rd even without the contact. Mind it Dieter hadn't spun and let Mark passed I'm not sure I would have caught them up but their battling cost them some time.

I rarely do any pre-event testing and that's not going to change for a while with my dodgy knee. Very happy with 2nd on the grid as I limited myself to one flying lap to give the knee the best chance of surviving 30 mins of racing :( I picked the Volvo as I have one parked on my drive and I'll continue to make pseudo random selections whatever cars you choose. Sometimes it'll be the same as everyone else / the fastest / the slowest - I won't know until race time.

Nice race - chased Eck in the first half; Spanner and Pete in the second, fun all the way.

Congrats podium.

I usually check out things out well ahead of racestart, but unfortunately yesterday was the exception. I only just had time to DL the update and entered the race just before takeoff..... only to realize that my G25 Wheel needed to have the driver reinstalled.

I'll NEVER be late again !

GOod man, we miss you Stig. well I do  ::)
