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.

Hope to join this one  :)

I'm hoping to tag along too if it's OK?
Bought this game last week so now I can hopefully get back into sim racing again.

Wow nice one Leuven, long time no speak. Come join the fun :)

 :thumbup1:
As you can Imagine, I'm very rusty at sim racing and have never raced this circuit or game.
What sort of lap time should I be aiming for roughly?
I managed mid 1:25s after a few laps practice earlier.

Absolutely no idea  ::) I've only raced this track myself once before and that was in KTM XBows. You can always run the Leaderboard from the game and see what times people do on that.

The leaderboard shows a 1:23.7 so I have 2 seconds to find.  ;)

I think we raced the KTM on the "Bridge" layout so this will be a new circuit for most of us.

Oh! Didn't realise there were multiple layouts. So sort of new track for me too as GT has pointed out.

Some of it will be familiar, but this variant has less turns, and the last corner is much faster
and shortcuts the tight corners we have used before. I like the flow of this one
there is a left hander after a tunnel that may catch you out, otherwise it flows nicely.

Can't make this one now as my monitor is dead  :hang:

 :'( Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Sorry Matt I won't be driving tonight either, too knacker had busy day, making use of good weather. We're having number 3 grandson and girlfriend for weekend; expect I'll also miss Monday's race as well.

How do you chat in game?  ::)

Welcome back LEuven  :thumbup1:
Chat default key it "T" in game, but only possible while in the car on track
One of the little nuances still missing from this otherwise excellent sim

Awesome pace up front, both consistently lapping quicker than that leaderboard time posted earlier!

Sadly I couldn't really hear my engine at the start and found it bouncing off the rev limiter (twice) and this did some damage to it  :-[ Nice 15 to 205 red bar. Mind you even with a perfect car I wasn't going to keep up  :'( Nice return Leuven  ;D

Next week it's GTO time  ;D
Unfortunately I am doing penance in London, so can do server, but can't join.
If someone would be kind enough to join at 19:45 to start the clock, that would be cool  8)

I chose a free track to make things easier for any newcomers.
I was hoping to see Roger this week, shame, ah well maybe next week. These GTO cars are not as nuts as they used to be
but are a hoot to drive with a little extra rear grip.

Thanks phspok, tried "C", "Tab", "Enter" but not "C" and not in game.  :whistling:

Shame about your race picnic. The old "quirks" of online simracing issues are still around then.  :cursing:

Was sort of hoping not to get pole really, so I could just ease myself back in to the swing of things.....
Getting chucked in at the deep end with pole was a blessing in disguise anyhow as I probably won't have been able to pass frex with that pace and his relentless and constant harassing. :sweatdrop:
Great drive, even when you were sideways you didn't seem to lose any ground and the odd time I managed to open up the gap to just over a second, you either clawed it back or I made a little error, just couldn't pull away, felt like I had a tow rope on the back of my car.

Is it possible to watch replays in this game?

So that's Craig when he's "rusty" - God help us when he gets his eye in and he's up to speed..  ;D

For me that was just 30 minutes of qually laps, push all the time and no let up. Like last week, a bit untidy at times, apologies for that and a few off-track moments, but damn that was fun! And yes, this layout is new to me too, not driven it before tonight, but it makes an already great track even better imho.


Ah, I wondered why you slowed before T2 - I nipped ahead, then held you up through the corner I think, sorry for that!

Thanks all, congrats to Craig.

Replays are in one of the initial game screens, it's a movie camera icon top right.
then you select the one you want, and "run" I think.

Cheers, will look after.
I remember when I used to buy a game and take the game manual to work and have a flick through it..... :'(

Are there options/settings that are recommended to use?
As apart from graphics settings and and a slight tweak of the wheel ffb its pretty much out of the box.
