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.
(3) The AI control should be turned off so that you have control of the car at all times, including pitting. Your player file should therefore read
Autopit="0"
Force Autopit Off="1" // Forces autopit always off
No AI Control="1" // AI never has control over car
If you still finding pitting problematic, experience tells us that its less to do with positioning and more to do with approach speed. A slow approach to pit crew chief has proved most reliable.

Special Notes: None

Roguk unfortunately used the Pirin Fiat for a 4th time in this race and hence is disqualified, sorry Rog.

I quite enjoyed these two races in a masochistic sort of way ::)
I felt I should use up some Simca drives, and they are ptretty horrible  :o
Snap oversteer r us. Almost managed to match Erling's times, but kept falling off
so poor result in both races.

Enjoyed these two races too. Love these small cars.
First one a smooth race in the TC Corsa, second on fun but a weak setup and some more faults  ::) :P

Sorry Roger for loosing a well deserved start-finish-victory.

Thanks for organizing - cu next week.

Didn't have time to prepare for two different cars, so like Matt I decided to stay with the Simca, in my case getting rid of my two remaining drives. Tried every conceivable thing in setup, to tame that wayward rear end, but pretty much to no avail. Only succeeded in making it very slightly less suicidal.  On cold tyres, this car is pure poison. On warm(er) ones, it's very lightly diluted poison..

Surprised at the start of race 1 to jump two of the Pirins - so surprised in fact, I forgot to shift into 2nd, and promptly lost the advantage again..  ::)   Swapped places with Roger a couple of times, but couldn't do anything about Tony & Clive, so 3rd place it was.  Grats to Clive & Tony.

Matt set a faster lap than me in race 1, so when he stayed with the Simca too for race 2, I had my work cut out for me.  Ahead of Tony on the Grid, but he went past before T1 on L1, only to run wide with Clive a couple of corners later, elevating me to an unlikely 2nd.  Kurt got past, but later went off, handing me back the place.  Clive & Tony soon caught up, making an attempt to pass.  Clive made it stick, while Tony went off.  Matt breathing down my neck behind, so had to drive to my absolute max, to maintain my position and stretch the gap a little.  3rd again, until Roger's DQ - commiserations for that; looked like a flawless drive.  Grats to Clive on the win & Tony for completing the podium.

Two enjoyable races, and really liked the track - wouldn't mind revisiting it again, just not in the Simca..  ;)

Noted. I'll see if I can slip it into Season 19. Saw MotoGP use this track but they go the other way around.
