Can’t join the server it says too many slots have been allocated for the number of spaces available. It needs resetting with a smaller grid.
It loads up fine until you are about to join then dumps you back to the lobby.

Awesome combo as suspected, these cars are great on this famous circuit  8)
1:51.5 so far but I was 6/10ths up before fluffing ‘the mountain’

Offline I might add

Really winds me up that the server can't be bothered to tell me I've been a silly boy, why can't it tell me  ::)

Restarted with 18 slots, hopefully it's happy this time.

Sooo, anyone else racing here, or just me ?  :whistling:

Takes me back to our classic races here in GTL and P&G, the sweeping turns are made for vintage cars. Loved driving my old 911 around here a couple of years back.  8)

I'll be there. Did a few laps on the server, and also loving this combo!

Blimey, nice time Frex  :o I thought I was really pushing and was quite happy with my time compared to the AI doing 1:50-51’s. Though noticed you had a lot less fuel onboard which gives me a tad more optimism  :P

Yeah, only about 8 laps worth of fuel and quite a lucky lap to be honest. Doubt if I'll get near that time again..!

Hmm seems I need to find another 3 secs per lap tonight  :o was out last night so haven’t been able to get some more laps in. Will try and join a bit earlier than I normally manage just to get the lap count up!

Sorry I had to bail with about 15 mins remaining, didn’t want too but my eyes were being murdered by the Rift and it just got too painful  :'( it also meant I thumped the tyre wall and bent the steering. Love the rift for the amazing immersion but I seem to be able to only handle the brightness for about half hour  :(

Low turnout was disappointing for such a great combo but was pleased Stefan joined us at the death to make it 6 cars.   :thumbup1:

I managed to hold onto the pack for quite a while until I got a pendulum spin two laps on the trot at the hairpin before the mountain  ::) then chased Stefan for ages before forced to retire.

Apology to Armando for the clumsy attempt at letting you past - I saw you a long way back behind me and was trying to check if you were one of the leaders, but went off track while doing so. And then slowed right down in probably the worst place possible to let you by, only to then realise that we were in fact fighting for position..  ::)

Chased back after you, but went off a couple of laps later and lost a wheel. Ah well, that was huge fun while it lasted! Congrats podium.
