Put me down for this one :)

The cars feel great on this track, nice to be on a proper circuit again  :)

bah felt all chuffed with myself breaking into the 29's only to get quickly crushed by Jeff and Itamar pumping in some 28's  :o
Nice pace  :)

Surprised there weren’t more on the praccy server for such a great track  ???

Was going to but fell asleep on the sofa! Its not like i dont know the track!

bit different in these cars though as you need to keep the momentum up around the back half of the circuit or you lose tons of time.
Looking forward to this track.

Remember first lap contacts are penalties! so no bumper cars on cold tyres please.

These cars are great here, you can really attack the curbs.

Pete can you confirm that it will be the same 3 min 30 sec break time to 2nd race and 1 min 30 sec wait time in grid?  :)

I'd like to say yes but then I don't understand what the pause was between practice and qual last week. The only changes made to the config file were for the track and damage  ::)

Ok thanks )

Hello guys  :)

I'm not feeling very well so not sure if I will race tonight.
Although my best in the world wife is pushing me to race, I'm not sure.
Sorry for the late update. Had a crazy busy days.

I can't see any simracing.org.uk server in lobby despite I've the mod installed as I raced at Vallelunga and the track is an original one. Don't know what to think, but I guess it's too late to try to solve this matter, and given the fact I didn't ride a single lap on this track, I guess it's better if I jump this race. Have fun chaps :)

Check your filters, 12 others have found it OK.

Please delete me from the list of this champ. Thank you :)

NFSW, I'm so so so so so sorry.   :-\ :'(
I dont know why but you was 'floating' near me, like, you went far ahed and then very near me, i went for the left side from fear i will touch you and then you just sudenly was in front of me side ways becouse of me.
Im so so so so so sorry.  :-\ :'(
Maybe its part of my connection problems. sorry.
I took myself out of the race after i saw you entering the pit.

NFSW's car always does that. Think he's on WIFI?

No, Lan connection since a long time.
Itamar was the only other car I saw which had this warping ( I followed him the whole race 1), so I assumed the problem wasn't on my side...
So not sure what happened :(
After that my car was undriveable, but after a visit to the pits (where my mechanics fixed the car surprisingly fast) I continued and still finished on P12

Weird I always see your car warping, maybe its just me? But then the server on the 2nd race was a bit weird if you ask me, it was a bit micro-pausey, which it wasn't in the first race.

Just before that happened Itamars car was warping about, was hard to follow...good job he’s much quicker than me  ;) when you two suddenly crashed on the straight I knew it was the warp.

Epic pair of races tonight loved it  :) Qualified well both races which put me up the sharper end and was so glad to survive Lap 1 both times  ;D. Thanks to the patience shown by Alexey in race 1 and Nfsw and Itamar in race 2, especially when my cold rear brakes tried to turn me into a drift champion  :laugh:

Once my tyres and brakes warmed up I could relax a little and get into an attack rhythm. Had a ringside seat watching Fabri and fmg duke it out in race 1. Then as they fought and got a bit ragged I closed in on the fun and joined the fray. I got past Fabri after he ran a little wide and managed to fend him off to finish 6th.
Race 2 I had a race length chase of Fabri and Stefan for 3rd to 5th. But Stefan did such a good defence that neither of us could get past until Jeff caught us near race end. We did eventually but with Jeff climbing all over me I made an error at surtees that cost me all 3 places  :'(
Finished 6th and knackered!  :P

Great fun  8)

My Replay (https://www.dropbox.com/s/wwnh9m48wtipl2x/tcr_honda_type_r_equal%40ks_brands_hatch-gp_20181017222444?dl=0)

I'm on LAN to. but i have problems with the connection itself. I did in the past a lot of solutions, some of them worked for some time and then the problems came back. I'm going to pay a big some of money for a big fix in my house that maybe, hopefully, will be the last time and my connection will be stable.

When i and AC versions was yunger and my ping was stable 125 it was good times for me. Last 2 years ping to EU servers was increased to 150 due f..ng politics. In this time AC brings new inet clients syncronization and client smoothing alghoritm. And i begun to swimming in official sessions  (with many pilots in) , when i am  can not recognise an own car in turns due swimming feel and not stabil ( ramdom) understeer compared to lonely sessions or local server. I ended to racing in GTR2 sim because of that ... :-\
You guys do not read this. Just crying from the inability to change anything here.
I rememer only one codecs F1 early versions which not had such  far ( 8000+KMs to servers) distance connection problems..
PS Or may its better for me to start each race from last position ( without qualy and 100 laps of practise) and drive just for my fun? I will think about it.   :hang:
  

Anyway it was 2 great battles , with finish in pits both due no reason to continue out of points.
Very appreciated to all patient pilots ! This 2 races format in only for high class racers, good practiced before the race or genius like FMG. Still know that most of them are well suited for UKAC traditions. :)

PS frex, really sorry for lap14 1st race. In my video, I see you well, was inside, leaving good road space for you ( according my apps) and begun braking and turn 1 well too, IMHO. In target for not to cut it in grass. If you have a protest- please report it - let them do theyr buisennes  :)

did everyone survive paddock hill bend at the start of both races? Always a fearsome melee, even in the real world!  :o  i held my breath going through there like i do on a trackday  ;D

Looked clean from where i saw the races, though did see a couple of contacts at exit of surtees and on the straight 'pilgrims drop'

I was kippered after the intensity of race 1 so it was hard going to do it all again after a few mins gap. i took the rift off and gulped in fresh air just before the lights changed  :D  The Rift was very handy though here as sometimes i could just hear a car around me until i craned my neck out the side window to see fmg or fabri with their nose up the inside of my rear quarter :fencing:

No worries Alexey. No problem, no protest.

This is posted as a general reminder to all drivers and is not directly aimed at anyone in particular in this race or in previous races.

As gentlemen drivers it is an unwritten rule in sim-racing that if you knowingly cause an incident which adversely affects a fellow driver you should allow the victim to regain his place in front off you.

It should also be remembered that our rules do state this "Where a driver believes they are at fault for an incident, they may elect to impose a drive through penalty on themselves by entering the pitlane and driving the full distance down it at the speed limit without stopping at their garage for any work to be performed.
Such a drive through must be performed within a reasonable time after the incident, the rule of thumb being 3 laps.
A self-imposed drive through should be reported to the series moderator along with the incident, and will under most circumstances reduce or eliminate any positional penalty."

Thanks for reading  :thumbup1:

WT

Was happy with the first race, seemed to gain quite a few spots as others had issues but knew they would be coming back up. But coming down pilgrims drop i find nfsw across the track and picked the inside grass to try and go around, at full speed, so ended up going straight on and int othe gravel and dropping a few spots.

Was a bit too tired and after 10mins of the second race i was just circulating on my own. The constant fight against the understeer wasnt much fun which did ruin the driving experience a bit.

Nice big grid with some capable drivers last night! That meant i could only muster a 16th qualifying spot this time.
R1 start was ok, a lot of weaving from some drivers made it difficult not to collide at some point. Just by keeping a constant
pace throughout the race a managed a P9 at the finish.
Altough i changed my replay settings it did not capture this race, only the second one.

R2 was quite hard work starting from p2 i had ChrisR diving up the inside into Paddock Hill. Then i had a almost race long
battle with Fabri and MJ, who where actually faster than me. Fabri was rather gentle with me and did not force his hand.
With a lap or two left i clipped the grass under braking for Sterlings. Fabri, MJ and Jeff came past. Then i found out it is
maybe easy to gain on your opponent, but very hard to make a pass with these cars on this track.
All in all it was a lot of fun. Thanks all.

Ohh and team Legends Racing on top  8)
