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: Note early race start. Don't be caught out by the green light. The light's seem to go red, red, red, red, green, bright green. Suggest drivers use start countdown to avoid jumping the start. Cuts will be off for this race.

Ahh, forgot there was a 2nd race... As I was stuck in a hotel in Brum, I decided to have a go with my lapdog
using keys... didn't go too well, so after going off on lap 2 I quit to not be a moving roadblock  ::)
I should have joined race 2 and maybe got another 8 points. I might try a joystick next week as I am
yet again stuck in a hotel, this time in London
