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.

The nice people at R3E have put the 95 Merc back in the server list, so we can run it again  :thumbup1:

Odd thing I noticed when going to do some practice laps in this car, I last practiced with it for the Oschersleben race (which was changed to the 2003 car) so wanted to load the setup from that session. However Oschersleben seems to have disappeared from the the setup menu, anyone else have this?

I couldn't see it either, however, it is called "Motorsport Arena Orchersleben" so perhaps I missed it?
I did a setup at Oshers and saved it, then went to Nurby and could load the Oschers one

Absent again, sorry. Just no spare time at the moment, hope to be back in a couple of weeks. Have a good one.

Is there room for a bit of door handling tonight?...  ;D

I'll be at the back anyway, I haven't turned a wheel for a while.

During the 1st 10 mins of practice the "let's throw Pete off everytime he changes up a gear with any lock on" was getting a bit monotonous. Finally started to get the hang of it but never thought I'd survive 15 laps without throwing it off somewhere. Well done Riccardo, kept the pressure on all race so no chance of a rest!

Terrible night, just couldn’t keep my car on the black stuff - finally wrecked it.  ::)

Not one of my better evenings racing.  ::)

Messed up every one of my qually laps so was at the back of the grid, made up places due to others errors in the early laps & ran 3rd pretty well keeping pace with Pete & Riccardo until the last 10 minutes. It all fell apart then & two crashes saw me finish last with a very sick car.  :(

Congrats to Pete, Riccardo & Eck.  :clap: :clap: :clap:

Horrible outing for me. Never felt in control as the car seemed so snap happy and ready to bite with no warning. On second lap I had to throw it off track at last chicane to avoid tail ending Riccardo. I spun out a couple of laps later smashing into the armco and quit out in disgust.

Well done pody  8)
