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.

Last of the series at Suzuka next in this series.
Still unsure of next series cars. I would really like to use the F1 90's cars
they are a hoot  ;D

Lol couldn't have gone any quicker..! Didn't do much practice, but I'm sure you didn't either so I think we were well matched. Also didn't have time to get on tonight until race start so a bit unfamiliar with the track initially - I was braking way too early at some corners, sorry that you nearly rear-ended me a couple of times. You shouldn't have slowed out of the last corner though - if I had realised it was the last lap I wouldn't have gone past!

Good fun though, thanks to you and Bill for turning up.

I'm not convinced. Slow cars are easy to race wheel to wheel, and fun to drive because of that. Fast cars with downforce and short braking distances are tricky because you have such short reaction times when things go wrong, and big accidents become more likely (especially in single seaters) - it doesn't matter how much fun they are on their own if it's hard to race them with others on track.

(I should say that I haven't even tried them as yet however, and I'm willing to give them a go if that's what everyone wants. I know that they get a lot of praise on the official forums.)

Could swing the other way and roll out the NSU again.

Currently, unless I get shoved in another direction, there will be a series for the DTM92/TOuring Classics
one for the New Group C , and one for the Zakspeed Capri.

Shout up if you want something else.

Yes I can go with that.

Thanks frex for setup will have a look at it. First time I’ve really enjoyed racing the KTM and was surprised how long it took before I was lapped! I felt I’d really got into the grove and put in a number of good consistent laps.

I really like the KTM here, the Pork is potentially faster, but I don't enjoy it the same.
