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: None.

Results and replay now posted.

Was quite enjoying these as far as It went. Race 1 I showed as disqualified, though I have no idea what if anything I did
so left to rejoin, but the race had started. Race 2 was ok with the Toyo. Race 3 with the tina was fun, though I seemed to be
so slow I got bored after a while and left to do some real life stuff.

Well... I need to say it one more time - Another three wonderful races. :D I say it so often but here at UKGTL we always deliver.

I chose the fastest car i had for race number 1 but unfortunately made a spin in lap 1 while chasing Geoffers. I was not pushing too much, maybe i just lost some concentration there.

After driving pretty well the next laps i was able to melt the gap to the podium. Just at the end i was able to catch Geoff and Coyote while they were with slower cars and we started the next great battle with Geoffers. He had more power on the straights with his Mazda, i had more grip on the corners with Ford. At the end Geoff was the winner there as i made one small mistake and went to the grass.

The second race was a little bit lonely until 3 laps before the end. Daz was fighting for the win with Ziu and i was in P3 after Geoffers made an early mistake.
Unfortunately Daz made a big mistake and i was now in P2. He was 1-2 seconds faster per lap. Just at the last few corners he was just behind me and after the last corner i was so lucky that my car was positioned good that he couldn't make the best possible acceleration. At the end we finished in just 1 hundred of the second.

Race 3 was the best. 4 cars were battling for the win but at the end Ziu was magnificent and was able to take the victory from P4 at some point of the race.
I was driving with Geoffers and Daz's pace but couldn't match Ziu's.
We had great battle and chase this time with Daz for the last place on the podium as Geoff was a little bit forward. And at the end i was just a little bit more consistent as Daz made one small mistake that gave me the podium. Right at the end he was faster but fortunately for me there were no more laps to go.

Congrats to the winners and the podium guys :)
