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

IMPORTANT

MichaW provided an alternative track layout used at ABB which we will adopt for this race. I have deleted his post's and my replies from this thread as they contained an alternative file download link. Please use the download link in the OP.

If you already have the ABB track please edit the .gdb file to say //RaceTime = 120 or we will get online miss match messages.

If anyone is able to contact Olo Ruso could they find out if he is taking part in this race and if he is, what # car he wants.

I did send him a pm but not had a reply.

You must be driving a different Porsche to me then Tony. :P

Just the same problem here as at Oschersleben, terminal understeer. Just cannot get the car to turn under power, wants to go straight all the time, feels like you have to wait forever before getting on the throttle to avoid running wide on corner exit. Still hate Porkas, lol.

PS: don't worry about contacting Olo, just change mine to #57, I'm fine with that.

I think I also have a non Wiltshire made pork pie (is that factory still there in Calne "we use everything but the squeek"). I don't suffer the understeer, or more likely I am going so
slow I don't notice it  ::) Not as challening as oschers, but needs "attention"

Looks like it. The company I worked for had their little factory down a small road sort of opposite the factory
and I would take my students to the Pub just off the roundabout at Beckhampton.
Eh them were the days

I probably will miss this week's races as my mother will have to undergo a heart surgery this week.

No time for practice and no brains for it.

Sorry guys.

Ah, ok. I had already checked this site. I thought you had found something else. I believe that Altbierbude got the GTL server web address (from Simbin?) and that is how they run the lobby.

IMPORTANT

So the Lobby is down. I'll keep checking and post here if it comes back online.

If there is no lobby at 20:00BST I'll call this event cancelled and re-schedule it for next Monday (I will drop the future event at Lausitz).
 
Keep watching here for updates.

Still no joy.
But as I am less than useless in these cars it might be safer for everyone if I miss this race.

Have fun guys.  ;)

Update..
MichaW kindly sent me my online key, but I already had that and had re-entered it anyway.
Tried to login again as before ...no joy
tried a new identity.........no joy
tried again and it said "Registration Successful"
but it still would not connect to the lobby and reverted to my old identity??
Tried to alter to the new ID but it would not accept a new name.

Too late now to fanny about with this, so I might have a large drink instead!  :-\ :-\

Hello, you currently have 2 lobby accounts, evilclive2 and evilclive3, both created earlier. When logging in, the logfile says, wrong PW
Could it be that you are messing up something?

Post by: Dimitar Dulichki on July 06, 2020, 11:44:54 PM +0100
I was a little surprised here by my pace. I was so slow with this car and track combination at Altbierbude, so i didn't expected anything to be exact. Little by little i started feeling the car better, especially after i discovered some setup online, which was better than mine. At the qualifying after taking off some fuel from the tank i broke my personal best 3-4 times and took the fourth position.

At the start i think Daz collided with Manfred, and Micha had some problems as well, so i was the leader now. Dan was able to overtake me in one of the slowest corners, but few laps later i took the lead again. And after i started to dream about podium here, i made a mistake at the last chicane, even though i knew it is a problematic one from Altbierbude's event... After that i was at P5 but Coyote unfortunately made the exact same mistake so i progressed to P4. After that i gave absolutely everything i had and the car was closer to Micha in P3. 1 second in Q and 0.5 seconds in R, so i was quite surprised with that pace. After Micha made 5-6 seconds lead to me, i just lost focus for a brief moment and totally lost the braking for Sheivlak corner and smashed the car at the barriers. After the contact the car jumped into the crowd (fortunately no one is hurt, which is a miracle :D ) and after 1 minute of searching for a path to return to the track, the car just stuck at one place and it was unable to move from there.

I am really sorry to take a DNF here, after the great opportunity at the beginning, but this is racing. I can blame only myself.

Congrats to Manfred for the great win and recovery, for Daz for the podium and Fastest lap of the Race and to Micha for the podium as well.
