Hello,

I'm looking to participate for this race.
Tad new here, though, what can I do to get a grid slot?  ;D

Hello

Yannick,

Your registration is now processed so you should be able to view the password.

The Honda drives like a lawnmower with jet engine, I have never driven such a terrible unpredictable thing before...
When the tires get a little grip, the braking behavior changes completely.

I didn't bother doing any practice, its an Eagle at the Glen - Iv'e done thousands of laps and I have a very nice old setup.
I don't know which brand of thinners I was sniffing when I made that setup but it was terrible...!
I only did one qually lap with 20 gals and resigned to be last, Cookie pushed me but I managed it. he he he.
Grats to Tris et al, impressive times at the top and grats to all finishers.
Thanks for organising... I'm off to Jewsons...

PS, Im sorry Dave for the bad rejoin, I assumed I was last. :-*

Incident avoided for a millisec :)

You obviously haven't tried any of my setups  :eek:

I still have trouble with the braking with this mod so I was trying to be careful.  But I got caught out at the Big Bend after about 5 laps (when the tyres were getting warmer???) and I got a snap oversteer and I skidded off. Thankfully I could continue and I had a grandstand view of David and Doni disappearing into the distance. The race settled down and after a while Doni appeared in my mirrors. I was looking forward to a bit of a battle when I noticed my shifter was coming loose. I reached down to tighten it up and promptly drove off the track  :wetfish: After a shift-R and S&G I was miles behind so I just tried to bring the car home in one piece to hopefully score some points.

Grats to Tris on the win with some scorching fast laps and to Yannick for keeping him honest. A useful podium for Uli which maintains his position at the top of the championship table. Grats to Dave on the Privateers win, the championship table looks interesting.

Watkins is always a beautiful track
Some misunderstanding in my race, sorry bennet68 (this is nick but I don't know who is  :angel: ) for the hit but I saw you went wide and I thought you saw me..
Other problem was with Girard, you have slowed down suddenly in the straight so was impossible for me to avoid you

68 mod is good but I hate wings and I buyed GPL for that reason ;D Tried with no wings but the McLaren was difficult to drive, with wings 11-9 it was much better and better lap time also

@Mod

After a mistake I have used the reset and relative stop&go, just now I read that was no possible for pro, so please exclude me from this race, sorry

Congratulations Tristan on your perfect hattrick, grats Yannick, 
I made a new pB but had no chance against the Ferrari superiority - to much, to fast ;)
I‘m very happy with my lucky third. Consistency could be much better if Yannick didn‘t hit  ::) my back at the 90th.
THX to the backmarkers, almost all of you made a very good job, even in practice - thank you very much!
Nice that there was a full grid and a classic track again. Thanks Admins!

RA301 or RA302 (who only did 2 race laps in the real life which ended by Jo Schlesser death)

During the race, I made a big mistake on lap 1 at the loop and I restarted on last position ...

Then it was better and I overtook several cars until I rejoined Doni's car.
My Brabham was better on braking points but Doni's BRM was faster on straights.
I made several tries to overtake Doni but each time I have to brake hard or to go on the grass to avoid the contact. Unfortunately it happened on last turn before start line...
Sorry Doni but I had nowhere to go.

I am surprised to see how the Ferrari were so fast on this track.

   

sad to miss another round here due to illness

Alessandro, so sorry for taking you out like that. I was so busy watching Alain's blue Eagle swooping down on me in my left hand mirror, I completely missed you in my right one. You made me jump so much I almost pulled the steering wheel off the desk. Please accept my apologies.

This is so much fun! As a newbie to online racing I'm mightily impressed by the speed of you guys - awesome. I'll certainly be watching your laps in the replay to see where I'm going wrong.

I'm also discovering the fine art of being a back-marker. Apologies once again to Alessandro. I'll have to put this down as part of my training. Lesson learned.

Thanks to Alain for a few laps of dicing with each other.

Oh, Tobodestroyer is me. Pete Bennett.

Oh, Tobodestroyer is me. Pete Bennett.

Pete being a backmarker is a ongoing process for the better  ;)

The best thing to do is keep your line and stay predictable - and the faster guys will find their way to pass you.
Worst thing are unpredictable stress actions - moving to one side - the fast guy wanted to pass you there...

No problem Pete! it happens!  :)
My fear was I were too hasty there, so I re-watched by different views the replay, because I did not have problems and I were able to restart, but you have had to reset, sorry for that

 :(

I hope you’ll be better soon !

Hello friends

Difficult race, another one :)

The EAGLE makes a huge noise but doesn't move forward, it's weird :)
The start is hard, I quickly lost several places, I left the track several times but luckily managed to finish with 2 laps less.

Well done Tristan and on the podium, thank you for the Tobodestroyer race and thank you to the organizers.

thx gets better already ;)

Alain,

I have just looked at the replay when our cars touched on Lap 37. I believe you slowed up to allow me to take the position (fighting over 10th place!). I saw you car was off track and I probably could have given you a little more room to rejoin. It was a very courteous thing to do. If that had not happened it would have been an interesting last few laps.

Hello billy

It is me who hurts my overtaking while passing in the grass, the braking my offset to the right.
When I return to the track with speed without being able to do otherwise, I touch you, it is normal in this case to give back the place obtained incorrectly.

This is the Gentleman spirit of GPL :)

See you soon

Sorry to no show for this race, but we have moved our musical group practice on tuesday so it will difficult that I'll show for the rest of the season. Anyway I'm happy to see a full grid.
Ciao

Maybe it would be better you put me as a reserve to give room other drivers.
Thx
