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: No start lights that I can see. Use Auto-countdown please.

That's great to hear, Clive! I wish I had thought about it sooner, considering I knew it from rFactor, but for some reason I thought it wasn't an option in GT Legends  ::)

No excuses for not getting on the podium now  ;D

I did some testing with the Aston and Ferrari. Very tricky track, mostly driven in 2nd gear. Initially thought of using 1st as well, but it's pointless - it's just too long. I actually made the gears slightly longer on the Ferrari, so 2nd and 3rd would be more suitable for all corners. With the Aston, it's 2nd gear all around, except in that fast left near the end of the lap.

I uploaded my setups to the online database, if anyone needs a (presumably) decent base.

I really should thank all of those who suggested solutions to my problem over the past months. I guess that is part of the support of the on-line community?

I am truly grateful for the offer of Folders/files/settings etc, and most of all for your patience, as I trawled through a maze of frustration.

Monday night with the No Grip series was a revelation as I had a steering wheel that felt so near to normal, with a degree of "weight" to it, that it took me most of the race to adapt!

I am planning to avoid any more glitches/screw-ups with software/hardware/rig/cables/shoe size/soft fruit/ washing detergent or anything else for the forseeable future. But upon reflection, I have never planned any of those in the past and it still happened ??!!??

Hoped that this circuit would grow on me but unfortunately it didn't. Far too slow and twisty for my taste.

Still, the final three rounds are at fast flowing old school tracks. Just hope a few more turn up  ::)

The one race I should have done this year, based on the track.  Couldn't however, as I'm sitting in a German hotel room, on the way to the Alps for another real life driving adventure, in a not entirely reliable car.

We will wait for some footage Erling! :)

A low turn out, but great battles with Dimitar in all 3 races, so check them out on his live stream recording.

Very tricky to drive this track in cars like these, with such old school gearing and having to use very low revs, but it made for an interesting challenge. Ruined my rear tyres as usual, particularly in the Ferrari, but the pace was there so happy about the result.

Wow. What can i say. Our battle in race 3 was world class without any doubt as the battles in races 1 and 2 were superb as well. We had amazing fun with Hristo and these races will be part of my memory for a long time.

Grats to H on the victories and Matt and Clive on their podiums.

Sorry for not filling up the grid. Late at home and no practice at all.
Tried shortly the Jag - far off the pace - and found out that I confused Jyllandsringen with Roskilde Ring  ::)

So a new track for me but I could imagine that Jyllandsringen would be a really nice track for smaller cars...
