*Drivers should avoid getting too far behind or too close to the driver in front
*Approximately 20 seconds before crossing the start line the pole sitter should slow down to a speed of no more than 50mph (80km/h)
*Each following driver shall close up directly behind the driver in front also maintaining a speed of no more than 50mph (80km/h)

*Each following driver should only accelerate when the driver directly ahead does (they do not have to wait until crossing the start line)
*No overtaking is allowed before crossing the start line at the completion of the formation lap

I think we have this combo before...like 1000 times.

you cant have too many races at Donington!

This will be the last AC fun race before the new F3 series begins.

Dont forget there is a compulsory pitstop in this race

practice server is up for tomorrow nights race

Can someone please tell me the server name? :)

simracing.org.uk

I think!

Thanks Geoff! I had to switch to servers with missing files. It turns out i need few cars. The Corvette and the Porsche.

PS: I see that this is from the Dream Pack. Can i just use the other cars? Will i see when someone is with Porsche or Corvette?

Yes you will need to purchase the packs with the Porsche & Corvette in.

Have you got your wheel sorted now?

Thanks again. I had to reinstall the windows as i thing this can be a driver or system related problem. So far so good, but i need to drive at least 2-3 races to be sure.

Hi Guys,
I will make this one! .. I shared it  with some Italian friends maybe someone else will join too...

See you on track later.
Cheers
Alberto

hope to join trying out new vr headset,

What did you get Bob?

Hi!
just got in, but got kicked out just after doing the pitlane ...
i made few laps in practice yesterday withou problems.
Any hint?

might have been while i was resetting the server?

now it seems ok ... ;)

Oops, sorry my fault. Being fairly new to AC, I saw a little icon by your name & wondered what it did. Turns out it was the 'kick' icon.  :surrender:

Hihi, you found new ways to win Geoff?  :P

Had a nice race. Had not done practice with this combo, but knowing the track and the Vette I could muster 4th on the grid. This lack of practice did however ment my tire pressures where off. I saw a Ferrari and a 911 at the horizon with the Vette of Geoff just in front of me. His pace was to high to manage an attack for a long time. Just after the pitstops I was on his tail again. Finally I could do a pass into the Melbourne hairpin with two laps to go. It was a nice tussle Geoff.  :)

Yes good race Stefan.

Did not have quite the pace to stay with the first two but in the early stages I was able to open a gap to Stefan in 4th. Made one mistake which let Stefan through then he made a mistake which swapped the order back again. Had not done a pitstop before in AC so had decided to do a proper refuelling stop, had enough for 15 laps to start with & refilled with the same amount, this probably took longer but it gave me an idea how stops work. After Stefan had stopped I had a couple of seconds lead over him, but he was now faster & closed in & when I slightly messed up the chicane he got past into the Melbourne Hairpin. So had to settle for 4th. Must stop giving you positions in the closing laps Stefan!  ::)

Congrats to the podium.  :clap: :clap: :clap:

:D :D :D,

I Always enjoy a race round Donington, been spectating there for 30 years (and been round it on a push bike a few times). I had a close battle for the first part of the race, then things got a bit spread out during the second half.

That was the last AC fun event for a while, the first round of the Sunday night F3 series starts in a fortnight. I will get the practice server up later this week

Sorry not to make it, unforeseen circumstances.
