Example Setups:

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 (https://www.simracing.org.uk/index.php?pid=7) especially the
rules about in-game chat messages.
(3) You will need to install Race Room Racing Experience from Steam, and have the Euro and American Track Packs for this series (And maybe another
non pack track occasionally)
(4) Please exercise caution when pitting as some tracks have a speed limit.

(5) Please follow the SROUK guidelines for using kerbs etc. Please keep 2 wheels on the track surface (kerbs do not count as track surface)
Excessive cutting of corners will seen as cheating and the results may be altered to reflect this.

Anyone tips for the Ford Mustang?

Struggling with the uphill essess. Suspension is very bouncy, and sometimes not yet stabilized for the next corner.

Switching car is not a options, Will remain with the Mustang also for thé last race  ;D

Try stiffer dampers  ???.

I will be in the Mustang too for this race (your suggestion Birger, so I will blame you if it goes wrong  :D). Not really faring much better with it to be honest, like you struggling with the last uphill section, car does not like those crests, understeer & oversteer at the same time!!!!!! Good on the straights though.

I know  ;D but searching for the right balance) too stiff --> oversteer, too soft --> bouncy, understeer only on the climb


 >:D ;D good to hear, indeed very good on the straights

Server seems to be up, but I get "internal error" if I try to connect to it

Season Finale

Champion = Geoffers  :notworthy: :notworthy: :notworthy: :notworthy:

1st Runner Up = Frex  :clap: :clap: :clap:

2nd Runner Up = Massimo Bonni  :thumbup1: :thumbup1:

Well done all who took part  :clap: :clap: :clap:

That 3rd place was mine if I hadn't lost all those points to game crashes  :fencing:

Still pleased to have finished a race last night, ran on a monitor ( 3840x1440 @ 144Hz so still a high GFX demand ) and with replays turned off. Can' race Sunday so I'll try the VR again next Thursday with the replays off. Congratulations to the championship podium sitters and to all who provided some good entertainment and fair racing during the season. Nice to see some bigger grids to, hope this continues for whatever comes next.

That's odd. I've recently started from getting that too. Think I went to options, didn't change anything, went to attach to server and it worked. Most weird.

So, I went to settings and selected "Do not use an RD gateway server"
and so far it is working

Fun but tough race in the Mustang. Great on the bottom half of the track but really sketchy over the mountain, needed to be very restrained otherwise it will bite you.

Could not match Massimo's pace & he quickly disappeared into the distance. I was expecting a challenge from Leonardo but he retired early so had Pete & Birger chasing me hard for the first part of the race. Birger got through into 3rd & was pretty much matching my pace so I could not relax. Second half of the race I made several small mistakes & almost lost it completely with a big oversteery moment exiting Hell Corner. This allowed Birger to close right up but I just succeeded in keeping it all together over the last couple of laps to bring it home in 2nd.

Congrats to Massimo on a comfortable win & to Birger on an excellent 3rd place.  :clap: :clap:

Thanks Matt for the Series and congratulations to Series Podium Drivers. First time, in RRE and GTL,  that I have finished a race here for years - too heavy on throttle! Be sorry to retire my faithful Beemer for a while!  ;)

The P1 cars have terrible visibility problems sat low down behind those big front wheel arches. I have great problems seeing the corners.  ??? ::)

Great race from my side, didn't expect third place with such a grid. Second time at Bathurst after the GT3 race. Didn't know this track before entering simracing, but really love this track.

Qualified P5, but didn't had the best start, but was lucky in T1, the 3 cars in front of me pushed wide (Leonardo, Toni and someone else) and i could easily overtake them due to a better exit, so moved towards P4.

First uphill section with cold tires, so i couldn't go full throttle.
Leonardo was watching for a move i think, in T5/6. He went to soon on the throttle and banged against the wall, facing the wrong direction and needed to wait until all cars where passed.

For the first 10min i followed Pete, every lap i gave Pete 1.5sec in the uphill section but closed that down in the downhill and on the straights. Slightly Toni was catching us but when he was at 1sec, i made a move on Pete. Using the speed of the Mustang i placed myself next to Pete on Mountain Straight going in to Griffins bent and made the overtake (i think Pete backed off  ;)).

Afterwards i pulled slightly away from Pete and Toni on the straights. And surprisingly i remained my gap of 7sec towards P2 (Geoff), until i saw him at the exit of Hell Corner on the opposite side from the racing line  ;D. Gap was 3sec but couldn't close it down.

Congrats Massimo and Geoff!!!


Indeed, but from Suzuka onwards i'm mastering the car. Even at the second crest of Conrad Straight i had trouble to remain straight  ;D.
 



Indeed, happy to see 10+ grids. if this remains it will also attract more people towards SROUK (from the league post from 3sector forum)

My little brother is also again more intrested in simracing "F1 game". But i forced him to download RRE  ;D, raced together in some Rookie servers, but for now he is still racing with a controller. So he is now looking for a race wheel and peddals. After that i hope he will join us.

thanks to all I hope to run here again ... come on slowly there will be more and more participants !! the track was challenging in the central part ... I had also tried the mustung! on the flying lap it was faster than bmw but on the pace it wore the tires a little too much .. so I chose a car with a slower but constant pace .. congratulations to the champion Geoff !!

Hate Bathurst, but actually enjoyed that one, mostly chasing Matt and Vitess. Congrats Geoff for the Championship!
