Title: UKGPL Season 38 Fun - 69X - Solitude - Aug 22

Season Break 38/39 - Fun + Test – 69x - Solitude


This fun race takes us to the Solitude track near Stuttgart in Germany.  
The Solitude race track was used predominantly for motorcycle racing. Not as daunting as the Nuerburgring, but it’s quite a challenge with a deceptively fast back section

This track had problems that hopefully got solved by the new
Track Gap Freeze Fix Patch v.09 (http://srmz.net/index.php?s=1d55bf5d3d0f891eb7da6c3f35d87a26&showtopic=14247)
Put the .xml in the ../GPLSecrets/GEM+/Options/ folder and activate it in GEM for all mods!

Some success at the track, despite a couple of glitches on the track, from numerous mini-glitches in the graphics.  Exited the track during practice to refire both X and P, but no change. :-\  1998 framerate skills were needed, with time enough for a single grid spotting fling.

Having found my Ferrari's sweet spot, I was able to explore the array of racing lines available through the return section of the track.  There's a perfect line hiding in there somewhere!  Much fun foraging for it, and catching sight of Tristan's tailpipes. :laugh:

Great result for you Martin, you were obviously driving very well!  I'm amazed at Tris' time, over 5 seconds a lap faster than anyone else  :eek:

I'll have to look at the replay to see how he did it!
