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: None

We are enjoying the fresh sea air for a couple of weeks (life's good to us). Hope to see you all again soon.

Enjoy the racing. Cheers Dan

Still being a bit beaten up by covid guys, so not sure there is any way I can fight with this beast of a car tonight.

I'm giving it a miss as well, sorry guys.  So wanted to like this car, but to be honest I hate it.  An hour's worth of practice just now unsurprisingly reveals I should have started that days ago.

Congrats Matt and Tony.

Sorry I did not stay to at least maintain a full podium, but the gremlins that affect my FF decided to make a return appearance  :-\. I thought that I had sorted those issues as I have not had any probs for months. But as soon as the flag dropped, you both witnessed the effect. The total lack of any "load" on the steering totally transforms the experience.
The car that I had during qualifying was now simply undriveable and after multiple excursions, and sustaining damage to something important, I decided to call "enough".
I felt that I finally had a handle on these beasts and was disappointed to have to abort.
