• Note that you can drive only once in each engine class! running second time in same class gives a zero points. If you are planning to race the 500kms of Nurburgring event, your car choice here limits the classes available in that event.

Race notes:
if you are familiar with player profile editing, you can set the game announce your every XX seconds how much race time is left:
Find from .PLR file Race Timer="0" line from [ Race Conditions ] block and replace the zero with amount of seconds between announcements. If you want to get note in every 5 minutes, 5 x 60 seconds = 300 --> replace the "0" with "300".

Remember to change the value back to zero after the race as otherwise GT Legends keeps telling you race time left in every race. Game itself does not make difference between the time based and lap based races, but it is happy which one (lap count or the time) comes first full filled. So it is quite funny that message tells you having 3 hours left in 5 laps quick race, if you forgot it on.

Track notes:
Since last year’s extra shadow detail caused some troubles, I removed it from this year’s version. (I am running GTL in all cores and without vertical sync in my system, so in single player practice, track runs approximately between 500 and 600 fps according to fraps. Should be enough. :))

If the races aren't been exactly door to door action, the Overall TC Championship is really close. After 6 events, top 5 drivers are with in 4 and half points.

Race was practically over in lap two when I lost the car at "The Mountain" and got a stop&go penalty for that. ???

So with 35 seconds behind all motivation gone  :P

Was difficult to decide to go on with no chances at all, but I did, as I like the track/car combo, chasing the 1:50 which I eventually cracked once.

Up to two seconds faster than last year but still a bit off the pace  :(

Lost concentration around lap 35, so I quit.

Interesting: last years winner did 71 laps.

Like Kurt I lost the car at the Mountain but at the other end of the race. I had one of those brain fade moments where I just could not think what to do to restart the engine & as I was stopped in the middle of the track & I heard another car approaching I thought the best plan was to press Esc. Not how I wanted the race to end after quite a to-and-fro battle with Daz for the 500 class lead, but there you go.

Congrats to Nocatu & Daz on the respective class wins.  :clap: :clap:
