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.

Well I have no idea what happened there..... I completed all 18 laps, there was no indication that I'd disconnected, although I did wonder at around half way why no-one had lapped me yet.. the lap countdown etc continued, and the leaderboard was showing.  Go figure as they say, especially as my internet and WiFi has successfully run well over 250 live two hour internet radio shows over the last two years with only one minor dropout.  It was so hot too; if I'd known what happened I'd have stopped well before the end! ::)

Checked my replay Huggy.  Your car suddenly vanishes without warning early in the race; at 371 seconds, so seems you somehow lost connection.

I think that everyone has had that glitch at some time or another. Good thing is it doesn't happen often. Hope your able to join more of our races. If you need help with a setup please ask here as we are a friendly bunch (mainly) and quite often setups can be shared if asked for.
