Password: see above

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) Driver lists can be found on the championship standings page

Special Notes: The grid procedure for Race 07 events is slightly different from GTL/GTR2. Upon joining the grid, you won't be able to rev your engine until all drivers are present on the grid. Do not attempt to esc back to garage or you will be DQ'd.

As an emergency measure i'll change it to run the full Oulton park track. Ran it in a few cars and wanted to run it with something else.

been a few steam client and race/evo updates lately JPS, so expect thats the big problem. Go into your steam account and check the tabs for one that does the client updates etc first then make sure you have latest race/evo patches.

well that was a waste of half hour of my life.

Dont know what happened at the start. ??? Sat waiting on the grid then the cars automatically moved forward under ai control, next i feel a thump and pitch straight into the armco without any steering input from me ! Suspension damage before ive gone 5metres  :laugh:  Saw Jamera also get instant DNF

These dont do it for me, especially with a crappy (as predicted) turnout  >:(  Also think a 25min race is more than adequate in these things unless you can somehow conjure up a decent grid...6 isnt.  40mins with 2 guys out of the race within the s/f straight   ::)

Dunno what happened there, tried to join the grid with 30 secs to go and the button was greyed out, didn't matter how many times I tried to click it just wasn't having it

Results and Replay posted
Weird start as MJ said. I think neither Picnic or myself realised it would do the "player has control" type start
Had some fun chasing then taking it in turns to fall off with JPV
Was quite fun cars to drive I thought. Oh and I didnt read the pitstop bit.

Post by: Truetom on July 13, 2011, 09:53:43 PM +0100
Well, I had a good time. ;) Too bad about the low and then lower grid. :P Pitstop here is not necessary unless you do 2x fuel usage and 2x tyre wear.

Had some good chasing with [SJ]MBMAC until he smacked into something and quit. ;)

Grids will stay low if new comers can't sign in because of unexplained password issues.
