Well I'd be in. And I'm sure Tinman would as well as we have both been involved virtually from Day 1.

So we'd better get a move on. Me and the Tinman aren't getting any younger. Mrs Oilseal is predicting the day when I can't get in and out of the racing seat. Have to admit its not getting easier.

I thought when I retired I would have loads of time for these sims. But the longer I'm retired the thought keeps running thro my head" How did I find time to go to work"

The downside of the release is that I'll be on holiday when it comes out....Bummer

Looking forward to online racing again as nothing has tickled my fancy in the last 2-3 years

Are there to be Project Cars races on here and will we have a dedicated forum......or are we ignoring it altogether.   LOL

Not been on here for ages...or Project Cars for that matter.

Does anyone know if the car setups will allow single track, multiple single vehicle setup ala GPL.

It seems to be getting awful close to launch and all I can do is save a setup to a car or track and not multiples. Ie Setup vers 1,2,3 etc

Had a great time. Liked the 458

Managed a 2:15 in the race (not bad considering I was doing 2:46 on Friday morning)

Everything ran smoothly and no hiccups from the hardware or software.

Probably first online race for 2 years. Need to get back in the groove.

I'm up for Wednesdays though I'm on holiday for the next 2 weeks.

Maybe I can persuade Tinman to sit in.


See you in a fortnight

What's a decent time round here in the F40?

Good evening guys

I'm told by my brother, Tinman, that there might be a chance of some AC racing here.

So, I'm coming out of retirement........now that I've retired. Yes I know thats complicated

So can someone tell me what server, what races etc.

Regards

PS. Nice to see some names I recognize after all this time.  Now to persuade Tinman to come back and maybe Team Oldie Racing can get back to winning

SMS announces licensing agreement with Ford. Some great cars in there.

Better and better.

Spanner you don't sound like you are enjoying driving.

Stop over analysing. My prescription would be 3 or 4 pints of Theakston Old Peculier as a starter.

This will take the edginess from your driving and slow your reactions. The knock on effect of this will be to wipe out understeer at a stroke.

The next thing you will notice is that your self esteem problem will disappear and in its place you will become overbearing and boorish (imagine a BMW driver).

The final stage, after a few more tinctures, will be complete relaxation followed by a deep comatose sleep and the last thing you will worry about will be your f*****g awful driving

LOL

It's nice to be of help sometimes

Posting your probs on the WMD forums will glean you much knowledge and save you time.

The devs seem to spend a lot of time on the forums so if you have a unique prob they'll get back to you.

Tip: Add all your equipment specs to your signature. It helps with sorting out any issues.

Try the F68 at Watkins Glen for that GPL feeling LOL

I can see your problem. As the devs keep telling everyone nothing is optimised yet so you will get the big variations.

I just took a leap and upgraded what I could afford. I've got an AMD Phenom X6 1050 and HD6870 card alongside Win 7.

Hi spanner
Its worth looking at. I had to upgrade my computer and graphics card though(I was getting ready to upgrade so no real problem)

Have enjoyed the weekly builds and have been really interested in the development side. Remember that this is still pre alpha so you get plenty of differing views from the members.

Fortunately I've not had any real problems with the game apart from adding some tweaks to my G25 as the FFB seems to be updated each build.

Up to now have had more value for my money since GPL.

Around the forums it's been quite amusing to follow the other game fan boys.

It is possible to have more than one great game

Can't agree Shark. Think the driving is great with no lag and don't understand "slow graphic" And definitely not as twitchy and slidey as iRacing

Have you signed up and do you pass these comments on to the developers to make things better?

And still 12 months development to come

15  SimRacing In General / Other racing sims / Re: C.A.R.S. Goes Live on: March 08, 2012, 11:28:51 AM +0000
See Donington, Road America and Le Mans to be added.

And still to come laser scanned Oulton, Brands, Cadwell and Snetterton.

I'm liking this more and more.
