The next track looks very different.

Yes, I try to mix it up as much as possible when selecting tracks for the season. You wait until you see my crazy idea for Season 45 Smiley

Welcome, Danny and congratulations on a podium finish. Believe me, at 29, you're still a kid in GPL terms. Great to see a new driver on the grid.

SEASON 44  -  1967 F2    AMATEURS         Round 7  -  Snetterton

The first circuit made use of the perimeter roads and one of the runways to create a fast 2.71 mile circuit. A signature feature was the almost mile-long Norwich Straight, which ran parallel to the A11 road and culminated in a tight hairpin bend. The course outline was marked by sand-filled oil drums, topped rather eccentrically by Christmas trees. The early meetings featured rather primitive facilities and entry to the circuit infield could only be achieved during breaks in track running, due to there being no bridges or underpasses.By 1965, the first changes were made to the circuit. Speeds out of the final Paddock Corner were becoming a concern and a chicane was inserted, named after Jim Russell, who had established the world's first racing driver school at the circuit in the late 1950s. Unfortunately, the new corner was far too tight and motorcycle racers in particular found it almost impossible to negotiate, so it was eased in 1967. The revised corner was much quicker; a flat-out-if-you-dare kind of affair, which saw you hit the pit lane wall if you got it wrong – and many did...Elsewhere on the circuit, a former gunnery mound alongside the pit straight was excavated and used to form the approach banks of a new vehicle bridge across the track at the Esses, and there was a general improvement over the years in facilities.Snetterton remained a temple to high speed during the 1960s and early 70s and despite this, remained relatively safe for the times. One of the major factors in this was the lack of much to hit – grassy fields surrounded much of the circuit, while other areas featured escape roads formed by the old runways.

I'm sorry to have missed this. I reckon that I could have sneaked in that gap and taken 2nd from Yannick.  Roll Eyes

NP for GPL as it computes minimum a 1/10000 sec difference

In theory, the entire grid could have squeezed Yannick into last place. I must build a wide track so that we can test this theory.

Pee & others - you aren't trying to connect with advanced trainer cars are you?

Nope - just checked. NOT a trainer car

Same here. I keep getting "Timed out" messages. I've checked that I have 60fps, tried direct connection but no success.

Me too. Perhaps Cookie has set the wrong maximum number of drivers or something. Never mind. Early night for me. See you next time

Thanks for testing. Ironically, I now can't connect to the server for THIS race in the CANAMS Sad

I can connect to other servers on IGOR, but not this one. Not even via direct ip

Thanks, Dave. I know that Will and I can connect via Igor as well as directly but we're this side of the router.

I've had to reset my router. Could someone please see if you can connect to UKGPL07 today and let me know any issues. I'm not sure that I've put port forwarding back to where it was. Thanks.

Thanks also for choosing Boreham for this special event. I'm honoured.

I'm not quite sure how I came 2nd at Boreham. Thanks v much.

Yes, please. Count me in. Looks like I'm free on Tuesday for this race.

Great racing tonight. Sorry to Phil in Race 2 as I sped into the corner way too quickly after a BIG tow down the straight. Glad you won Race 3. Tris ----  you took the wrong Lotus in the last race. Never mind - it's all for fun. The Lotus with the Climax engine may have had more fuel in it as well  Wink

Grats to all finishers in this fun series. Thanks for organising.
