An impromptu race at short notice at a track which most people should be familiar with. I have selected the Monza from the track pack as I have not tested the 1988 version and many people will already have it with luck. Gulf is likely quickest, but the MKII will be fast on the straights. I will do some testing tonight for the race lenght. 20 laps is just a place holder. And thanks to Tony for sorting my mess of the post

Click on the red download this link in the race announcement. Then look at the bottom of the page where you will see a big picture. EDIT: I'm just testing the content now. Will report back ASAP

I had been testing with 1.2, but as the link has 1.2.0.1 we will use that. It will show as UKGTR_Monza 2004 It looks the same but probably has harsher cut tracks.

Thanks for your answers - it lasted a long time til I understood. UKGTRMonza2004 is a modified and additional version of the original GTR2 track Monza2004 (which wasn't included in my personal P&G install) Works now. Sorry for inconveniences caused. See you on Thursday.

No! But I'll send you what I do have and the TT lap to go with it.

If we are going to have a quiet spell between seasons could I suggest that a Mini PnG School Series be tried, whereby the leader of the pack is obliged to post a "Good" TT lap at least by the Sunday before the next race, to help everyone to improve? Penalty for not providing the lap, say 20pts?
Within SBRC we swapped a lot of laps and setups for each race and having John's lap to chase was a great benefit to the rest of us. Also, he often found that he went still quicker with Stig's setup than his own.
Unlike GPL where, although the cars are more difficult to keep on the track, there is a wealth of tools to help the learner, PnG has nothing and trying to improve is hard going.
Many give up because they get fed up with arriving at an event and learning for the first time that they are five seconds off what they thought was a good time!

Did a few laps and 20 is about right at my pace for ~40 mins so I will leave it at that. Monza is not my fave track, but I needed to put on a race at very short notice with no testing time at all so this is an "easy" and well known track with "easyish" cars. The GT40s are a bit clumsy through the chicanes, but are quite fun in the lesmos or at least they are the way I drive them
