UKPnG Season 7 British Touring Car - Oulton Park (International) - Jun 28

[Wiltshire Tony]

Sorry if my actions caused an even smaller grid 
Completely out of character and possibly due to the stress at not being able to get into the race I twice, completely by accident, hit the exit key in the server window hence killing the sim. Couldn't believe I had done it the first time, but then to do it again was unforgiveable.

Grats to the podium. Sorry that I could not attend


I hope that I'm on my way to solve my problems.

Drive C could not be detected when booting. As it looked empty   I decided - maybe a bit hasty -
to make a new install of XP  .
Machine running again but it'll take time to install/update all missing drivers/software and to regain my
online access.
Data seem to be secure on another partition.
But because I'm not sure whether my HD is also affected, I will make a complete backup first,
which will take some time too (250GB via USB2).

Hope  to see you again during next week.

Hope to see you back soon mate.

No problem Tony, just a shame it was all to no avail.

I know the pressures of launching servers from GPL days and I never did any good in the race if I had to sort the server out so many thanks for all your efforts.

Sorry for my departure as well. I needed a restart as I always seem to get a loss in frame rate in PnG that usually can be fixed with a simple restart. When I was doing that I got an unexpected phone call from a friend that had some rather bad news and after that I frankly just wasn't up for any racing.. I truly love Oulton Park and rain is right into my wheelhouse but sometimes real life throws a curve. I'll be there for the next rain race for sure.

After a couple of no-shows, I finally made it to the Oulton race. I knew Oulton a little, but when I joined online, I had an older version of the track installed! After a quick DL and install, I soon found that the “new” track was very different in some places, especially the chicanes. So I spend most Qualification time to re-learn the track. I used the basic set-up for the Lotus Cortina, with the green tires (don’t know if rain tires would be better in “light rain”).
 
From the start I knew it would be a tail-out race and yes I made a few places and lost a few, due to my inability to catch every rear-end twist. With a bigger grid and some more practice I think this race would have been awesome! Now, I’m looking forward to the next in this championship.

 
 
Grats to podium and all finishers!

Rain tyres shouldn't be used in P&G. Nor Inters. Only use the tyre options that begin with a manufacturers name e.g. Dunlop, Firestone etc.

The non use tyres are hard written into GTR2 and the P&G modders could not work around it.
