As there has been strong support to keep the Historics (1966 Mod) on the calendar we will be running a double header of two Intermediate Short races at Imola. For race 1 you can pick any car from the 2 Litre range & then upgrade to a 3 Litre beast for the second race. Other than engine size there is a free choice of chassis. (2L cars range from 2.0 – 2.7 litre). It’s a fun race, unlimited Shift R but you are asked to observe the normal GPL rule of taking a Stop & Go after every reset. Please note the slightly earlier start time of 8.45. Race List = IGOR Server = UKGPL3 - Note change of server Race date = Tuesday 08-01-2013 Time = 20:45 UK time Track = Imola Race length = Intermediate Short Variant = 1966 – 2L & 3L Damage Model = Intermediate Qualifying time = max. 15 minutes

Perhaps Phillipe is trying to dispose of some old French Francs?

That is a shame. What error Nigel?
I have had to re-install tracks before but the biggest culprit is the Season file...

I had no idea 66s were so unpleasant to drive. I at least had a driveable setup for the 2.0l race, just v v slow, but the 3l race the car was totally uncontrollable. Billy, I think it was you that came round the hairpin to find me beached there - just couldn't get the ******** to move. Sorry about that.
Any thoughts of racing 66s this season now firmly quashed until I can understand them. Does anyone have some decent setups I could try? The opnes I downloaded from ATD just didn't work...
Cheers
Arf

That was kind of fun. Managed to get my installation sorted just before race 2 and joined on the grid. Default setup with gearing lowered 2 clicks, felt fine from mid to end of race but the first few laps were hairy Apologies to Dave Curtis I think it was, as it appears I was blocking, but it was just hard to keep on the chosen path As an aside, can I remind everyone to disable AV programs when installing ANYTHING. Despite never having any problems in the past it seems that AVG and the Imola installer just don't get on. Looking forward to S24 and the prophecied 'Coming of the Moose'.

Just you mate Sorry to Colin, Bernie and Bill for Race 1. Just couldn't hold a tight enough line at Tosa and touched Colin (who didn't leave a ton of room ). That put me in Bill's path and we exploded. One more spin and a lost wheel and I retired. I did chase Bill for a few laps but put in my PB and saw his lead increase by 50 yards Race 2 was MUCH better and Arf^3 definitely needed lower gearing.... he was like a milk float off the line. Managed to hold Clive in view for a few laps and then even caught him up a bit at the end. Had fun holding off Cookie for a whole corner and that was that. Not a bad outing for the 'Herd'. Check out our web presence here and you'll understand that with machinery like that the other teams have no chance... Replay is here
