Modern tyre fix must be applied to the relevant cars. Full details hereCar restrictions: Two drives maximum per make *. Check your status here. *Drivers may elect to drop one make entirely and add two bonus drives with one other make. Time of Day Setting: 14:00 Start: STANDING Tyre wear: Normal Fuel consumption: Normal Pit stops: Not required Server: simracing.org.uk Monday Password: see aboveNotes: (1) It's best if all drivers can make sure they are connected before the Qualifying session as drivers on track during qualifying will not see cars that join after they are on track until they go back to the garage. (2) Please make sure you are fully aware of the SimRacing.org.uk Rules. (3) The AI control should be turned off so that you have control of the car at all times, including pitting. Your player file should therefore read Autopit="0" Force Autopit Off="1" // Forces autopit always off No AI Control="1" // AI never has control over car If you still finding pitting problematic, experience tells us that its less to do with positioning and more to do with approach speed. A slow approach to pit crew chief has proved most reliable. Special Notes: None

Goldtop and Erling have already secured the top two spots in this Championship but the battle for the remaining third place looks too close to call

geeez! I had not realised that I was that high in the rankings!!!!! or that it was THAT close Tony. I knew that I had missed a couple of rounds and my early attempts were pretty pathetic so i had not bothered to even look at the points table. I don't suppose there is any point in asking what would be a decent lap time in these cars??? given that the stakes are so high lol. It all might be an anticlimax for me anyway as there is an outside chance of real life getting in the way on Monday, but here's hoping that I can join in the fun.

Wow Tony !! that's a good 5 secs a lap faster than I could manage when I did a few laps this morning with soft tyres and 5 litres of fuel. I know the track well, as it is one of the original GPL circuits, but getting these GT cars to handle as I would like is proving tricky.

All this sandbagging I'm at 1:18s in the Lola. Having to get used to stick shifting with my cwappy DFGT instead of the paddles which are playing up badly now. Quite enjoying it and thinking of getting a proper h shifter with some new pedals eventually, but in the meantime there's a lot of room for error in race mode.

For years I used the paddles on my G25 and then about 12 months ago I thought to myself, I have this shifter ( which I paid good money for!) why not use it?? OK, so I wimped out of the "H" shifter option and use it as a sequential shift most of the time, but it does feel a little more real having to at least move a gearstick to make a gear change. I have opted for the Matra Simca howling banshee for this race and am around 1:20 at the moment, but far from happy with the setup or is it my driving?

I had a quick run round in the matra, the big ferri and the Alfa, the Alfa is an easier drive and I'm doing 19's, though that will come down a bit.

Just to summarise drivers remaining car availability
Goldtop - Must take Lola Erling - Must take Porsche WT - Must take Lola Phspok - Any car but Lola SpecialKS - Must take Porsche Evil Clive & Postal - Have unused car group available so could elect to drop unused group to reinstate a used group. But best to let me know before tonight's race.
