Notes:
(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: Weaker spec PC's may suffer at this event. Suggest you turn down graphic settings (try setting shadows to lowest setting) and test before race night.

Can drivers test this track on their systems please? I'm concerned that it may put too heavy a load on ahem lower spec/older PC's.

No probs for me Tony.  I have 2009 Base PC with AMD Phenom II X4 965 Processor running at 3.4 gHz and Nvidia GTX 665Ti  Graphics Card.  I'm running at 1860 x 1280 with most of the GTL Graphic settings at high, distance is Far and shadows medium -  so I get good resolution with 24in wide screen monitor,

With 911 S the frame rate is between 160 and 120 frames/sec, spending most of the lap between 150 and 135.  Hope this helps.  Grin rockon

If you could try again with the time at 18:00hrs it would be most appreciated.  Kiss

Done Tony.  On grid at back with 10 cars in front of me 85 frames/sec, monetary at lights green dips to 70 but as soon as we started moving up to mid-80s with most of track in the 100 to 85 bracket and  peak of 115. 

So it looks like should be OK with Intel dual core processor and a modern graphics card.  Perhaps someone  with that kind of spec could see what  they get.  Grin

Just through with my testing Tony.

PC originally built in 2010, but videocard upgraded recently. Intel Core i7 930, running at 3.25 GHz, video card Radeon R9 280X.

Game settings: Resolution 2560 x 1440, shadows low, no trackside characters, all other settings maxed out. Anti-Aliasing Level 3 (GTL), Anisotropic filtering 16x (3D settings outside GTL).  Video card settings generally set for quality rather than outright performance.

Practiced alone to learn track (steep learning curve!).  Start time 18:00.  Got 170 - 200 fps.  After I had practiced a while, the artificial light of the track suddenly came on. Framerate took a hit, dropping to 150 - 170 fps.

Did two AI-races.  With start at 18:00, I got 80 - 120 fps. Start at 19:00, with artificial light on, it dropped to 30 fps at the start, was typically 50 - 70 fps on the first lap, but climbed above 100 fps as the field spread out.

Don't know if the light will come on during the race, but it's definitely a factor to be taken into account.  If it does, people should test with start time 19:00 instead of 18:00, as my results suggest a massive hit on the framerate with cars on the track (all had their lights on too).

AI is a bunch of wusses on this track btw - I beat both Lola T70s and 917s with a friggin' Escort..  Grin (and yep, they're ARE set to the toughest level)

Cheers,
Erling

Hi installed new graphic card 6850, tried latest drivers 14.4 but not working for GPL in opengl, so installed driver 12.3 works fine
with GPL and GTL   BUT Singapore
                         with Singapore track GTL at 18.00 10 ai settings high at start 57fps then 60/61fps
                                                                                           med at start 52fps then 58/59fps
                                                                19.00 10 ai settings high at start 49fps then 57/58fps
                                                                                            med at start 41fps then 54/55fps
strange medium settings slower, also have no catalyst control center to make adjustments just have a prog called AMD gaming evolved is this normal, any help or advice appreciated.

You should have Catalyst Control centre installed. Go to the AMD site and you can download it on it's own (or you used to be able to). AMD Gaming Evolved is carp and should be removed. You won't find it in Control Centre under the name AMD Gaming Evolved. It hides under another name. But sort your program list by date and it will be apparent which name it hides under. If you google "AMD google evolved" you will get a flavour of it's popularity. You do get a choice to not install it with your card driver but it's not made very clear.
Hope this helps

EDIT: In the Windows control panel program list, it goes under the name "Raptr".

EDIT: Tried to find a download for just the CCC but to no avail. It is included in your driver download package however. Maybe go to the AMD site and get the driver download package for your system/card and re-install, paying carefull attention to all messages received regarding choices about what is installed.

It probably means throwing away the Championship, but I'll unfortunately have to miss this.

Am going on an extended weekend Porsche drive to Schwarzwald and Alsace, so won't be back until Tuesday.  Almost cancelled my participation in the trip - that's how bad I wanted to win this..   (Finally got my priorities straight though)  Cool

Cheers,
Erling
