BTW I have registered but it still says I dont have a licence to drive this series  No problem Bernie, just show in chat and we will give you the PW! PS I can't find a 69 car in this 69X choice, only "Antique Automobiles"  Best of them is 3,5 sec slower than a heavy driver... |

Yes the T86B is slower than the Lotus 49 (between 1 and 2 sec for me) but is 10 times easier to drive ! You should try it ! |

got the same impression. Lotus49 seems to discover each turn every lap as unknown land.... more helpless only the track programming, some appex cant be driven as an steady circle but more then a hard edge remote controll the car in there. Thats , for me , makes it inpossible to work out any usefull setup  |

Can't make this one, as Gareth seems to be a no-show So happy F2-ing & 69-ing on this fine (HA!) Valentine's evening. Hope it's drier/calmer than it is here! Next time fellas. Cheers, Dave. |

Sorry for the bump, Axel.
I'm pretty much done with the open wheel cars.

Not my night at all . first the track wouldn't load for the F2 race due to me having swapped from OGL2 to OGL to try and cure some small grapfix problem , by the time I had finished mucking around unloading - re loading tracks etc was to late to join , the race was nearly over  checked my 69X was ok off line and felt confident enough to go make a cuppa , when I came back , tried to join the race but the soddin "join " button was greyed out , GEM was telling me I dont have the 69X mod installed . No idea what the problem is apart from GPL and me not being 100% compatible though not surprised as I never got the 69's running properly on my previous attempts. |

F2: after messing up the start, kept my nose clean and got back to P2, but Martin was too fast, and more important very consistent! Well deserved Martin, flawless race! 69X: suffered most from startcrash, was last, but gradually worked my way up the order, again mostly others went off or spun. But at a certain point steered in too late and hit the bridge at the Esses... |

I had loads of fun! In the F2 race I couldn't find a good tow so qualified well down the order in the BT14, but I could profit from mistakes by others and ended up in P5 . Quite happy with that although who knows what kind of result I could have achieved had I qualified better. In the 69 race I had a good quali lap, although again no tow so started well down the order again. Had a blistering start overtaking two or three Lotussus off the line and managed to keep my nose clean during the start melee, and found myself in P2! Andreas went flying past some laps later but I managed to hold on and salvage P3 in his slipstream, untill that became P2 when Evil went off at the Esses! Tried to pressurize Andreas a bit untill I spun on the last lap. Still, P2 in the BT20, well pleased . I'd like to say that, even though I won't use it, for me the 4WD cars are back in, because otherwise there won't be enough winged cars to race against as the heavies are rather underrepresented . |

I can host and we can talk in igor chat etc. Let me know if this could be point of interest for you.. Thanks Nicky thats kind of you to offer , I think the problem is I only have 69 1.3 mod installed . I have just now downloaded the 69 extra mod from speedgeezers? It looks a really compicated business to install properly so going to try the install tomorrow (sunday ) as I am naggered right now . Hopefully it will all go well for me . Will let you know if we has any problems and hopefully we can sort them in iGOR together . Again many thanks my friend |

...was 3 rd at the begin of the 2nd lap ...when I was rear ended by Dean at the end of the long straight ... Sorry for that. I was getting pressured from behind myself, locked up, and last ditch avoidance move didn't work. I just watched replay, and saw how much you suffered for the ridiculous GPL physics.  |
