The Porsche is allways a good choice if you are not so experienced with the SC-Mod

It's true!  In my (very limited) experience, it's the only car that stays (mostly) on the track....

It may be that tonight me and Piero race with the Porsche 910, we are not certain but we will try to attend.

[Walter Conn]

Good race, I enjoyed the track and car combination. I was glad to drive the Mirage, and it has nice driving characteristics. Once I became more comfortable with the car, I thought that I should try sliding it into the corner a little more. I made many more mistakes at that point. I had fun "trying" to drive on the limit. 

I might try a different car at each of the fun events.
Cheers,
Walt

Great racing! Real GT fun...
This damned Chap engine exploded after 4 laps!So I had a great battle wit Bob and tried to catch Mark until I made stupid mistakes...

I can help you with setups Walter, just shout

But the hassle with 60fps....
So we will do the rest of this mini series in 36fps!

[Robert Fleurke]

A scrappy start, I bumped Piero and as a result Bob bumped me, but it all went well I think. Bob passed me into Druids when I went wide, and then basically followed Mark and Bob. That Lola had more grunt but was slowish in the corners. When both touched I followed Axel who soon blew up his engine. Roberto somehow didn't get registered with the timing I think and retired, too bad. Had a lonely race after that...

Towards the end I lost focus and put my right sides on the inside grass into Dingle Bell, and I lost the car. Could continue and bring it to the finish.

Thanks for racing

- Heh, after all that work!

Scrappy race for me, lots of husseling ahead of Whitwell, got clipped a couple of times but a good result though. 


To be honest I didn't really feel much of a difference in 60 frames (for me it was around 40 frames).  Biggest problem was figuring out what mod works with what 60 frames patch.

My Chaparral was flying at Brands Hatch.  Must remind the mechanic to attach the wing the right way up.  Lost contact with the track, but actually finished 2nd behind Robert, after allowing him to pass me under a blue flag.

[Roberto Teso]

My fault.

After the Hawthorns hill, I look the mirror and then failed to brake.
I bumped the on left and jump outside of Hawthorns bend and to recover I run in reverse before doing shift-r, so on the finish line was disqualified and I stop my race.
