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: Free choice of car.

I think this is the first 1-lane racetrack I've seen...  Grin

Did some brief track familiarisation yesterday and went online to make sure I was using the right track version.  Had some rather bad stutter online, but not offline.  Anyone else experience this ?

Not tried it myself but this is an old track that we have used many, many times in the past, and never had a problem.

Strange; I must test some more.

Btw, noticed when I downloaded the track, that Loch Rannoch is also available for GTL.  Used to be a favorite of mine, in TOCA Race Driver 2, before I went to GTL and never looked back :-)   Have you considered using it in one of our series Tony ? (Have no idea if the GTL version is any good)

Erling

Yes, Loch Rannoch has been used quite a few times in GTL. We use the circuit that has the jump in it.

Ah yes, remember the jump from TOCA  Smiley   Hope you'll use it again in the future.

Hi Erling, i had similar problems at the Imsa race last week. Do you have Avast 2015 installed? If yes, try to shut it off during racing..
I will download the track tomorrow and give it a spin too. See whats what.

Quote
Had installed new graphic drivers and even though it looked OK offline i experienced stuttering the first 4 laps or so. And i wanted it sorted before joining you guys in an online race. It appears now the installation of the new version of Avast 2015 is hogging my system resources even though it is set to "silent/game mode" and was the culprit.

Hi Postal.  Thanks for the suggestion, but no, I'm on Norton AV, which normally isn't a problem - in that regards at least. It automatically enters 'discrete mode' when it detects a program running in fullscreen, but guess I must experiment some more.  Strange that it so far only happened online.

Erling

Indeed. i had stutter problems last race at Road Atlanta, but there where people having other issues too. I raced P&G at Donington last week without problems and also was online practicing this weeks combo at Charade. Also no problems (well, not with the pc anyway..).
Checked if your connection is set to ISDN?

Well, the plot thickens  Huh

Went straight online when I came home, and stutter wasn't nearly as bad as yesterday - only noteworthy in the 2nd to last corner.

Connection was set to Cable/DSL. Tried ISDN, but if anything it made it slightly worse.  Then checked offline. Still a little better, but some slight stutter in the same corner.

Next I deactivated my anti virus (with GTL still running). Then went online, and now the bad stutter of yesterday was back!  So not the AV that's the culprit.

Wondered if testing offline before going online could cause it - would be consistent with yesterday too.  Restarted GTL, went online and had the moderate stutter.  Restarted again, went offline testing and then online, but still had only the moderate stutter. Bit of a mystery really..  blink

Perhaps it might be worth a fiddle with the graphic settings. To start with I would recommend taking the shadows setting down one click.

Lime Rock installed and used offline a number of times, will try uninstalling and re-installing later.
