Nice set of tracks for the fiercely close GT3 series. Are we still not using ptracker here for race results etc? Seriously, speak to Fred Joseph who runs ESRA if your unsure about it. I run it for league racing and it works fine.

Maybe I'm just having a moment of temporary blindness, but I still can't see anything on the feature list for it that would handle race results :/ NOTICE:There were a few of you last week that were running older or modified versions of PLP. The string it posts when you join the server should read this: running version 0.9,3-50-3-True-1.3-0.9-3. With this being a championship, if the string doesn't match this YOU WILL BE EXCLUDED FROM THE RESULTS. If in doubt, redownload from the link in the first post, install that and don't touch the .ini. If you need a version with another settings for another league, then I suggest you make a backup of their version and keep it somewhere safe, so you can swap the versions as necessary.

Think it needs to run with Stracker (the sister app) for your server side. Ptracker talks to it That's all well and good, but what does it actually DO? That's the problem - the feature list doesn't state anything that seems like it would be of any use.

I'm going to be driving the Z4 for this series. I've found it suits my driving style better than the others - which is a bit of a surprise, since I was expecting the GTR or MP4-12C to be more my style, usually I hate smaller FR cars. If anyone's planning on running a custom skin, can you please post a link here so we can grab it beforehand. I'll be running the stock #64 nvidia skin.

not sure what to race, it wont be the GTR tho, i can do a 1'42 in that with relative ease so i will use a slower car to try keep the grid closer.

Merc and Maclaren are close for me, not sure which to choose.
Nisssan advantage is quite obvious even for me!

The Datsun does seem a bit quick. You could always add the rule that the top 3 drivers in championship can't drive it similar to what Tony and Matt have done in some of their series. Custom skins are a PIA. I'm sick of racing grids of white cars because I haven't installed all the skins. My AC folder is big enough already and with loads of official content coming through it's going to get bigger without loads of unwanted skins clogging it up

Oh please. Permission required to use a skin? Yeah like that's going to happen.

Calm down Tony. Luka did a skin for me for another series and since it was a team skin, I asked him not to make it a public release - this seems to be a similar thing. It's more "Don't use it online against us or representing us without permission" than "don't use it at all unless you've asked us" - which is the same as all the teams here in UKGTL and UKGTR have been doing from the start.
From my calculations it will be around 18 laps, I can't say for sure though.

Hopefully someone will say as I don't want to take the blame for getting it wrong when I start the server!
