The problem is that last night I could not sleep so instead of counting sheep, I counted Nordschleife corners

Sorry not able to join you guys, but I tried everything that I could think of to get into the paddock. I even forged my birth certificate!!! Opted for the Skoda, just because it is the only car I have driven from this set. First attempt to join server showed most of you listed as driving Chev Camaro 1967's??? Quick as a flash I figured that was not right.... so I deleted the Camaro 67 from my Teams folder...that'l fix the prob GTL cannot load a car that I don't have Re-joined.......this time tried a mini...It seems that a lot of you retrieved your Camaros from the bin and my mini was refused entry!!! Went away and re-downloaded the Skoda and Pelle's mini set...installed again...restarted server and....."car not present on server" One last time tried to join server. "I know I'll take the Abarth, coz that is preloaded as a standard car and that cannot fail to load.................................booted, race started!!! Going to eat my way through a box of chocolates instead, it is less stressful and might actually be enjoyable!

Put in a safe banker lap in Q then went for it on Lap 2. All was going so well until Brünnchen when I lined the corner up and watched it go straight past and got a "Lap will not count" so found myself 6th on the grid for the start. Start was so so lost 1 position to ATI who seemed to have RATO fitted as an option on the Fiat so settled in behind Matt for the run down to T1. Around the long right hander and onto the straight behind the pits. Got a good run out of the corner and both Matt and myself out dragged Erling down to the next corner with me getting my nose in front and having the inside I held the position and with a bit of scraping of metalwork was though to 5th. Got a poor run through Flugplatz and Matt re took the position on the run down to Schwedenkreuz. Then it got all very untidy for a few minutes when what little skill I have seemed to desert me and a few unforced errors let Matt open a small gap. Then it all fell in a horrible heap at Wehrseifen when I spun into the inside wall. I almost hit esc right there fearful of the chasing pack and not wanting to ruin anyone's race as it was I was avoided by everyone apart from Bob. (Sorry Bob). Eventually the dust settled and I rejoined in 11th and began chasing down the quartet of Roguk, Eifelblitz, Tony and Bob. Manage somehow to take 3 of them on the run up to Kesselchen and then set my sights on Bob ahead. Closed him down by Hohe Acht and was suddenly surprised to see him flash me through at Wippermann. Why Bob? Am I that dangerous. I expected to follow you all the way to the Döttinger Höhe straght when I hoped the superior speed of the Mini would carry me past. So up to 6th but a long way back from Erling although I did keep getting the odd glimpse of him ahead. Then Erling was replaced by Ati who must have had a moment somewhere.. Shortly afterwards I was chasing Erling again as Ati recovered onyl to see Erling had taken the postion back just as I screwed up the run down from Kallenhard and went right up the bank giving the poor Mini quite a bump. Set off again after Erling and Ati But losing ground to both of them all the time. Then as I entered the Döttinger Höhe straight for the final time I found Erling had stuffed it into the hedge and I inherited a very lucky 5th which I no way deserved. TTFN John.

John: It wasn't you that I was afraid of it was the little Fiat. Our collision tweaked my front suspension and it pulled to the right. Also if I applied the brakes hard it would take off to the right or left. Just wanted to finish and get as many team points as possible. I flashed several drivers by but repassed some too when they went off. It's just racing, Good Fun!!!

one round Nuerburgring and the web are always disconnected?? Always what the problem? As you get a fail always after one lap maybe it's not Internet related. Maybe try this out https://www.simracing.org.uk/smf/index.php?topic=12160.msg218224#msg218224

Grats to Ziu on win
Grats to Podium
Gutted not to have finished race, because of making stupid error.
Kaifos i Used to get lots of discos with GTL and GPL, found doing a fresh install of them cured the problem.

Good race for me yesterday, not perfect but good. During race i had some problem with my PC and i need solve it in the next days. It has been a great advantage to racing with Mini that helped me. But i sure that if Attila or Geoffers had the possibility to drive Mini here i think few possibilities for me. I sure it was possibile go under 9:30 because in qualy i had not a great T1 i think i lost 1 second about. I builded pole after Adenauer Forst. My program was to get qualy lap on second lap because i was sure to find traffic, but when i passed Adenauer i took courage, the track was free so i started to push hard but i keeping always cleaned lines, not need here to be agressive. When i passed Bergwerk i understood that i was flying i saw the car timer so i got confidence the car setup it was very good. I known that a Kesselchen i could loose some speed but it was my choice to have tyres pressure very low specially in the front. After Kesselchen i drove cleaned without mistakes and i get pole time. About race not more to say, i started so so (i need work on this), I passed Geoffers on Nordkehere following the Kai action, so i tryed to put pressure Kay, he mistake on Brunchen so i could pass him. After Kai is disappeared on the start straight so i could control the situation hoping that Attila could keep podium. I had just a problem on the 3th lap with my PC, i have solve it. Thanks to Tony i understood about shortcourt and thanks to Attila and Bob, we rocovered the first place on the team championship.
