RRE Season 3 (2016) Race Room Historics Series - Norisring - Jan 21

[Geoffers]

Don't think I will be racing RRE again, every time I seem to have other cars disappearing & reappearing & I think this time I was lagging badly again as I seemed to be changing positions on the timing without actually passing anyone. Either my system or my connection is not up to running this & I am spoiling other peoples races. Have fun all, maybe see you sometime in the future.

I'm too slow for this caper so I quit out before the lappers caught up to me. Good turnout tho.

hi geoffers,

yes sadly your car did jump forward and backward like crazy and do blink blink blink very much too, i had NO idea where you was exactly on track, in start/T1 this was already difficulty and 1 or 2 laps later i did hit you and i was much behind, no idea why sometimes people in this racegame do have problems with connection, think the online system in this racegame is not 100% perfect, sadly.
after this i was much behind and demotivated, later i did hit a other car in T1 brake, as i did not calculate his brake point correct, as my car is much more late brake car, sorry for this (think p. alnutt).

race for victiory it did looks very close what i did see in timegaps, tonight i was not able to fight for good result, next race should be better (hope for DTM92, as i was thinking till short before the race, this race is with dtm92)

What a race that was. sorry for the slight tap on the last corner of the last lap jpassmore. I just could not find a way to pass you, great driving. i think the gap was less than 1 second the entire race, mostly below .5 secs

does drafting not work in this game?

thanks for the racing all

LOL - at least you have the lap race record 

later i did hit a other car in T1 brake, as i did not calculate his brake point correct, as my car is much more late brake car, sorry for this (think p. alnutt).

I was braking as late as I could  Still I'll take Volvo class win as a result 

Pretty obvious by the results the Nissan was the car to be in.

[Chunky]

Wow! what a race! these skylines are difficult to get off the line! you really have to slip the clutch which I managed to do better than Greg to get to the first corner in front.
There on in Greg was about .5 of second behind me all race, good racing buddy! but managed to keep him behind me for the win! great battling with you

lappers were great getting out of the way with Greg right on my tail. whew so glad this race went well

Hey Gents

Good Race, I made a few mistakes, The leaders where 5 second ahead after the first 10 minutes, then I made a few mistakes, its hard to catch or overtake if the pace is the same.. I wanted the use the E30 BMW but then I saw the pace of the Nissan, so I changed to it and did minor setup changes 5 minutes before the race started, I think I could have been a little more consistent..

Well done John you raced well and MC

Geoffers used to have occasional conn trouble in P&G with our server, for some it's solid, for others not always so.
Was a cracking race, big turnout   it makes it really interesting to always
have another car in sight, and at this short track with 15 people it was great.
Not sure about drafting, I assumed it modeled it perhaps not.

Next event is M1 Procars at Hockenheim, last time we ran here it was DTM92, that's why I ran the Touring classics this time.

I don`t have a clutch , full revs and slam it in gear

[Geoffers]

Don't honestly think my connection is the problem, it runs GTL & P&G fine & although it is normal broadband (not superfast) I can stream TV & video no problem. Think it is probably my system, the graphics card is well below the minimum spec for RRE. Won't be updating it for a while so I'll just stick to GTL & P&G for now.

[Chunky]

I think drafting is in but maybe it doesn't work as well on these old cars

[phspok]

DOn't wish to nag, but could Larry please register on the forums? then you will get points in the championship

Yeh that was some time ago when I was on AOL, speed of that was quite slow, use BT now & it is much more stable & a lot faster.

[phspok]

Ok. I am running on an ancient core2duo 2.6G, the GPU is a decent Nvidia970 (I thinK) but
maybe because of the amount of scenery, whereas I can normally run smooth on low res on this machine tonight
it was getting quite choppy over the start line, maybe this track is a higher than normal demand?

Ah I think I understand Reinharts dilema... I had left a photo of DTM92 cars on the event page
