For the record, 2:27's with race fuel at present and screen running smooth as a baby's bottom, as they say.

Just had a training session. Not an easy track to learn, and will never be a favorite. Looks great though, not least compared to some of the 'simpler looking' ones we've been on recently. No issues with frame rate at all - rarely dips below 100 and is frequently far over. Have only tried it with Bob's patch, so can't say how bad it is without it. Did a fair few laps and not a single cut warning, so must be doing something wrong...  2:25.4 without race fuel. Cheers, Erling |

I shall be missing this race as I am away for some R&R with the grandchildren......although how much rest I get is unsure!!!
Given the various issues I have had with graphics and frame rates it might not be a bad thing that I avoid this track?
Have fun guys.

Ziu lap times practice: Race fuel 2:2x.... Qualy fuel 2:2x.... Guess the "x" Tony cannot guess becuase i sent my times to him on PM yesterday  I thought you had no interest in this race..  Well, the x is probably 0, but why the great secrecy ? You're of course faster than everyone else, as usual, and knowing your laptimes does not magically make the rest of us any faster... Cheers, Erling |

I will be editing the seat position up/down values in my GT40 to test whether such a change causes a miss-match warning. If it causes a message I will revert back to the default values.

After your answer this race does not interest me anymore.
Having completed quite a considerable number of practice laps since your comment Ziu, I find the GT40 is driving the same as it always has since the game was introduced way back in 2005. So by my reckoning, there shouldn't be any surprises as to how it handles. I'm down to mid 26's now with race fuel and is probably the most I can get out of her. Still running smoothly here. Tony - I've never adjusted my seat. Perhaps I should be! Are you doing it to alter the weight distribution or for a better view of the track/dials? |

i can perhaps make this race, long time not drive GTL.
i did already any practise laps in server and like i did read from other posts, the cutwarnings in this track are not good, i got any if i come in outside of track in 2xdifferent places where i did loose time, so learning where you get trackwarning is important i think, as with this car it is very easy to come in outside of track, as the car is not realy easy to drive (for me), the cutwarning looks like random? for me (sorry i am not sure if random is correct word, i am not good in english).
yes, FPS is heavy on this track, but if i set all cores use, then no problems for me.
is there a force pitstop for this race, or can i make race without pitstop, i do ask, because in GTL i often had problems in past with pitstops.
i realy hope i can make this race, as the old games still are very good racegames.

Well, it's flying, it's at Sebring, and I identify it as a GT40   |

Hi Berger, welcome home. Cuts are off for this race so no worries. No Pitstops required unless you need one (and you should not). |
