UKAC Season 2 - PorscheCup 2017 - Nurburgring GP - Jan 11

You're in luck Chris, Mark has you in the list of drivers, just turn up.

[Mark J]

My Profile says my AC driving name is "Phspok"
not sure that's what you mean?

Your racing history on here says different and that's what I used. Pete, are you able to edit Matts name in the driver file? Blinking Johnny come lateleys 

[Mark J]

So if any other driver who's not on my entry list was hoping to just turn up tonight I'm afraid you no longer can.
We have 22 cars  

Just out of curiosity: why is the max driver number allowed limited to 22?

Because we have dumped the booking system and have 22 drivers on the entry list. Wasn't worth the admin for 2 potential extra drivers to turn up on the night. We may be missing something as we don't have your experience for setting up races in AC. I know we could use ocrw versions of tracks for more entries but not something we suffer from

Pete, are you able to edit Matts name in the driver file?

Done but as I said I don't think it was crucial

[picnic]

Good luck all, server is up.

I don't know why that would be  but to be honest you guys have had all week to test your skin online, we even asked you too so not much we can do this late, sorry.
Pete, did you install the couple of custom skins to the server as well as the supercup pack?

[Thomas Blackett]

Thanks for the race guys, grats Chris, Nice clean racing. Running a comfortable 6th and a car from nowhere (lag) smashed me off track, no matter I only put 17 laps of fuel in it as the test server had Oh well, try and cut the school boy errors out next time.

[Simon Gymer]

Great race fellas. That was fun. Wasn't expecting these cars to be so lively, so that was a nice surprise, they were dulled enough that mortals can drive them with just a hint of devil in there, a perfect combo. They produced great racing. although quite hard to overtake, as you'd expect. Very clean start throughout the field. Shame about the few warp/lag problems that caused a few incidents later on. 5th position with no practice is beyond my wildest expectations and well done to the podium on their superior pace. Is that the best AC grid we've had, looked great with so many drivers. Well done Mark and other organisers for their efforts.

[LesN]

Great fun! First league race I've done for a long time. At some point I bumped off someone (was it frex?) Apologies... I got swiped as well, so it evens out. Thanks to all

[Mark J]

Thanks Simon glad it mostly went smoothly for round one and a fantastic full grid of 21 cars  

Only 2 glitches were the skins have suddenly gone random   yet mine was correct all week on the server. and secondly, a couple of warping cars semi ruined mine and Thomas' race   (were the warpers on wi-Fi?)

Race start was very clean and tidy, well done all  

I was locked in a tight pack with Simon and Michael ahead until lap 7 when Denis' warping car appeared from nowhere and smashed me off track  :'( weird as he had been a few cars ahead   I lost about 5-10 secs and fell behind Bob but luckily with a gap back to others.  I was able to chase Bob hard for a few laps and got past with a nifty move set up at the chicane  
Then I had to chase after Micheal and Simon battling up ahead. I closed the gap then Michael span off after Simon passed him
Now I was 7th ! But Simon still had the edge to stay ahead. Then unlucky for nfsw with 1 lap to go he went off and I finished a hard earned 6th  

Congrats to Chris on the win and podium guys, great pace  

Any grievances, watch the replay first then report to me or Pete if it warrants attention.

Thanks for racing all, great first round

i know

ive ben really busy, my fault.

its ok, ill test it out again for the next race.

[nfsw55]

Ahhh, a race to forget for me.

Started P3 and was able to overtake Maikel at the Start (looked like his wheel steered to the left right after the lights went out) and also got passed Chris in Turn1. Hold on for P1 the first two laps I think, but as expected Maikel and Chris were much faster so I let them through.

So back at P3 I had a comfortable run but suddenly lost the car and spun at the grass, P6 after that and very angry about myself
Was able to get back to P5 and to the rear of fmg (sorry for the contact in turn 1), but could't go past him. Last lap I lost the car again and crashed into the barrier, finished P7 in the end

Sorry Chris I can see what the error is, we had Hesketh_24 in the entry file and it should have been 24_Hesketh. Will be sorted for next week.
