UKGPL Season 31 - Fun - F2 - Goodwood - Jan 22

[Alessandro Isacchini]

Just wondering...
Have we all applied the "fix" correctly? I just dropped the new goodwood.trk file into my existing goodwood track folder. It occurs to me that if we have not implemented the new .trk file properly then we are in effect running the OLD Goodwood circuit with all of its faults??

Simply I moved the fix-files into the existing folder

No issues here (aside from Martin doing a "now you see me, now you don't" bit), with fix applied.

But UKGPL race report has me driving a Ferrari when I was in Matra MS7  (no big deal, but worth noting).

Great first lap (12th to 5th), not so great after that (back to 12th, slow climb back).

Fun track, even if I do have a lot of room for improvement here.

I enjoyed my race, but did suffer a screen-freeze during quali. Pity the new fix seems to not have fixed the issues with Goodwood as it's a great track to race on. Oddly enough I was suffering with cramp in one of my fingers during the race which I'd like to blame on my two spins  . But I suspect it was more a lack of concentration. One spin too many and decided to call it a day.

I did note a lot of cars in my mirrors flew off the circuit, seemingly taking evasive action. Was I braking too early for the corners? Apologies if that was the case. Congrats to all finishers.

The server issues seem to have detracted from a brilliant drive by Gareth.

Thanks for noticing Billy!
Tho I cant take all the credit, the server issues dealt with some of my competitors, bad luck guys! and Roberts mechanic didn't put enough fuel in, commiserations Rob.
First race win since my daughter was born, she is 3 today, also I remember my last race win, Blue mountain (November 2013), that track got put on the black list as well, LOL.
Thanks AG for hosting at short notice.
Thanks all, looking forward to the season ahead.

Grats Gareth, great pace mate, noticed you've improved a lot since your comeback!

Haven't been racing online a lot lately, and didn't prep like I normally do. My last lap in quali was good and almost snatched Pole. Had 2 unforced errors going off, starting on Lap 1, but since many suffered from freezes/disco's I was back challenging for the lead soon, also due to others going off. Car was kind of hard to handle like push-oversteer, but might have to do with the track characateristic and my driving as well. Since I didn't take enough fuel with me, and only found out late race, had to let go Gareth in the penultimate lap (who had slightly more pace anyway) and had to  settle for second coasting to he checkered. Doni ran well in the F166 as well, and wasn't that easy to pass despite his lack of power/straight line speed.

Like Dean says, some car choices are not reflected in the results. I drove the T84...

Nice to  see a solid grid, also with some newer names! Shame the fix didn't help, but maybe it's also the 60fps patch!?

PS: thanks to Andreas for hosting helping out when Axel had probs!

NEWS UPDATE!

iGOR is back!  But like in the old days of WinVROC, you need to change the IP to which iGOR points for a race list. (servers and clients).

Browse to \\Program Files\GPLSecrets\iGOR and edit the iGOR.ini file.

Really just the first line of code.  Simple change...

[ RaceListServers ]
IP = blw.net


That's it.  enjoy the return of your iGOR racelist.
