Blimey this will separate the men from the boys in these cars 

shame its not 'historic' Monaco but should be fun and definitely challenging!

One of the tracks I was looking forward to the most...can't make it  .

Unfortunatly there isn't a "legal" historic version of Monaco. There is only this and a '88 version AFAIK, but this one is a bit better looking and the armco is a bit further away, which I thought might come in handy

Tried the "historical" version, but honestly is too much bumpy, is like a gimkana race

Fewer trees than Donington;  so maybe that's good...

hmm, after doing a few laps here I can see some carnage!    its a very good mod track and looks stunning. Most of the lap is great, but the only thing I think they cocked (and what will really affect our race) is the chicane out of the tunnel is ridiculously tight. Do some laps and you will see what I mean, You have to brake so early and gently with that notoriously bumpy downhill out of the tunnel otherwise 8 times out of 10 you either lock up and skid over the rumbles incurring a penalty or you almost stop and turn frantically...hard work with an ffb steering wheel.  
Another tough race ahead  

though I see our resident aliens have already set some startling times

Link doesn't work 

Tricky track though. Sorely missing that downforce 

Bit late aswell but there seems to be a 1966 version available:

Actually looks almost completely different from what it is now

Late indeed, as we already discussed that track  . It's a rip from rF2, so not really useable here .

Oh, forget I said anything then 

Shame as that last section looks so much better for these cars then the modern track.

How are we on track limits today?
I can see some unintentional cutting after the tunnel section. Lift off to make sure we don't gain anytime from it should be enough?

I have an appointment tonight, so not sure if i will make the start in time.

Yes, just be sensible. If you can avoid an incident by cutting, then cut, but just give back any advantage you've gained.

Cutting during your fastest lap in qually will result in a qually ban for the next race.

If somebody can upload the replay, that'd be great .

[phspok]

how do you make it only save the race? rather than the whole session?

[ChrisR]

Open the whole replay then drag the far left/right thingies to where you want the start and finish places and click save
