Yes, we're waiting for the webspace Tyf has generously setup to filter it's domain changes through before it works. Hopefully wont be long now.

Gonna set a BIG BUMPER on for this one (inserts a pic of Mel Gibsons truck from Mad Max 2)

I have d/led the 2002Monaco track from Tyfs site - is this the same one? If so, when I try to use GTRManager to install it, it says its not a GTRManager addon file

No it's not quite the same. UKGTR's one includes AI updates and a tunnel fix. The layout of the track is the same though if you want to practice/
Tyf's files are not GTR Manager compatible.

When the UKGTR one is available please uninstall any you have and install this one. It is also GTR Manager compatible.

This sounds like fun. A very hard track with not so fast cars can give close battles. Never driven the Beamer tho.

[Simon Gymer]

Thanks to Zacari for testing Monaco and finding out a good car to drive round it.

If the link isn't up soon, I may need an emergency hosting location (probably right here on the SimRacing website). 

[Paul968]

I'll host it Simon - just send me details and I'll give you a link.

Downloaded fine here, now installed on the server and running a practice session there if anyone feels like trying it

[Simon Gymer]

Excellent cheers Tyf.

Hopefully that subdomain will work soon too. I've adjusted the URL in the original post to the full path.

Just downloaded the track and installed it with ModMan FWIW.

Am I stating the bloomin obvious when I say, boy, this is one difficult track?

Any set-up tips for the Z3? I can't seem to get enough grip at the back and am tending to lock and slide when braking occasionally.

[Colin Paxton]

Well Paul, If its anything like racing at Monaco in GPL its all slip and slide 

[PaulW]

Actually, I'm slowly cobbling something together that's quite stable- if anyone wants to make use of the set-up then just shout. Frankly, the better prepared for this we all are the more chance we have of more than one car finishing
