Season 34 – 1955 Grand Prix – Round 5 – Albi
The fifth race in the 1955 Grand Prix series takes us to Albi, small town in the Midi-Pyrénées region of France. Racing first started on the Circuit des Planques in 1933, the pits and startline being on a short straight before the road twisted down into St.Antoine. At St.Juery the cars had to contend with an extreme hairpin bend, followed by a railway level crossing. The 5.531 mile circuit was shortened in 1951 to 1.859 miles, before being closed in 1955 following the Le Mans disaster. Racing resumed at the nearby Aerodrome in 1959 which is the circuit we now know as Albi. The Chicane du Sequestre was introduced in 1988 but we will be using the original layout as raced in 1967. Please read the championship specific rules on the championship standings page.

Password: see aboveDriver lists can be found on the championship standings pageHandicapping and chassis allocation.This season the 1955 Grand Prix cars will again be using a token system which allows drivers to purchase any chassis of their choice for a given number of tokens as published on the championship standings page. Drivers classed as Amateurs will be allocated an additional 10 tokens. The token allocation will not be managed in SRou this season so (unlike the 67F1 Works and 67F1 Privateer divisions) the tokens available to each driver will not appear in the championship table (when the mouse pointer is hovered over the driver's total). Rather, the available tokens will be published in the race announcement. See table below. Available Tokens:Note: These are the tokens available to each driver before the 10 tokens are added for making the race start.

I seem to remember that this was a real challenge last season from a braking point of view.
This would be a good place to have a second brake condition light on the dash. One that tells you the condition of the brakes on the car behind so that you know if it's safe to turn in front of him!

There is an outside chance that I may not make this race as we are booked to see the grandchildren on Sunday, which is around 100 miles away. In theory, we should be back early evening, but........................................... Hope to be back, but given my run of DNF's it is hardly going to have an impact on the championship

Do you have Albi in the 55season.ini ?
In igor options does the path to your gpl 55 install fit?

I think he tells you to go through Gem to gpl selecting in Gem mod55, your player for 55, and all your 55 things
If that works when you go through iGor it should work too
Good luck

Again the problem of the gear,this time i have not cheked before to start from the box and i have found the Lancia with only 4 gear. obliged to chose a 4 gear car,the Vanwall probably is not the best.With the Lancia i was able to go under 1,26 but with the Vanwall was a succes to go under 1,27. Sorry Rich for the touch at lap 5 but we was both with red brake.
