Skin Pack 1.5 test - 21 May (post new/updated cars here!)

[Simon Gymer]

I got connected, but didn't get a chance to race.

Only one problem with the skin pack for me...
Very minor, but the RVS team Lamborghini had the standard 36 black lamborghini icon in the menus when it should have had it's own. The car itself was fine.

I didnt get a chance to do the icon Shark.



Oh and the race,  Crashed ..... errmm where was it now? ... oh yeah in one of the chicanes.

No problems here with anything. It was nice to take C5r out for a run but the lack of straight line speed meant I had to take a few chances with the tyre walls to keep up with Zacari. I guess in the end I ran out of luck and my Vette went to the Virtual scrapheap   Nice wins Zac n' TT

Great pace set by Zac and Jon, way to quick for me.
Apologies to Gerald, not sure what happened, car locked up and I couldn't avoid you, hope it didn't cause you any damage.

[Zacari]

No problems here either, Paul968's 360 is great as are all the new cars!  For the race Jon was miles faster in the twisty sections but with 1-6 wing settings and more horses I could bundle off on the straights, then one of us lost out to the tyer-barrier lottery good battle up to that glad we dont race there in the sprint and endurance seasons though!

[Paul968]

I can take no credit for the 360 - Ginsters was the creative genius who came up with that one (isn't it great!)

Was doing fine in the race, with a big lead in NGT until I got a bit of a wobble on out of one of the chicanes and got collected by a GT. The resultant damage cost me about 2 laps while I pitted. Really glad we don't race there now.

I was lucky to have them frontrunners outrace themselves, lol.     Then it was just bring it home slowly. Bad luck Jon, when you and Zacari lapped the first time I could see Zac sweat...     Then a big tower of black smoke appeared and oh, oh...   :'(

Good win Zac!  

I saw no missmatches whatsoever. Seems  a good sign to me, so GJ Rich.     And other artists, of course.

Managed to clip the 1st tyre tower on the 1st lap, rofl! N00b mistake 2, cause 1 was changing some settings just before race and not testing them...
N00b mistake 3 was not changing tyres during pitstop, thinking I only need repairs...
N00b mistake 4 was driving out of pit and getting sort of in the way of lapping traffic (not helped tbh by having a punctured front left...)
So soz to Enz (I think) who I clipped a bit there
That was about it, managed a 10th place, only tenths behind Paul968 in the end, lol. Glad this wasn't an official season race, although I would like to drive Enna in 1 . Hope I made all mistakes in this 1 'test' race and none in the upcoming 'real' ones

No problems with the carpack. Thanks Jon

Good wins Zac and TT.

Am I the only one wanting to race there again? I never had any problems with the tyre walls at this track. Only my own stupidity caused problems to me here

Edit: Looks like I'm not the only one after all

When I got back to my PC and the race had started I had a look through the cars driving round on track and I spotted Paul's arse. Thought wtf?! It's a Ferrari and it says Porsche on the back, then the penny dropped as I read the rest of it and had a good chuckle to myself. Good one SBG.

Think i might stick SHARK ON  BOARD sticker on the back of the GTR2 cars, or IF YOU CAN READ THIS YOU'RE ABOUT TO OVERTAKE ME.

[picnic]

Can we do Adam a "Baby on Board" sticker 

[Mark J]

Through a team admin error, my Saleen GT skin never got submitted by my illlustrious team leader :'( 
I only found out myself when i loaded up the 1.5 skin pack
Is there any remote chance i can get it added as a skin pack add-on?...or have i missed the proverbial boat?

I understand fully if its too late. I'll just have to carry on racing in my non-descript 'pikey' standard colour GT car :'(

The ship has sailed I'm afraid. I wasn't really intending doing another refresh because of the impending arrival of a certain GTR2...

Everything worked fine and looked great at my end. Those Sonic cars are really striking. Had to leave at 9, but I had enough of Enna by then anyways. Set a new PB within first 4 laps in the 550 then proceeded to whack the tyres for the next half hour trying to improve.  Not my favourite track  .

Be real shame if GTR2 can't be skinned, as its good fun once the initial aggro is done. Thanks to all involved and Rich for being persistent in the face of some initial resistance (me included  )

[Simon Gymer]

The 28CD cars looked good too. Good colour scheme and the team colours are uniquely distinctive compared to all the other teams so nice and easy to recognise. Great work chaps.
