I had my first good race tonight  Thanks for the last lap battle Dave real do or die into the last lap. That was good fun but very hard work. I'd had quite an interesting scrap with Will16v earlier, the Vette being very fast but obviously really struggling for traction. Unfortunately I made a last minute change to the Healey just before qualifying started, and whilst I managed to get it setup comfortably, in the race is started cooking its tyres every time I started to defend a position. I looped it letting Will past and then let Whit through too on the last lap. The stupid thing is I thought I had one more lap to go, having forgotten that we were a lap down, and was expecting to retake the place using the Healey's greater straight line speed - then the chequered flag was out and I was gutted!  :'( Managed to let LeH and Pero through together as they were obviously having a good scrap. After that I couldn't be so accomodating when being lapped 'cause I always seemed to be in a fight with somebody, but from what I saw all the lapping cars were being very careful and sensible when coming through us slowcoaches.  The start was rather strange - my limiter seemed to be set faster than the Elan in front  and then when it looked like he actually went and I did too I was off like a rocket in comparison - had to back out quite dramatically to avoid going into T1 alongside.  |

It's definitely on the client side, I have it turned off so I can do doughnuts.  |

think I found it just after I posted!! I remember creating 2 users now... I think I applied a money cheat to one, because I hadn't earned all the cars for multiplayer |

This was my first race for Team GhostSpeed and it was very nice again.
Pero did really an awesome job in the Cobra. I thought I would make pole with my quali time, but Pero beat it close to session end, so I didn't have enough time for another try.
I didn't push too hard at the beginning of the race, since I thought the GT40 was superior anyways, but Pero was really fast with the Cobra, so I started to doubt if it really would be able to catch him. After about one third of the race, Pero didn't accelerate out of the first chicanes optimally, so I could use his slipstream and overtake him braking into Adelaide chicane. From then on I tried to find the right mixture between going easy, to not risk a stop & go or an accident, and keeping a distance to Pero, who still was pushing until the end, and was never further behind than about 5 seconds.
Later on I had some scary situations with some lappers, but could avoid a big accident. The touch from you, Pero, was no problem.
Good race.
Oh yea, and I also missed you, Ruskus !

I think it was a file change or something... I got it off the GTL RSC forum a while back. I didn't wanna screw up the career I was doing, so had to create another user just in case Is there any way of changing my name of my driver, without creating a whole new user? |

If it works like rFactor (it probably does) you can just change the name of the directory within UserData and the name of the .PLR file inside that too. Worth a try but make a backup first! |

The start was rather strange - my limiter seemed to be set faster than the Elan in front and then when it looked like he actually went and I did too I was off like a rocket in comparison - had to back out quite dramatically to avoid going into T1 alongside. That was me in Elan Dave, i was having problems with PC, it switched to desktop for a few seconds and done some dumbass autoplay crap (been getting it in Bf2 but never GTL/GTR until this race) and reverted back to game which coincided with the start of race and thats why i didnt react to start or wasnt up to your limiter speed beforehand. Happened once after the start causing me to crash Have changed set up in my disk drives and hopefully sorted it. Sorry to all behind me (not many cause i qualified 19th!) cause after i got going it left a big gap between me and cars behind. Got to say for us at the back the grid, the warm up lap was an absolute nightmare, one minute were going flat out and next we almost stopped dead. Dont normally qualify at the rear (or the front lol) of the grid, so im not sure if this is down to a natural concertena affect or an erractic pace lap by cars ahead. Does anyone know the forum name of Phil Kerins? Cant see his name in the member list Cheers, Bri |
