It's great, I love it in real life - Anglesey is good also (I've had some great days there) but not 'quite' up there. Much better views though on a nice day

They'll take it down - they're very grumpy about that sort of thing so PM is as good as it'll get

EDIT: If I remember right, I advertise some events there without any problems or maybe it was otherway around...

Mark, Myself and others have advertised stuff here. When I asked to do the same there I was asked not to. Seems daft as we never run the same stuff so aren't competing against each other even, but there you go.

Yes that's strange, and I also kinda remember having advertised there yet.. Or maybe it was here for theirs ? Still as Kimi said, as long as the events don't compete each other, it's sad that we can't maximize our chances to get a nicer grid (if composed of respectful drivers ofc).

As a heads up - We have had some server issues over the last week and have moved to a nice shiny new one today as a result thanks to Pete I've been on and tested it and all seems good, but I thought it better to run a test race next week instead of round 1 given that A - the server is untested. B - It should have been running Anglesey and the 911's since Wednesday but I couldn't get on there to do it. As compensation we'll be racing at Anglesey in the Lotus Type 25's for half an hour instead, they seem to be good fun there and it will help non-UK track goers learn their way around the place

2 questions for you Tim : 30mn is a nice quick format. Couldn't we consider a 2nd race for example in full reverse grid ? These Lotus are lovely, maybe a future series ?

No chance of a reverse grid after the Easters As for the Lotus'. I'm game, and we've even had a very good season with them in the past - But I was actually considering the GPL67's for a season at some point

GPL67's sound even better indeed! I tried the next weeks combo yesterday evening. And altough we have had a series in these cars before, I was having a blast with the new to me VR experience in this car. Great car on a 2D screen, but the cockpit detail is very impressive in VR too. Combined with the nice sounds and nice physics I kept running laps on my own until past midnight.

Go try either of the 917's, and then go for a walk around the Ferrari 312 and Lotus 49. The detail is incredible in VR!

I'd like to turn up, though I remember the car to be pretty tricky, I'll try it over the weekend. Do you need to specify skins?
