Windows update? There are no more Windows update,i have W-7.Normally the problem is due to some parameter setting but are memorized. Lately the setting was switched from PC to Playstation,than switched again to PC by me.I don't kmow if this could be a cause.

Hard luck Fran. It's a shame because you have been putting together a good season in the 55s.

Hi all Well done Clive, JonnyO and Phil Phil Concerning Clive, did you tell him that he was no longer entitled to win a race until the end of the championship?  My race, correct start but Bastian is on fire, he passes me at the first corner then also overtakes another driver, what speed !!!!!! I am careful because I fear the management of the brakes. I manage to iron Bastian who is at fault but come back to us Phil with great ease, his Maserati is blue and I imagine that it is a Gordini lol !!! I would like to test your setup because you were much faster than me with the same car. All the rest of the race, Bastian will put pressure on me, luckily I would manage to keep my place but without these errors he too would have passed because he was also very fast. Thanks to everyone and to the Admins Yesterday Magic had its birthday and tomorrow it will be Fluvio, so happy birthday friends |

Congrats to Jonny and Phil.
Right up until Sunday morning I was undecided which car to use, Evil's Lancia or the Merc. Eventually I decided that with the Lancia it was easier to keep the brakes healthy at racing speed. The test being "Do you at least have a yellow light when approaching Club?".
Prib says that the Lancia has a 1:42 in it but I don't seem to be able to find it. ;-(
This win must be down to everyone saving their tokens for IMS in two weeks time, and Evil taking a day off. What he was up to in qually is a mystery!
Jonny made a good start and it took a couple of corners to establish myself at the front. Once there I had a reasonable advantage over the chasing pack and was able to pull away for a reasonable comfort zone.
I made a mistake at Woocote on one lap, which brought Jonny back into slipstream range, but I think that his increased effort caused him to have a moment at Club. In fact, after what I had seen in my mirrors I was surprised that he was still running.
After that he dropped back a little and it wasn't until the last few laps, when I eased off to save having to lap the scrap between Doni and Dulma in their Economy Class Gordinis, that he was able to get closer.
Thanks to UKGPL for the racing.
See you at IMS.

Lately the setting was switched from PC to Playstation,than switched again to PC by me.I don't kmow if this could be a cause. If you are still using your USB3 hub, I would guess there is a strong chance this was the cause. As far as I can ascertain, anything that changes the USB inputs can cause the USB3 drivers to reconfigure with unpredictable results. I steer clear from using USB3 with my controllers (an English joke but not very funny in the circumstances  ). |

Even with this bit of bad luck, Fran has a very strong lead in the Privateers championship. A great season so far Fran  |

I would like to test your setup because you were much faster than me with the same car.
I used the default setup. I just changed the steering ratio from 20:1 to 10:1 and fuelled with 14 gallons. I've always found setups a personal thing. It all depends on driving style. I'm often slower with an Alien setup than I am with a default setup. It just happens that the default 55 setups seem to suite me. I can't say the same for the default 68E setups, they are undrivable for me. |

I saw the same incident from the exit of Stowe. I was a long way off so I didn't see clearly what happened but I was surprised JonnyO didn't damage his car and give me a chance to catch up. |

Anyway , until now, i did not have engine explosion  This morning i had the same problem in a test but after a recalibration seem all ok. Could be that the switch from pc to playstation causes loss of calibration? I 'm not sure for the moment, i must test again. |

If you are still using your USB3 hub, I would guess there is a strong chance this was the cause. As far as I can ascertain, anything that changes the USB inputs can cause the USB3 drivers to reconfigure with unpredictable results. I steer clear from using USB3 with my controllers (an English joke but not very funny in the circumstances Roll Eyes). For USB3 mean you a box with some USB socket?I have a box with 4 socket derived from the 2 USB that i have in my PC. One is used for the mouse and the other for the box.I don't have other solution since i have 3 device;the wheel,the pedals and the gear box. The 4th is used for the printer. |

Hehe yes it was a good start alain, thx for noticing.
I was having a fun race with alain, phil most of the time but my brakes were so red and the car was quite nervous.
So i was lucky touching the wall 3 times without damage and losing ground again and again.

Hi all! Save Accelerated!
First of all, I want to wish our brothers a happy birthday,to Magic and Fluvio, many laps on the track of life!
About the race, once again I had frame problems at the start, was only stabilizing at the end of the opposite straight.
With that, I lose a lot of positions at the start and I still jeopardize the race of others.
Silverstone is a big challenge for me, mainly in relation to the brakes.
Me, Doni and Bernie, we have a beautiful dispute.
Thanks Bernie, for returning the position in touch between us, I know you had problems with the brakes and you were a gentleman in waiting for me and returning the position
But with that Doni arrived and with his experience it was going to be difficult to sustain the position ahead of him
In a mistake of mine because of the brake, I lost my position to Doni
I tried everything to win it back but the brakes didn’t help to fight in the brakes
In downshifting I was starting to get worried about the engine temperature
So, the thing was to walk around and wait for his mistake, that it would be very difficult to happen
I ended up stuck in it and happy for the race.
Congratulations on the victory Clive Loynes and congratulations to the Jonny and Phill podium
