You decide which race you enter which make in. RACE ONEPractice: ~19:25 (60 mins) Qualifying: 20:25 (5 mins) Drivers must not leave qualifying to change car make. One attempt at a timed lap onlyRace: 20:30 (10 laps) RACE TWO & RACE THREE will follow, with same rulesTime of Day Setting: 14:00 Start: STANDING Tyre wear: Normal Fuel consumption: Normal Server: simracing.org.uk Wednesday Password: see aboveNotes: (1) It's best if all drivers can make sure they are connected before the Qualifying session as drivers on track during qualifying will not see cars that join after they are on track until they go back to the garage. (2) Please make sure you are fully aware of the SimRacing.org.uk Rules. (3) The AI control should be turned off so that you have control of the car at all times, including pitting. Your player file should therefore read Autopit="0" Force Autopit Off="1" // Forces autopit always off No AI Control="1" // AI never has control over car If you still finding pitting problematic, experience tells us that its less to do with positioning and more to do with approach speed. A slow approach to pit crew chief has proved most reliable. Special Notes: Turn off cuts

Welcome to beautiful Leipzip, City of fine art museums, a zoo and a Coffee museum? Also worthy of a mention are the slippery road surfaces, the catastrophic chicane's, the killer kerb's and the lethal lamp post's. Cuts are on, but they are fair. Enjoy

I have not d/loaded this track yet, but from the description it sounds like the same as we have over in GPL. The reputation of this track is so daunting that many drivers simply refuse to take part in any races around these streets lol. It is almost as if the track designers carefully placed lamp posts exactly where the tail of a car might hang out 10cms too far on the slippery cobbled surface, or made the kerbs just a little higher where one might be tempted to try and squeeze the racing line. Oh, and if it has those slippery cobbled surfaces, you had better hope that it does not rain. If you find Monaco a challenge, you'll just love Leipzieg I will stick my neck out here and say that I like this track in GPL and enjoy the challenge. Now watch me launch my chosen car skywards over a kerb before wrapping it around an ornate cast iron lamp post on lap 1

The anti-cut police has forgot their glasses. I recieve a cut in places were there is no way you can cut - just like the last chicane

You can't win here by a cut Tony, so please remove them if nobody is against that call. It will be double punishment - for example if you go on the kerb after turn 2, the game gives you cut and you lose time.

This track has always been about making precise cuts anyway, at least in GPL, so that shouldn't be punished as it's so easy to lose time doing it rather than gain any advantage.

I'll make an Admin note, so that cuts will be turned off at this track in future.

I was doubtful about attending tonight's trio. I had my 1st Covid jab on Monday and unfortunately I'm one of the 1 in 10 who gets side effects. Just flu like symptoms but knocked me for six. Feeling very weak now after those three events. Still rather that than the actual Covid.

Hope you feel better soon Tony.
A night to laugh at from my point of view, not a lot went right.I'm thinking I might have used up all my luck whilst driving the Scirrocco!
All my quali laps were slower than I managed in practise a couple of nights ago, and I managed to crash lots in every race so that was that really. This has never been very high on my lost of tracks to race on, great for hotlapping for the challenge of getting it right, but so very dangerous in the race....Apologies to all those I either contacted, span in front of, and just plain put off with my general shenanigans tonight....
Well done to the podium guys, top marks.

Lucky guys, Tony and Dimitar & good luck I don't expect that I'll get any chance for vaccination before summer due to German and European bureaucracy and lack of vaccine. Probably have to cancel my six week Denmark holidays (already booked last August) in May/June within the next weeks due to the pandemic, no vaccination and the fact that the Danish border is still closed for private travellers (at least I have the chance to cancel for free until six weeks before the trip). Very depressed about the perspective as I travel alone and I'll be alone for six weeks (kind of eremitism) only being outside riding on my bicycle and sitting in the dunes watching the horizon Another lost year.
