It was the full 1955 F1 grid that made this championship a very attractive scenario (& opportunity) for me.
At this moment, we are 26 registered drivers for mod 55. Could you give us the link to a GPL patch allowing 26 drivers on the same grid ? BTW, 14 or 15 drivers in work serie is not far from a full grid.

When everyone is on the grid, it’s impossible for me to drive, I didn’t manage to fix my problem, I am withdrawing from the mod 55 championship
An excellent championship, a mod that I love to run, but not

Before you do may I suggest you try to reduce the "Detail Bias" in GPL Graphics Options. I have a very good graphics card but I still have to reduce the detail bias to 50%. If I try to race with more detail I get fps problems; especially at the start! With 50% the cars still look good. I suggest you test your graphics settings against 19 AI drivers. The start will be a big test. I can set the server up with a some AI drivers if you want to test on the server.

You boys are going to have some fun at Torino ! Just to see what it was like I tried the Connaught at it and the brakes were gone in two laps, don't think the brakes were quite that bad back in the 50s Mind you I didn't know there was brake fade built into the 55 Mod so suddenly though my brake pedal pot had broken until I looked it up !! Will look forward to seeing the race report

Will look forward to seeing the race report You are probably right Mike, brake fade wasn't that bad back then but we don't die when we hit a wall either and I appreciate that departure from reality. I think that the 55mod is quite clever in that they have incorporated the brake fade at a level where they dictate that the cars must be driven in a certain way. You cannot use the brakes as a steering aid as you do in the other mods or the original 67 cars. If you do then you will not have any brakes for the second lap. You may also be right that Phil may have given himself plenty of work in the race report.

Sad news. When GPL was new, 800 x 600 was usual, with 36fps only possible on a quiet track. Maximum I've ever used is 1600 x 1200. A GP car has a high compression motor, and without fuel, it will slow an F1 faster than a normal passenger car. We have raced these cars at Monaco, as they did in 1955.

Hi all, i'm a newcomer of GPL after very long time ( since i was 10 on 1999 ) and i just discovered how far this sim has gone in 20 years with plenty of mods and tracks. I downloaded a bunch of mods and tracks over the last few months , I would like to race with other people around and... i just discovered this league covering one of my favourite F1 history era. Is it allowed to join the league even if the season has started yet?

Hi Phil, thank you! Just completed the poll.
Hi Giovanni I've put you in the Privateers for the first race. Please have a look at the previous race replays for this season (there are links on the race announcements page) for both the Works and Privateers so you know what driving standards are expected. There are a couple of incident reports in the Works races that you should read and understand so you know what to be careful of. Go to the championship page, you can navigate to the races via the flags against each race in the Works and Privateers championship tables. Don't forget to test your connection to the race server when it appears on iGOR (I'll set both the Works and Privateers going tomorrow night and leave them on until the race).

Yes please join qually Dulima. If you think the connection/FPS is good enough to race it would be great to see you on track.

Good morning all ! I am French and my English is almost only "Google" I would like to restart GPL ... I like the 55 mod and although the championship is soon over could I test a race with you? I do not know however what is the best way to reinstall LPG and especially what is necessary for your races! Can I go with a demo 2020 installation as described here? http://www.gplworld.de/en/grand-prix-legends/gpl-easy-installation-guideI haven't run LPG online for a century !!! Thanks

Welcome Christian. Looks like Google has changed GPL to LPG. An expert will be along soon to advise but if you know that you like the 55mod then I guess that you must have that running? There is a test server running at the moment for tonight's races. Can you join it? You will need iGOR and the correct 60fps patch. (60fps Patch = 60fpsV2newmod)
