is anybody interested to do a le mans race on saturday evening ?
i was thinking about a 2 or 3 hour race starting at 21:00.
normally i would be at le mans at this moment to enjoy the atmosfere and the race this weekend, but due to circumstance i can't be there this year.

Unfortunately I might not be able to do a long race this saturday  It's a great idea though, two hours without a driver change is more practical and at another time I would love to do it  |

I'll get there if i don't drink too much.
If your serious, you should organise some hosting for it if you aint, also ask a Moderator to bump the tread up "Announcements | Fun Races" and get in calendar.

Thanks for the link I've installed the track on the server, and when selecting a race I see there are several options, 2003 Le Mans, plain Le Mans, Dawn/Dusk etc. Have you one in particular in mind? |

If you *do* fancy a break from the regular track, Dawn LeMans is a beaut of a track |

Sounds very interesting. I did an online lemans race with 6 other drivers and it was a blast, although it was only for about 1/2 hour. It is a fun track to drive and would be a great to see 15-20 members out there. It's fun being next to another car or two crusing down the long straight at top speed. With the race being 2 hours or more, pitstops would just add to the challenge.
I look forward to seeing some other tracks than the originals being used for fun races, such as lemans here.

Well its one of the few things that does work in the game :-) unfortunately it aint cool, it aint cool at all... It causes a track load. Pretty piss poor in this day and age. |

yup that's a bit of a dissapointment, it would be cool if you could have a realtime change from day to night without that track reloading bit. another thing that i figured out is that you could only host a 1990 24h lemans session, i went i had a look in the lemans.gdb file and found a "nomp" line deleted that one, and hey you can host a 24h lemans race with the last track. i have a test server running at this moment called Le Mans 24H (set on 100%)., only bit is that it supports 350kb/s upload. so if you guys wanna give it a try, and drive 24 hours, be my guest :-)   |

Lo peeps, My first post here so be gentle with the replies  . I just drove some Le Mans just now, but it was the 1990 version with the awesome long straight (no hairpins). Perhaps it's an idea to pick that 1, cause I can manage a 3.45 on that 1 which seems to be a good time for others on the 'hairpinned' version, lol! Anyways I'll try to be there! (And hopefully by that time I can login to that FMI stuff  ) T |
