Season 38 – CANM66+71 Fun Race – Le Mans by Night
To greet season 38 and 2021 - we are going to Le Mans, we will be racing the night version because of the better stability. The 24 Hours of Le Mans is the world's oldest active sports car race in endurance racing, held annually since 1923 near the town of Le Mans, France. It is one of the most prestigious automobile races in the world and is often called the "Grand Prix of Endurance and Efficiency". The event represents one leg of the Triple Crown of Motorsport; other events being the Indianapolis 500, and the Monaco Grand Prix.
Rolling Start!
Start procedure: Overtaking is prohibited until curve T4 - Tertre Rouge !!!
Flagman gives the start.
The polesitter drives ahead with a high but not full speed and the others follow him in a single line with safe distances. At the exit of turn 4 (Tertre Rouge) the race is released.
Race List | = | IGOR | Server | = | UKGPL_8 | IP Address | = | look at iGOR | Race date | = | 03-01-2020 | | GPL mod | = | CANM66 + CANM71 | 60fps patch used | = | 60fpsV2newmod | Track dir | = | nbsarthe | Qualification Race 1 | = | 20:45 UK time -> 15min | Race 1 | = | race starts at ~21:00 UK time | Qualification Race 2 | = | 21:35 UK time -> 15min | Race 2 | = | race starts at ~21:50 UK time | Race length | = | ~25 min -> 8 laps | Damage Model | = | Intermediate | Replay | = | here | Handicapping"Works" drivers will not use works cars.

GLA +FUN

That's odd, I can't seem to connect to either practice server.

Just tried all the UKGPL servers running the CanAms (UKGPL_8, UKGPL10 and UKGPL11) and I managed to connect to them all with no problems. So it looks like the problem is with the client side. No latency issues for me, the ping varies a bit but iGOR is typically showing the following pings:
UKGPL_8 = 61/61 UKGPL10 = 39/39 UKGPL11 = 38/38
Mark, What is iGOR showing for your pings?

Can't see any indication from server side of things for UKGPL10/UKGPL11 suggesting recent client disconnect due to slow response. I can see that other drivers have connected to both those servers within the last 24 hours/earlier today. I see Axel has got the race server online, so as he mentions - see if you can connect to that ok. If you still have specific issues connecting to UKGPL10/11, then please advise. If you also can't connect to UKGPL8, maybe try UKGPL4/5 with the other mods; they both look to have the same latency threshold configured. Cheers, Dave.

I’ve struggled to connect to the servers unless I start GEM2 first and start Igor through the GEM2 button. May be worth a try Mark.

Steve is your GPL folder in Program files(x86) folder? (it shoudn't!) Sometimes it helps to reconnect in game when the first attempt fails. I can join all server too...

Thanks Axel. No I have it in it’s own folder on a dedicated game drive. I don’t find it an issue as long as a start igor through Gem. It’s a little strange as I didn’t have to when I drove regularly a few years back. Not sure what’s changed. I need to check if it’s one particular server as I haven’t tested that yet.
This isn’t related to the this threads race, by the way. I don’t have Can-Am installed and haven’t tried joining this server. Was just posting with a potential quick fix.
