yay managed to finish a race for once with out crashing, its been a journey of rebuilding my PC around 5-6 times and including buying a new motherboard/processor thinking the one I had bought at Christmas was broken and wouldn't boot, it all came down to a doggy sata cable in the end!!! so I have a second hand new hardly used gigabyte x570 aorus pro £150 and a rysen 7 3700x for £200 if any body is interested? interesting race I wasn't taking it too seriously as I was really testing my rig to see if it was OK. seems like a few too the hard tires. had a good time racing with Toni very close but he went off 2 laps from the end and gave me forth which I was please with. not raced at this track before so took a bit of getting used to but all in all a good day for me. if you are interested in those bits email me on [email protected]Cheers JP

these cars are very different from the last time I used them, it seems they have wooden tires, nice race I enjoyed but I never managed to be fast. kudos to Geoff very fast this year. Hello everybody

Does anyone have an actual driveable setup for the BMW?. Sorry, did not have a setup until shortly before racetime, but I can post it now if you want to try it out? I am really enjoying the BMW - not possible to tame it completely, but it's a lot of slidey fun at the right track. Poor start, but a lot of good fun in the race, first with Leonardo, later with Massimo in their Mercs. Sorry to see Pete suddenly disappear again, this time on the opening lap - did the game quit on you again? Congrats Geoff and Massimo.

Sorry to see Pete suddenly disappear again, this time on the opening lap - did the game quit on you again? A different computer issue this time Coming out of T1 a VR menu pop-up thing appear blocking 80% of my view. In trying to clear that I also managed to quit the game I think it was the menu you can get click a button on the VR controllers, but these were both off. No idea why it came up, never done that before. Pity as I had a good start it would have been a fun race with quicker drivers behind me trying to get passed. At least next week is crocheting week so I can calm down before my next race.

Spanner sorry about me being stationary at the start but couldn’t get the engine fired up in time!
That's OK Bill, I wasnt going to last long as i hadnt put fuel in it and the handling seems vastly different from the few laps i got in till then. You have to start the engine? That doesnt sound right! Earlier in the week i decided to delete my graphics setting file and moved the install to my main SSD as it was still on the spinny hard drive. However I hadnt anticipated that it would not see all my settings folder and keep creating a new one. As time was running out i just set up the main controls and jumped in with the sounds well off, assists on, driving line etc and had to juggle both car setup and FFB/sound/graphics/ UI settings. So admittedly i only did a couple of out laps. Bill being stationary didnt help as i spun the car into the wall and the car felt horrible and then saw i still had the default fuel in. Was only afterwards i realised i just needed to change the text file to point at the new folder location.

Bill, do you have keys/buttons mapped for the ignition & starter? If so delete them, the engine will start automatically then.

unfortunately the misfortune of the crash in qualifica made me leave the server .. but I managed to get back on the fly! on the race pace I was prepared I knew that the audi was faster having tried it but the mercedes wore less tires .. I had fun at the end with many battles in the group and the one for second place! congratulations to geoff and frex
