Check your car allowance herePractice: ~19:20 (60 mins) Qualifying: 20:20 (20 mins) Drivers must not leave qualifying to change car make.Race 1: 20:40 (20 laps) Time of Day Setting: 14:00 Start: STANDING Tyre wear: Normal Fuel consumption: Normal Pit stops required: No 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: None

Very hard car/track combination. Training hard will be required. Be careful at the beginning, there is a spike at the guardrail.

Oh you have found the spike already. What about the lamp post's and the concrete filled hay bails?

2:13.3 from me. I upload the setup if someone wants to take a look. Maybe lowering the tire pressure can bring more pace, we will see.

Yep, I can believe that. We had a race here once and only one driver (out of nine) finished. And that driver was Dominick.

The older carset do. The carsets we are using do not. I will explain all soonest (or tomorrow) The blue one I was using Tony, was def. from the new car set (with UKGTL suffix), and it has 2 types of Dunlop. I do have the same, non-UKGTL car in my garage too, so dunno if the two share files and that explains it. Would seem unlikely I would think, as I have just installed the new set, allowing it to overwrite overlapping files.

Yep, it's a file duplication thing. The files are in two different locations.
To fix this go to your Teams and Cars folder and look for these files.
Aston_Martin_Vintage_30V2.tyr 250TR_VM55_b.tyr Dunlop_VM2.tyr
The correct files all have a date of 14/03/2021. These should be left as is.
All other files found should be renamed using Notepad by changing .tyr to something else e.g. .tyrsaf.
I hope this helps.

A little gutted to have to quit when I was beginning to enjoy myself. I had a slide which put me in the undergrowth and then, made such a horlicks of the rejoin that I was in a very dangerous place for cars approaching.... so I hit the ESC key. I found the Merc extremely stable and driveable, but the Ferrari 250 setup that I found in the online folder was like driving on ice!! Fun, but ultimately was going to end in tears

On paper a track I should love: street/road circuit, fast sweeping bends and some elevation changes. In reality though, all the more or less hidden traps weigh it down - they seem put there with the specific purpose of ruining your day. Very surprised to run away with pole, given DD's phantomish lap time in practice, but his stream from qual shows how little it takes to compromise your lap on this track. In offline practice I hit the spike you talk about, flipping my car onto the other side of the barrier. Never encountered that invisible alien or whatever it was you ran over in the same area though DD took the lead on L1, and unsurprisingly, I couldn't keep up - he had after all gone around 3 secs faster than my best on reduced fuel, so not much I could do. My fight was with the guys behind - initially Matt & Dan, but I think they had trouble at the first hairpin after a couple of laps, and were replaced with Fulvio. He seemed to drive a very steady race, so I could never relax, even if the gap was stretching; just so easy to screw up and ruin the race. Grats to DD on the win & Fulvio on 3rd. Commiserations to the victims of the track. Btw, anyone else have a very weird sounding Mercedes? From the outside, in replays, it sounds normal, but from the inside, it's like two different engine noises are mixed together. One of them sounds like a vague version of the Merc SLR. Dunno if it's another file mixup.

I knew this circuit from Altbierbude as I said earlier. I was quick there but as I also said - I had to DNF because of the spike: see 1:09:30 here - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-6nkK09pbiUSo I had to be careful especially after I hit a post at one of the fast right corners that was more solid then the Moon itself. At the quali I just couldn't make the amazing 2:11 from practice, maybe the pressure now was making impact. I was just 2 thousands of the second behind Erling. At the stat everyting was OK and after Coyote made a small mistake, sliding the car I was now leading the race and I was able to keep it, crossing the chequered flag first. Sympathies to the victims of the circuit and grats to Erling and Fulvio on their podiums. Great beginning ot 2022 for Fulvio with a win and a podium - hope he will be more present this year. Race replay + some RBR action with Hristo: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JYoalYV7nYg

Not me Guv, my Merc sounded fine. And I've not touched the sound files, honest. Go to your Sounds folder and within you should have a folder called AMG_6,8l_SEL
