UKGTL Season 2 (GTC-76 Cup) - Monza (GP) - Apr 19

[MortenS]

I can't find the Corvette 1969 or the 1974, I only have the 1965 and 1976. Can anyone please help me?

The 69 is the big Green machine

[MortenS]

Thanks Ruskus, for trying, but that didn't help me one bit. Is the 69 and 74 the same as the 65 and 76, or do I miss the right ones?

And by the way, how can you guys see how much fuel you use/need?

[MortenS]

Okay, I've got it, just logged on to practice session. But strangly when I set up my own game, they're called 65 and 76.

But I still have no clue to how much fuel I need, and how to find this out.

[Mr.BMW]

the corvettes don't show how many laps your current load of fuel will give?

It should show right in the car setup screen.

You should dump 21 laps of fuel into it

[MortenS]

Thanks, but in last weeks mini race, the setup screen was way off. And I'll probably go for the Capri tonight.

One  more thing: If I disconnect from practice, and try to reconnect, it'll just get back to the server list. Often I need to exit the game, and start it again, then I'll get straight in. Does anyone have this problem and know why?

[Adam Parle]

I'm going to have to give this one a miss.  My son's not been a happy little man this evening, only just got him off to sleep (I hope).

No laps under the belt, and more crucially I've not eaten yet ...... so hope you all have a good one.

[Splintheter]

Well hurry up and eat so you can join us

[Splintheter]

Nothing quite like being tagged in the 1st corner and now a 1:20 pit stop

Sorry Morten I also tagged you into the 1st corener on the 2nd lap.

[Mr.BMW]

I think that was me who bumped you splint.

It would have been due to lag if anything, because on my screen you were a good 6 inches in front of me, sorry for the race ruiner.


Great race up untill some BS came up at home, which prompted me to spin, smack the wall, and ultimately have to quit out of the game to take care of that BS.

Was almost half way done too

Well done Baracus, nice win
Nice podium finish for 1p and ASSASSINO also
Big respect for all the guys that spun and keep racing
A bit less for the lad that (when i was fighting for 3rd place, bump to bump)
hit me, made me spun, falling to 7th far away from the front guys
and 2 laps later he spun and quit race
Thats not the spirit of UKGTR/GTL drivers
Anyway, i believe you hit me unintentionally, but leave a race because a spin
i managed finish 4th, but too far from the podium

Thanks all for fairplay during this eternity 20 Monza laps

Cheers

[Splintheter]

No worries dude, these things happen, If I hadnt lost my head after the first corner I would have been fine, my times were good.

Great race guys!!!

[Nevski]

Qualified 3rd, only to see Assassino spin comically into the wall on the warmup lap, which effectively put me 2nd behind the extremely well sorted Pantera of Baracus. Race start and all goes smoothly into turn 1, but 1p is behind me and clearly thinks its a 40 second race rather than a 40 minute one. 
Cue the inevitable last of the late braking manoeuvres into the chicane to get past me, followed by the inevitable spin right in front of me, followed by the inevitable cut warning I get for taking evasive action 
My setup wasn't great and after the cut warning so early on I had to back off and drive conservatively into all the chicanes to avoid risking a stop and go penalty. This allowed Baracus to pull slowly away, while the nearest car behind was well out of sight by lap 3. Droning round Monza on my own like its a practice sesh.....   cue the inevitable falling asleep at the wheel and waking up with my nose wedged into a concrete wall 
The car was undriveable after that because it would only turn left - great for ovals, not so great for Monza. I pitted for what seemed like 25 minutes for repairs, and rejoined last of the runners. Several guys dropped out though, so I somehow managed to salvage 6th despite finishing nearly 2 laps down. 

[Splintheter]

Ditto, really dont like guys, that mess up or spin and the leave..... NEVER GIVE UP

I would have stayed in the race no problem as my spin was very minor, but some RL issues came up which actually caused the spin in the first place. Kind of peed me off, as my entire week of practicing and tweaking the Pantera was a waste to only complete 7 laps.

Sorry for bumping you as well, I bounced off the rumblepad into your rear quarter panel on that tight 3rd gear turn.
