Championship standings HERE Grid/server capacity: 22 Car/Track download available by pm to WT Track: Sebring (12h Course) Practice: ~19:20 BST (60 mins) Qualifying: 20:20 BST (20 mins) Race: 20:40 BST (22 laps) Time of Day Setting: 14:00 Start: STANDING Tyre wear: Normal Fuel consumption: Normal Pit stops required: YES Server: simracing.org.uk Monday 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 |

Anyone else getting poor FPS at this track. I've had to turn down a load of Video options to get anything close to driveable FPS and it's still not good.

No, haven't noticed any problems. Will check my fps when I practice later today. |

I've managed to get 60FPS but there is not much more I can reduce to improve that.

IMPORTANTPlease post "Pit In" message on the long straight before the final turn. Also after pitting, rejoin the track once passed the double white lines on your left. Thank you

Strange. Just did an online test; I get from 120 - 220 FPS. That's with all settings maxed, apart from shadows, which are 'medium'. This on an ancient 1-gen Core i7 platform, with Radeon RX-480 running 1440p, with 8x AA & Supersampling, in Win7. Not exactly a state of the art setup. |

Virtua_LM tracks are often heavy on graphics.
With all cores enabled I get low of 255 high of 450, depending on which part of the track
around 300 passing the end of the pits. Vehicles are full, other stuff is default
except shadows which are low. If you haven't already, that would be a good option
to turn off of course.
Machine is quite hi spec - Ryzen9 3900XT with an RTX3080 graphics card.
I usually get 600 or more on some tracks, so this one is relatively heavy.

Another nondescript race for me.
Nightmarish car/track combo - a car this skittish & overpowered, on a track about as smooth as a badly ploughed field...
Apart from some early intermezzos with Clive & Dan, with position swaps depending on who got out of shape, the race was utterly lonely for me. Only other car seen was a brief rendezvous with Daz in the pits at half distance. Can't say boring, as the car/track kept you on your toes at all times, but some closer racing would have been welcome.
Grats to Daz & Ziu; commiserations to those who fell by the wayside.
Thanks to Daz btw, for uploading setup. Would have liked to try it, but 2 mins before qual was way too late for me to try something new, so had to stick with my own.
