This track is quite detailed so some of you may need to turn down the track detail level if your FPS is low.

I must sadly announce that I'm starting my Inters season this day, at V8 Thunder. We'll race every Thursday with a break every 7th week If it's okay with you, I'll happily continue to race here every 7th week, but it's sad to see an Alpine race where I can't race. Best of luck to you.

Nice track, just tried it out. Unfortunately, the problem with my system that ended my first race with UKGTL, namely GTL crashing when online (and only when online, oddly enough) is still occurring. I hope to borrow my wife's PC to join you on Thursday evening. GTL works fine on it, I just have to keep her away from it for a couple of hours. Phil Gilliland

And some of the kerbs are vicious as well. I clipped one and suddenly found myself on the wrong side of the fence. Phil Gilliland

Fingers crossed all goes well Peter. Hope to see you in Season 3 - I'll miss the next 2 weeks due to an overseas conference. Bum

Thanks Steve, it's nothing too serious, just removing a lymph gland and cutting a bit of my tumour off. Should be out Friday.
It's next week the fun starts, more chemo, radiotherapy and some heavy drugs! It's going to be weird. I have had long hair since I was about twelve and now I'm going to go bald!
And how about this for an example of what a great country the UK is? Because I was working I get Statutary Sick Pay, £72 a week. And because of that I can't get free prescriptions, incapacity benefit or anything else. But I can get a free wig!
See you all at Cadwell.

1:14.757 in the Big Healey after about 15 minutes of practice - I see what you mean about the cut warnings!

Ugh, I only beat that by 0:0:400 in the Renault after 3 days of practice!!! These Renaults are going to Give the Ferrari and Shelby a challenge, where as the British Beasts are going to head up the pack it looks like. The PC is beating me by over 2 seconds in the Healy, and 1 in the Jag. I'm Top of the Renaults, better than the Ferrari, and a few hundredths behind the Shelby, so I can predict the top dogs are going to be 4+ seconds up on me :/ It will be a nice split grid battle i think tho, with the Renault and Ferrari battling out the lower end, The Jag and Healy for the top, and the Shelby dipping into a bit of both.
