F1 69Xtra – Round 3 –  Spa-Francorchamps - Feb 19

Next stop of the 69X F1 at Spa-Francorchamps with the famous GP track in Belgium - some love it, some fear it...  

In S42 the tokens system will be used with drivers being awarded tokens for starting the season and for starting each race. Each car will cost a number of tokens per race.
Check the Season 42 details regarding rules and the 1969 F1 Championship pages in particular.

Important - please read it

A few drivers were unable to race in the first two rounds because the server was full and there have been a number comments regarding the mixing of drivers of different abilities on the same grid. Consequently the mod team have decided to split the grid into Privateers and Works drivers. From now on there will be two servers, one for the Works and one for the Privateers. The moderators have allocated drivers to either Works or Privateer status. If you would like to change your allocated status, please post your preference in this thread.

GLA + FUN

Have to vote myself back in for this series.
Perhaps a few more gentlemen drivers will be enticed to join with a split grid?
Sunday evening cruise through the Ardennes - what more could you want?

Please add Dave Curtis to the Privateers grid.

same pwd for the two servers ?

It's happened again this week.  Every 2 or 3 years, my 1969 carset refuses to load up.  It's Ok one day, and unavailable the next, without any reason for being, or unbeing so.  Computer cars should not need a rebuild every Season or two!  Do others here have this same problem?

Hoping a new GPL install, with a new set of 69x machinery, will run smoothly Online.  And to use a car I've never raced before.  It may need a sign stuck on the gearbox saying, "Running in, please pass."  Grumble!

No idea, but ask TvO - he should know how to

Thanks!!

I misjudged the tow at Spa (again!). I was sticking to the back of Doni but I misjudged the extra speed into Stavelot and I ran wide. Race over

Good luck to those still running, I hope we get enough finishers for a full podium
