High Axel

Is this the "new" version of the TT track ?

Got the download from fastlane , seems to have installed OK,  but , I cant get it run In GPL .

The fastlane says something about having to have the 67 patch installed 

How do I check if I have this and where to get this patch from ?

Great Axel , I got it  sorted eventually    not a lot of time to practice this track , Jim Pearson did a marvelous job on it , hats off to the guy .

BTW which Fanatec wheel did you have , there seem to be several options of CAA ?

A great drive by Cookie to take the win. I made too many mistakes. Great track and fun to drive, I'm pleased to see most people enjoyed it. The track deserves to be used a bit more often, we need to do justice to Jim's wonderful creation.

Grats to all finishers. If you struggled, please persevere. The track is a joy to drive when you can remember were it goes next 

I learned this track when Jim released it, he asked for help to find hidden walls and other traps,
we found some...

Grats to the podium guys and all that finished. I almost bailed out as my FF vanished just after I joined quali. Left the server and went back to GEM and discovered that within CONTROLS all FF settings were back at zero. It was so long ago that I set those that I not a clue as to the required values, so I had to guess and then road test...then adjust and road test...then adjust and road test. Then it cleared them all again!!  bizarre. So I rebooted PC and enetered some random values. The result was surprisingly good except that I had severe vibration at any point that the steering was not under load. Does anyone know which of the 3 parameters needs to be tweaked to eliminate that? because hanging on to the wheel on the fast stretches was most uncomfortable!!

Despite all of that......the 2nd was my best lap ever at this monster, with only 2 resets and a 20+ minute lap lol. For the first time I used Jim Pearson's pace notes, well I used the overhead numbers indicating which gear to use, although for my BT11 I found that it worked better with one gear higher than indicated except on the 1st and 2nd gear corners. If I could just eliminate those places where I ran just half a meter too wide and clipped the grass banks I think I could start to approach Axel and Phil. Greg was motoring along quite quickly too 

As Phil and Cookie have already pointed out, knowing what is around the next blind bend is the key here. As all of  the bends are "blind" that is a serious handicap. The overhead gear suggestions help but they don't tell you everything and I found the verbal pace notes too distracting, so I guess that I will have to do it the hard way and put in another 100 laps??

Very little practice for the race and it showed , I had got familiar with the first few of miles and most parts up to about half way . the problem was having to start from the pits each time  I crashed out , the further you got the longer it took to get back to the crash point for another go .

Could have really done with something like " Ringtrainer " app to break this monster up into sections for training purposes .

Great track though and though challenging was easy to drive with plenty straights to have a breather .

Grats to the podium boys
