Fun Race - 9pm Friday 6th May 2005 - Brno

[Simon Gymer]

Utilising the new UKGTR server that we are trialling, there will be a fun race tonight. See details below...

Track: Brno
Cars: Free car choice
Weather: Dry
Race Distance: 18% (32 mins)
Server Name: UKGTR (will be broadcast in the lobby)
Time: Qual2 - 9pm, Race - 9:30pm (approx)
Rules: General rules are the same as for any race, e.g no speeding in the pit lane, please familiarise yourself with the rules from the website if you haven't already. Start procedure will still standing start followed by 1 pace lap led at moderate pace by the pole sitter as per normal rules.
Sessions: Are set to non time scaled, so orderly voting is required to move between sessions.

** IMPORTANT NOTES: **
1) The server is in german so don't worry if there are messages you don't understand. I am trying to get this resolved, but no gaurantees atm.
2) The server is up broadcast in the lobby all the time so feel free to join at any time. Please note as part of the testing, outside fun race hours we may need to restart the server to change configuration or update the game in some way. We will try to keep this to a minimum. The password and server name will not change throughout the 3 days unless stated otherwise.
3) This is a trial so if you experience anything wrong, e.g. high pings, can't connect, can't see game in lobby etc, please post in the forums. Try to refrain from using in game chat for reporting this as with large numbers of players this becomes difficult and we would like a record of the problems found. The server will be available for 3 days so don't dispair if you can't connect or join in tonight.
4) During the fun race times, please watch out for messages from one of the admin team. We may be providing instructions during the sessions.

Finally, have fun, drive carefully and be courteous. Gentlemen START YOUR ENGINES!

Replay here (from my client, but seems perfect)...

Thx.

Usually client replays are pretty laggy when watching other drivers, so it's a good sign the server was working well.

[Dave 'Gizmo' Gymer]

Thanks to everyone who turned up. 

Hopefully we can get a full field for the weekend races.

[Simon Gymer]

The next races will have full server exports and replays which I will make available as and when they occur.
(oh and i've now got the game language changed to english)

I had not read this thread when I made this post:

Thanks Shark for organising the exports.

Now, about my other suggestions...
