Cool, I won't have to learn both a new car & a new circuit for this weeks race (as I had a couple of practice go's at the Hatch a couple of months back).

This will be my first race in GTL if all goes to plan. Hope to race with you all in our Porsches anyone got a idea of a good lap time? Cool, I won't have to learn both a new car & a new circuit for this weeks race (as I had a couple of practice go's at the Hatch a couple of months back). I will be learning the car and the sim track.but i have raced brands hatch in a real saloon car this may help

Er, I just tried knocking out a couple of laps in the 911 at lunch time... I think mine is broken?! I turn my steering wheel & nothing happens at the front end . The only thing that happens is the backend appears to get impatient to overtake the rest of the car, very quickly. Do I need to send it back to my local Porka garage or is this a standerd feature on the 911?

That sounds like a 911. At least that's what always happens to me when I'm driving one.

Welcome aboard Jimmer Might be my imagination, or wishfull thinking, but I have an easier time getting the slightly lighter/less powerful one to turn in. Mind you its my first race in these porkas so which one is best around here? Think I'll be around the 1.41/42 mark in the lighter one. At least we are all stuck in the same boat/911 .

Welcome to the club , Jimmer ............. and good luck on your first race. Mind you its my first race in these porkas so which one is best around here? Think I'll be around the 1.41/42 mark in the lighter one. At least we are all stuck in the same boat/911 . Are there 2 differnent versions of this magnificent car ? Did some laps and managed a 1.42 but i haven't noticed that there is a lighter/ heavier version.

There's a lighter weight version (the one without the whale tail). I find that the difference around Brands is negligible. On principle though I always take the lighter version, which is much better at some other tracks.

So do we think we might be in danger of this race not taking place with the current lobby problems?

I can't connect to the server in my #23 Drake Racing porsche. After loading the track, I get a message car not on server. I can connect with a stock Porsche.
