I currently hold the record as the slowest driver so if you find yourself at the back of the grid you'll see me there Cheers If you wait around long enough. I'm kidding. Pot, kettle and all that LOL.

Think I've finally got GPL working and would like to join you gents for the odd race if you'll let me. To be honest, if you welcome the likes of Legzy you'll have anyone, I hope

Welcome to the Novices ginsters- but you have to vote in the poll at the top before I can process your registration!
You should also select a chassis, you have to stay with the same one for the rest of the season. Any except the BT7, as its the slowest, and avoid the Ferrari as there are many Novice Ferraris already.

Hello Ginsters. A sudden influx of GTR2'ers. Has Clive said there's free cakes here or something?

And also welcome to the Novices Martin!
I've activated the registrations. You should join a 65 mod race on Igor sometime over the weekend- there's often been a ukgpl practice server up recently thanks to Mike- to test that its working, as it might be difficult to help you with any problems just prior to the race on Tuesday. The slower grid the 'Novices' starts before the faster grid, the 'Amateurs'.
I notice that Pete has joined us as well- both of you need to select a chassis before Tuesday to drive for the rest of the season, any but BT7 and Ferrari, unless you're a bona fide tifosi.

My time are certainly at the novice stage i usually prefer the Ferrari but will have to check which others i have a stable set up for . Second choice Honda.
The only thing i am good at in a 65 is the start i pass a few then when they get going i drop way back lol.

Second choice Honda. It is worth a look and it's what I use. I've found it a good car to learn in. If you need a setup for Rouen on Tuesday I have one that will do a 2:08 even in my hands and less in somebody else's. The only thing i am good at in a 65 is the start i pass a few then when they get going i drop way back lol. . Which is a shame because racing online you need to be considerate and careful at the start due to lag or the whole grid ends up in one big lump at T1.

If I'm remembering correctly the cars in the '65 mod can be put into 3 groups: Fastest = Ferrari (1)512 and Lotus 33 Mid ~ Honda, Brab BT11 and BRM Slowest = Brabham BT7 and Cooper T77 I think I missed one Whatever it is it lives in the middle group

A sudden influx of GTR2'ers. Has Clive said there's free cakes here or something? All I needed was a sausage roll and pasty Should be a good fight between us GTRers at the back, if we manage to stay on. Also nice to see Poacher taking part. I bagsy the BRM if thats ok.

Blimey!! at this rate of recruitment we will need 3 servers!!! just for the 65 races. Welcome to all the new guys from GTR etc. Good to see you moving up to a "proper" racing sim. By the way, pasties and sausage rolls are only on offer to podium places acheived in the BT7 or Cooper!!! and must be collected from ( or wrenched from his grasp!!) Bernie the chief steward, if they have not been consumed before the end of the race!!
