Moderator's Report

Well, the South African gremlins certainly got their fingers into a lot of essential equipment at Kyalami! and despite several DNF's there have been no reports submitted. I assume therefore that everyone was content that there was no foul play, which makes my highly stressful job as moderator, moderately more straightforward.

Congratulations to Will Tway, Jack o'Farrell, Rob Burton and Phil Thornton for fighting off any stray gremlins and making it to the end.

Hristo, Lorenzo and Iestyn had a close battle for the pole position and front of grid slots and big thanks to those mere mortals, like me, who at least added numbers to what would have been a very small grid in Div 1.
At the start there was some close quarter antics through T1 and unfortunately Lorenzo found himself on the outside approaching T2 and one touch meant the end of his race..Gremlin 1
Hristo proceeded to take himself into the distance and Iestyn picked up a very quick pace in the first few laps. A lonely Cooper plodded along in 3rd spot, until the driver woke up and realised that the BRM in front was not getting much smaller.
The application of a little effort actually made the BRM slightly larger and the gap was closed.
Meanwhile further down the field interesting battles were developing and Will Tway in his Brabham was getting into his stride.
Hristo (name check 3) was stroking the Honda into a commanding lead when Iestyn decided that he needed an Ice cream at the hairpin to cool his overheated engine (Gremlin 2)and took to the grass.
The lonely Cooper was lonely again.
A few laps later Hristo ( name check 4) discovered the whereabouts of gremlin 3 as it scattered bits of Honda engine across the track.
The lonely Cooper was now alone in first place.
Will Tway meanwhile had eased his way into what was now second spot and was trying to get closer and more friendly with the Cooper.
The Pit stops muddied the issue for a while, and Will's Brabham took the lead until he pulled in for his stop.
The lonely Cooper retook the lead only for gremlin 4 to insert something soft and squidgy into the cylinders and cause yet another retirement........gremlins 4 : Div 1 drivers 0.

This left Will with a commanding lead which he held to the end and podium spots for the steady and consistent drives from the middle order of the grid.
Note from the stewards............
The paddock at the next race will be sprayed with gremlin suppressant chemicals before racing begins.

The Pitwall is the standard wall that comes with gpl. Most updated mods of tracks have removed the pitwall, If people are seem to be over the yellow line or the wall, you would get DQ in league races. For someone seeing not a wall there and someone is, they are seen with like half a car stuck in pitwall travelling down the straight.

If this helps.

Personally I have only ever run the standard papy track so can't confirm that it works although I think the old thread says that it worked for Bernie.


They were both much younger then of course!  Grin

Yes, you will probably have a pit hedge unless you change that file too!!

Mmmmmmkay. But as long as I stay well to the correct side of the lines depending on whether I am pitting or not then I won't be penalised? I find GPL to be a very delicate installation on my PC and if it's all working I really ike to avoid fiddling with it unless absolutely necessary.

Your risk, but the instructions given will in no way jeopordise your gpl installation. Mind Clive does say remove or delete whereas it might have been better to say backup these files to another location so you can replace them later.

It's the start rather than your pitstop that is the most likely time you'll infringe the wall area. It's easy in the heat of the moment when concentrating on avoiding all the other cars on the grid to drift over to where the wall would normally be located.

Thanks Clive and Ken for the advice. I moved those files and the armco is back.

Might drop in for some Kya - but I might be racing around Daytona at last with EOLC.

Server troubles last week prevented the Daytona race from fully happening! Angry

Actually I'd say that pitting without pit wall is when you'd most likely run over it because with the pit wall the pit lane entry is very narrow and it's important to slow down enough - something which I doubt you'd do if you don't see the wall even if you see the line on the tarmac. I use the original papy track anyway so I'm not so sure how it looks without a pit wall, but those are my guesses.

BTW, the link to the current championship standings is wrong, it sends you to season 15 standings.

What an odd race, lol! First Lorenzo falls victim to a blindspot position before T2, then Sam's "valve" expires, then Iestyn's "header", then my own "clutch"! Makes you conclude that GPL has a rather complex damage system implemented though a clutch failure to produce such a flaming explosion seems rather odd to me.  Cheesy The end result all the same though.  Roll Eyes

Update: Clive retires with a broken "piston". The list keeps building up. In that relation I should mention it'd be rather practical if GPL simply states "honda" as reason for retiring it.  Grin

Update 2: As Clive reminds me there are still two possible reasons for retirement based on internal damage - camshaft and engine (?). 2 or 3 people still running atm, so who is going to be the lucky one for GPL to ignore by simply running out of retirement options to assign!  Shocked

Hmm, not a happy bunny atm! I never take people out  Angry

Sorry Lorenzo, I didn't realise you were right behind Hristo after a fast T1, and pulled in for T2. By the time I saw your wheel on the left and turned right, I'd already bumped you which was enough to send you to the barrier Undecided. I didn't realise I took T1 so slow at the time, that you and Clive had pulled right up behind us after there was a small gap going down the straight to T1.  Embarrassed

Also, I forgot to try 49% BB, and ended up wide at T1 every lap, before the BRM's header had enough of my abuse and abruptly left the ship on lap 10. Grrr! And doing a PB time twice in qually, 1:20.01... I want a 19 already!! At least someone somewhere is the WDC today...

My debut race in Division 1 was one to forget. After a poor quali I made a good start and gained a few places before approaching Sunset. Sadly the engine had other ideas and decided to blow up in spectacular style. I guess i'll have to have more mechanical sympathy for Monaco.
