From now on all posts must be in code as our extensive and ever alert security officers have detected a possible mole!! Although we have found no direct evidence that GPfun have breached our outer defenses, there are some unexplained piles of earth on the outside of many corners in GPL, especially at Albi. Therefore, Arnold and Mabel Glutbucket will be making routine body searches of anyone found around here after dark...YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED! *runs and hides*

Thanks,
Will

I'd like to make our chassis allocations as soon as we have nine drivers, but we need more volunteers at this stage,
If you are short of drivers we can probably lend you some of ours, if you want. It would be less of an inter-league battle... but might be more fun Let me know if I have to ask our drivers about this. Bye, Luca

We should be OK for drivers, but it's the lack of people putting their names forward that's a hindrance at this stage!!

The server
GPFUN.NET
is active with the race settings; the only difference is that it is set to "pro short" right now, eg a shorter distance than next sunday. Please test it before sunday to make sure that everything works for you (it requires the bandwidth patch).
It is set on a fast connection; please let us know if anyone plans to race with a 56kbs modem, in which case we will lower the server requirements.
Bye, Luca
PS: please note that there is also a gpfun67 server, cycling through different tracks. We will disable it next sunday to avoid confusion.

Since I can't have a Lotus, a Honda would be nice.

I can play if you need more bodies, stick me in anything but a Honda....could even manage the Bellowing Brute...(BRM). I've had my fill of Zandy for now. Raced against a few of these guys already...Fabio Locarno, Fulvio Policardi and a few other names that are familiar.....should be fun. Geoff.

If you're still in the need of drivers I'll put my name forward for this Sunday. Too much iRacing is my problem I've sorta fallen off the GPL topics

As the rules are that fast guys take fast cars on this one, instead of the usual slightly reverse of that, do we have any idea what the allocations will be? At least a probable choice of 2 or 3 would help just to get meaningful some practice in as I would normally opt for the Honda here but Phil has his name being stencilled on that beast already lol.

That's what we are doing (roughly) so if you follow the same general idea we should get a balanced race. For your information, this should be our drivers lineup. You can cross most names with the results in my previous post to have an idea of the performance. I am indicating a likely qualifying time for a few drivers Graci BRM Errera Lot Minotto Lot below 27.0 Lonzar Coo 30.0 Grappolo Eag Policardi Hon Melli Fer 27.3 Marchetti Bra Uscidda Fer

Okay- Lotus Clive L and Lorenzo, Eagle Clive, Ferrari Hristo and Will, Brabham John, Honda Glyn, BRM Phil, Cooper Tim. Sorry Phil, but we haven't got another driver more likely to finish with the BRM- it's not hopeless at Monza though. Jethro's going to act as reserve, and also menace the Clubmans race at Zandvoort, for more race practice..
I was on GPFun.net with Jethro last night, it was very stable, unlike my driving since I was able to wedge a BRM behind the armco at the Lesmos, to much mirth. However if anyone has problems with lag Luca has offered to alter the server settings. There were a few GPFun drivers on and I'd recommend that we get a few practice starts with their drivers in before the race. GPFun are used to rolling starts with no passing for the first corners. Perhaps we might have a closed session if enough drivers turn up?
