Is this a new 250 download or shouldn't I use the $1 version? (was having problems with the 250 at the bayfront..)

Thx for reminding me Alex. For me, the issues you and others suffered mean its not worth the risk and I'll remove 250 option. It will be available as you can't differentiate between 250 and 275 on server but this is a 275 race only . I found the 275 far more fun around here anyways

Oooo....19:00 start, hope my screen doesn't go into save mode track seems well lit so it shouldn't do, but if it does ill pull off track and click back to desktop, should only have to do it once in a 40 minute race (touch wood). Ill do a full race length test and see what happens.

Would turning your headlight settings to 'full' help?

Traditionally a track where I do badly. However I've never seen this layout before, and I'm not getting a couple of corners right yet, so there's time. So far I can do 2:07's fairly consistant, and 2:06.6 is best

Wasn't there a problem with the UKGTL Ferrari 250 last season? I seem to remember the drivers being told not to use it last season.

This car is nicely suited to this track, you can really stretch its legs although its a little understeery in the quicker corners, so a little more tweaking is probably needed to make it turn in a bit better.
Best time so far offline is a 2.04.1.

Work permitting, I'll certainly try to make the show this time. As a part-time, on-call delivery driver, my fate is always up in the air.
Also, come March 19, I'm commited to run Mogget's S4 series over at Gamer's. Sry.

Tried several laps tonight & got down to 2.04.5. What was really annoying was the lap I was 0.8 up on that & had a big gravelly moment into the stadium & still did 2.04.9. Other laps seem really good & are over 2.05. difficult to judge how quick a lap is here.
The cut track on the inside of T1 keeps catching me out. Did a race on Hockenheim Short last week & could take quite a bit of kerb there, seems like the cut track on the GP track is not so generous.
