I am unable to generate standings because it doesn't know John_W
I have tried to make him a guest, but am failing. If   John would make himself a member then it should work
otherwise anyone else know how to work around it?

I've never done a race this long before, so I was surprised to make it to the finish line. I even had some fun along the way  .

Happy new year to you all.

I've made him a guest till he annouces himself or someone else does for him...

But it's generating some other error now , you want to try again now Matt, I'm trying something else now....

Results Posted above now too

p.s. Managed to work out who John_W was... He tried to throw us off the scent, having cunningly dropped the "_" from his driving name. But you've got to get up pretty early in the morning to sneak something like that past us

[phspok]

Thanks Chris. I couldn't see how to make John a guest, it was complaining about Mark as well , but I fixed that (I thought)

[Legzy]

Great race that, think MJ should be gutted he missed it!


Everything aches a bit now, but definitely worth it

Cheers Tony & sorry you missed it too.

I think that the "_" disappeared as part of the attempts to get Mike into the server.  (Keep your mits off Legzy!  He is SBRC if ever I saw one!)

Tony asked that I do a brief race report and I think that I will be announcing a win for Team Black, despite my attempts to drag them down.  I'm just not clear on the points system to be used.

The normal approach in these events is to have an even one point per place and I have calculated the results on that basis but could do with confirmation that I have it right before I publish.

PS  Have a look at John's race history.  It's "digital", all noughts and ones.

I always hated the IROC, but in this track it's even more detestable. I didn't find the way for a good setup, and it was a needful thing to drive this car on this circuit.
However it was surely not my best night, and I'm beginning to have enough about P&G 2.1... I have to thank Ian that has shortened my suffering sending me into the barrier  . I was really struggling to keep that car on the track, and it wasn't fun at all.
Grats to John for the victory. Grats to the pody, and to all the drivers passed under the checkered flag.


I spoke with Aris 10 days ago, but he didn't say nothing about the release of v3, so my hopes for the xmas were equal to 0 .
I guess they're doing a lot of tests for the new 3d models, cause the new physics and tyres, from what I know are ready by months!
I just hope that the people will be patient, and once again, I assure you that your patience will be rewarded with a great work!
Let's hope in a short wait!


I wish to all Simracing.org and especially to the UKP&G guys a HAPPY NEW YEAR
Cu in 2011

Thanks phspok and thanks for Tony and everybody involved in organising this one. A highlight of the year for me event wise. Excellent Fun.

Happy new year to you all. Hope I will get time to join in one or two races next year depending on commitments with the MARA league.

PS  Have a look at John's race history.  It's "digital", all noughts and ones. 

He has been a regular over at NG for some time, & his race history wouldn't be much different there either. Fully paid up 

[FullMetalGasket]

Boo! Where's team woolly woofter!? 

I had a great race, I'm still not sure what happened between my first stop and those of Mike and John as I seemed to loose loads of time there.
I actually thought in the race that maybe they managed to somehow stretch to a single stop, but the lap graph seems to say they also did a 2 stop stratedgy.
Shame I dropped back though as it could have been a cracking 3 way battle to the flag otherwise - We all seemed to have different strong points as the fuel/tyres degraded between pitstops that seemed to keep us all on our toes 

Excellent race and I must admit I'd like to see more endurance events like it, but realise that wouldn't be popular in a regular series 
Howabout a 2hr Enduro, same cars and rules but at the GTR Evo version* of the Ring next then? 


*I.e. the correct one

[Clive Loynes]

Ooops! Sorry Tim.

Team Woolly Woofter now added.

I must have got cross threaded going between the spreadsheet and the post.
