Yes, these cars are much better to drive. Looking forward to it.

Sorry gt wont be there tonight, just haven't had time to turn a wheel even since just checking it worked at the weekend - half a lap with offs.

Well I enjoyed the practice session and part of the qually session and then lost connection. Game wouldnt let me rejoin. Shame as I was looking forward to this one.

I left before the first race finished as I was easily too slow to compete and it was a bit pointless continuing. I like the cars alot but if I'm sooo of the pace I don't think I'll be bothering.
Have fun guys

[Mark J]

c'mon Tony, no need to give in so easy !  Just get some more practise in and the times will come.

I thought that was great fun, these cars are excellent to drive hard and give me the feeling from many kart events ive done in the past with the ffb giving decent feedback through the steering and making my arms ache! 
Had some great battles, especially with Mcfids once again  stupidly outbraked myself at the end of hanger straight twice in the race so ended up 7th, but enjoyed it all the same.
Couldnt make race 2 unfortunately as was on a promise  and you dont leave Italian women waiting

1st race was fun, but I was locking fronts, so set the bias from 61 to 60 for second race, adn was all over the track under braking
I like these cars, but it is becoming to much like masochism, I set the bias to 60 and reduce the brake amount to 90% or whatever
the lowesrt is, and I can't "race" because I am having to manage the braking at every corner, left 2nd race in frustration
May not bother with any more of these cat events.

Any ideas on why it's not showing up our team names?

I can understand the Legend boys wanting to hide their allegiance, but everyone else

I almost didn't race, there is something seriously messed up with the way my system was working. Race07 seems to have a dead spot in the steering input around straight ahead, but it's lopsided. If I go to Controller settings and watch the white bar move as I steer there is a pronounced dead zone, but I have to move the wheel more to the right from center before the bar moves.

While practising I found I could detect it in the lower powered cats we ran last season but it is less noticeable. But it's dire with this car. It really doesn't feel like driving at all around the straight ahead area.

Could I ask for someone to post both their Logitech Profiler settings and in game settings as I couldn't find a magic combination that made the steering remotely believable.

Hm, the darn thing shows all my files there. Pick your pick.

Yes, the downfall of THE Legends Racing Team could be paralelled to the disintegration of the Roman Empire. Or British.

Hmm...had a lot of trouble importing these results last night. Our site was taking ages to load and would usually time out with an error message. Other sites were ok so I'm sure it wasn't a generally sleepy connection or anything my end. After several attempts to import and generate standings, this is how they appeared 

[Mcfids]

Some great racing last night although real life kept distracting me throughout culminating with the Tesco shopping turning up during lap 3 of the 2nd race (certainly not as fun as MJs excuse...).

First race was a great scrap with MJ and Picnic but the handling really dropped off in the latter stages - not sure if my tyres were shot or I had damaged the car.

The second race was even more frenetic with a great battle with Ade - we were inches apart at times - and made it up to 4th from 11th until I had to take enforced retirement.

Congrats to podiums.

Was reserving judgement until I had chance to try it offline properly.
I joined late having only just installed the game so was on all the wrong settings!
Worst being 900 deg rotation of the wheel. Adjusted it to 360 and tried it again.... a lot better!
Not convinced yet, although I can see why you like the car!
Gonna do a few offline races to get up to speed, am still way off pace

[spanner]

Have you lost your way Martin? iR is over there....

Never thought i'd see the day Martin, i know its cold but has hell frozen over then!
