Yes folks there is a race tonight.
I was particularly looking forward to this round, but again I'll be on scout duty at race time. Have fun.

I was going to join in tonight, but my game has still not been updated in steam (I'm on version 1.2.1.4). I've tried a few ways to update it with no success. Any ideas?

what does it do?
The games loads as normal. Which is an improvement on last week . When I try to join the online session it says "incompatible game version". I'm running version 1.2.1.4, I think the current version is 1.2.1.5. I'm not able to force steam to update it.

Excellent fun, dicing up and down the order. Well, up to the point when tyre wear went up towards 30. Tyres are too soft, do we have any mod that fixes it?

Having to drive a slow plodding touring car around the Silverstone National circuit didn't sound like the most exciting thing to do last night..... but I have to say it threw up some brilliant racing ...I especially enjoyed all the side by side action I could of really done with having a spotter though...I didn't know where anyone was Maybe I've been wrong about the Touring Cars after all, they do seem to be perfect for a quick pick-up-and-play 20min race in the week. It's a shame not more people give it a go...you never know, you might like it

It's a shame not more people give it a go...you never know, you might like it Like I've been saying all along then Unfortunately the final rounds are in a couple of weeks after which I won't be organising any more of these. However, I do have another little project on the go which I'm getting really excited about. I hope to let you know about this soon if it all works out to plan.

Yep that was great fun last night, like Lazlow said its a good pick up and drive.
I thought this track suited these cars perfectly.
Shame others didnt try it.
