Race Department races

[goldtop]

No practice and a meeting with a few friends down the pub on the way home from work didn't make me any quicker. As a result was over cautious and got rear ended a couple of times early in race 1 then got stranded on the kerb a couple of laps short of the finish. Race 2 was better with some nice chases.

No problems with stutter for me MJ, but I do generally keep my settings on the low side.

I do like this mod, but I also like the GTR2 version at least as much. Just seems to be more feel/control on the edge with the GTR2 vers. but I'd be hard pushed to choose between them.

interesting that no one else had fps issues. Wonder if i boogered my install with some of the telemtry/XD add-ons. Will have to test some other tracks as first time ive encounted poor frames with Evo/race.

Yeah, sorry for quitting out of race 2. I had no intention of doing a second race as had already been glued to the pc for hour and half just for one race, but the action was so good i got enticed into it. Was loving the 2nd race until i got an oversteer tail slapper out of  a slow corner and decided that would do me for the night, but the action was brilliant throughout. Shame we couldnt run a supercup league here as it makes for a great one make series.

An opportunity to try out my newly acquired Race On and STCC package.......

Jyllandsringen is a very tight and twisty track with some nice camber changes which should suit these cars. I've been building up my Brownie points, so I'm hoping to sneak away for an hour to do this Sunday morning.

[Mark J]

jeesh...more touring car action  very popular though, already 21 drivers signed up !  Think i'll save my brownie points for the 2hr LM race sunday evening!

ooh yeah that does look good    think i am free that night too 

[Legzy]

Nothing else to do here on a Tuesday night... think I might well sign up for that

Will I be able to do it with my Evolution disc?

[Truetom]

AFAIK this will be GT1 mod, so I don't see any problems here, Legy. I sent a pm to Hugo how to enlist as the thread is closed. Says he's still working on it - whatever he means by that. Gotta keep an eye on this.

[Legzy]

AFAIK this will be GT1 mod,

Happen to know where I can download that from?

[Truetom]

It's not set yet, nothing to download.

[spanner]

Being that they quote the class as GT pro which is a standard class in game i'd imagine it uses the standard cars.

[Mark J]

yeah i read it as using the standard GT Pro class that comes with Evo as stock, so we should all be good to go. How about planning an online praccy sesh before the event? Though no idea how or who would host   (or do they have a praccy server set up?)

You'll need Race On for this one MJ. May as well grab STCC in a bundle from Steam while you're at it
