Problems connecting to the Lobby?

- The server will then advance to Q2 where the top 6 will do a 1 lap shootout for pole. All other drivers must remain in the garage. Your grid position from the practice session will be retained.
- Since this is such a long track with quite long lap times, the top 6 will go out on track together, space themselves out, and then make a 1 lap bid for pole.
- There are no resets. If you crash, then make the most of it. Get across the line.
- The server administrator will advance to the race session once everyone has had an opportunity to qualify
Server: simracing.org.uk - P&G Password: see aboveChampionship StandingsNotes:(1) It's best if all drivers can make sure they are connected before the Qualifying session as drivers on track during qualifying will not see cars that join after they are on track until they go back to the garage. (2) Please make sure you are fully aware of the SimRacing.org.uk Rules especially the rules about in-game chat messages. (3) You will need to install Power and Glory v2 from here, 2.1 patch from here and enable terrain patch. (4) P&G has no 'Pit Speed Limiter' function. You may go as fast as you like in the pits, but please exercise caution. Penalties will be handed out for causing contact in the pit lane. Use your best judgement when making your pitstop during the race.

Thanks Tony. I wanted to find another car that would be competitive, but everything was too far off the mark.
I tried the Q1 night quali session offline. It is quite beautiful guys. You should check it out. I did so in a GT40 MkII. I don't know how these guys did the 24 hour race in real life. The speeds are simply awe inspiring and the lack of bright headlights back then must have been terrifying.

Another spec race in a Porsche...
I don't care if it's slower, please just give us something like the Ferrari 275 GTB Speciale to have a choice.

Can't wait to post my 906 through the front door of the house at Masta.
But I can't see the track on the link.

Though the 906 is very popular with most people and at the old Spa will be entertaining I am somewhat with Legzy, We've done a spec race with my least fave car now we have a spec race with my 2nd least fave, if i can get the 906 round then i will probably take it, but it would be nice to have a vegetarian non rear engined option on the menu.

Mike looks like the track we used in GTLDK Le Mans 1972 Series. For those who haven't raced here it is extremely fast with many flat in 5th curves - lose it here and it's invariably a big one.
I don't mind the 906 but I feel for those who hate it as there's little room for error here.

The Ferrari 275 isn't competitive, but I can add it for those who want a GT class. Let me do a quick test tonight. I want to make sure the engine isn't too fragile.

Hope to join to Spa - great track, great car choice.
But there is a problem:
Had to make a new install of P&G recently and now, whenever I try to join the online game I get the message "thrown out due to cheat suspicion".
Does anybody have an idea how to solve this?
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks.

You need to turn on the Terrain Patcher found under Start programs menu

Always lurrrrv the 906 and Spa 67 is such a scarey track Isn't there a suitable big American beastie to keep less sophisticated types happy?
