Hmmm - wonder who that sideways Waza was.
As I see it, this situation was extreme for all of us in the last lap! And Paul was the poor rabbit chasen by all biting dogs arround. For me no incident!!! Cheers

If you don't get distracted with Pribluda all the time, you'd be much more aware of who's where on the track around you...
I am an old man but not yet dement! I allways know who is arround me and I am not distracted with Pribluda all the time. It helps to know if Hristo is coming, far before he is there And I consist that some various Porsche skins would help! And if it happens that Pribluda drops me for a couple of seconds and shows someone else behind you, how is that of help? Or if it shows me at a wrong distance/gap, like it also happens sometimes. I never blamed you for bad driving due to Pribluda, but I was saying it for everyone, not just you, because some just rely on it too much and forget to use other feedback sources more efficiently.

Wery bad race for me... i forgot to load my setup to race and i ended up with default setup - not enough fuel for the race and awfully low steering ratio... amazingly i managed to make my way through the first 2 laps,but then i wrap-rearended someone at the hairpin (i didnt feel anything, but he went offtrack, sorry) and after that i just quit... Too bad it wont teach me to load this damn setup...happened 3 times aready.

More skins eh? I already made an all blue and an all orange version, which other colors should I pick? All Porsches that race now have liveries used during the 1967 endurance season, although they only changed the nose colors for each race. Perhaps it something to bring up during the off season, certainly changing the colors on the car doesn't take me much time . It seems like more people unfortunately experienced hindrance from backmarkers. I'd even go as far as saying the way backmarkers got out of the way yesterday was below the usual high standards of UKGPL, unfortunately. Last night was the second time in two races a backmarker got in my way, so I hope this is not becoming a problem. Thankfully the Solitude is a big track so we won't have to worry about backmarkers too much over there . Tommie.

OK, I installed back the pit wall and it became apparent I was confused by the yellow line that marks the pit exit, which I thought was exactly beneath the pit wall armco. At the start, I passed just near that yellow line, thinking it's the actual pit wall, but in reality the pit wall extends further to the left, so I really crossed it - my apologies. Anyway, it was a very good race with Tom until it was compromised later on in the race. From there on it was a lonely run, but not for long. I had one particular hair raising moment which nobody was responsible for really, but I suggest you watch it for your own entertainment - it unfolds at 45m24s into the race on the server replay. Baldassarri was stationary at T1 after a spin and Stemmler had slowed down in caution, so I just managed to go between both of them as we entered the corner - the view from Baldassarri's in-car camera is frightening! Grats to Bot (!) for probably getting the win after I probably get DQ.

Sorry Tommie Hope I wasn't one of the bad guys There shouldn't be any pressure on you But my idea is that these colors can be seen in online races by all others. Then if I could have a whish: why not national colors, like the british racing green, orange for you and red, for whom I've forgotten, white, blue and so on cause sooner or later this series will become a kind of World Cup. I know the difficulties of getting the right colors to the right people... just dreaming! Thanx Axel PS atm I run a test on IGOR 69X with 60fpsV1

Hi Axel, I've always liked the idea of team or even personal liveries in races, indeed we even tried it in the old Interleague series. Expanding the idea has been kicked around in the past and generally didn't find favour due to the logistics involved. I don't think the logistics are insurmountable, I believe GP Fun do it, but things can get time consuming if the attendees at events are fluid. If things could be streamlined, so entering the servers with the right livery is simple and doesn't take too much time, it's something that could be considered subject to everyone being keen. The good thing with personalised liveries is, if you aren't interested, you can just ignore it and don't need to change your GPL settings. Who would paint all the cars though?

Cheers Nice of you Cookie but I don't know what I was thinking of - it was really crap. I got a real shock when you appeared in my mirrors so I was obviously a bit distracted. I should have known you were there. Very bad. What is wierd is that Tristan then comes through fast and I get off the driving line and he just shunts me really hard. Lucky we both didn't blow up. Don't feel at fault for that one though...

not a best racing for me setup was odd and was propably only who didnt use Tom's setup clone. After dropping out on early laps it was difficult to gain spots back but managed to do it to 5th, Tommies engine leaking oil to road but still havent time to catch him in the end of race.This was no my track . grats Tristan for win! i think i still got the lead in champ with 1 or 2 points before Tommie.

I can give a hand if u want or help any other guy to customize skins! In GPFun we use customized skins but there are some restrictions pertaining a precise pilot entry list for entering the server and have the correct skin assignment. My livery files are identified by entry list number 97 because the number 27 (that is drawn on my car) was already assigned in the past to another pilot. I made the Lotus 72 JPS livery for my cars in GPFun. SO I have Lotus, Eagle, Ferrari, Brabham, Cooper, Honda and BRM painted in black and gold with the trademark JPS (John Player Special). These are my Brabham, Cooper and Ferrari

Those look extremely good Sergio. Martin has also offered to help paint and Tom mentioned in the past he might pitch in. So that would cover the liveries. What is the process re joining Sergio? Guess with team liveries you can just join by team order rather then driver by driver? How long does it normally take for GP Fun? And what do you do when someone is missing? If we had to use the 'dummy car' procedure would it block off a place on the grid or can we still have 19?

what I can surely say is, it is the order each pilot enters on the server that makes possible the combination pilot/livery in fact the manager calls each pilot for the entry in winvroc chat so are not permitted free entries.

WOW now it gets interresting! My dream: It needs the help of the great makers of the 69X mod and GTmod. They managed to make 45 different cars of 69x and to assign slots for them, in GT we have 9 slots used remaining 36. Still dreaming, if there are some GTs in the pipeline there will still be a possibility for some Porsches left.. What we need to get eg the team colors are atm 12 different Porsches or 18 for 3rd server and so on The Pastit Teamies just take their red Porky or the LOL team takes the blue one... Then there would be no trouble to join or if someone is missing dreaming

If you're talking new car slots that is getting into modding territory which is beyond me
