Hmm the scoreboard doesn't show my DNF on event 2 (over a snow bank like some of the others!)

As above, the spreadsheet is showing the majority with assists switched on, including Speckle who just implied he doesn't race with them either smile
I think the ABS is set to 1, everything else is off (clearly or else I'd manage to keep it on the track!!) thumbup

Is anyone else planning to get Assetto Corsa when it's released on console in August?

I considered the Stratos - heart said Stratos, head said 131.

I chickened out and went with my head!

I was having trouble tonight - The game told me I hadn't registered on Racenet for a while...

Eventually got there in the end and finished the event off, I was 10.500 seconds behind respectisearned after the penultimate stage so tried a little too hard on the last stage and ended up 10.467 seconds behind and 33.016 behind JamesRF.

Good fun.

ETA: Added myself to the wiki, but don't have access to update the Google Doc.

I'm having no joy. If I go to leagues, pistonheadsxbox is shown. However, if I click on it nothing happens. Is it just racenet, or me being useless?

A new league has been set up for xbox, search for pistonheadsxbox1 and you should be ok

Well, that went well. Spun near start of stage 2, tried to reverse out of it and went off the edge.

That second icy stage in a Stratos is hilarious, a real lesson in driving within yourself. Good fun though, and love the sound of it.

Fail. Went off on the third corner of the next stage. Terminal damage. Looks like I was too late and the event ended anyway!

So yesterday I set about doing the final 6 stages at Monte Carlo on the monthly event which would finally earn me the platinum.

All was going great as I'd been setting a medium pace to make sure I just completed it this month.

Stage 24 of 24 and after nearly 2 hours of rally the end is in sight. Approximately 45 seconds from the finish the Mrs burts through the door to show me her new shoes.....

Cue brief loss of concentration turning into a 4 left which was really a 2 left resulting in a ridiculously slow motion roll over a wall.

I really hope she enjoys those fking shoes.
