PC is off "back to base" to get sorted out. Can not believe it took me this long to ring them to rant down the phone.

Just waiting for a date from the courier now, but I guess I will be out of action for the next couple of races.

Just send me the race files and I'll update accordingly - guess I will concentrate on winning just the two special stages and the Race series now then wink

Easy to learn, fast track. Similar in style to Goodwood.

Hi all,

I've been watching this thread for a while but havent been available for the previous two weeks. I did practice on Pembrey and put in consistent 53.xx laps. I have just had a go at Donnington and after a very quick practice (10 laps) I managed a 1:31, is that any good in the lambos?

Also, would I be welcome along for the next race?

Thanks in advance.

Cheers
Tom
I'll PM you the details, see you next week with a bit of luck

Woo hoo, got my PC back yesterday - new CPU.

Managed a 1'31 last night hehe. Still don't like the cars though - far too twitchy for my liking.

See you Sunday

Server is set up on the short track, is this right? Anyone coming on for a game?
Just cycle through the tracks - it should include both versions.

Results updated :

An enjoyable return to racing, although I thought we had finished when I went past the line with time at 0 - a shortcut later and I had a stop / go. I had enough of a lead over dobbo to still keep my place but my pit-box was passed the start finish line so that demoted me and promoted dobbo to 5th place frown

Roll on next week

Will not be around this weekend, CPU has gone haywire again and is off for repair - Motherboard, Ram, HDD - who know's I just need it to run for more than ten minutes without crashing !!

If someone can send me the files again, I'll update the race results.

Second race in these cars and I still hate them, either my set-up is awful (which perhaps it is ) or these cars do not suit my style of driving, either way I’m st in them.....

Best I could manage was a 1'13, but this was more the fact that on every lap I would be wrestling the car at low speed to keep it pointing in the direction I wanted it to go.

The usual race incidents were a blessing to me and I moved up the order from last to 5th, kept it fairly clean, went for one or two excursions, and finished up in 6th.

Roll on the Special Stage and phase two of the championship !

Results updated with the last two races - lost my FTP software, then the login details.

Could I suggest something.

Although Crystal Palace is a nice little circuit it's very tight and short, I wonder if we could run a touring car track in it's place. And with the release of the Birmingham Superprix circuit I wondered if it could be run instead of CP? It would be good with the RACE cars. yes We could pretend we were on RS500 Sierras biggrin

I quit after loosing the back end again..... I really can't get to grips with these cars and will sit out the rest of the 1st series and join you again for the special stage and the RACE series.

If someone can email me the results files, I'll keep updating the web page.

Cheers
