[Mr Fox]

Post away some times and cars you maybe going to use, also a good place to ask for setups for this weeks race.

Hi Guys is there a set up for the Mustang that might work for me, atm I'm finding it like driving on ice. I've got a heavy right thumb.

Just purchased the G25 have started building a simulator hope to have it all finished for the new series.

Great news Dave'o, with the G25 and a sim frame thingy bobby, you will clean up!

So everyone, if I am doing 1:26s at Hidden Valley at present, how far behind will be a the end of 18 laps?

Flattop I really don't think you've got much to worry about, as much as i enjoy using the wheel i'm still not getting to 1.26s.

[Mr Fox]

about 36 seconds flattop.

[rpo83]

OK,

i hope to get rFactor installed tonight, when do you guys practice???

Can i join in a race part way through the season?

Hopefully if all goes well i'll see you on line, to see how this shapes up against Power & Glory, i'm expecting big things Bruce :whoo:

Steve

[Mr Fox]

[flattop]

i jumping in now for 30 mins

[rpo83]

Bloody internode :censored::censored::censored:

Have been trying to download rfactor light, i had only downloaded HistoricX not rfactor :ohwell:

Downloading at 7KB, :censored::censored: My account exceeded bandwidth last month, it started new month today, but still throttled from last night :censored:

Downloading now, hopefully it goes better from here on in

[Imperious]

That sux RPO!

As far as times go, I did a 1.22 in the Mustang
and a 1.24 in the 1310 Mini, If the tyres don't survive on the V8's
then the mini could be looking Good.

[rpo83]

Cool so i am in the ball park with a 1:22 :) I'd better get practicing.

What night is the final round of the series, and could i compete??? Cheeky i know, but this seems pretty cool, the damage model is great, i wrote my Mustang off numerous times going around Bathurst tonight, the poor thing looked very second hand when i got airborne over the last hump in conrod and speared into the wall at 230kph...

I couldn't see the server when i logged into multiplayer, is it always up??

Cheers

Steve

[Imperious]

This is a recruitment series, so YES, please do turn up.

This week is the finish of this series, with Bathurst special next week and a GTC-65 race before next season starts, likely about a month from now.

Best to search by Track name to find it, I don't think it is always up.

[rpo83]

Thanks Imperious,

When is the final round???? What date and time?

Steve

[Imperious]

Wednesday night 10/9 8:30 Quali, Roughly 9pm Race start.

[Sulio]

Jeez...best time I could do to date is 1.27.5, I'd be happy just to get into a race finally. Looking forward to Wed night

Sulio

[rpo83]

Damn you Flattop....

1:30 am and i'm still driving around, how am i supposed to get any work done today!!

This ROCKS!, done a few messy laps of Bathurst, downloaded some tracks and did a PB of 1:20.7 around hidden valley..

Now i've got to get some sleep.

Thanks FT, i may get Humper to come and join us as well.

Steve

[Mr Fox]

server is up 24/7 :)

[Sprinterboy]

I was going to have a go in the mini, But it turns out I'm working that night and the same again next week. So no bathurst for me either. Decided to put in some time in the 911RS at Nurburg for the new series.

HAHAHAHA I knew you would be hooked, it REALLY is a great mod/sim.
I hope some more of the P&G come too, both groups will survive and they are soo compatible. (But I do lean to the HistorX, and as P&G is fortnightly, I can have the best of both. I am not adverse to having some tracks the same for both P&G and HistorX to allow for more fun and lessen the learning curve. Snetterton is up in Season II here)
Say "hola" to Humper, hope he can join too...

See you as you lap me at Hidden Valley.

Bad luck Sprinterboy, but the practice will put you in good stead for next season...

[Sprinterboy]

Getting to grips with the Joystick/Keyboard combo I have is the biggest task, played around a bit at work on Sco_aus laptop, he can get the stang at hidden valley down to a 1.22 but its all over the shop and very touchy. I had a go with the mini just then with my joystick. consistant 1.25's will bee a good race. Shame :(

As for nurburg, with keys, a 1.47 is the lowest so far with room for improvment. :D

I was just having a peak at our racing schedule that will take us right up until christmas, it looks good :) Bathurst & Lemans will run inbetween S1 & 2. TC's at Bathurst or Lemans 76'ers. I'm hanging out for both.....

[Mr Fox]

did some flat 22's before not far from high 21's i hope

help is not a problem :)

[rpo83]

I had the same problem, the track isn't called "Hidden Valley" in the track list:noidea: i amended my ini file as Glenn has pointed out then i found the server by looking for server name.

Sorry i forget what the track is called, i think it had to do with a casino :frusty:
