Intermittent checksums seems totally weird. I assume it just checks certain things like the surfaces.ini for car and track, so it should either work or not work. Are there any custom skins installed for the Cobra? Anything in the AC logs that point to what's causing the checksum?

Looking forward to the Cobra tonight but haven't driven it since the last race, and I don't know the track. No doubt I'll just get to grips with it on the last lap of the second race  ;D

After the Caterham, I keep forgetting how much of a handful the Cobra is.  I am having shoulder troubles!  haha, but will just have to drive slower, if possible. :)

thanks for the info rooshooter and Joe, I too am getting some checksum on some occasions.
I have stripped out the 'skinned cars' from the list and they are all default cars!
As Joes, says, it should be correct or wrong!  When time permits, I will test a new install of the server, but in the mean time, sorry to say, we will all have to reconnect the second time, (normally successful).
Once in of course all is okay GRRRR

Howdy Cal, yep just the 2 nights.  Serious racing Tuesday, with super professional management, more relaxed runs on Thursdays.

and Cal, also add there are servers run by "our marty" that often have good fields with good conduct, they are well policed for idiots.
I and others are in the habit of filtering by "XGN marty" on the online browser screen.

If Thursdays are possible, we have good field each week get this Caterham mod.

The Cobra 427/SC is default install.

Most mod tracks are linked here.

I'm probably more likely to have a run on a Thursday night to be honest. I've been driving AC for the past month or so, but not ventured online with it yet. Can't seem to see a calendar. Is it every 2nd Thurs night?

Good news Cal, I will get to watch you disappear into the distance again :)
We had mixed thoughts about cars to run, trying to keep the Cobra Theme running, but also introducing new mods as they became available.
We started with the Mazda MX-5 mod, which was okay in the first release, but disappointing in the next iteration, and along came the Caterham that is FANTASTIC.   So the remaining of the year has 2 seasons, alternating, every Thursday, (expect the odd "bye", as this week is), between the Season 6 Cobras and Season 7 Caterham. 
I have added links in responses above ^^^ for the Caterham and the announcement page has the link for the track.
anything else keep asking.
Our old password still applies, if used.
