Hello, Im Aiman Haziq from Malaysia :)  always wanted to find a good AC league and server which have good ping for me :)
Hope to have enjoyable race with you all :D

GUID: 76561198142600641

Hi Aiman. Welcome. It would be good to jump onto the server with you some time and see how the pings are.

Howdy Aiman, I have put you on the entry on the "AUS XGN.com.au THURS Cobra Cup SUZUKA Backup" server
connect and check your ping, hopefully all is okay.

Thanks :) seems to get constant 140ms ping.

Best do the right thing and give you my intro... after infiltrating XGN for the upcoming ARSE vs XGN AC event.
Some of you will know me as Flinty72 which is what I used in LFS & is also my STEAM / AC Username.
So yes I'm an ARSE & have been since 2007, back when I played LFS in the AAL.

Real name is Wayne Flint, aged 42, married with 2 kids (Boy 10 & Girl 6) & live in Melbourne's glorious South Eastern burbs.
I work for the biggest Telco in AUS (don't hold it against me) as a PM in the Wireless/Mobiles space.

I started Sim racing online late in 2006 with LFS in MNR before the XGN affiliation & also in the AAL before helping create, mod & run the LFSEA events with Sapient (Oz-Bee) for the short time it lasted. I then went back in time to discover GPL but eventually I gave up sim racing in 2008 to pursue competitive road cycling.
But the simracing bug caught me again recently for a few reasons, one was I had some spare PC equipment & thought I really should make the cockpit I had always dreamed of & two I discovered Assetto Corsa & couldn't believe how good it looked & felt.
So from there I built my PVC cockpit (which is still WIP) & also helped start AACL with norbs, Pixelboy & Righty.



Looking forward to racing you guys in the ARSE vs XGN event & maybe I'll jump into one of your sessions in the future, assuming we don't kill each other tomorrow night. ;)

Hi everybody at the other side of earth  ;) and a special hello to Wally

Why I decided to register here ...? A kind of saying thanks to Wally for his work for AC, apps or tools I'm now using in our french league.

Jempy is an old belgian guy 63 years old ( body ) and much younger in the mind.  :)
I began simracing with an arcade game named Shift, I quickly left as I was more attracted by real simulation, being a motor race fan since my 14.

I visited then GTR2, Race07, Rfactor ... and of course now Assetto Corsa.
Learned alone how to use Gimp2, how to skin .... and how game were working.
Present at most great forums as RD, Nogrip Racing and F1Classic .... even though my native language is ... french.

I'm now co-admin, moderator and member of the Race Direction for +- 2 years at a french league with Race07 and now AC as main platform.
Treasurer of the french association ... the worst part, sometimes !  :P

Sorry in advance for not being often present here and surely never or rarely present for a race or another activity: time of day or surely high pings are surely not the best things in this case.

Thanks Wally for your work and have pleasure with AC, all drivers of this league.

Cheers,
Jempy.

Edit:
Ooops I forgot !
We will be in Australia this friday night for our  last round of our AC Open Race championship .... at Bathurst.  8)

Hello Jempy, what a pleasure to read your posting, thanks.  Certainly is good to see 'our' Wally is appreciated so widely as well as here.

Have fun at Bathurst...

Question:  your assessment of the AC Bathurst track for a league race?

Thanks Wally and Bruce,

First assessment then: too wide but ... walls are so near sometimes  :P
36 pits in the Ui_track file ... but that's only the number for the grid ...

I already had to open a second server for our pre-qualifications as the nineteenth driver didn't appear in the log ... so quickly noticed the problem.
No problem as we'll surely be +- 28 or 30 drivers and in this case I prefer creating 2 servers ....
Better so or I don't know how many drivers will see the finish line ... or how many will be crashed and glued to the .... walls !  ;D ;D
We'll be driving the 2 GT2 cars there.

Final assessment after our friday race.

Hi my names Shaun im from NZ and I being looking for a new sim title and league to get into and have been watching the development of several titles RF2, Project cars and AC. I've being racing sims since Indianapolis 500 in  1989 then F1 on the amiga 500. went thru the GT series on GTP and Forza also the race on series. My first wheel being a early Fanatec and a xbox wheel 6 of them lol. I then upgraded to a fanatec turbo s wheel and CS pedals for RF and now are using a fanatec CSW with CS v2 pedals for AC and iracing. My fav are the historic car series. Look forward to some great racing with XGN members. AC Rocks!

May God give you traction.

PS: marty also has a "few" public servers up which many of us jump on ad hoc and behavior has been excellent (and marty's behavior too  ;D )
just filter for "marty" as well as "xgn"

2 fun runs on this week...
