Rally - Rally of Great Britain - Mon 1st & Tues 2nd November 2010

[Rob Carr]

o question. Does this mean he can join the rally and then we'll sort out the licensing later?

 

[Senad Subasic]

Sure, it would be a shame for him to miss it :good:

BTW, Warren's test session is open now, tell him to try to join too.

 

[Rob Carr]

Okay sounds good Senad.

 

[Rob Carr]

Okay now I have an issue. I try to load up the online session and it tells me my time is not correct. I tested this earlier and it worked fine. So then I let it make the adjustment and it tells me it couldn't do it so I need to do it manually. I don't understand this, since I tested it already in a session online to confirm I was good.

 

[Senad Subasic]

I haven't come across that, no idea what the problem might be . Hope you get it sorted, 45 minutes till the actual rally.

Everything okay for Mal?

 

[Rob Carr]

The message says the Date and Hour were not able to be updated. Please adjust the hour manually.

 

[Rob Carr]

He's good to go, except he doesn't have the last stage. He'll have to skip that one. I don't understand why this happened. I tested it without issues. Let me restart my PC.

 

[Senad Subasic]

He'll have to download the stage pack, he won't be able to join the rally if he hasn't got all stages. He can try with the test session, and he'll get an error message.

 

[Aaron DeMarre]

You have to download the last stage in BTB pack 2. http://forum.rallyesim.fr/viewtopic.php?f=442&t=2383

I thought I had it myself, just tried to run it and no-go

Downloading now, will be done just in time for the session open.

 

[Warren Dawes]

You have to download the full BTB Pack 2, then you get all of the Stages in that pack. You can't download them separately I don't think.

 

[Warren Dawes]

Unfortunately, Mal wasn't able to get his BTB Stages downloaded in time, so I have set up another Rally for him named "RD Great Britain OCX" starting at 8.00 GMT which is 6PM Queensland time.

I joined the guys on TS and Rob and Mal seem to have their installations mostly sorted. Great to have you on board, and great to meet Aaron on TS as well.

 

[Aaron DeMarre]

Good to meet you too! It was fun having people to chat with this time around.

My rally went about as well as it could have with just running cold. Had some good stages and some "good for Senad's movies" stages One DNF in the rain.

 

[Warren Dawes]

The three Aussie amigos have finally finished the OC Rally. Lots of fun, plenty of cheek over TS, plenty of sad tales of crashes into rivers, and some close quickish times among it all.
Damien and Rick kept taking turns to make sure I couldn't win any Stages for our group, but I had the last laugh (well sorta). :tongue:

It was all going nice and smoothly, usual Mr Steady for me, until the last Stage. I managed to pull off the slowest roll down the hill after a very simple little mistake (note to self, don't use the handbrake on that long sweeping turn). The car gently rolled over and over down the hill for what seemed an eternity, finally finishing on it's roof, so I had to call for help.

I really enjoyed this Rally, the England Stages are always exciting and challenging, especially when the weather turns nasty.

Thanks to Damien and Rick for the fun competition and the TS stories.

I'm away for the next three weeks or so, so I'll leave you all in Senads hands :eek:, with some assistance from Damien and Rick. Have fun, and see you when I return, just in time for Round 4 of the RDRC I hope. :ups:

 

[Łukasz Demolin]

Have fun on your time away, glad to hear that I'm not the only one loving English stages .

Now I'm really interested in the results, wondering how fast you guys are in Gp. A compared to us (as in me, Senad, Robb and other similar-paced from Euro sessions. Jakub is usually an alien, so I don't count him ).

 

[Senad Subasic]

Nooo, my only stage win, gone... Why'd you do it Rick, why... :rose-dead:

Roman can't make it tonight, so just Ondrej left, right?

 

[Rob Carr]

Hey guys it was really nice chatting with you as well. As expected my first rally was a train wreck but it was all good fun. I knew I was in for a long rally when TS crashed my PC to start the rally. LOL. Oh well good fun, and look forward to racing with you guys next week!

Warren and Aaron - thanks for showing Mal and I the ropes. Appreciate your help.

 

[Aaron DeMarre]

No problem glad to help, RSRBR can be tricky to get setup right.

Roman couldn't make it at 21, nobody else signed up, so I didn't create it.

If you want me to create one now, send me a PM please, I'm in GTL at the moment
