In please ....thanks

Hey Craig. Check your pm's for the server password thread.

I'll send you another pm now in a few with a username and pw, so you can select a car/livery for the championship using the link at the end of the first post.

Enjoy the laps!

Just an observation.
I love the old BTCC Primera, I could set the car up really well, either the 2017 or 2018, I cannot remember. The latest one is rubbish, there is no latitude in its setup. You start with a pig of a car, after setting it up it is still a pig of a car. The only positive is it is still fun.

PS, great to see you back Craig, for me, it has made my day..

What I imagine when reading your description Ernie

What I'm guessing you actually meant

I've never driven the older version but I get what you mean. Maybe what's helping me is that I know nothing about set ups for FWD cars, so all my "setting up" is done in the drivers seat

. Biggest being, keeping it as smooth as I can on the gas, brake and weight transfer. Not that it doesn't have the kick to pull itself out of a slide, but it's not the fast way.

Lots of turns I'm at half throttle for longer than i think I should, but it's consistently fast. Maybe it's just my G27 wheel, but I can feel when it locks in traction and can take full throttle, if that makes sense at all

What you imagine is about spot on Robert.

Is there any way to turn off the virtual rearview mirror on the test server?

And will there be a test event for the championship?

Ross McGregor · Jul 30, 2023

I'm interested but have a question: why no Knockhill?!

The forced virtual mirror is just a server option. I guess it's a mistake it's on?

Apologies, as Colins say, it can be forced on to improve drivong standards

. It's off now!

Nothing confirmed but will probably blow the cobwebs of them, yes.

Hi Ross,

I had another look since setting this up and found a version on here that could work. I've not had a chance to drive it yet.
Might swap it for one of the last races of the season if it checks out ok.

Important to note,

Probably best to try out the cars on the practice server before you click register in ACSM and select a car, as the BOP from your first selection will stick. I can change it no problem but it could mean waiting a day or so.

Hi Brian, I changed from the Bimmer to the Volvo, not sure if I need to let you know - from no BoP to BoP, I mean

Ah yes, that seems to be an older version of the track that's a bit low on quality. There's a newer version kicking around somewhere but not on RD, sadly.
