Server is UP!

 

[Justin Swan]

I'm in but not committing to a car yet

 

[Gavin Hendley]

I'm in, I'll give both cars a test run first before deciding

 

[Dennis Phelan]

I don't think there's a need to pick a car, unless everyone shows up for the race in just one car

Four cars available, someone will get confused between top speed and lap time!

 

[PaulH]

In please

 

[Dennis Phelan]

I tried the Matech, C6R and Saleen today. After about three hours of fiddling with each I can see that they each perform about the same for me. As the motors are quite different for each car, gearing is the real nightmare.

 

[Nelson Ullinskey]

Sign me up for this, and I will probably show up in a Saleen but if that does not work out, then I'll use a Matech.

 

[Gavin Hendley]

I can't seem to get this track to work, it not the same as Spa?

 

[Dennis Phelan]

@Gavin Hendley This track comes with its own installer(exe) and i might place the track in the wrong location. I t was made before Steam relocated all the files .

 

[Nelson Ullinskey]

I had some problems to, but I figured it out...

Install Instructions:

You do not need to place the exe anywhere specific. Run the installer, but if it does nothing when you click on it use administrator privileges. After this, it will ask where you want it installed. DO NOT select the locations or gamedata folders, but simply the Race 07 folder. Let it install, it may take awhile, but it will and the track is installed!

 

[Gavin Hendley]

Thanks, run as administrator did the trick.

 

[Belet Michel]

i will enjoy to be there!
I was installed in a GME, and it works good!
But, why only three our four cars when yu have a cmplete class?
Fairwell, what is your researched top speed ?

 

[Dennis Phelan]

@Belet Michel , having the two brands fight it out was just to be different. It's not quite a "one car class" but will be about the same. Here in the USA there has always been a big brand name competition between Ford and Chevrolet.

I did do some top speed testing
I also ran laps to compare actual time around the track
find some time to practice, practice practice as the corners at Indianapolis and Arnage will have more of an effect on times than top speed!

 

[Belet Michel]

I know this track, just three or four corners imortant, like you said, and almost, the esses and the entry of hunaudiere straight. But just to know, because that straight is so lon. I've tested the saleen, and retry probably, i obteined 310Km/h. And to kno,w the real Gt goes on 340km/h!
Let's seeee!
I've employed to go with saleen so plug me in dennis!

 

[Björn]

Let's get used to GTs I'm in!

 

[H34d5h07]

Im in for this

 

[Gavin Hendley]

I'll be going Matech after my run last night, now to a achieve good top speed tonight.

 

[H34d5h07]

I yet have not decided what car to pick :/

 

[H34d5h07]

I like the Ford. Just not in this game. Sound is awful, and the shift indicator in cockpit is a joke. Having abused GTR2 like hell these last few weeks, going back to the mediocre R07 cars is little of a downgrade when it comes to GT cars. Anyway, I am a Vette fan, but I have raced so much with it, so for this race, I'm going to use the Saleen

 

[Damo]

yes plz
Damo ;+)
