A message to all Drivers

If you run off track, you have to check to see that its clear before you re enter the track. Do not just keep the gas pinned and pull back on track.

When entering the track from the pits, stay off the racing line until you are up to speed. Do not race on your out lap, let other drivers by. On re-entering the track stay off the racing line until you are up to race speed and do not block any fast approaching car.

Golden Rule

1. If you hit somebody off the track and carry on like nothing happened, you take the risk of being banned for 30 days.
2. Instead, you should always wait for the affected drivers, and that way you can be 100% sure you will not get a ban.

Track limits

1. No more than 2 wheels over the white/yellow line without a lift of the gas please.
   You will be penalized if you break our rules

Note: Please use your full real name in teamspeak. Not doing so may result in you being kicked from the server if an admin cannot identify you as a premium member.

Welcome!

For FFB, my usual suggestions would be:

1. Use only the "gain" slider, since as far as I know other effects are canned
2. Use something like FFBClip to adjust per-car. Personally I don't care about a little clipping, but a lot is to be avoided.

Got a new pedal set from my better half. Now, it needs a first proper use.

[UHF79]

In please chris. 488

 

[pattikins]

I don't think Chris has put the servers up yet. When he does, just search for 'raced' & you should see something like this: Racedepartment.com EU GT3 Practice #12

 

[pattikins]

I hope everyone has had a good x-mas holiday.

Count me in with the 650 please Chris.

 

[UHF79]

We love to have you but please read the rules in the first post carefully. Especially the part of using your real name. You can find a field 'real name' in your account details. It's accessable by clicking on your green 'U' in the upper right corner (mine is an aeroplane).
