Rules:
If you have not entered the server and driven a few laps with fellow drivers before we go to qualifying you are to late for that session. Please think of your fellow drivers and get out on track with them, watch how they drive, you can't race with guys you have not seen drive.
We ALL brake a little differently and drive the corners differently, get used to how they drive and then we can all race more safely.
If you drop out of the server during qualifying you can return.

This is being held in our Club, using Club Rules, and should be driven in that spirit.

@Jeff Lasecki if you can join us next week, you won't regret

 

[Jack Smith]

Great fun as always ...except if you blow your engine ... which never happened today.... completed both events..... so great fun.

I hope I did not cause you grief Andrej as we negotiated the turn and you ended up off track and kept going behind the fence. I slowed for you but you never returned to track. I saw you driving along the outside of the fence. Just exploring I hope.

I received a pit speed penalty in race 2, not realizing the pit speed limit was 70.

Thanks Rupe and Yves for the event. Cheers to all drivers.

Just downloaded the track. It's awesome, I will definitely have to get up to speed on these cars, finally forced to work on that heel toe thang. See on the track

 

[Yves Larose]

@Jeff Lasecki welcome to the club mate i don,t fully use the heel and toe technic but since i'm using auto cluch for the downshift it allow me to brake with my left foot and blip the throttle on the downshift.

I have really trouble finding races as good & fun as those anywhere else, love this club. New guys, regulars, bit quicker or a little slower, everyone is driving clean and respectfully and seems to enjoy his tracktime despite the occasional hick-up with those cars that demand so so much focus.I guess the cars just attract a more mature audience.
Sorry for shamelessly grabbing both wins i kinda had a good flow on this track and it really felt like an achievement after those hot battles .

I think (and hope) this club will grow in the long term, as those cars are so rewarding and hard to put down after you overcome the initial learning curve and stick with them. If you're not discouraged by race three, chances are you'll get addicted .

And who knows what is still to come (rF2?), the mod is constantly being worked on and instead of getting bored with it i like it more and more with every new year and build.

Thanks to @Rupe Wilson , @Yves Larose and to everyone else who helps running this.
Cheers to the clubbers, it's been a pleasure once again .

No Jack, that wasnt your fault, I just saw a friend in the crowd and wanted to give him a ride... But the marshals were against and didnt let me go back on the track with him as a co driver so I got pissed and left the track to provide that experience at least on public roads

 

[Quas]

Gonna be on to check out the track in an hour or so, join if you're bored .

 

[JeffL]

I don't know why this mod isn't more popular, it is absolutely brilliant.

 

[Yves Larose]

I don't know why this mod isn't more popular, it is absolutely brilliant.

there is a few reasons that comes to mind for me, first people wants to play the new thing (Game) and not the old thing. another reason for me is that people prefer racing cars that they see on TV rather then cars from the past which in my opinion are harder to drive then what we have now.

 

[JeffL]

Yea, I guess that's it. I just grew up driving these cars and it just feels right. I am amazed how close they are to the real thing. Driving with your hips.

 

[JeffL]

Sign me up, this is my first online race with historx and rfactor, so besides trying to control these beasts. I may need some help with some of the logistics Do you do teamspeak?

 

[Sven-Arne Andersson]

@Rupe Wilson - Yes please.
