[Reik Major]

Agree, the track is really challenging. A very clean line required, especially through the last esses.

 

[Krzysztof Volek]

What can I say, yesterday race was the first online event (excludind time trial at Saponaro) for me in coming back to simracing after very long brake, so basicly the thing I was worried about the most was to not screw up someone elses race with some unpredictable behaviour on track.
Race one was quite uneventful, as I was obviously starting from the back of the grid (though two drivers didn't run their qual session, so I was not the last one). I slightly missed the green and probably suprised the guy behind me. Eventually I got +1 lap from nearly all the participants, which was to be expected on such short and difficult track.

Race two was much more stresfull as I had all the grid behind me and as I expected I couldn't resist the pressure for long time and bailed out one of the first turns (but luckily I dind't cause a major crash on T1). Later I had some very enjoyable racing with Janko, I guess it had to be very frustrating for him, as he was clearly faster then me, but I managed to maintain position for a few laps. Unfortunately I screwed up a turn and once again I was the last one, and soon after this I got +1 lap.

Congrats for podiums, thanks to all of you for good fun, thanks to Dennis for organisation of the event. I'm sure I will race more often with you guys.

 

[Krzysztof Volek]

Count me in. This track seems to be much more enjoyable and under control in this ugly old Volvo.

It's a "mini-maybe"

EDIT
Uh-oh. Likely won't make it.
Story time: With my current PC over 4 years old (and both the case and PSU weighing in at 8 years), I decided to go for a pretty good offer and ordered a new one yesterday. Apparently, the current one noticed and/or I ordered at the exact right time - a mere hour afterwards, I planned to do some offline laps at Nords (because why not? ) and the whole PC crashed with the "AMD Northbridge" being the culprit according to the Event Log - not exactly good news.
Tried updating, BIOS, drivers, etc, but to no avail - I actually didn't try any other tracks, but with the Northbridge involved, that doesn't quite seem like a possible solution/explanation.
Soooo.. if I can't fix it up this afternoon, I'm likely out of racing (interestingly enough, normal Windows usage works just fine) until at least the weekend/whenever the new machine arrives.

I've found another 3 sec. Luv it.

 

[Dennis Phelan]

That's what it's all about Andrew!

 

[ajokay]

Never... EVER... let your old PC/car/washing machine hear you say you're getting a new one!

 

[Dennis Phelan]

Sorry guys, I have to bail on today,s race. One of our dogs has to be taken to the vet's for a small problem. I'll be back tomorrow. I hope a few more show for you.

 

[4 8 15 16 23 42 108]

Signing up late!

 

[Nelson Ullinskey]

Well I feel terrible about all that

Everything is good and jolly, then my computer quits to desktop and updates! So I restart, and try to get Race 07 going to join. Only problem is that it says it is already running! This is resolved, but I am a minute late. Luckily, I talk with David on team speak who kind enough to restart it so I can get in! Then the game crashes to desktop just as we go into warm up

So sorry for making you guys go through all that only to have the game crash on me

 

[Arunas]

I was kicked off when server went from practice2 to qual
This track has a lot of bugs
At the start my pole position came to 5th place and cars was merged with another player..
And something wrong with blue flags

 

[David Hudson]

I'm confused Dennis, the race is tomorrow. It's Thursday today.

 

[Krzysztof Volek]

I confirm, there were some bugs. First my car was stuck on the same position on the grid with Arunas' car. Then, I got blue flag when he was behind me even though we were on the same lap. After few laps only three of us remain on the track. I got some very nice racing with Andreas, although it sometimes looked as if he was waiting for me on purpose, when he got ahead too far . After close fight i got some strange freeze, which bailed me out of the track, when I came back i was the last one. After 15 laps I drove off to pit stop for refuel and change of tyres. I thought that there will be 30 laps of the race, but it turned out that the server was set up different. Shortly after pitting I got +1 lap from Arunas. On the last lap I spinned and was almost overtaken by Andreas, but luckily I managed to finish only slightly ahead of him as second.
It's a pity that so few drivers made it, it's a fun track in this old BMW. Thank you all for good fun.

 

[James Price-Harper]

I'll build up the numbers. In
