[Nuno Rodrigues]

i would sign but like yesterday´s mini´s, i dont have the track... And i dont know why, since i have almost all modes

 

[Sven Hielscher]

sry to say but I can't be there tonight
Anyhow I will be with you in the first event featuring my new mod ("soon" available)

 

[Vaughn Stegeman]

Not sure I'll be up for racing today. I feel a bit nauseous.

 

[Dennis Phelan]

@Nuno Rodrigues , It's in GTR Evolution.
I tried to get a url to the Steam store but I keep getting errors, maybe Steam is down/

 

[Damo]

Is the download to go in skins?

 

[Dennis Phelan]

@Damian Millett , Gamedata/Teams

 

[Nuno Rodrigues]

thanks Dennis, i got that one but not instaled. Going to do that right away ;-)

 

[David Kingshott]

Just for info I had a issue with being dumped as a possible cheat as I did not have Race On installed. Just might help someone out

 

[Björn]

Well, that was a nice end to the Nordschleife week

I liked the way the car was handling a lot better than yesterday's Mini (I also didn't forget to set it up properly this time, so that might be one reason ) and qualified 4th behind Justin, Arunas and Kacper.
Had a very entertaining first half of race #1 as I could pass Justin and Kacper due to small driving errors and managed to keep them behind me until somewhere in lap 3. Pitted right afterwards and went on to a fairly lonely race ending in P4.

Race #2 didn't start as good as I badly screwed up Fuchsröhre and got in everybody's way - sorry about that!
I managed to somewhat hang on to Arunas and Kacper through the rest of the race but kept losing some seconds every now and then and finished around 15secs behind them in the end.

I've really enjoyed this week despite the.. developable results but every lap was some kind of learning process, I guess I'm a lot less afraid of Adenauer now, and I'm a lot more afraid of Aremberg.

 

[Justin Swan]

A very enjoyable ending to what was quite a frustrating week at the Green Hell. Lots of mistakes made, throwing away positions here there and everywhere but tonight I was able to make amends.

Started 3rd in Race one after a mistake on my qually lap (I thought, here we go again). I was prety much out driven in Race 1 by Arunas and Kacper but to my surprise and good fortune, they both peeled into the pits just ahead of me and I made the decision there and then to stay out. Worked and treat and I was able to take it easy on my worn tyres as there was no immediate pressure behind me. Took the chequered flag

Race 2 I started from last place (reverse orders) and after a couple of tussles with Arunas and a car going off up ahead I found myself in 3rd place behind Dennis and David with the other guys caught up in something behind. Me and Dennis managed to get past David and settled in to an even pace with me keeping a 6-7 gap behind me. Dennis was keeping on it and not allowing me to relax too much but I was keeping the gap steady and took my 2nd chequered flag of the night.........now a beer!


Thanks for a great week Dennis and everyone who raced this week

 

[Dennis Phelan]

I would take this time to complain about my car as of course, my driving is flwless

Each session I did get better it ws very hard work as I tried to improve my already well honed skills

By the time Warmup ended I manages to get the gearbox close to correct, it was giving me a devil of a time.

Slow in R1 but able to stay near the leaders for a bit, then I lost a bit of time. I think I can remember an alien spacecraft shining bright lights at me but I took it as a sign and continued ahead without taking a pit stop. It didn't help, the gearbox was still screwed up and needed attention.

Intermission and a chance to grab the new gearbox, just flown in from the factory with just the right gears.

R2: A game of bumper cars with the Jack Daniels car for a while and then I made room for Justin,,,and a few small mistakes, but I'm human The new gears are better but still need improvement. Yet no one has caught me? Strange situation to have, fsat guys not catching me but I'll take to the finish.

The bad news, I never had a good gearset.
The good news, I know which ones to use next time!

Awards were given!
Arunas had donated two prizes and Justin by virtue or his double win took home the copy of
"F1 2012" and a drawing was held with a card for each driver that participated in the weeks racing, a printout of the signup sheets broken up. So some of us were in there numerous times. My wife, Joanne made the drawing and Kacper Kolodziejczyk was the first card for a driver that was actually present, to accept the game of "Nail'd".

So ends another week of running the Green. We will be back so don't let your laps lapse

 

[Arunas]

This event was pinnacle of all weeks racing!
At last I wasn't bumped out of the track with a lot of damage taken, so I was capable to show up the potential of my Peugeot 407 setup It suited quite well, but inconsistency was my biggest problem. But it lead to superb fight with Kacper.
A little bit pity for our clash in R2 after long long straight which ruined our final standings. But it was great Who-have-the-balls side to side racing which ended in sliding in to the grass-Kacper-barriers, but we BOTH HAVE THE BALLS
Thanks again for the great race guys and to RD for such a great community!
It was nearly perfect my BDay week!

 

[Damo]

Couldnt get in unfortunately , got so far - names coming down screen - then it had a billy fit.

Ho hum

 

[Dennis Phelan]

Damo, do you have Race On installed. It was found that it's needed for the mod as well.

 

[Kacper Kolodziejczyk]

Sign me up, got few laps in so far, way too fun to miss this one

 

[Björn]

With my Estoril laps in the single digit range, I guess I should use every opportunity to get to know this track Count me in!

 

[Nelson Ullinskey]

Well, I just ran a few practice laps and I seem to have a bit of an overheating problem. After seeing that the radiator is at a fixed setting, I see we have to keep these at a low RPM to prevent overheating. Now, I do not have a lot of free time today so I can not find out myself, but if anyone knows how much RPM we can use before overheating, please do share this information.

 

[Damo]

Yeh got eferything i think will check tho.

 

[Dennis Phelan]

@Nelson Ullinskey . I just drove 14 laps with an only slightly changed simbin setup. OK, probably not as fast as you but, no boiling water, no warning in red on the tachometer at the lower right on the screen, and no smoke coming out the back of the car. I did see the gauges reading high and when back in the garage water temp was at 97 and oil at 119 but these seem acceptable as there is no smoke, no holes in crankcase/con rods lying on the front straight. I don't have Motec so that's all I can tell you

 

[Arne Dopudja]

Kosir is also joining.
