So you'd prefer no no, no no no no, no no no no, no no there's no limits?

No no limits, we'll reach for the sky!
No valley to deep, no maintain to high.......arty2:

 

[Stuart Thomson]

Well, if there's no real objections, we'll leave it with unrestricted choices of the 5 league cars then. :good:

 

[Warren Dawes]

I think that is a good idea. It's not a serious race night, so no real need to restrict it tighter than the League cars.

I'll try to join this but not totally sure yet. I have no idea what car I'll use in the League and haven't yet done any testing. However, it appears I may be away for the first two rounds, almost certainly for round 2, so I assume no rush for me to choose a car yet??
I'll probably toss a coin anyway.

 

[Stuart Thomson]

No mate, no rush.

You choose your car at sign up time once the thread opens, and it stays open throughout the league so you just sign up when you're ready, whenever that may be.

 

[Matt Crouch]

Pretty sure I'm there.

Was going to try 3 or 4 of the cars having excluded the Merc after Nurbugring. Already had opportunity to practice the Alpine so more interested in trying the others.

 

[Mark A Warmington]

Looks like a great event, hope it goes well. Unfortunately I have other commitments on Thursday nights so can't currently enter any GTL events .

 

[Amir Margalit]

sign me up as a reserve pls.

Mark, just so you are aware, we run GTL events on Tuesdays and Saturdays as well.

 

[Ben Tusting]

What time is the event starting Stuart?
Or is the server just going to be on all day?

 

[Warren Dawes]

Mark, just so you are aware, we run GTL events on Tuesdays and Saturdays as well.

Yes Mark, we'd love to see you join us for a few GTL Club events, it was always fun with you previously.

Sorry - me am dunce- I've added the event time now.

I would hope the server would be up from straight after the Abarth sprints event on the Tuesday.

We will have a timed event on the Thursday, starting at 20.00 following the above schedule, though.

 

[Stuart Thomson]

All - we will be opening the RDHGP League sign up thread immediately after this event.

:good:

 

[Stuart Thomson]

Gentlemen, the server......is up.

 

[Peter Duivelaar]

sign me up please!

 

[Stuart Thomson]

PLEASE NOTE - this event is NOT limited to league (or potential league) drivers.

Even if you have no intention of getting your League on, you are still more than welcome to come along and have a drive up with us. :good:

 

[Sam J Simpson]

Stuart, just been on server to check the tracks and it seems there is a texture conflict with Sachsenring and the Ferarri cockpit, texture goes all wierd and washed out, don't know if it does it with any other cars as I was just cycling through the tracks to make sure I had all the correct ones, could someone else check please just in case it's my install that's the problem?

TIA

Sam

 

[Stuart Thomson]

OK Sam - I'll check it when I get home - if anyone else can confirm before then and they are having the same thing, just let me know.

I'll swap the Sachsenring out for another track if it appears to be a more general thing :good:

 

[Warren Dawes]

I just checked it, and it happens to me too, both on-line and off-line.
However, it looks strange when sitting in the pitbay, but as soon as you drive out onto pitlane, it comes good.
So, I don't think it will be a problem for the race.

 

[Stuart Thomson]

Cheers Warren - same here - if it keeps on going wobbly for people after they leave the pitlane, please let me know and I'll swap the track out.

But, as it stands, it looks OK and pretty harmless to me, especially for a non-competetive test evening.

 

[Stuart Thomson]

If anyone goes on the server today before tonight's testing event, please try and keep the server on Practice or Quali so other people wishing to join are locked out.


Thanks in advance
