Guys I just put the server up for this, but I wont have the chance to try it out until tomorrow. If someone could give it a quick trial that would be great.

just downloading the latest version of the track (had only v1.2) doh!! and will test out the server...

 

[Steve Emmons]

Please note that you will need to adjust any setups that you had done before v1.2

I didn't install the new default setups, was just using my old modified ones. Are the new defaults setups the same as before or different?

Seems fine Eric. No problems...:thumb:

I'm wondering if the snapping effect was due to the packer changes. It was mostly happening under hard braking, but also noticed that the curbs were seriously more treacherous. Now that I think about it the car may have been bottoming out more on the straights as well. Seems better after adjusting the packers.

Do you know if the physics engine models things like that, i.e. bottoming out?

Thanks...

without packers and running the default 50mm suspension travel, you will bottom out alot more

Yes the physics engine models "bottom out" And there is a setting for each cars as to how the car is effected when it does...

the new defaults I corrected the rear wing to be at the higher end of downforce as per the older versions were set... but the new defaults will need packers

Managed to get myself running at a decent pace with the C30. I tried the Audi and it was just too heavy for the hilly track.

Quali: Nailed a PB and was able to get the early lead, and settled for 2nd when Gary nailed his lap.

Race #1: Got a wicked start, nailing the lights, and got out front. (it seemed 2nd place started ahead of 1st place but was on the outside and thankfully for T1 it was wide enough to hold) I Got out front with Gay applying alot of pressure. I was trying to not make mistakes when around lap 7 gary made a mistake and gave me a nice lead. Pitted lap 10 and did it perfect and ran to the 2nd last lap with 10 sec lead. I then managed to spin on my own but luckily only lost 5 seconds and held it together to get the win.

Race 2: Started 8th, and was being super cautious at the start. Avoided the early wrecks and began trying to pick up positions. I was In 4th I believe going by Philip antonio, and everytime I managed to get by him I would spin or run really wide. I then pitted early on lap 7 and after the cycle I was in 3rd behind Marty. We were pretty evenly matched, but as I would catch up I would make a mistake. Then with 5 laps left, I was 5 secs back and pushed HARRRRRD. Starting the last lap I got to .4 of marty and as we approached Jason to lap him he went wide and got around and came across the track. I saw this all in slow motion it seemed, and anticipated the movement. Jason came across into marty and I JUSTTTT missed him inside. This got me into 2nd and where I needed to be to tie for the overall win.

Grats to gary for race #2. And good race to all. Thanks again for the fun.

Thanks RD for hosting and Eric for organizing.

See you next friday.

I ran some test laps tonite. Got down to 1:59.4 after a few changes, and only about 10 laps.

Anyone else done any testing?

I might be up to test a bit later tonite. Just watching a movie right now.

I'm finding this track far more challenging to get consistant and so far am only around the 2.02's but with respect to Barcelona last week, my lap times where about 2 seconds slower than the pole sitters from memory...

 

[Günthar Rowe]

oh, and I believe that the v1.2 DTM is ~ 1 second slower at Barcelona than v1.1 DTM

I guess that my first clue should have been that I was pointing backwards...:rotfl:

 

[Steve Emmons]

Think I was able to make a 159:0xx, but am not real consistent.

[Günthar Rowe]

sorry guys, I have to work now, so please open up my slot

 

[Stefan Werner]

Just did a couple of laps with the new version and my lap times dropped about 2-3 seconds. Was running 1.58-1.59 with the old version on default setup and i just did a 2.01 flat.

On another note, wow does the FFB in GTR-Evo feel great after a few days of playing iRacing. lol

 

[Freddie Besems]

skin adding

I think you need somecar to watch over you.

so im going for this skin.

Hope i can make my own skin in future, maybe at my partners work they can make me one. (if they give allowance for it, need some advertising stuff)

I hope that was sarcastic... iRacing FFB feels much better to me.

Just run a couple of laps, did a 1:58:1xx. With a few more tweaks and a bit of practice i should be able to run low 57's.

 

[Bob Luneski]

I am sorry that I have to withdraw from this event. It is Memorial Day in the US and my wife invited a bunch of friends over for a barbeque at the same time as the race :frown:
