The one and only:thunder:

 

[Glenn Petersen]

Take me off the list, please. I won't be able to make this race.

 

[Ross Balfour]

Moi!!
With THIS beauty

 

[Andrew Herron]

Sign me up please.

 

[João Andias]

I would really like to sign up for this one, but it seems my pc can't handle this track. Every time i start up a practice session my computer freezes after half a lap... I dont have this problem at any other track.

Anyone know a solution?

Lower you Graphic settings to an absolute minimum (in game), if the track loads, you have found out why it didn't... If it doesn't run all the same, fully uninstall the track (if needed run the exe and unpack to a different directory to learn what the install is doing) and install it again.

What machine do you have? (CPU/GPU/OS/RAM)

 

[Alex Townsend]

I'd love to have a go in these!

Am I right in thinking it's 1am in the morning for us in the UK?

 

[Jarrod Keen]

Probably is 1 am..... it's 9pm eastern NYC time.

 

[Dennis Phelan]

can i ask how do i make video?

I take it you already have the replay?
FRAPS has a free download of a trial version. Limits vid's to 30 sec clips but they can be added together using basic MS software.

 

[Michael Carver]

Whew!!! I knew that there were aliens amongst us, but I had at least hoped they were from our own universe. At least this puts my mind to rest -- "our" aliens are from "our" universe. Of course I will change my mind come race day and I see someone's 1:58 ....

WAIT! ****! I WAS DOING DETROIT STREET! I THOUGHT IT WAS THE SAME!

thanks Joao! Setting the details back was it! Now im going to practice a bit and see if i can get up to speed to sign in. What car class is faster? and which particular car?

[Alex Townsend]

Ok cool - Would like to have a go at this as have the late shift the following day

Would it be ok to provisionally put my name down if there is space?
I'm new so if it starts to fill up and you want to free up a space it's not a problem.

Just thought, if this is US won't I be a bit laggy for everyone being in the UK?

 

[Andrew Evans]

everyone's got a little bit of vaughany in them.

:sickfeeling:

[Dennis Phelan]

I recently found out that Q sessions offer more traction than practice does! I took this to heart and pressed hard, results came in a 13+ sec run[!] which got me all of 16th place on the grid out of 19 drivers, lol!

R1:A rapid deterioration of p16 to p17 by the first turn. End of first lap, holding p14 with Claudio on my bumper and up to p11 we go. It's good to have pressure like that! Clean until I go off off after the mid-esses an rejoin at p13. Alone and I get a free move to p12 and then I guess p11 as Itry to catch Koray.

R2: Up to p10 as we go thru the twin tire towers with Brandon eager to get by me. Beining of l2 and I'm off the front straight, rejoiniing in p17, Michel behind and ilie just ahead. Michel gets close and by me. Willie and I wave to each other a few times as our cars start drifting and we swap. I'm off at the last esses aand in p14. End the race in p9.

I picked up some good lines today at the Glen and here, helped a lot. I also learned a bit more about the Mini's.

Good racing! A controversial track for sure, I think it's fun.

Thanks RD and also Yves for running so many events.

 

[Rob Goldthorpe]

everyone's got a little bit of vaughany in them.

:sickfeeling:

[Ryan Callan]

The servers are usually ok, I don't have a great connection and I rearely see lag.

And it's 2am, UK is still GMT+1 until October.

Very competitive racing as always in the mini's, very quick pace by the top of the grid.

There was so much action it is hard to keep it all straight without going back to replay, but I'll try anyway.

Qual: Never really found the pace in qual - barely cracked into the 1.13's while the top guys made it into the 1.12's and I think even the 1.11's. Started in P14 I think (maybe P15).

Race 1: Fat minis on a fast, narrow track leads to some pinball effect - this was no different. I got a good start and tip-toe'd around some crashes to move up into the top 10. Had a great battle for pretty much the entire race with about 4 cars - the only name I saw consistently was Will, as for some reason the names kept appearing and disappearing and his was one of the few that stayed up the whole time. I had made it as high as P7 I believe but some aggressive early driving took its toll on my tires and I had little grip the last 3-4 laps. That was enough for me to make a few small mistakes, and I finished in P10.

Race 2: Started P10 and again was able to get up into a main group in top 10. Was cruising along for the first couple laps until the chicane on I believe lap 3, when Brandon came out from behind me carrying more speed and tapped my rear quarter which sent me seemingly 5 miles off course. I think he stopped and waited for awhile - thanks for the thought - but it took so long for me to make it back on track I think he gave up on waiting. Came back on in I believe P17 behind Tim and tried to give him a battle, but I just wasn't concentrating after the off. He went off a bit and I snuck by, but I was driving sloppily. Sorry Tim for our incident on the next lap - I wasn't concentrating and I missed a shift coming out of I think T2, that is why I slowed so suddenly - definitely not your fault. About the time I got my concentration back people were dropping out left and right, and I was able to eventually make my way all the way back to P10. I wasn't quite able to catch Dennis and that is where I stayed.

Overall P8.

Thanks to Yves for setting up the Wed. race as always - good to see such a crowd this week, even with all the pre-race bickering. Some of you guys need to relax and save the stress for the leagues
