Gubbed my left foot so might have to right foot brake for this one which I can't do to save myself....

Best idea is to let me get pole so I don't take you all out at the start

I get a crash to desktop when entering Silverstone GT with that car, other cars are fine, WSGT Megane on other tracks is fine also.

Karts make my wheel go nuts, so i thought it's time to do my first rF2 race. I do flirt with the AC forums every now and then though

A bit unfortunate @Bryan Stark . I had a little moment in Stowe and I was in the same situation as you. If the car in front of you as a momentm you are likely to spin. Sorry for that was a great battle. I had more top speed and was just trying to defend, because I had so little track time there was no point in pushing super hard to get away.

I hope it was all clean. Sometimes I was just a bit busy with the car. These cars still give me FPS drops though. Before Boorklance I have 80FPS+ and on the pit straight and into T1 it drops down heavily and feels laggy. It shows me still 35FPS, but that is not enough in rF2. Maybe I have to lower my settings for the race on Friday, which is a joke considering the hardware, but that Mod is FPS heavy and Silverstone as well

Andrew Ford · Feb 27, 2014

offline i had to drop my settings as it was slightly laggy and i have i7 and all the works technology lol

nice to get a TXL Racing 1-2 and Calum (injured) nearlyy got 3rd!

Calum McLure · Feb 27, 2014

Now that I think about it I could have turned down the load cell on my pedals and I wouldn't have needed to brake as hard

I'll try that tonight and see if I can manage tomorrow.

Yeah it was a good battle until i lost it and wrecked my car! Oops :-p If I'm honest i don't think i would have got passed you anyway Frederic, the dirty air was causing a lot of understeer especially in the fast corners. I probably could have made a lunge down the inside a couple of times but i never felt confident and no doubt would have made contact so i decided against it, up until then it was very good fun but just a shame i lost it and couldn't keep you on your toes the rest of the race

I was kind of "happy" that you were gone. I had a lower wing and T3 on Lap 1 was really the only opportunity I saw to get passed. I could have gone a bit faster sometimes, but with just 10 laps practice I didn't want to throw it away, so I just made sure, that my exits are good enough to keep you behind

I have to work on qualy pace for Friday. There was lot's more pace in it. My first lap in the race was quicker than qualy

If I'm honest i was day dreaming there, when i realized you were making the move it was to late and i got a lovely view of your rear

Haha yeah i noticed you did 1.59.7 in race, you should be good for a low 1.58 or high 1.57 in qualy no problem. I would love to race on Friday also but i won't be at home sadly
