Sincere apologies for running into you @Ross Garland, I'm glad you saved it and could continue with no harm. I was way too optimistic there...

Haha, no worries buddy... a scary moment for sure! I was quite impressed with myself for hanging onto it there!

Hi,

Please remove me from this event. Only just noticed it's a rookies event and it wouldnt be fair to participate.

Just a quick post to the RD team and the broadcast they did last night. Very high quality and the Raceroom system works really well with the overlays, director mode, etc. Some fine tuning required by Sector3 but for what it does it must be very useful for the broadcast team.

Got my hands full with all sorts of things at the moment (I was working whilst watching the race) but hoping to join back in again soon.

Well done to Christian on his two wins and for everyone else for some great battles

Nasos Charalampou · Apr 24, 2017

As always a greatly fun and full with battles couple of races.

Bravo to Christian for the double wins and good job to all the rest for the close racing.

Also thanks to @joseph for the the quality broadcast.

@Gopher04 it was me who told you that you seemed to use a bit more steering input when i was behind you.You could maybe reduce steering ratio and try to turn less -at least when accelerating-.That way your tyres will last longer -not a good thing for us though

-.

I managed to gain almost half a sec with only changing the brake bias for race 2 so that put me in the mix but still i had some scary moments when the back end of my car refused to follow the correct path

.

As was said above regardless of the result and raw laptimes we had fun and enjoyed it.

I got disconnected from the game during the race warmup, what a bummer, second time in row after thursday the game messes me up. On a side note, the broadcast was top notch, congrats to all the participants. Except Nasos, no congrats for him, ever.

give me your setup biatch

Nasos Charalampou · Apr 24, 2017

double post mess up

Jopamir · Apr 24, 2017

I think that, for the broadcast (ever increasing) "quality" 's sake, whenever possible, live streamed events should have different liveries throughout the grid as a rule/recommendation...
I think viewers, and @Joseph Wright too, would appreciate that.
What you guys think?
Cheers

Nasos Charalampou · Apr 24, 2017

@Case_ could you please tell me how to display throttle and brake pedals ingame with the overlay you have in the video above?

Yes from a viewers perspective it certainly would be better (I think about half of the Honda's were the same livery last night), but I am mindful of the cost per livery on this title and asking people to spend extra to join a club race. I don't mind spending a little to make sure my car is different. If you'd purchased the pack though that wouldn't be an issue anyway.

With the free content though it wouldn't be an issue of course.

I have all available content, but many don't so this is the issue I have with the idea. ^^ Given the limited liveries, it may also force people to drive a car they don't want to drive if there are no liveries left for their usual carriage. I realise it's being streamed and would "look better", but I think for club racing the priority has to be with the drivers.

Mate, the "rookie" tag just means that beginners are encouraged. Veterans are still more than welcome. Indeed, the whole point is to get experienced drivers and novices mixing together so that help and advice can be passed on. I'm no rookie and my advice is worthless, but I'm still joining in!

Lorenzo Bonder · Apr 24, 2017

I'll take on it

Mondyrocks · Apr 24, 2017

Ggrr, phone call from work today, gotta work Thursday now so I can't make it!

Sorry Kenny

Mondyrocks · Apr 24, 2017

Yay, I can race here instead of Thursday!!
Sign me in please Kenny, I'm missing you lot, lol

randomcallsign · Apr 24, 2017

Case_ · Apr 24, 2017

@Nasos Charalampou I'm using an app called Wheeler.

Ignoring the cost, there's still only like four liveries for the Honda and three of them are exactly the same apart from the car number. And I believe it's pretty much the same with the other WTCC cars.

I have to say I never thought the livery limitations of R3E are a problem until I saw a race broadcast

It would be better, I guess, if S3 allowed us to have custom car numbers at least, but I guess it's not likely to happen.

Christian Moreau · Apr 24, 2017

It's that time again, pick your poison and get it out on track, hard to handle but fast P1's, popular and slightly easier P2's or the great handling GT3 cars. Whichever you choose, you'll need to concentrate for the hour long event.

There are several spots on track where track limit penalties are not given by the game for crossing the white lines. They are at the Lesmo curve and at the exit of Ascari. Remember RD race club rule #8. Exceeding the limits consistently will result in race stewards taking action.
