AC Alfa Romeo Tipo 33 TT 12 @ Grobnik - Tue 14 May

[JamKart22]

Welcome to the RD Racing Club.

Nestling on the Croatian coast in the mountains above the city of Rijeka is the Automotodrom Grobnik, once home to the stars of the motorcycling world but after being rather forgotten by international racing, it is now beginning to re-establish itself to a wider audience.

Fast and flowing, it remains the only FIA and FIM-accredited circuit in Croatia and is a popular testing facility, as well as a race venue. The anti-clockwise circuit is surrounded with mountains with stunning views all round.

This track was used a few weeks ago for the Weds multi class race - so you should be familiar with it.

What happened to the fat Alfie track?

 

[JamKart22]

You mean for next week? Which one?

 

[Kek700]

Oh? I see what you mean, it is the 26th.
It dropped from view on my mobile, I had wrongly assumed it had been scrubbed

 

[Twoddle]

Sorry guys, wont be able to do any races this week also wont be active on RD/OT in that time as well as i wont be at my pc.

 

[JamKart22]

A few regulars are away this week so if I don't get more sign ups I'll move it to next week

 

[JamKart22]

I've moved it to next week - so we'll see if that increases the numbers

 

[Kek700]

Generally speaking the numbers are down in most if not all events.
I wonder why.

 

[JamKart22]

People have other things to do as the nights get lighter plus there are more events to pick from.

did some lap with this mod seems fun only thing seems very much understeery could be the setup since i have not touch anything except the aero

 

[Kek700]

I suppose I am comfortable with understeer. So I would not be too worried about that. In fact I try to get some understeer into a car.
A long winded way of saying, setup for this car is not really important. ( it does very little ). So I would be removing rear wing if your aim to make it rotate more.
I think my rear wing is always a secure 3, if that is of any help.

 

[JamKart22]

Still only five signed up for this so I'll just cancel it if there aren't few more sign ups today.

I'm on holiday next week and I'll have a rethink about what classics to put on in the future.

 

[Twoddle]

I wont be able to join as I am still ill from Sunday and i regret doing that race as it made me feel a lot worse after it and don't want to do that again but otherwise i would have joined.

 

[Daniel R.]

Hey guys.

Cheers Dan

Hi Dan,

I will send you a PM with the necessary information including Emperor account and server password.

 

[max1966i]

@HF2000 Could I also have a PM to set up an emperor account, where Dan goes I usually follow

 

[JamKart22]

Still not enough sign up so cancelling.

The new guys should sign up for the weds race if you want a race with this club

 

[Kek700]

Bugger, it is one of the very few circuit I can race this car on, if we return can we use this circuits first.

For me, this is the circuit that brings the best from this car, admittedly for me, had a feeling it was too good to be true.
