rF2 Caterham Academy @ Italian GP - Thu 8th Dec 2011

[Ole Marius Myrvold]

I'm in! Password?

 

[Roland]

I'd like to join in, but I'm not 100% sure I'll make it in time.
So if you run out of slots for certain participants, give mine to someone else.. But please send me the password mr.T...

 

[Villu Arjakas]

I'm in. Need password too.

 

[Stuart Thomson]

@ Roland & David - yeah, if we get 20+ confirmed drivers, I will be giving them your slots, but if we get any no-shows by practice start, they will:-

a) be in trouble with me after they got the mod password, meaning I'll refer the matter up to Staff for penalties, and
b) lose that slot and I'll post in here in case you are still interested

So everyone is completely clear and can be under no illusion, what I expect/require from this event is courtesy, racing room being given at all times, people waiting for each other after any accidental contact - generally clean and respectful conduct.

In the Caterhams, especially at Monza, if it's looking marginal, concede the corner. If you get through safely and tuck in close behind, you'll get in the slipstream and be ahead by the next corner anyway. Think "next few laps" rather than "next corner".

This event is for is here for collective Fun, there are no points, no rankings. Share setups, strategies etc., the best events are where it's a inclusive experience.

I see lots of incident reports arising from rFactor events, but there are none - ever - from GT Legends that I normally run, so that is the standard I require, not your normal bunfight.

People not adhering to the above will find their evening shortened, and that the only thing that was at stake was the chance to drive with us again.

 

[Stuart Thomson]

As a guide for people's setups, the Academy class use about 1 litre per minute in race conditions, so a 25 min race will normally require at least 25-26, but no more than 28, litres of fuel

 

[Danny Clarke]

Sorry can't make it after all, have a good night.

 

[Stuart Thomson]

Danny - are you sure you posted this in the right thread?

You hadn't actually signed up.

 

[Eck Simpson]

I'll step back in time, gimme a go, please mister... oh wait, that was a little too far back...

 

[Ole Marius Myrvold]

I was struggling with my PC yesterday, have fixed it, I think, still getting CPU fan error, but well, I think it will work out. However, the internet provider has been struggling a lot lately, and are stuggling again today. I will race if I can connect, but just a heads up, that I do have a little problem.

 

[Stuart Thomson]

All - We'll have a little chat tonight after Race 1 and see how we want to configure the grid for Race2 (top 6 reversal, top 8, full reverse etc.)

 

[Villu Arjakas]

I'm having a pacecar-hammer.mas mismatch, is it just me or someone else has it too?

 

[Stuart Thomson]

There were 4 of us online the other night as a test without experiencing that, Villu.

It sounds like it's just you.

 

[Villu Arjakas]

Re-install worked.

 

[Stuart Thomson]

Excellent news

 

[Stuart Thomson]

If anyone doesn't make it for Race 1, I'll post in here when we're waiting at the start of Race 2 pracco session.

 

[Dave Simmons]

Just a quick update.. i should be there but the weather is really bad here.. Road outside is closed b'cos of building debris. hopefully my old window doesnt blow out lol

 

[Ondrej Kapal]

I am updating myself, I think I am able to make only the first race. I am after illness and I have to wake up very early tomorrow, so I cant afford going sleep late tonight

 

[Paul Le Gallez]

Count me in please
