Definitely a great race again! The rain definitely made it different. Glad I started on the prime tyres so that I only had to pit once. Too bad I smashed into someone I was lapping at the end of the straight in the rain and got a penalty otherwise I may of been fighting for the lead but that's racing. No hard feelings. But once again Paulus was too quick! Pulling away from me in 2nd at a rate of half a second a sector at some points!!!! See what you mean buy eating rockets for lunch!! lol. Gotta do it again soon!! Don't suppose there's any chance of an extra race a week is there????

What a bad race for me.

First of all, sorry to George. I missed my breaking points twice and almost hit you.
Started on the Options and came in for primes just one lap before it started to rain.
The primes were fine for a couple of laps, till the rain got heavier.
Wanted to pit for full wets and choose the primes again by mistake.
After that it all went down the pan. On my outlap on the cold primes under heavy rain I spun out every corner.
So I came in the next lap for my third pit stop and went for the full wets this time
Anyway, it was good fun again.

See you guys next Monday.

It was definitely a good race this week. Very fair and clean! Only, I started on options, which was the wrong call in the end. However, the patch did not fix the pitstops, but made it worse. Stuck in first gear doing max and variable speed around 50 km/h. Started with 59 km going down to 40 at the end of pits. Before patch, it would be 99 km/h on the limiter. Also, I remained stuck in first gear long after the end of the pits, already going into 1st corner.

Next time, no automatic pits for me, which took over more than 35 seconds twice in a row (primes and intermediates). Normally, it would be just over 20 seconds depending on track sometimes even less than 20.

Did any of you also had problems with the pits stop?

 

[George Pilkington]

The only problem I had Paulus was 'user defined'. Forgot to start on primes, which I had qualied on. Why does it do this? If you qual on prime then you should automaticaly start the race on prime wouldn't you think?
I also chose far to soft a set up wth the threat of rain. The car was easy to drive but not fast enough.
Pitted on lap 10 and binned the softs for inters and then ran them till they went orange.
Ended up 1 lap and 40 seconds down...
Why am I so crap?
Ho Hum, see you all next week
Thanks for some good clean fun.
George

 

[Peter Gurney]

I didn`t have that problem Paulaus but im using maunal pit limiter. Thats fecking hatefull George that has happened to me on a few occassions as well you think the patch would have fixed this !!!
Anyway i started in 3rd and was going well on the options. I pitted on lap 10 to fit inters and drove to the end of the race on these. I stated loosing grip at about lap 18 but couldn`t pit again for i would have dropped a few places. Also i seen first hand how much faster the wets are to inters when Wayne came breezing past me on his like he was on slicks. But not a bad race i ended up 5th im happy with that.
See you all next week

 

[Peter Gurney]

Sorry Wayne, connection fails every time... wierd because i can accept invites and connect from other people....

change your DNS to 208.67.222.222 208.67.220.220
also make sure ur nat type is correct

 

[Kev Wardle]

This is only a suggestion but i think maybe that the lack of response might be because of the restrictions on this race. A lot of people cant drive with certain driver aids off, myself its the tc. Now ok in a perfect world everyone would be able to drive with the same restrictions but this isnt a perfect world and not everyone are what i call natural gamers, i myself am definately not. Personally i would rather see a full grid with no restrictions on what driver aids are used than a 3 or 4 player race with all the restrictions. This is a game which we all paid a lot of money for and its supposed to be fun but there is no fun in not being competative.
Now dont start having a go at me about this it is just my opinion.

Put me down anthony but with the restrictions i can see me pitting every lap for new parts.

[Kev Wardle]

just another thought guys maybe pick a midweek day using the track that is being used for the gp at the weekend might give some of snail drivers a bit more help.....lol

 

[Paul B. Smith]

I'd certainly be up for some practice races. I've not actually tried racing online against real people before so it would be good experience. My gamertag is suffolkboy69.
