AC Fat Alfie Championship - Berta Tornado SP - Round 1 @ Bilster Berg, Tue 10th September 2024

[JamKart22]

Welcome to the OT Racing Club.

This is round 1 of the Fat-Alfie 2024 Championship and we're off to the very first track he created - Bilster Berg. It's a modern track as apposed to the classic Fat-Alfie tracks we're used to - but still a challenge.

We'll use the uprated version of the Tornado so you must install the performance data pack in order to get on the server - otherwise you'll get a checksum error. Just copy the files into your content/cars/dj_berta_tornado_sp directory.

It's worth getting on the server at least once before the race so you know you have the correct files installed.

There are also two excellent skin packs.

SITUATIONAL AWARENESS is essential for clean and respectful driving in our community. You should therefore use tools like Helicorsa or CarRadar and CrewChief. The links for these apps are on the bottom of this post.

DISCORD. It's important that you also join us during the event on Discord for additional information and instructions. Link is below.

Could I ask what tune you are using for this course gents?

Feels like it needs a lot of wheel travel, soft springs and lots of ARB. Using the one from Last week and its a bit hit and miss.

Thanks,

Paul

 

[JamKart22]

I'm still using last weeks

 

[BaldPaul]

That's interesting Colin.

Wonder if I have been trundling round with the Generic tune rather than your one.

Will investigate.

Paul

If anyone else wants the setup, it's here...

[BaldPaul]

Can confirm - Generic tune.

Phew!

 

[H_Belane]

I recently learned how to do this. How about the possibility of having your own car paint job Colin?

 

[JamKart22]

If you attach the skin here I'll upload it to the server

 

[H_Belane]

Ok great, I'll see if I can do something nice over the weekend.

 

[JamKart22]

What tools are you using to make the skin? Might have a go myself

 

[H_Belane]

I learned the basics here. I also use Gimp (free).

 

[HF2000]

Wow! I would like to have the MX5 F1 skins being updated to the 2024 ones! I'll have a look at this.

 

[H_Belane]

Hello Colin, done!

I am now unregistering from the championship. Can you let me know when the paint is available?
Thank you!

Fantastic design - you should be able to select it now during registration. If anyone else wants to see it in-race then they need to install it too.

 

[H_Belane]

Server problem?

 

[Twoddle]

Yes, hes trying to fix it.

 

[JamKart22]

its up now

Thanks for the race tonight. Shame about the server crash as we were in the grid. I don't know what happened there?

In had a very intense race with Richard but it was just about impossible to pass with our difference in pace.

No race next week as I'm away. The next Fat Alfie track is running on server 4 if you want something to do!

 

[H_Belane]

Siht happens, technical siht happens. It was a bit suboptimal to qualify second and then start last. But as I said, technical siht happens.
In the last 15 minutes the race really picked up speed for me when Thomas came out of the pits right behind me. It was a great duel with a better ending for you. (Feels good right? )

Overall, an interesting start to the series.
