Hi fellas, there should be a spare of each you can use on the server.

 

[eN1xes]

[JamKart22]

[Medilloni]

Enjoyed that, thanks for organising Brian

....well, enjoyed until I got kicked for not taking a pitstop, 5 laps after I had a pitstop

(edit: I took the long entry and exit pit lanes, wondering if they were correct?)

Strange and bad luck John. Did you have the pitstop setup to put in, at least, the minimum requirement of 1 litre of fuel?

That's a pity , looked like the podium was on for you! I can't see that you've made a pitstop on the server, John. At least it hasn't registered one. It says that you have disconnected normally too. No mention of a kick or anything. Not sure what has gone on there.

I loaded up my json file to Simresults to see if I dreamt it ...it shows I stopped on lap 16. With a few mins to go I was teleported to pits with a big red sign saying I hadn't stopped and was disqualified. I was very hurt I may add
(thank f**k I hadn't put in shed loads of practice laps, then I would have been mad)

EDIT: Just watched replay of pit entry, two wheels comfortably inside the pit lane entry, very confused

I did Richard, set up the pitstop window for 1 ltr added. You were driving so well/consistently there's no way I could have got a clean pass without slowing us both down, so tried the undercut early, which I thought had worked... imagine my horror

On the bright side I beat my pb in the Mazzer by .5sec - such a fun car to drive

@Medilloni

I know I faff like an old git, looked at your stop in the pits, it was certainly very quick, 3 times quicker than my stop. probably means sod all, but I wonder if you left without giving time to actually get the fuel in. You will need to look at your pit stop, and check if 1 ltr of fuel actually went into your tank, I cannot do that in my reply???

i took the long entry and exit for the pit and had no trouble with that registering. in fact, i did it twice because i miscalculated the fuel (again)! i really need to install that fuel tracking app.

you probably didn't park in the pit just right, or didnt give it enough time. as @Alfred Wayne once pointed out, if you have successfully completed your pit, then the pit timer at top of screen will no longer be displayed if i am remembering this correctly.

Now that's a good point Ernie, will have a look later today ...although the little image came up showing the fuel going in, but you're right it was fast
