AC GTE / GT2 @ Bridgehampton - Weds 25th Nov 2020

[Medilloni]

Can I ask how the restrictor % works? Is it server related or something I need to change in the set up? Thank you

The restrictor is applied on the server Calum, so you don't need to do anything at your end - the practice server is setup with the BoP applied to the cars too.

It would be great if you can join us on Weds, though first you'd need to upgrade to Premium and have a read of the rules, using real name on server & TeamSpeak etc in the opening post. If there's any help you need with that just post here and this friendly bunch will help

Thank you! That's me done it now, was a regular on here years ago, just getting back up to speed. Not touched my wheel in so long but I'll sign up for the race on Wednesday in the Ferrari please!

Excellent, 'yer in with the Ferrari, glad to have you aboard Callum

<thinks>not touched wheel in a while>picks Bridgehampton for 1st race in a while = balls of steel<thinks/>

The Ferrari seems undrivable, unless there is a setup to make it drivable
Will go Geeteetwobeemer

Welcome Paul, you're in with the Bimmer

Have put you in for the BMW but if you change your mind just shout - I haven't had time for a serious practice yet, though I was going to try the setup attached for the Ferrari tomorrow, dunno if it helps you, but it worked OK for Sebring (works with mediums too, play with tyre pressures):

Aye its a bit wild and bumpy, prefer that to the uber smooth generic GP tracks so I'm enjoying it!

I'll join you as someone who's not raced in years and wants to get back into it!

Medilloni, stick me down in the BMW. I've never driven the track until tonight and i started out thinking it was a bit barren but the layout is fantastic. The first series of corners is tricky to get right but it's got a really nice flow!

Just need to figure teamspeak etc out!

Edit: Medilloni, sorry to see this is your last race. I think you organised the MX5 races a few years back that I thoroughly enjoyed. Will others still be organising AC races on here?

Hey Lewis, glad you like the track! ...and you're in with the Bimmer matey

Re this being the last race - an update (post #103) is in the Ferrari v Lotus thread - Denis Betty has offered much appreciated help (and others too!), so we're going to be here for a while longer, hope to see you for more events!

Edit: If you need any help with TS, or anything else, just post here and the good people here will help you out!

 

[Scott Kelly]

Going to get some practice in with the BMW and Ferrari to see what I prefer. Can you reserve a slot for me please!

Hey Scott, a big welcome aboard! - I've put you in as TBD for now, if you could let me know which car by 6:30 on Weds I'd appreciate it

Thanks will try it. If I get tempted will pop a message on here

Is the server up for practice? Can't tell if its not or its just my inability to navigate the server list

Edit: Never mind found it

 

[Medilloni]

Sorry guys, I forgot to mention.... when you're on the server just check to make sure your real name is showing (re rules, opening post) - I should have mentioned it before It'll save any farting around on race-night

I also had my first serious test run on this track last night. Holy sh*t, this "simple" layout is demanding! Not much time to relax or check some data when driving and getting shaken around. Races will be a challenge for sure. I wonder how overtaking can be possible. It certainly requires a mistake from the driver ahead. Well, that's where this bumpy track comes into play.

I imagine there will be lots of mistakes & off road adventures.

Yes and the sand and dunes are killing!

 

[Reik Major]

Yep, will take a few beers and sunglasses with me into the race. So can I get the restrictor reduced a bit?
