So what is the Championship Race time going to be Han???, this vote has turned out a bit of a mockery..

 

[stigs2cousin]

I didn´t mind the 60 minutes but respect the reasoning behind the change.

60m would have been interesting with the tyres, at least for my hamfisted driving style.

Not sure yet, Allan.
The championship with the Abarth/Mazda will be an hour because with those cars it's easier but I want to test the GTO/TVR first to see if an hour is too much. I've only driven them on Monza 66 but that's not a difficult track.
In the championship is also Fonteny so that can be very intense for an hour.

Hey Han, not supposed to be easy. An hour is a more rounded endurance event imho. A lot can change in the last 15mins. I think the problem with some sim races is that they can be too short especially the 20 min ones. Some of us spend hours trying to perfect a setup and learn a track. It is nice to get a full sized race time to enjoy our pain

 

[stigs2cousin]

Completely true, Steve.

On the other hand I've heard about people that have a live apart from Simracing.
Wierd, I know, but this people then have to balance their time between Simracing and this other wierd concept called "having a family"

Yes, I remember that my wife said something like that once or twice (or ten thousand times).

 

[Allan Ramsbottom]

Thats why i like been single...

 

[gearwhine]

Trust me, families are overrated. they often end up letting you down and we are all better off focusing on sim racing

 

[Alfred Wayne]

Im good with whatever time amount we go with on Tuesday for the one off race.

As for the championship, I may end up regretting it when I'm off in the bushes somewhere but I'd still vote for an hour.

The Porsche Singer wasn't an easy car to drive but I personally had a blast with that a few weekends ago for an hour at another fat Alfie track.

 

[Programmer_Rich]

Yes please Han

 

[nepal roade]

I'm not sure if there is a mixup but I was only referring to this tuesday's race, not the championship.

Yes, I understood that. I was just answering Allan's question.

 

[eN1xes]

No worries, John.

There will be other changes.

 

[gearwhine]

Same as last week, password not letting me on the race server. I guess it is open?

 

[Enzo Fazzi]

I know practice already started but I'm signing out. Don't find this combo particularly exciting, personally.

 

[gearwhine]

All i want to do is join the server but not happening for me yet again.
