AC Lotus 25@Feldbergring, Tue 25th July 2023

[Denis Betty]

It's on the 25th - you have another week yet

Thanks David. Just shows where my head is at. I thought these races were every Tuesday.

David, i am not sure if i have said it before but can i thank you personally for the six favorite tracks on my PC. I understand you are very busy but is there any sign of Solitude becoming available in the future. I ask not because i am greedy for your output but more out of the fact it is mentioned in your posts often?

Thanks Steve, that means a lot to me

I'm not currently working on tracks for AC1, but do plan on finishing and releasing Solitude and Clermont Ferrand at some point in the future (and possibly Schottenring) - it's just a matter of finding the spare time to work on them, unfortunately.

It's lovely to hear that people still enjoy the ones I have released, though

You’re good Denis, the races are indeed every Tuesday but we skipped this week since Colin is out.

Hope you feel better soon!

How much are they paying you to keep it secret? Well, you said it was not on AC1... I wonder

I was practicing last night and having a much easier time of it that at Donington, I've been working on braking technique and made some adjustments to my pedals which have made me happier in all sims I was using the stiffest config possible with my T-LCMs as I thought that was "correct" but having swapped out the springs I feel I can threshold brake now and not need to stamp on the brake every time. So, very much hoping I can make this on Tuesday.

I hadn't tried a Fat-Alfie track before - what a beautiful piece of work

 

[Fat-Alfie]

I tried the combo last night, offline (thankfully) and was 10 seconds off Allan's pace. Over 1 lap

I've been away from the wheel for too long, and I think I need to resign myself to the fact that unless I practice regularly I'm simply going to be a mobile chicane.

No, no David,

Allan isn't a good benchmark! He has become an alien.
Please we very much like you to join!

Allan is cheating, he has 13 kph more top speed than me

I was the same last time out David. First time back in AC for a while and must have been 8 or so seconds off the pace after an hour or 2. During the race I think I got that down to 1s or so.... or maybe a dreamed the last part.

 

[Fat-Alfie]

Okay, I'll give it another go. Could someone please PM me with the server password?

Don't forget to sign up for this classic comb. I see @Fat-Alfie has been practicing on the server so hope he'll joins us.

Look out for next week as we have the RD premiere of someone's (??) first ever (unreleased) track!
