I couldn't find an F1 skin template. The template file file I downloaded from iRacing had every car except the F1. Am I being stupid? (not unlikely)

BTW I just did a 1.22.804 with several mistakes. Pretty surprised

If several people are interested, I'd be happy to put up a practice server.

You can't download the F1 template from iRacing. Technically we aren't suppose to be able to paint it according to what I read anyway. You can find the template here at RD right here http://www.racedepartment.com/downloads/skinpacks-13/williams-fw31-psd-zip-3512/

Thx Joe

Bob Luneski · Jul 3, 2011

Curious to hear how many non-RD members joined the race???

You got to keep on biting, mate
I bet you can go faster if you watch some fast drivers and try harder

@Sam: is that self-built or downloaded?

Kevin Ascher · Jul 3, 2011

You need to register at Tradingpaints.com (there is a tutorial by Joe which can be found in the iRacing section) I then can give you permission to upload your skin to that list.

@everyone: If you prefer so, you can also send mea TradingPaints link to your skin via PM and I will upload it to the list for you later.
Anyway, everyone should download that list to be able to see everyone's skins.

Bram Hengeveld · Jul 3, 2011

This starts to develop like a very nice grid guys

Cool

Will be my first race since 4 weeks! Can't wait

Dario Jagar · Jul 3, 2011

well, looks like I couldn´t join you guys, have fun

edit: back in action, good thing about guests with small children, they are going home early ;-)

William Nowell · Jul 3, 2011

Not sure if I'm going to make this one. Farm Fresh had a deal on some nice big shrimp, the grill is set up, and the pool is nice and warm. I have MotoGP on the dvr and I think it is about time for a nice tall drink. If I don't make it in the server, you guys have a good race.

Abdul Al-Amry · Jul 3, 2011

Official server is up guys.

Kevin Watts · Jul 3, 2011

Can't make this one sorry, signed out

Dario Jagar · Jul 3, 2011

bad timing for connection hiccup...couldn´t join back, sorry guys

Bob Luneski · Jul 3, 2011

Sorry guys, had to bail after 12 laps because I wasn't feeling well. It was great fun while it lasted.

Will - hope everything's OK with your Grandmother.

Kevin Ascher · Jul 3, 2011

I just spoiled my own race due to stupidity

Glad I didn't spoil anyone else's race...
Now I surely know F1 cars don't match my driving style..
I'm looking forward to the Vette on Tuesday.

Sam Peacock · Jul 3, 2011

well things went from bad to worse for me there, good qualy, fail start, then a spin. then another, then a crash and everytime i forgot to ajust the fuel :/ and only made it to lap 11 i think. not my best performance i must say lol

Lars Strijdonck · Jul 3, 2011

Guess i wrecked half the field. I really sorry guys

Max Reed · Jul 3, 2011

Really fun race, nice battle with george until our little incident, after that i lost all my focus. A whole race is really exhausting :S

Looking forward to next one though (=

Joe Hubbard · Jul 3, 2011
