Hi Ivo I withdraw from this event

 

[Phil Hopkins]

Thanks for that very helpful information Dennis. I'm a beginner, so tons of useful info here for me. I was interested in your setup because of the way you described your driving style, which seems to favor stability. I completely understand how it's mostly the driver that makes for fast laps, but thought it would be interesting to compare the setups of you and Eric and the default to try to learn a few things.

I think there is a setup guide on here somewhere, and I do need to start working on that. I guess I was thinking I'd just go with the default for a while, since they seem pretty stable, and wait until I'm a better driver to start tweaking, but I think it won't hurt to begin exploring some basic things like gear ratios for each track, and trying to find out which settings make the most difference for me. I'm clueless about lock (and a wheel is a new thing for me as well...but I'm liking my G27...so much better than a joystick!).

So, thanks for including some basic philosophy of setting up here as well. And I'll change those tire and brake volumes right away!

 

[Colin Crompton]

was a bit off pace, but had some good scraps. seemed to be some excessive blocking by a few people, but nevermind. bit concerned though that my connection seemed a bit laggy. strange since my pings all looked fine.

 

[Kelvin van der Linde]

Good Races... 4th and 5th im happy, Bruno dont worry i dont report ppl, never have and never will... good racing m8, all is forgiven... Sorry Ivo and Alexander!!! had a few brain fade moments....

 

[Ivo Simons]

Your in Kelvin.

 

[Philip Sprangers]

Thanks guys,

For me the first time 'race on' with RD. I have to admit I was a bit nervous. Forgot to check my fuel before the first race. Had to pit . For the rest lots of fun. CU next time.:tongue:

[Ivo Simons]

For the most nice racing.

Q: 5th i think. Really bad lap. Looked like i went wide at every corner.

Race:

Had a oke start needed to back off behind Alexander and that dropped me to 6th. Following laps i went to 4th. Stayed there almost for the whole race. Until Bruno spun and i got third. Was happy with that despite all the stupid mistakes i made.

Race 2:

Had a very good start and won a couple of places. Just barely managed to avoid Alexander who got tapped in turn 2.
Was second after that, overtook Kelvin after some laps. But Andreas was close already and had great pace. So lost P1.
Fighted off Kelvin after that. Finally got a gap but offcourse messed it up. He overtook me but i had a low downforce setup so i got him on the straight. Braked at the normal point but still got tapped. Kelvin waited how it must be down. Still my race was messed up with lost wing etc. Pitting took ages. Finished 17th i think.

Thanks for organising Bjorn.

Hello Hugo,

I'd like to participate in this one. Thanks in advance.

[Bruno Sousa Ferreira]

ok 1st race was ok for me, second started not that great, got taged into Les Combs didn't see who it was, this sent me into another car in the way to the wall. (sorry for that guy, couldn't do nothing).
but all in all fun racing from everyone.

 

[Stefan Beemsterboer]

i lose counting to Chris. I don't remember how many time i've been hit...
You most be very strong, not to do the samething

But the track is still great, nothing is gonna change that. That's for sure!! ;-))

Stefan to my dissapointment it was the people who were up front that started the uneeded kaos, I refer to my post from yesterdays WTCC event and for those in this race that may not have read it it was in post #108

 

[Andreas Löffler]

me , i´m sorry - i came long the straight with Ronny on the right. After pass him thought the track is free and went back to the left for the next corner and oversight you there. My reaction was to late and we touched, i spin and you went unlucky into Rafael. I´m sorry, i misjudged the situation there.
Aditional to the incident in front it was a bit a chaotical situation and so one incident came to next one. But apart from this i had great racing then with everybody till i took the lead. The IFM is really fun to drive and together with Spa ... , great event - Thanks for opening and to everybody for racing together.

 

[Adam Eggbeer]

New to the game and not sure if I like it enough yet. Found it to have a lot more grip than rFactor which allowed me to get up to speed pretty quickly. Didn't mess around too much with the setup, just practiced doing laps.

Quali: Did a good lap but ran slightly wide at the bus stop. P12 with a PB, I was very happy with that.

Race 1: Made a slowish start and was passed by a couple of cars. Soon gained those places back as a few cars went off at Les Combes. Had a small battle with someone (sorry forgotten name) and ttried to go around the outside in fagnes as he held the inside, this allowed someone else to get down the inside of me but then turned left into the side of me for the second part which cost me a place. Followed Stefan for a couple of laps changing places occasionally and then coming out of Kemmel he slowed up and pulled off the track, no idea what happened though. A few laps later was in a good 10th place and then came across a couple of cars on the exit of Blanchimont facing the wrong way. Didn't have a lot of time to react and just couldn't avoid them. Sorry to Renan for the crash which took us both out.

Race 2: Started P20 and made a great getaway overtaking one car on the line and right behind another. Decided to follow them into Eau Rouge as its not a safe place to pass even if the start line was just before it. Unfortunately the car behind didn't think the same and I spun off. When I finally recovered I was last. Caught up to Sheldon but as I went to pass I got squeezed onto the grass on the run down to rivage. Couldn't stop the car quickly because of it and slightly tagged sheldon on entry but managed to keep it close to the curb for the rest of the corner but we made contact again and Sheldon went around. Unsure as to whether it was my fault I slowed and let him back past again. Got past him again and a couple of others who had retired, and Ivo who pitted but finished in a lowly 16th.

Thanks Bjorn, RD, and all those who raced.

Phil lets get on TEam speak and get your "logitech profiler settings" in order for that G27

 

[James Fellows]

Sign me up please, was 50/50 to decide whether I would, but after reading post #2 (brilliant post by the way :thumb I feel hopefully the public server style weeks we have had in the passed our behind and we can go back to the good old days of club racing, will do some practise over the weekend and see if I can keep up with James :wink:

To be honest, the last time I posted a practice time on here, people ended up being 3 seconds faster on the server anyway :/
