Huh.....
Kinda wish I had known that R3E only has the Indy layout of Brands Hatch, before suggesting it......
Bit like taking Brands Hatch, and then cutting out all the fun corners.

Ah well, live and learn.

It is just one big fun corner now

Btw, @Kenny Paton you may want to password-protect that server.
I was on earlier to see if I could connect properly, and suddenly had company.
It could of course be one of us, but I take it none of you gentlemen go under the name Black Cobra?

I was on this morning and had a packed field!

I have no real problems with other people joining us Lars, provided they race clean and respectfully. Hopefully when we are able to move back to RD they will come with us. If they wreck then off they go. I am able to increase the numbers running on the server if it's needed. When I was on earlier there were quite a few running and there were no issues.
A full grid would be great but I can PW protect it if there's problems. So thanks for the heads up.

I love the indy track it means that even slowcoaches like myself get to play a part in the race.

And the other day you were complaining that a short track meant getting lapped too often....

Sooo what happenning

.Two times server was down.Maybe to many players? or maybe only I have a problem with this game?
PS.I thing we must wait for another version of multiplayer

Brandon Wright · Oct 7, 2015

I've been in Kenny's server before. I had to thoroughly shower afterwards

but I don't recall any connection issues and we had about a half dozen people in there. Now that I think about it, I've been in a few servers over the last couple weeks and I haven't seen any problem at all.

I really don't know, I've never had any problems before so am trying to find out before Friday. I may cut it back to 15 and see if that works, but really there should not have been issues as I have a fast connection. I really wanted this to go well so I'm

It was a pleasure Randy, sorry about the problems. Still haven't. Worked out what happened. In sound options turn master volume down until it's comfortable and you can hear the chat

That's what I do too. Turn master volume down to around 30 and then turn the system volume up so TS is plenty loud but I can still hear the game noises. The game is a bit quieter than when I race without TS but I can still hear everything just fine.

Thank you guys, I off to try it now

They don't actually say what the problem is......
But they do say they have found the issue and will have a patch for it next week.
