what seems simple on paper, proved to be a little harder to learn in V reality.  I had entered remembering the rFactor version, opps, thanks to rooshooter's setup it was a little easier getting 'some' laps in, but need to do a lot more, time permitting before race time.

This is true; while learning it yesterday on that long right handler (which is nearly a straight), I overcooked it spun across the grass, over the hedge and flipped the car into the trees. The game then chucked me back in the pits...
At least the return to the pits in VR is instantaneous,  after such a spectacular track exit.  ;D

The baby has been unwell so I did think he'd prob wake up but did hope for more than 3 or 4 laps.

A shame as it looked to be a good race. Qualified 3rd, but after the server reset I started in 15th, I got back to 7th by the time I had to leave, and  with with the top 5 having to pit it could have been a good result. Ah well, at least with zero points I definately won't be in the top 5 for next week either  ;D

Qualified 2nd, extremely happy with that effort. New WR set by Bacchulum tho, wd on that and the race win.

Race restart and I was 14th or so, made my way up to 5th before the first lap only to go wide on the fast right hander and lose out to heaps of positions and knock into humper on reentry, sorry about that thought it was clear... really need to get me triple screens.

I knew I had pace and the car felt great but a few errors here and there and my 1 pit strategy on low fuel didn't work, new tyres gave me some extra life at the end but if I didn't pit I think I could've done a bit better without having to make my way back through the field.

Bring on Oulton Park?

Good stuff Phil Im amazed I wrote instructions that you could follow, I tried to explain as much as I could but looked a bit messed up when I read it all back. It may look like a complicated setup I am running but its really fairly simple once you know how its setup.

Guys no need to worry about any money as the servers are already paid for with probably 10 months left at least, when they run out if there is still a need for the servers we can possibly all pitch in a little and keep them running after that if needed.
