I was under the impression that AC worked on RL data.
You measure the suspension (and other bits), put that in and that's what AC uses.
No tricks or short cuts.
I guess with the release of the tools this could be easily verified. :-\
If that was true it'd be a helluva simulation...I suspect it's not as clear cut.

He gets 5 spot grid penalties but not the DTM!   :D

yeah I thought so - you have to pull it through from the quali.  Well, good luck if you decide to do it.
(but is there a time when watching tennis isn't boring?!) :)

You're really onto it, mate :)

One thing I've noticed about the lap-position graphs: it starts on lap 1 and apparently shows end of lap 1 positions.   I think it'd be great (if it's not too much trouble) to start on lap 0 with the grid positions - that way it'd show the positions gained on lap 1, too.

Here the setup I'm using currently, altho it wasn't meant for this track it still works ok.

It's good for a 10.6 in my hands so far.

I'd like to say it's heavily punishable, but then you'd get a DTM...:D

Nah, it's a very clever manouver, quick thinking & great execution! Well done.

I have not been given to you or anyone!!!!1!!!! ;)


On a more serious note; guys don't feel bad about voicing your opinions, nothing harsh or rude was said, so it's all rosy and good.  If you guys don't speak up no-one will guess what you feel or want.   

So feel free to ask what your heart desires - it won't happen anyway! Ha! :D

I tend to think that it's all just a bit of competitive fun and I like the community atmosphere that people chatting and joking around brings.  It's great to stretch yourself to be as competitive as possible and to have a challenge which is fun in its own right, but that shouldn't detract from what I'm sure is a league designed to be fair, fun, and accessible to people of varying abilities and levels of interest.  The last thing I want is for things to get so serious that we are hiding setups from each other, submitting complaints about everyone, etc. and just not racing "together" as we do....

Beautifully said.  I had to quote it.

Ah, so it was you!
I rarely find the convo a problem - if I need to concentrate, and I do concentrate hard, then I just switch it off mentally.

But there are solutions - and it's not necessarily to enforce a TS-wide quiet, although it's certainly one. :)

From the top of my head;

1) I think you can switch the sounds off in TS, you might even be able to set up a shortcut for this.
2) you can turn the TS volume down
3) we can set up a 'quiet' channel in TS for the race, if a few ppl want this

Anyone else with ideas?  Opinions?

Exactly!  The GTA will be fun, I hope.  It was great in GTL that's for sure.

Had a quick mess around with Spintires, Had a blast even though I had no idea what I was doing. Made it to a logging camp and things went down hill from there.
Totally rolled my load of logs. Story of my life.

No wheel support, yet which i hope happens soon.
...from what I heard you can put the load back on with the crane...

wow, thanks Wally, this was quick!

Yeah EoP is a good alternative, I've been told (a friend uses it).  I haven't tested it.  I've used a 15m LAN cable in the old house.  That's the fastest, most reliable and cheapest, just have to put up with the cable sneaking around the floor :)

My apologies for my grumbling tonight!    I'm just getting grumpy and old, there's no denying.
These were still great races, and you guys are great!  I had fun, it was just a tad frustrating at times :D

I went with the 1st (short lower ratios) gear set to get off the line quicker, knowing that it'll cost me in the end about half to one second a lap.   It worked well early on, but I got caught up in traffic & accidents in both races, which has eroded my advantage completely both times.  But it was an interesting test.  I don't think I'd do it again on this track :)

I've also made the mistake of leaving the softs on for the second race, and due to a couple of bigger spins they were really slippery by lap 8-10.

Ah Rob, if you can get on 1 out of 5 that means you can get on.   Come & race, mate!
I do have the occasional trouble, too, but it's the other way around for me; 1 in 5 does not work. (the prog starts to join but it seems as if the server would never send the required data)
