Did you see the story about routers running out of address space or something globally?

Hadnt heard of that but maybe Dodo should be spending the time fixing the issue rather then making up such outlandish excuses.  ;D

Hope it gets sorted before tuesday nite.

Which car did you skin? its quite likely you will be in a different car each week assuming this will be the season 3 cars.

Yeah, skinning will be difficult as like Marty says, you will be in a different car most weeks.

Here's the list, from fastest to slowest (averaged over Vallelunga, Imola and Mugello). There will be 2 of each car. Everyone will start in the Evora S in round 1. If you want to use your own skins, make them all the same name, because I'm not going to be juggling skins every week as well as cars. That way, I only have to set your skin name once in the entry list.

Evora GTE
Exige 240R s3
Evora S S2
Exige Scura
Exige S Roadster
Evora S
Exige 240R
Elise SC S2
Elise SC S1
Elise SC
Z4 E89 S1
Z4 E89

2 skins will cover the top 10 :), but you need 2 more for top 14 :(.
I think some of the faster cars have different skins for different versions, which would add a large load. :-\
At least I can prioritise now. ;)

I'd recommend using something like
photobucket (if you want to manage your files later) or
imgur (for a quick "fire & forget" upload)

I'm sure you will be in one or two cars Mr Bacchulum...

In fact, how will it work wally? I think there is a whole bunch of you guys that are within 10'th of a second of each other quite consistently.
how do you plan to spread the cars?

The cars will be allocated by your position on the season standings.
Positions 1 and 2 will get the BMW Z4 E89
Positions 3 and 4 will get the BMW Z4 E89 step 1
Positions 5 and 6 will get the Elise SC...

etc.
