Note that this car assignment was done in order of how well you do in a race, not how fast you are (which are not always the same thing).Track: Silverstone InternationalServer: AUS www .xgn.com.au TRIAL SERVERPlease do some laps there, in the car you assigned when you join the server, using the DEFAULT SETUP, and reply to this post with your PB, if and when you're willing and able. We'll have some trial sprints here after season 2.Here's the entry list: Bacchulumlotus_elise_sc_s1BJSRacerlotus_elise_sc_s2cramjetlotus_exige_240 1:17.767Crimespreelotus_exige_240Dave Olotus_evora_s_s2 1:18.662Dick Forrestlotus_evora_gte1.18.045Flattoplotus_exige_240_s3 1:18.682Freezerlotus_evora_s 1:18.7G0RGAKlotus_evora_gteGlen73bmw_z4_s1Gratulinlotus_exige_s_roadster 1:18.182Grubbetlotus_exige_240_s3 1:17.888Guybrush Threepwoodbmw_z4 1:19.118GWyarlotus_exige_s_roadster1.17.6Imperiouslotus_exige_scuraInsomniaclotus_evora_s_s2Martybmw_z41:19.139Mopzlotus_elise_scRoblotus_elise_sc_s2 1:20.332Rolzlotus_evora_sStanDaamlotus_elise_sc_s1Vipergodlotus_exige_scuraWallybmw_z4_s1 1:19.486Ysulotus_elise_sc 1.18.673 « Last Edit: August 29, 2014, 07:59:23 AM by Wally » Logged “You can please some of the people all of the time, you can please all of the people some of the time, but you can’t please all of the people all of the time” Glen73 Administrator Full Member Posts: 898 Karma: 32 Re: Personal testing for Season 3 at Mid Ohio « Reply #1 on: August 21, 2014, 03:43:11 PM » POS Logged marty Hero Member Posts: 3747 Karma: -63 Re: Personal testing for Season 3 at Mid Ohio « Reply #2 on: August 21, 2014, 03:43:37 PM » 1:41.27 for me running default set just dropped fuel a bit. Handles like a pig but tyre wear not a huge issue as it dropped to 98 and stayed there for 10 laps was about .5 to 1 second slower at 98%.Is the server set at a very low refresh rate by any chance as I was following glen around and we both had very good pings under 34 but his car was moving around very oddly, I couldnt see any rotation in the car much like in the earliest netcode with high pings.

Do you reckon I need to change to one of the AC tracks, say Vallelunga?Marty, the trial server is set up same as the little servers always are.I actually didn't mind both the Z4's around here, drifting a little bit through the corners. In the standard Z4, I did 1:41.3.Marty I just saw your 1:39.312 on the server - updated. « Last Edit: August 21, 2014, 04:09:10 PM by Wally » Logged “You can please some of the people all of the time, you can please all of the people some of the time, but you can’t please all of the people all of the time” marty Hero Member Posts: 3747 Karma: -63 Re: Personal testing for Season 3 at Mid Ohio « Reply #6 on: August 21, 2014, 04:10:31 PM » Quote from: Dick Forrest on August 21, 2014, 03:53:36 PMNot sure about your track choice Wally??Huge performance issues.tried about 3-4 laps. I'm over it lol.3 minutes something for a lap time.Yea not the best track choice as Dick must have been running real poorly CPU wise not just driving, He had a 70 ping and me 34 and I kept seeing him warp ahead and back.I tried the z4 s1 also as I think the standard is a complete POS which you should try Wally. Did 1:39.312 in the s1 but I think it may be better to do this test on an official track that everyone knows Logged marty Hero Member Posts: 3747 Karma: -63 Re: Personal testing for Season 3 at Mid Ohio « Reply #7 on: August 21, 2014, 04:16:42 PM » Quote from: Wally on August 21, 2014, 04:05:44 PMQuote from: Dick Forrest on August 21, 2014, 03:53:36 PMNot sure about your track choice Wally??Huge performance issues.tried about 3-4 laps.

Its a track I like so a bit of a shame too but I take it that this is not an official conversion by Virtua LM the guys that made it so it could be improved quite a bit performance wise.The cars are fun and the standard is fun to drive or should I say slide around Logged Wally Administrator Hero Member Posts: 11033 Karma: 152 AC Admin Re: Personal testing for Season 3 at Mid Ohio « Reply #8 on: August 21, 2014, 04:25:26 PM » What, you could choose the Z4 S1 on the server, Marty? I thought if I assigned you the standard Z4, that's all you could drive, even though the other cars are available.

Re: Personal testing for Season 3 at Mid Ohio « Reply #9 on: August 21, 2014, 04:28:17 PM » Yeah I rage quit because I don't know the track, and hardly know the car, Was a fair bit of warping. constant CPU warning. (all settings at minimum) lost frames here and there.I figure a track we know, a track that will be in the series might be better for the experiment? Vallelunga? well that track scares me but I know it better than the one now.PS The Thurs night server isn't working?

In the lobby it said to select car so I first tried the standard then the s1. I even jumped into a lotus to see if the performance issues could be due to more cars then grid spots but the last elise in the list loaded in pit fine.

I thought those guys are pretty strict. The original author is credited, but I don't know if they have permission.

You do have a particular model assigned to you in the entry list (the standard Z4).
