German Grand Prix, 3 August 1975, Nordschleife

1975 F1 it is - close the pole - decision made :P

Hope there will be more supporter for the F2004...don't enjoy driving the '75 F1's at all.

I will close the poll wednesday evening.

To spice up the 1975 tyre strategy (since everyone did either 1 or no stops in the practice race), I'll increase the tyre multiplier a bit more from 1.5x so that it's not so easy to go without at least 1 stop.

I think further for the 1975's, I'll bend history and allow refuelling too, because that just opens up more strategies, such as getting away with 1 stop but being heavier, or opting for 3 lighter stints and so on.

I was planning to start next Tuesday, if that's OK with you
Edit: but I'm sure people won't mind starting a week later. You're a title contender, after all ;)

Am I right to assume to skin templates for the 1975's if they get up?

To = no, I assume? Maybe a question for Seanus, but I guess the mod won't have any templates.

Had a pretty short race last night...a slight contact with Simone's rear wheel ended my race.
Sorry Wally, think I jumped the gun a bit by signing up for this season without even having tested the 75's.
These cars and my driving skills aren't a good match...no fun for me...so I better make my spot available for someone else.
Have a great season :-)

Cheers. I've actually done 2 or 3 hours on them already. Again, I'm still a bit of a sim racing noob...and I don't have any real racing experience either.
I'm really impressed by the lap times many of you guys have done. Guess seat time and knowledge about how to set up a car pays off.
So I'm not blaming the cars  :)

No templates came with the mod, but painting should not be that hard without them. CM can always tell you the texture name of any part you want to paint, or maybe CM can show the mapping too.
"CM" ?  . . . content manager?
Can you elaborate on the method here with no template?

For me increasing the rear ARB made the car a lot more stable with better grip out of corners. But yes the car seems very sensitive to setup, more so than many other cars and there are no electronic aids to help. So stealing one of the alien's setup will be a good idea, Bacchulum''s setups are usually good  ;)
