Post by: rooshooter on January 24, 2018, 06:22:19 PM: I am determined to do a 1m9s before the first race starts on Thursday, not far to go with a best time of 1:10.096 >:( >:(

Post by: Phil.8 on January 24, 2018, 09:05:29 PM: So close
very fun little track, a short lap time will hopefully make it interesting

Post by: Phil.8 on January 24, 2018, 09:11:35 PM: With the race format , would people prefer 2x18 lap races done the normal way, i.e second one reverse grid OR 4x 9 laps with part 2 a reverse grid, so like 9 laps sprint then 1 min break then reverse grid and the 5 min break and do it again ?

If any of that makes sense :)

I am easy either way

4 x 9 using the automatic reverse grid could be fun Phil :)

Post by: Wally on January 24, 2018, 10:10:38 PM: They're very short laps, so will 9 lap races be a bit quick? But I'm game to give the 4x9 a go.
Title: Re: S12 R4 - Castle Hill - 25/01/2018
Post by: Phil.8 on January 24, 2018, 10:52:27 PM: I was thinking it might be quick also , but its really a 18 lap race split into 2 halves

Post by: imperious on January 25, 2018, 10:23:13 PM: Sorry Guys couldn't make it as Steam decided to screw up my Assetto corsa installation, giving an error about
encrypted content. The usual things have achieved nothing.
Hopefully sorted by next week.

Wasn't even race department. My internet has just been a bit slow recently. My ISP has a speed setting which I had on 'gamer' as it supposedly gave the best ping. I've just changed to to the fastest speed and it's connected at 17Mbps whereas it was 11Mbps before. Will see how that goes.

Post by: buellersdayoff on January 25, 2018, 10:35:38 PM: Great racing tonight, fair bit of side by side and a few passes, disappointed with myself trying to make a pass up the inside at turn one but hit the brakes too hard and locked up. Bounced off the two cars in front but luckily no wipe out and we carried on. Good fun thanks guys

good luck sorting it out

Post by: Wally on January 26, 2018, 10:52:08 AM: A mixed bag of races for me, with everything from a win to coming last. The car felt very different around here for some reason, after feeling so stable at the last two tracks. I had a few contacts with other cars which didn't end well at all for me.

If the usual fixes do not work you can backup your local files and uninstall and reinstall AC and restore your local files.

Post by: rooshooter on January 26, 2018, 05:12:55 PM: Good bag of races again with plenty of close racing. This series has been interesting in that the same setup has not worked at every track. I thought the race format was good. Gentrack should be fun.

Post by: humper on January 26, 2018, 08:53:53 PM: Great fun night of racing even though i was dead tired and could barely keep my eyes open. Don't think i was able to pass anyone that hadn't run off the track.
Holding someone up was about the best i could manage. Sorry Phil. Lol

As Roo says you just can't use last weeks setup can you.

Post by: Phil.8 on January 26, 2018, 10:01:40 PM: I don't mind the race format either for something different, I might use it from time to time to mix things up a bit

Post by: Mael on January 26, 2018, 11:43:40 PM: Strange race, could not keep out of trouble!

In the last race I spun out of the last corner coming to a stop facing the wrong direction. So instead of doing a 3 turn roundabout I thought I'll just reverse over the line like in the movies ;D Unfortunately the checkered flag did not come up and as another car stormed towards me I had the sinking feeling that there was still a lap to go! Felt like a real idiot.
