Still the same one I think this is linked to steam not AC, you should be able to get into the server still but I will restart it at 7:30 once Bafs gives me a car choice.

Thanks guys was "fun" in its own way, unfortunately my computer froze up on lap 3 and I needed a full reset. Came back and was a long way down so not much of a race for me.

I know it was only fun race tonight - poor Marty had his PC crash, but I querying the incident between me and RJM... did anyone else want to check the replays right at the end... Who was at fault there?  :o

Great race!

Was bringing up the rear as always with BAFS and GRUBERT, i unfortunately hit GRUBERT at the start of the 2nd last lap, which im mega sorry for, entered too fast and ran out of brakes.

Was good chasing BAFS towards the end, i had momentum but came in too hot into a corner then into the grass. Got back on the road and realized i had no more rear grip and couldnt keep pushing.

Very glad i managed to get to the final lap before the server shut down, huge achievement for me.

I will take a look at it as I think I saved the end of race dont have the start due to my pc crash, but anyway was still a fun nite.

Guy had the pace on me I think and he pulled quite a gap early meds vs my hards and unless he hit a wall I wasn't likely to catch him. I was surprised I didn't hit a wall all race but went a little conservative on race aero to try and avoid crashing. GB did well to pull a very quick pace all race and keep it on the black stuff.

After rebooting the computer I rejoined mostly to see how the scoring would work in a pre booked server, I didnt lose all the laps but had no real idea what lap I was on or who I was racing. I passed a few cars but most I was still more then a lap down on.

Good race guys.  Just glad to have finished in one piece.  Got to say that I'm glad we won't be doing that again for a while!  It's quite a unique track but I don't find it as enjoyable as a lot of other tracks like Spa and Murillo, etc. It does have a few fun corners though.  Seems more of a track day type thing for going for a cruise.

Thanks Mary-Ann for organising it all.  Your level of administrative performance was thoroughly acceptable.

Well done guys. It sounds like it really was an endurance test. Did people actually get to race together for a while, or did it get lonely?

Seemed a few stayed together but GB would have had a lonely one. He pulled an early lead with some very quick times and I went the opposite strategy and took it a bit too easy trying to avoid damage. I should have started on mediums and taken more risk early nut credit to gb for going for it and sticking it to the track all race.

Then as I had a pc crash and rejoined after a reboot I went through a few cars that were fairly close. On the results there were 3 guys that finished within 2 seconds RJM, Perch and Peter Reid. Thats not bad after 1700 corners and nearly an hour and half.

You really would want a larger grid here or even a revers grid would have been interesting. Passing people on the Nords section is pretty tricky and I had a brain berp lockup when passing Dick after I rejoined the server. Luckily he expected it  :D and so avoided a collision.
