Timing not working for me on this track.. ?? Anyone else having this problem ?

Revs, fuel, gears, all fine, just the 2 timing readouts.  Dave O.  :-\

Do you mean the split times? Mine were pretty whacked out after a while. The one on the pedal display was quite different to the one on the bottom status bar. But the final lap times seem to be OK.

On triple screens it's the 3 bottom readouts on the right hand screen.

1st one is last lap, 2nd one is plus/minus lap time, 3rd one shows best lap time.

Time not showing on pit board on start/ finish strait either. ??  Tried a different track offline all good.

Tried this track offline, and problem still present.  Dave O.

Hmmm my lap times were showing there. Maybe you went off track and bypassed a sector marker?

Might have to download the full track pack, and re install track from that, and see how that goes.

Cheers Wally...   Dave O.

Fixed  :) Track from track pack did the trick.  Zandvoort RSR  I had was 193mb. the one in the track pack is 139mb.

Could still get on server np. though. Interesting ??      Cheers Dave O.

I think we've seen that server thing before. I don't know how strict netKar is on track checking. It would be interesting to try to rename a completely different track to Zandvoort, inside the track files, and see if you can still join.

Jumped on last night and did some Laos with Tim not sure about the others or where Tim ended up (down to) but 1:08s was my PB.
Liking guard to this track.

Fair enough call Wally. Sorry again for the late brake bumps. I'm only unhappy in the fact I forgot to save Race 3 replay.
Would love to see it if anyone could be bothered  to upload it someplace?

Great racing tonight, had some nice tight racing with several people. Best fun of the nite was with Glen attempting to coax me me into the pit wall... I was a male bees anatomy from it the first pass, then laughing around the first half of the next lap realising what was going on... Race 3 was a great race trying to find a way past Wally... Punted him in the rear at turn 3, hopefully I had you sweating at making that bath wide enough prior to the punt! Great job nevertheless!

Hopefully work will be kind enough to not need me next week... time will tell... thanks to all for the Tuesday nite fun!

Yeah, the racing was really good, hard and intense tonight, especially races 2 and 3. In race 1, Rob and Jamie in front of me just wouldn't make a mistake. I had some great battles, with Dave O, Tim, Glenn... the car felt really nicely balanced to me, front to rear, nice to hang the back out and slide around the corners. I just wish the brakes were a bit stronger!

At one point in turn 1, I must have come within 1 pixel of caving in Dave O's rear bumper under brakes, but just pulled it up - close call. Sorry about a side hit too Dave - I didn't even see that until I watched the replay.

Three awesome races. ;D
Race 1 chased Glen all the way but just couldn't find a way past.
Race 2    "        Tim        "            "          "          "            "
Race 3    "       Dave       "            "          "         "            "

I never got on top of the track, as shown by my shedding of ballast through out the night, but damn, it was still fun! ;D ;D ;D

Mixed night for me, put in some good times when there wasn't any pressure and then drove very irratic.

There should be a "Bunny Prize" for getting fooled ufollowing Glen too close, haha I has a good laugh at myself just after having a vector collision on the armco!  Very cool Glen.  8)

I need to be first off the grid and into turn one and two with clear air I think to do better, Wally could you organise that for me?  ;D

I have some points, need to go and practice for next week,

Sure, come 4th and the reverse top 4 will see you right.

Less than 1 second between first 5 cars in race 1, Great night.. Thanks all  :)  Dave O.

absolute  ''shite''  for me. nuff said

Oh r3 wally i had no car control at all, there are bumps on the side there that shot me straight back onto track sideways. replay does not show it clearly but i was not in control of car   ( enough reason to penalise me  ;D)

Yeah, to be honest, I wasn't sure whether you had control of the car or not. It was hard to tell from the replay, but you seemed to travel a long way after the original spin. Do you want me to reverse that penalty? I'll take your call on it.

I had a mixed night. I qualified the best I have so far and race 1 was great fun. I made a few small mistakes but knuckled down and got back on track.

It was all downhill in races 2 and 3. I seemed to struggle in traffic here more than usual but had a reasonable race 2. Race 3 was a shocker and made too many mistakes which meant I was working my way backwards through the field until I was clipped by an out of control car and got stuck in the sand. I doubt there was any intent and it looked pretty out of control from what I could see so just a racing incident. I don't think a penalty was really necessary here.

Last week was a very different story but I'll leave it there.
