Yeah I was thinking this is gonna be good, I felt I had a little bit more pace in the corners but you were catching me easy on the straights. At that moment of the incident I thought you might try to get up the inside so I kind of went a little defensive but being off line a little I drifted towards the fence and well...yeah....sorry, I feel bad that you and the others lost out a bit as result, sorry guys.

A wise man (or comedian) once said, once you turn 60, never trust a fart....
Several years as an automotive mechanic I got a lot of lower back aches and bad knees, comes with the job I suppose. I got out of the industry because the pay was crap and dermatitis was eventually horrendous on the back of my hands (oils and hand cleaner). I've been operating machines for around fifteen years now and provided I don't slouch in the seat my back is fine (with a little stretching). But my neck and shoulders ache from looking down in excavators and looking out of the back window in dozers, also my wrists from pulling levers all day. I still can't hold a squat for too long otherwise my knees don't like to straighten back out lol, all this going on for so long but I swear only much more noticeable since I turned 40 last year lol. My right wrist can sometimes flare up a bit while racing but I wouldn't give up on it because I enjoy it too much.

Good fun racing with you guys again. Pushing too hard in qualifying and didn't make the most of it but still fairly good position on the grid, only to have a shocking start dropping back a bunch of positions. Couple of good close battles but possibly partly to blame for on off with Russ, sorry. Made a mistake while calculating my fuel during practice and put in 20 litres too much for the pit stop, so cost me a fair bit of time. I was catching up to Matthew by the end as well as Jeremy hunting me for the second half of the race, it was quite exhilarating trying to focus on not making any mistakes because my socks were starting to feel a little sweaty, forgot to take them off. Almost had a major incident while trying to pass Dave O at the end of the back straight but luckily it only ended with me on the grass rubbing the fence on the right side and no major damage, thanks everyone

Exactly. I think the load cell brake hasn't helped either.
Seriously though, I turned up the sensitivity to avoid this.
I like the feel of the load cell but I don't want to have to put 100kg of pressure on it (ie.' in an F1 car).
I keep it very similar to my road car.
I sim-race for the mental aspect, not to get a work out. :P
Agreed... I've wound up the preload on my pedal to the point it almost registers on its own and reduced the max setting down to about 40 in game (I think, I'll have to double check). I ended up with a firm pedal that I don't have to push super hard, besides, I have a portable wheel stand so it moves slightly after a while if I have to push hard. I don't have room for a permanent rig.

Are these cars the same as the drm mod? haven't had a chance to try these out yet

I'm both disappointed and glad, I'm at work for this round. I think the rabbit has got this one in the bag, but the turtles should at least finish...a lap or two behind...lol

Sounds good, hope they can make it all work.

so close! Gambled on the SS strat which was 5 - 10 seconds slower than that H S strat by numbers but gave better open track position in the first stint - Phil came out ater his late stop only 7 seconds in front and I started to gain for a few laps but then his newer tyres came good and he pulled a few seconds on me

also - did anyone else need 170+ litres to make the race or the DFV in the Lotus rather thirsty ?
160 was more than enough for me, but I think I'm a little lighter on fuel and tyres than some of you fast guys.
Got a little damage trying to avoid the carnage at the start, had a couple of good little battles. I went s/s/s with 100ltr start and 30ltr top up at both stops (30ltr seems to be about the same time as tyre swap), didn't bother fixing damage. I think I had my gearing and aero wrong wasn't as fast down the straights (aero damage too I suppose) and hit redline in the slip stream chasing Keith. Top ten finish but probably only because a few dropped out, Good fun thanks guys.

I think I reinstalled the driver for an issue like this once. New Fanatec driver available v310, previous v292
direct download link for v2.5 wheelbase https://www.fanatec.com/download/Fanatec_64_driver_310.msi
Their website is really slow right now and not too sure about drivers for other wheelbases, actually the download has stopped for me right now...might need to wait a while

Had no practice and never driven this track before, fantastic track by the way, only tested the car once before with the GTL series we did and did not like it. But with roos set up and his point and shoot theory I got it going pretty good, I made some very minor adjustments to roos set (going by feel alone, not data/tools/apps) and managed the fastest lap time. I left the set up on the server, it felt very balanced (for a porsche) like what Wally was describing with under/oversteer. This was a great combo, enjoyed it thanks guys

I will try tomorrow using my phone for data, not sure how it will go as I live in a place where mobile reception is crap, But I have been getting pings and speeds at least as good as my normal nbn internet and sometimes a bit better, but it does not seem as stable and anything that happens on my pc in the background causes big lag and have been getting random ping hikes, so be sure to let me know if I am warping about :)
I heard an ad on the radio yesterday, telstra have an nbn modem that has a back up mobile connection built-in, might be worth hitting them up for freebie if your main connection is still down.

My problem is and keep in mind I am only 15 mins from Tassies capital, is that our mobile coverage only works inside if I have my phone near only one window of our house, otherwise its 0 bars inside and only 1 or 2 outside
Hit them up for a booster, put the pressure on remind them you're a loyal customer

Or buy one?

We use older versions at work and they work well
