So just so guys know how we score it the top 5 guys of each race including ai get ballast added for the 2nd race and humans carry over to the next round....
points for the series are only based on humans
example...if you finish 3rd overal but no humans ahead of you you get points for 1st hope that makes sense
I didnt get the standings for the first race if someone could please post them :)
I beleive helios was 4th
Kurupt was 7th
2nd race
Kurupt was 3rd 25kg
Knight was 4th 15kg
Helios was 5th 5kg
we will carry ballast over to the next race at Thruxton
Let me know if you finished in a different position. For whatever reason, Race07's replay is kinda finicky when it comes to the finshing orders (I've seen it vary just by swapping cars before). I tried to capture the position as the cars crossed the line for the final time.
That was fun, second race in particular first I made the same mistake as kurupt and just changed two tires...Looking forward to the next one already :)
Took a spin at thruxton...shes a tricky one very fast i was hitting 150mph in some parts...takes a while to get a good grove and is kinda like a mini lemans circuit. 1 miss judgement and your off the track, gonna make for some great drag races down the back straight ending in a game of chicken of whos gonna break first going into the chicane...should be some good crashes
how did guys like the added pitstops and did the headlights help spot the humans?

Yup mini Le Mans sums it up nicely, lights help spotting humans behind right enough, but not in front, still, we manage
Church when u update the points can u add 7th place points to Mel for the second race at brands hatch please and pozan the track should be snertton
Cheers
I just found this thread, I am a little slow. So far everything has been great, even if I haven't finished 1 race yet. I got my pit options all setup with the help of Kurupt and took a quick spin around Thruxton. Glad I have another week to get this track down. Can't wait for next week!
16 in total, give the AI a chance to spread a little. They seem to have a tendency to bounce off curbs and divebomb into corners on this track so a little room to maneuver may be beneficial for us humans :)
In the Race menue you can change car setups and set pitstops, best to have 2 pit stratagys one just for fuel (best case) and one incase you need repairs. Don't forget to map a key to warn pit crew, it makes a hell of a difference to pit times.
Great racing today guys!
Note to self all 4 tires changed lol

I found this tutorial for creating new skins for race 07. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YOttqCX2BzU&feature=relmfu
Incase anybody wanted to make their own skins.
Heh the first to crack it is going to be inundated with requests.
You know I Used to make my own paints for IL2 and Flight simulator.
I will have a look at this tomorrow.
The AI are a real pain in the arse on this track...Can we reduce the number? Maybe 16 drivers in total?

OMG im actually getting some laps in!!
YAY...Does this also mean I will have a team mate for tomorrows Porsche race?
NO because the Deal with the wife is we stay in today and go out tomrrow.
What lap times are you guys doing?
Also Im using a E90 BMW from the 2007 WTCC cars. Do I need to pit?
Although just had a 10 lap race with the AI and I LOVED IT!!
Also so I dont miss this what time in GMT is it (Knight?)
Yes you need to pit...I thought you had a free weekend?...and 7PM if its the same as last week.
Free weekend is next weekend.
That also means I get to do both days!!
Ok everything tested and work.
Just waiting for race time now!
Oh double YAY, hehe. Reminds me I need to work out pit stratagy...
I'll just say this...change all four tires.
