What do you need more of on the track?  Fords, VWs or BMWs?

Still waiting for the blasted wheel. I won't bore you with the details but Fanatec couldn't organise a piss up in a brewery.

Have good race guys and hopefully I'll be able to join you at some point!

This is gonna be a tough battle tomorrow!

the ballast makes a huge difference in speed and balance iam almost 3 secs off my pb :(

Knight and never please make sure to purchase your correct bulba in the upgrades section of your vehicle before entering the server

Knight 35 kg

Neverender 25kg

Another trick i noticed if guys are finding the cars laggy on response or understeering go to your controller settings and set the steering rate to 50% and speed sensitivity to 5%

it helped me alot!

 

Cheers

Three tenths seperate you me and David, David has an extra 10 mph over us so we must be making it on corners...should be interesting right enough.

Not going to get to the track tonight :-( 

Father in laws birthday today and I have to get drunk tonight at his birthday bash.

Will be there for the next one. And I've just wasted about 50 laps here in the BMW. That's me who doesn't practise.

Thanks mate. Its pretty strange. I have it on DX8 now and all is well. Your card isnt nvidia by any chance is it? As it wouldnt surprise me if its something to do with my AMD drivers. Anyway its good now so highlights will be looking as they should from now on.

Great fun today, first race was...as you may have heard...an exersise in total frustration in a fun way, I could close on Tarten through the curves and corners but every time I came close we would hit a straight and off he'd go. I would push too hard to get even closer mess up a couple of turns and spend another couple of laps getting back up to be defeated once more by his straight line speed. Chris up front just put in a near perfect performance never making a bad enough error to give us a chance. The race ended as it started with the three of us crossing the line about 5 secs between the three.

Race 2 was marked by Chris's generosity in letting me by after overcooking the first corner and stopping my pass, fair play Chris 'cause you know what a son of a bitch I can be to pass.

That was it, me just keeping Chris at bay for the entire race, the last 6 laps my tires were shot and he so nearly set up a pass a few times, but I was watching my rear view and just kept the door closed where I knew he had the edge. We both suvived a hairy moment when I disapeared from his view but I could still see him, "Where are you Knight"... "RIGHT IN FRONT OF YOU" by half an inch, a couple of light touches was all that came out of a situation that could have seen us both in the Kitty litter.

Thruxton next...that is a speed track and not suited to the focus...have to see if I can work out how to squeeze another few MPH out of it.
