Sorry about your disconnect PNuTButR. When it did was just brutal. I hope you've enjoyed everything you have been involved in so far.

It might have been my mic that caused the DC. Just as it connected to my PS3, I was DCed from the race. I'll try to see if the mic was to blame or if it was just the recurring problems I've had the past 2 days with my internet connection.

The practice was good and I like the group of racers so I'll try to get a long to as many events as I can! 👍 I have a practice session for another event on the 21st of next month but I should be able to miss one practice to make it to the BMW race. :)
 
@Pnut, is your connection wired or wireless. I only ask as we had one or two connection issues in Sunday Cup, which were fixed by racers going to a wired connection.

Wireless, but there is no way that I can have a wired connection. (PS3 - bedroom, Router - Livingroom)

Well, a great race for me. I managed to stay out of trouble at the start and pull away after getting past TehLotus. The only dodgy moment was leaving the pit to start lap 13 after a tyre change and have Third Reign and Will bearing down on me into turn 1, but having the fresher tyres meant I could maintain the lead to the end.

Well done to Will for second place and Ade for third.:cheers:
Bad luck to those unfortunate enough to get disconnected. :ouch:

Here's some pics.



























 
I'm going to be that annoying guy who has to ask... what hacked paint item was used to make that car so dark and does anyone have a spare that they could send me?
 
If you are on about the red in the final picture, that is Cpt.disasters car

Ok, so let me know if I'm getting this right. 20:00 BST is 12:00 PST?

If I'm understanding it correctly you are currently PDT. You have PST(Pacific Standard Time) & PDT(Pacific Daylight Time), and my equivalent is GMT(Greenwich Mean Time)& BST(British Summer Time).
Assuming your clocks move backwards and forwards at similar times of year you should be 8 hours behind the UK.
In short yes, 20.00 BST is 12.00 PDT.
But I am very new to this so I could be wrong, but I hope not.

Here's a helpful website

Thanks Bo. I can certainly try to use that. It doesn't seem to work at all on the app which I probably do 70% of my posting on.
Any major op updates mean I have to use a computer so I should be able to integrate them easily enough.
 
Track is chosen. In fact it has been for a few days now, but I have had a busy time recently and have neglected this thread a little as a result:tdown::guilty:👎

We will be racing 6 laps of Nordschleife. I will have to adjust the qualifying session time to allow one out lap and one hot lap. I estimate around 7:30-8 minutes for a lap (I'm at the 8 minutes end:grumpy:).
The session will be 20 minutes​
you will have to make your hot lap count. If you are a Nordschleife wizard then you might get a second bite at the apple.
I will be trusting all that attend to not take the obvious "shortcuts" across some areas.
 
It should all be in the 1st post, but just in case I've missed something, any production BMW, (no race cars)provided it can be tuned/de-tuned to 500pp with less than 5% engine limiter, Sports hard tyres.
 
Hey CTR - I'm interested in racing in your 500pp league. Do I need to sign up with you or do I just show up at the Lobby?

I'll be there again, hopefully I'll make it past lap 2 without real life interuptions this time.

Be good to have you the whole way through 👍

Just so I know who to expect can I ask that if you will be attending and aren't on this list already that you copy and paste it into your post and add your name to the end. Or remove if necessary.
I'd hate to start the race if you've not been given fair chance to join.

When copy and pasting remove the [q u o t e=ctr driver said] and[/q u o t e] from the start and finish, plus any other text you don't want,to make it your text so the next person can copy and paste the current list
