đź‘Ť I think my brake balance was around 4/2 on the NSX, but I didn't tinker with it too much.

Yes, but we leave it at the settings it comes with. No adjustment needed.

Thank you, I understand now, I will set it back to original set up.

There is a setting for the room to prohibit tuning and if any of your parts aren't at their default settings it won't allow you on the track. The exception is brake bias, you can adjust that freely. So make sure everything is at default (suspension, transmission, lsd, etc.).

BIG TYPO on my part Brandon. I never meant to ask about the Vette being on SM tires, I meant to type TM as in the track (originally it was on the dreaded Autumn). I am all for keeping it on SH if everyone else is.

- BrandonW77
Ahh, you typed TM but I presumed you meant SM. Oh well, we'll still run the Vettes on SM's.

I have just been kick out of the lounge 3 times, cannot even complete 1 quali lap on Montain Trial, too bad I was enjoying those cars and was looking forward to racing with every one.
Have fun.

Sorry that was happening. GT5 is very peculiar in its network. Next race everything probably be fine for you.

Racing incidents aside, I thought that was pretty fun last night. I really like the atmosphere of changing the cars and moving into a progressively faster car each time. I also think that having driven three different cars over the last three weeks made us a little better at each of them, I drove all of those cars better last night than any previous races, especially the NSX. It's also cool that if you have a bad finish in one race you're not necessarily out of the running because you can do well in the other two. Overall I thought it was a very fun night of racing and everything seemed to go pretty smoothly. And I'm sure to nobody's surprise, JohnnyPenso is the overall winner for Tuesday's event. đź‘Ť

Was a good night of racing. I like all three cars with the tires we used and mixing it up in three cars for the night was a welcome way to mix things up. I'm disappointed we don't have a few more starting drivers on the grid but hopefully that will build with time.

Welcome aboard Francesco!!
You've joined up in the middle of our Championship Race Week. Check the OP for details but we race Tuesday night (EST), Wednesday night (GMT), Friday night (EST) and Saturday afternoons (EDT and GMT). Often if someone is up for some practice they will post it in here as enter the ORCA Champ room or in advance so look for that. We've had several practice sessions for this month's three cars already so I'm not sure if anyone will be practicing this week. Next month is all Italian month, with two Alfa's and one Ferrari which should be fun.

Welcome Francesco. You're more than welcome to join us tonight, but you will need to have the three cars (Corvette Convertible '69, Ferrari California and NSX RM). You'll also need to put in a friend request to ORCA_Champ as the racing is held there. Please note that the lounge will not have a yellow cup symbol beside it as that ID will not be logged in.
Our clocks went forward at the weekend so we are now on British Summer Time (GMT+1). I should have the lounge open around 8:30 pm BST this evening, i.e. in
See you all on the track!

I hope to join back in as soon as life slows down đź‘Ť The nice weather and spring time chores may be keeping people away from racing, for me it is. Good luck everything, looks like a neat format.

Congrats on the win JP. I will be up for some racing tonight if anyone is interested. Either the 3 cars/tracks this week or even some JR kart racing on Kart Space1 if anyone is interested (I know we have some doing Lancer's Saturday events).

Just got home... Can see that it again was a no-show for the Euro-slot...
Sorry for not being there, but wednesday really is a bad day to me for racing.
Yet it is sad to see how this slot has been abandoned after the move.
Also... I have to pass on the opportunity to race on Saturday.
Throwing a birthday-party for the wife. Not sure she or the guests will be 'understanding'

Pretty good fun racing tonight, even with just 3 at a time. Had a new comer, I think...Edwin1017. Glad you could make it out for a practice run. I will probably be on around 8pm EDT Thursday night for some fun and what ever else. Probably a bit more practice for the Friday tournament.
