 faut a tout prix reproduire le champ 98 la saison prochaine ce serait criminel de ne pas le faire

Il faudrait trouver une solution pour les courses sur ovales (enfin pour les yellows), mais c'est vrai que c'est tentant

Les routiers sans yellow c'est pas génial aussi, ca enlève tout l'aspect stratégique des courses en CART.
Et puis ca sert à rien de faire un championnat CART, on a pas le meilleur circuit de tous les temps, Belle Isle

Moins grave je trouve sur les routiers

Pour Belle-Isle ...

Je sais qu'on peut supprimer ça.....mais je ne sais plus comment ..

Il faut supprimer le fichier "fans_normal_1.wav" qui se trouve dans le repertoire Gamedata/Sounds/Ambient

Merci

I added a setup on the website for those who are not cumfortable with these cars. It's for the Reynard but it may help for the other chassis aswell. It's certainly not very fast but at least you'll be able to stay on track easily, which is always enjoyable to learn a track

Hey guys,
I started with this setup and now Ill try to make it a little bit faster if possible, on setup behalf
What you suggest in which direction to go, I longered gears a little bit, couse with boost of 5 it meets the rev limit pretty soon on the straights, and played a little bit with wings/weight distribution, but it didnt get me anywhere for some final conclusion.. Im extremely low knowlege in suspension setups and further more, so any suggestion would do just nice.

Merci

Sorry Raul I did not improve my setup yet, and I'm not qualified to give any advice about setting up a car

First qualifying session tomorrow!

I cant make the qualifying sessions. Due to college and travel. But i am able to start the race. So if i can start at the back, im fine with that, if not, i give my car up.

That's ok if you start at the back

Lovely, then i will keep the car and start the race

I am sure Cyril will say "illegal lap" on that lap (as it was for me). Won't be ANYWHERE near that on qual day. Corner marshalls flame throwered entire garage and pit area after the lap

My real fast time is 1 01 080

Yes I know hence the joke

Bonjour j'ai du me tromper de voiture
j'ai le 2e temps dans le hotlap
en réalité je suis dernier je tourne en 1'04 pour le momment

Pas de soucis Cyril, ça ne devrait plus être possible de faire ce genre de chrono maintenant

Par contre si jamais quelqu'un pendant les qualifs coupe la chicane et que le serveur ne lui dit rien, ralentissez fortement histoire de ne pas améliorer votre meilleur chrono. Il est évident que je ne tiendrai pas compte de tout chronos fait de cette manière, mais je ne suis pas sur de pouvoir récupérer votre meilleur chrono valide, donc faites attention

***********

For the qualifying sessions, if someone cut the chicane and has no message from the server for cutting, please slow down a lot to avoid any improvement of your laptime. Of course I will delete any suspect laps, but I'm not sure I'll be able to find your best valid lap, so be careful

You will need to stop completely the restart or your time will improve.

Long story short, do not cut the chicane. In most cases you will get a nasty-gram "lap does not count" message anyway.

I hope this qual session goes well. Haven't been nervous about a session like this in a while. The speed differentials are massive. I think I am relatively safe due to the fact that I tend to end up safely off track when I screw up here. I am going to avoid any and all packs today!

Thankfully, my race setup is super stable and not that much slower than my qual. May get better as the weekend approaches.

You are a pro then. I have one setup for all situations. Something like F-15 Leave no prisoners.

Far from it!! I am a Pro at slow. About 7 months ago I stopped focusing on my qual setup and first always made my race setup first.

Will qualify on Saturday.
Good luck gents.

Is the server going to be started at 9PM? I cant find it now. I hope its not same problem again with me.. My F15 will stay grounded

The server is off right now indeed I'll post when it will be up.

Server does not appear to be up now. I suspect Martin is preparing it for the qual session and will launch it shortly. Get the ground crew to pull the wheel chocks from the F15 and start taxiing

Edit: for now you can enjoy the CART 98 guitar solo music

Edit to edit: What Martin said

Since there's 2 qualifying sessions, do we have to take part in both to do the race?

Oh, good. Here was me worrying that was the case If I have time I'll jump in tonight but I'll probably qualify come Saturday anyway
