Afraid not. Wait and see if someone says they will be absent.

Even though I'm not running Sunday, I will probably be turning some laps on the server this week. Doing some testing for setup stuff and what-not.

Just a heads-up

Présent

Marcus

I'm in

présent

are you sure, there's no issue with tyre wear ?

with hard tyres, a good set and cool driving, I need 2 stops.

3 hours before the race start, I'll be attending a local show. But I think that it should be enough for me to return home and take start, either set a qualifying lap or start at the back.

So I think I'll be present.

I have run a full test race now. Tires will indeed be a huge area for everyone to consider. I suspect Greg will dominate as he is a master at tire conservation from what I have seen.

Hopefully I'll be there

Actually he destroys his tires because he drives the cars so hard, but he IS a master of driving on slippery tires, and that makes him be at the top!

should be there , gonna see after this race if i'm going to leave this series or not

2nd try

i read some thing on the internet that the tcp port wont receive signals during that 3 min stand still for the formation lap
i have 2 options , shut down firewall, virus scanner and go out as i usual do and ask admin to send in private messages, /w fra bla bla bla during the 3 min

or go out late, ( can i press escape after the first 15 sec?? ) and wait in pit garage screen for the 3 min pitlock and just before the pit close hit enter and hit the track

You could roll out just before the pits close and time your recon lap so you arrive at the grid just before the clock runs out.

Virus scanner? What the hell? is that thing running all the time in the background?

I have a firewall too, but nothing ever happens.

I don't quite understand why you keep disconnecting

so to clarify

when for the first time you have to hit the track is within the 15sec right

can i press escape after i done that?

The danger in hitting escape during the whole recon process would be getting trapped in the pits after the pits are closed. Someone correct me if I am wrong.

Thx Mike. You've got Michelin tires ... Maybe it makes the difference. (It did made the difference in 1978)

We'll see sunday night what to think about all that stuff.

Present

Just exit the pits 15 seconds before they close. Don't leave the garage until you need too.

so the thing is i have to press start race before the 15 seconds , as i always do, and then wait for the last min for the pit is closing
( in general those 2 min waiting will kill my connection on the grid) so i hope now it will not in the garage
or i ll try one recon lap ) well lets find out then
