*In this race, one 4-tire change pit stop is required

Je souhaite revenir sur ça : ça voulait dire quoi ? Qu'un changement des 4 pneus étaient obligatoires ?

Dans le doute, je les ai changés (alors qu'ils n'étaient pas usés), mais j'ai passé 81 secondes   pour pas grand chose   (je n'ai eu besoin de rajouter que 20 litres d'essence)

C'est exactement ça, le changement de pneus etait obligatoire. HGT est assez hasardeux au niveau des consos et des pneus. Donc pour pas trop creer de desavantages pour certains, on a opté pour cette solution.
D'ailleurs je vois que tu n'avais besoin de refueler que pour 20 litres, quand la capri avait besoin d'un refuel de 70 litres. Heureusement que le patch poussait le reservoir de 65 à 110 litres, sinon je serai encore dans les pits a remettre de l'essence.

ok, merci Ben pour ces éclarcissements, je n'étais pas sûr du caractère obligatoire.
Pas toujours facile pour les non-anglophones... si, si, ça existe encore !

En fait, ce doit être 30 litres que j'ai du remettre (le réservoir de la Vette doit faire 110 litres !)

i hope you guys enjoyed the racing at this new daytona

i did now uninstall 4 gig patch
also set the internet speed to 128kbs for both

hope for a re race some other event and mayby its wise to introduce a pre race test
its such a disapointment to live all week to a race and not even get around 1 lap
specialy when you guys pick some other tracks form the pack like the jewels nurburgring or zandvoort

was expecting a rolling pace car line up , cause engines can blow rapid on the banking at a standstill start

Francois I have to ask.

Is the broad white line on the infield section of significance?


What does it represent?

It glared a bit for me during the race, but I am certain it has a 'raison d'etre'

dont know what you mean

btw i test it now with group c but get runtime errors now not using the 4 gig patch
sigh..

Please look below-it maybe because I had my graphics turned down low.

The white line on the inside of the track.

Maybe it is black with grpahics turned up...

thats deffo a too low graphic setting
should be very nice black race groove blended in the track

stick to x16 anisotropic and down tune from FUll detailel till youre machine can handle it

this looks very bad

I race on a laptop so have to be careful or my fps will suffer.

I'll give it another look Francois.

Thanks!

Was that in the race?

Yes, it was during the race battle with Yves.

The entrance

The exit

I had to do the same Gerard.

The slicks have good grip on the grass, don't you think?
