Let me quickly hop in and test... I've been doing some other simracing stuff so didn't have the time to test much.

I hope more group c junior cars are present, otherwise it may be a boring race.

It's Alba-Giannini VS Urd anyway, the rotary cars won't be anywhere close to you

OK THAT'S IT! i'm keeping score for a Rotary cup, lets see who will be a unofficial champion

On twisty tracks the Lola Mazda can easily challenge.

David Jaques, you have a PM

Hockenheim is far from that, Avus is, Mainz-Finthen seems, Norisring is, Diepholz is probably to....

so yeah, we're f*cked in the rotary powered cars

Too bad my "original" Mazda is so loose that he is useless everywhere

On my way, please wait 2 mins!

Hello Guys, i get massive CTD, cannot join the server any more :-(

connection lost

got disconnected in warmup, can't get back in now.

im totaly fed up with this
dont mean hso but i NEVER had connection issues till this windows 10 and i realy dont know how to solve it
setting from router and connection info from guys who have np are very much needed

last year martin and co run the show i believe ask him for the connection server settings aswell
could help

well, im pretty sad..
ive been facing some stragne behavior, rf was crushing, fps was a disaster during formation lap...

and finaly, i touched with cannon, and kissed the wall franch way...
too bad, since i was looking to score some serious points..

Sorry José

I had a good start and try to push... Too much for The 2nd chicane...

Ended up in the barries i want to say sorry to Jacob for the crazy unecessary move and for all the shit things on the race, really really sorry. My car was completely unstable (as usual)

fork me, got distracted when going thru the menu looking which places people where, then i realized where on track i was and slammed on the brakes, manged to avoid 2 of the barriers but hit the 3rd on

was such a good race to, being spun in turn one by Pascal (at least i suddenly had his car diagonally in front of me) then carved my way back past all rotary powered cars, and was driving happily in 12th... then i do this

Personal opinion:

I was crap. Car was meh. Track horrible for the car.

Sorry for the guys being held up or if I was crap racing my class colleagues.

Uggh, I did not expect Marc F to brake slower than me into Ost Curve and I rear ended him under braking ruining both our races as I think we were in 7th or 8th each. Very sorry Marc.

Jose, you did the same to me but I have no idea how you could make the curve with that much speed. Glad you were 2 laps behind me when you did it, I would have been sick if you had been the leader.

Sorry for the contact Martin if it was my fault, i felt as though i gave you enough room. Great battle, but im sure you could have overtaken easily as you could brake much later

That was awesome when you made a pass as I was catching you. Enjoyed watching it. Prob best part of the race for me.

PB in qually was happy with how the car was handling, thanks JC

Race i had snap oversteer in 2nd gear on the third last corner i believe, i wasnt accelerating hard but around i went. rejoined last, now the weirdness begins.

I catch up to the C2 cars, i over take Simon and David Jaques i believe, then rf froze on me on the exit of 1st chicane, it unfroze with car on track undamaged but with Simon and David now back ahead of me??

I overtake them again and end up in 11? i'd only over taken 4 or so cars from 22nd??

It did this several times, most notably when Jonatan was 11seconds behind me, it froze, unfroze and he was 6 seconds behind me??

Could have been a fun battle in the midfield if i didnt spin on lap 1.. did make a few mistakes in ther ace spinning out at T1, least i could drive the car without the fear of crashing everytime i turn the wheel like i did at Zolder..

Cheers HSO and every1

4th! Pretty good with this car. Highest top speed of all I think, but still felt so sluggish compared with the 956. The Zakspeed is just too soft and have too little downforce. But, it is kinda safe. Glad to be the best non-956, non-Lancia in the field.

Did not really enjoy battling with Claudio, but I respect his sincerety about his drive. Was disappointed that he crashed out, but not really surprised.

Gratz to the podium guys!

Not yours, not mine, just a race incident I guess I'm a bit too rusty (yet ) for this kind of maneuver.

Had a great race until then, I just lost contact with Richard when a 956 overtook us. Happy to finish for this first race since... well I don't even remember when it was

@Philou: Un petit truc, quand tu prend un tour a quelqu'un, et que tu n'es pas en bagarre directe, il vaut mieux attendre une ligne droite pour dépasser quand tu n'es pas tout proche au moment du freinage. Surtout sur un freinage comme celui de la première chicance. La j'ai freiné comme d'habitude puisque je te voyais assez loin, sauf que tu es passé quand même et du coup j'ai perdu 2-3 secondes dans l'affaire alors que toi tu n'as rien gagné Ce qui est dommage c'est que j'étais en bagarre directe pour la 1ere place en Junior avec Richard. Enfin bon c'est pas très grave, mais pour la prochaine fois essaye de t'en souvenir stp
