Round 3 - Road America Grand Prix - March 2nd

Je n'aurai pas le temps de faire un seul tour d'ici ce soir, je préfère renoncer 🏁

present

Tonight, there will be a broadcast test on your usual HSO Youtube channel. It will be directed with rfautocam plugin, which :
- Trying to find most interest action on the track.
- Smaller difference and better place, higher priority.
- First 12 drivers are higher priority.
- Change to onboard camera, when close gap (20% chance).
- Broadcasting the finish.

I will be checking in on YouTube to see how it goes.

So, because of nobody giving me a clear answer in the last races, how can i fix those crappy view in the virtual mirrors??????



Car seems to be right behind me, but is about 2 Seconds away!

Don't know, if i can drive like that, because its really dangerous for others, too

Yeah, but as you can see, its also in the "normal" mirrors of the car, it just looks like the view is 30x zoom.


I didnt have the problem on the first race with the old (new) mod version.

yes I know , it s the same for everyone

Matthias, try changing this in your PLR file:

Rearview Width="64.00000"
Rearview Height="12.00000"

Fantastic racing with Petr and Matthias until that dreaded message: "Connection lost". 

Turns out the vibration from my wheel caused the network cable to jump out of the router! 

It wasn't a race that looked forward to much, and therefore I didn't practice much and therefore my qualifying was bad. But made a great start and had a lot of fun in the race! My little Elfin is looking forward to twistier circuits now. I really like this car, so nimble, so good under brakes! Just lacks horse power.

4 laps of "Shiiiiet they're gonna get me" until... Turn 12... Sand banking... And I got stuck... Well I tried to get free, but then my engine quit... Well, seems I am haunted by bad luck. Anyways, see you in the next race!!

Ce fut court. 10 tours et pan je me fait percuter à l'arrière au premier freinage. La voiture a heurté le mur. Roue avant gauche arrachée.
Alors ok je bouchonnais surement. Mais je defendais ma place après tout. Il aurait suffit d'attendre un peu car j'étais à la limite partout. Je me serais surement raté à un moment et hop dépassement facile. Voilà j'ai poussé mon cri de raleur. Aaaaaaaaaah ca fait du bien .
Pour moi c'est fait de course au final. C'est chiant car j'abandonne mais bon c'est comme çà. Ca arrive.

Dommage ceci dit car j'avais en bonne partie reussi à stabiliser la voiture. Mes premiers tours d'essais furent atroce avec une M18 totalement instable meme en ligne droite. C'était pire que pour Edmonton et j'ai failli déclarer forfait pour éviter d'etre un danger ambulant.


Par contre je vais devoir me pencher sur mon volant. Mon accelerateur repond bizarrement. J'ai aucune progressivité. J'ai rien en début de course puis boum tout arrive d'un coup. Coté freins c'est l'inverse...boum tout arrive d'un coup en debut de course. J'ai aussi l'impression que la direction est ultra flou quand je commence à tourner le volant. Pour ne rien arranger je trouve que mon FFB ne me rend aucune sensation. Mon G27 n'est surement pas calibré comme il faut. Partie de galère en vue donc car je ne sais vraiment pas du tout le calibrer

Sorry Philippe for hitting you.

OMG - never heard such a reason for a DNF

Great start for me and good fight with Jacob and Petr, but made a mistake under braking and could never come back again, just a little to slow, but P5 (6) is ok for half an hour of practise

Results and Standings updated.

Ludo désolé je te dois des excuses pour la touchette... J'allais effectivement un peu plus vite que toi, je voyais revenir Rey derrière nous et je me un peu trop approché à la faveur de l'aspie... Pardon

Je suis resté en piste jusqu'au 19 tour (9ème) où après une petite touchette de David dans le freinage de la descente, je pense sans effet, j'ai perdu la voiture dans la chicane rapide et fini dans le mur...

Ce mod est impitoyable

Pas de souci David

After my first pole with a new PB on this track i had a good opportunity for the Race. I like Road America with all these many corners. At the start, Greg jumped away as i tried to use clutch and throttle for a good start. So i was in 2nd and we had a good time over a couple of laps. My car was set for much straight line speed and a good braking so i was very competitive. But Greg did a good job around the corners and i couldnt get by or he outbraked me after the straights. Near the middle of the race i managed to get away 2 seconds from him so he got no slipstream by me. I had to concentrate a lot to keep braking points and manage the tyre temperatures.
grats to all finishers

First HSO win

Unfortunately another bad race for me. In T1 after start i hit a little a grass and lost for a moment control under my car so i hit anybody behind me. Sorry for that. I hope that i didnt demage something on his car. I demage my front wing so i had to go to the pit for repair it. I returned on the track on the 18 position and i pushed to catch the guys behind me. Step by step i climbed to the 11 position but i had planned to go for a petrol in 17lap so had to go to pit. After that i was on 14 pos. and than after two laps my engine said me good by 4laps before finish. Congratulation to all in finish. I hope that in next race i will be less nervous on start and will avoid any crash.

One question. Did anybody go to the pit for petrol?? I ask because my can has amount of fuel for 24 lap so i rather choose one pit stop to refill the fuel.

Hi bullet-men!

I just came home from... well, from hell
Didnt even had a moment to PM somebody I was not going to race, please, except my appologies.

next time
