Providing Jonatan is feeling up to it, yes.

Yup, just haven't gotten around to setting it up. Been away refereeing floorball, just got home 

Will be streaming from my POV tonight as well on my Twitch channel from 19:45 UK time.

I hope you'll enjoy it. It will be the 1st time I ever see a race around Nazareth so I'm really looking forward to the racing that it could, or maybe will, provide for us to watch

Server is now set for the race.  Official practice in 2 hours

Please do!

I can't join the server, "Join timed out" each time. I can log onto other servers, I didn't change any settings since last time and I've already restarted my computer. Anyone have a solution for this one?

Must be on your end because we have 13 people online right now with no issues.

Try entering with another car to see what happens.

There is an actual winner's circle, so whoever wins can pull in here

ADMINS decission:

If Juha hasn't been able to connect before the practice session end, David Jaques can join the server for qualy with it.

Sorry guys, we have to make a call here, this is the easiest for everyone.

David says Juha may be able to join when the session clicks over to qualy.  Hopefully he is able to.

only one think, the live coverage on youtube is little delayed behind real action, so i can talk about action on track with this delay

The car is David's, can't join the server.

Petr part en tête à queue et m'emmène dans le mur, course terminée.

Oh poop, what a waste of an evening. Week actually...


...my strategy worked well until lap 58, when another (7th? 8th??) yellow was called, though we finally had a longer stretch of green racing and I found a decent rythm. Was chasing the Riddalls at the moment, and the decreasing fuel load made the car finally work. Well, yellow came, right when I turned into T3, and all of a sudden a car was right in the middle of the track and I couldn't avoid it. End of the race. Until then, I kept it very careful, prefered to let faster cars run instead of fighting with them, as I would neither trust my car at full tanks, nor the behaviour of other competitors on track. I already climbed into the Top 10, but it wasn't to be.
The week started a bit difficult. Over the last races, I had kind of thrown the car out its setup window and couldn't get it to behave or post decent times. I went back to my Milwaukee setup, which was good for pole, and suddenly it clicked again. I made a couple of small adjustments, and it got better. I found another little thing in the afternoon and it made the car turn a lot better, whilst still being stable, and that's what I used for the race. T3 was still difficult, but from watching, many seemed to suffer understeering. Nontheless, I dialed the car out a bit to much and screwed up the quali big time. A 21.xx was easily possible, but not if you juuuuust save the car in the first and crash in the second flying lap...

Well, next stop Laguna Seca

To the lapped people:


DON'T SLOW DOWN SUDDENLY SPECIALLY IN THE MIDDLE OF A CORNER!!!

Well that was interesting with some mixed feelings.

Pole was a blast!

Really felt I had some pace for once, however the SC really ruined my chances.
Got a Stop and Go for a False Restart.

I was a bit ahead yes but still the way it was driving I wonder (brake testing us all on the backstraight and more!). Had I backed off more I felt I would have caused mayhem at the rear.

Great racing in the field moving upwards. Sadly it got a bit to exited to early on.

Lesson learned.
