Sorry for the delay guys, just filled the list with the requests. Apologizes for not adding the flags, but I'm a bit in a hurry right now.

@Scott Urick: Since Juha had requested #2 already, I moved you to a free car, please confirm it in 24 hours.

Those of you interested in racing but that see no free car, post here anyway because if there are enough people we *might* do a 2nd race for those without a ride right now.

Sorry I didn't confirm that, Alberto! Can I still have #8?

I couldn't have imagined that a Belgian would have chosen other than a Jag-you-waaah from Belgium. Oh, wait. Are you sure he doesn't think it's a tractor? Do they have road-going automobiles?

Probably because there aren't any Belgian drivers on the entry list.

If you want to swap my #2 for your #8 so you can defend your Stars & Stripes, I'm okay with that.

It's OK Scott, nobody else asked for the car anyway. Also, unfortunately for me it seems we will be out the whole weekend and I will not be able to practice, maybe even to arrive for the race in time, so I have transferred my car to the only one in the wait now, Brian Janik.

If you want the swap that Juha accepted, let me know Scott and I will update the list.

Maybe worth adding to the opening post that you may consider a second race if there is interest. Otherwise, those seeing all cars taken may not see............

"Those of you interested in racing but that see no free car, post here anyway because if there are enough people we *might* do a 2nd race for those without a ride right now." .........Alberto

Good idea.

This race is a rolling start correct. Is there going to be a pace car to start the race? I recently tried a race offline and the pace car does some weird things like speed up and slow down a lot making it kinda weird. Also there is 3 selections of car after selecting the proper Silverstone versions. One seems to not have the decals and the 2 others have the decals but look exactly the same?

Just pulling your chain, Juha. Your avatar does say "Belgium". Anyway, I'm OK with #8.

After giving Juha such a hard time over car choice, I must relinquish the #8 car to a more capable driver.

I also have a miniscule chance to go to Talladega for the NASCAR race -- with credentials -- but at the very least will be joining some other proud rednecks to watch on the moving picture machine.

Sorry to hear that , but now someone else has a chance:

#8 Jaguar is free

I'd like to take it!

It's yours. Treat her well, and she will purr along as the big cat she is

Just taking a moment to say....

MY GOD! I am in love with this car!

...whomever built this mod. It is outstanding!

That is all.

Well who else but our physics guru?   It's Richard Wilk's job of course 

Oh, how could i miss this thread... I won both races with this magnificent car. I'll watch this thread and hope for a last minute ride

Ok,

So is there supposed to be no feel in these cars? I don't know if it's the car, the track or what, but I have no feel of what it's doing. Other than the Brakes are locking up no matter their temperature or Pressure setting as soon as I move my foot over to the pedal. The steering is all kinds of...I don't know. I feel almost as if I'm driving with a controller and not a wheel. I've tried the default 900/30 it's set at and dropped it down to 540/15-13 that I normally run and the feeling is the same. I turn in and it feels like it's gone to full lock. Also there is no grip at all, the car feels like it's running on really hard Road tires.

I dunno if I did something wrong on the install....I just dropped the folders in like you do....or if it's just how the mod is. I tested these cars last year and even accounting for the differences in sims, they're not even close to being the same mod.

Please help...

I'll free my car again, nice car, wonderful to drive in AMS compared to rF, but I'd rather focus on testing those yummy Indycars

Well you have more than enough time to test, but I guess Petr Hlavac will be happy to get your car 

I'm going to have to free my car up, 2 ear infections this week and regrettably I'm not feeling up to it. Hopefully someone can make more use of it

I'm in! Any free car, Pascal or Grant

Since majoriti claims this is a great mod, it must have been me being a tractor driver...

From the moment I exit pits it seems to me Bud Spencer punches me with his fist, and Im bouncing arround the track for the whole lap, and Terence Hill is sitting in the VIP post and watches me and eats pop-corn..

Well, one thing is for certain - I wont finish this race.. no metter what I do, I just cant control this car, no even in cruise mode... so no way Ill be able to race with it..

And with only left turns in my mind.. It makes no sence at all..

Im setting free my car, with an appologie for being lust.. I should have test those first..

Off to USA now..

So two cars are now open for Sunday.

Will the server be updated with the v1.5.1 stuff, or will it be left at v1.5 for this race?

(Hoping for the former, I've already updated...lol)
