Is the weather working as intended?

It's supposed to yes, set to Malmédy weather. Did you notice anything askew ?

Clear blue skies whenever I've been on the server, 1c air temp, 29c track temp. Not saying anything's wrong, just wondering.

And now Jacob just cursed us...I see rain clouds headed towards the server soon. In the wet I am sure I can hit two buildings in one wreck.

Great pic by the way

Look what I found at Burnenville. Needless to say, I crashed hard

Anyone planning on pitting? My Ferrari says it will go the full distance+ with one tank. Is it correct?

Also, the HotLaps page is suddenly only showing 1979 F1 cars.

I may be wrong, but 80 liters should be enough according to Sim Dashboard data.

Btw, where can I find the hotlaps page?

N°7 - Lagonda DP115

Factory, I didn't touch it at all.

Crazy man

I assume 50/50 chance finishing/surviving this race.

I would have a real-life commitment tomorrow, but if that commitment is not confirmed, can I use the Aston Martin #20? If I don't show up at the track, I apologize in advance.
Claudio.

Sure no worries Claudio

Hotlaps here:

You guys practiced starts a bit ? The old s/f line of Spa means downhill starts and foot salads galore !

In real life some used to put a cork from a bottle of wine in front of the rear wheels when standing on the grid. That was enough to prevent it from creeping down the hill, and the cork was smooth enough to be annihilated by acceleration at the start without being thrown at the cars behind.

Speaking of starts, needless to say we expect it to be exemplary : the unforgiving nature of both the cars and the Raidillon de l'Eau-Rouge means there is absolutely nothing to gain but shame and pain from over-optimistic attempts there and then. Those of you who have GPL experience know what I'm talking about ^^.

Thanks Filippo

4:16 Petr, really ? Someone's getting the hang of this here '54 thing

Is this a Standing, Rolling, or LeMans Start?

Michal, The only setup changes I've made is to the Front Camber, I dropped it to -0.5, plus I also changed my Steering Ration but that's personal preference.

These cars are NOT modern-ish race cars made to go stupidly fast around this circuit, you've got to just take it easy, and not slam the throttle down. Last night on the server was the longest continuous stretch of running I've done around here without crashing, and it was 3 laps.

So, to sort of echo what Janak has said, if any of you Ferrari's have a setup that is stable and significantly different from the Default. I'd be interested.
