It was such a shame you had that issue in the pits, I was ready to drag race you to T1 when you came out! Just a note on the pit stop - everyone has a different approach to getting the correct position but I have it set like this:My pit stop was pretty slow, I braked too early to avoid a SG30 and missed the red rectangle by a meter, resulting in Chris taking the lead for the second stint.
It was such a shame you had that issue in the pits, I was ready to drag race you to T1 when you came out! Just a note on the pit stop - everyone has a different approach to getting the correct position but I have it set like this:
In Options > General I have Pit marker set to OFF.
Some might question the change of camera but it's so difficult to get it right from the cockpit view. It's a tip I picked up from some of the guys racing the ACCSS 24hrs of spa. It makes it more enjoyable as you don't end up throwing away all the hard work on track by messing up the stop (usually anyway, sometimes I still overshoot)
- When I get in to the pits I change to bonnet camera
- When stopping I line up the middle of the bonnet with the middle of the pit marker board
- Hit the ignition key to kill the engine and roll for the last few feet and stop with the end of the bonnet roughly two chevrons up on the marker board (test this)
- Change back to inside view
- Whilst the pit stop is happening I turn the ignition back on ready
- As soon as the car drops I hold the starter with my foot buried on the accelerator
Swanny giving up his secrets, I’ll be giving that one a goGreat tip about killing the ignition as you roll to a stop. Having that!
Perhaps you could be on listen only on the discord chat and answer any questions by in game text or something?I could hop on for practice, might be nice actually for anyone to be able to ask questions etc. My only problem is the kids are in bed so wouldn't want to risk waking them up talking loudly with my headset on so I wouldnt be talking much
Officially classified 15th. Just shows the value of finishing a race. I had a big crash down the straight, out of lesmo 2, resulting in spending 4 mins in the pits. Also my diy build 3d printed pedal lost its return spring limiter and became all floppy and loosly sprung and so I couldnt drive properly. I can't left foot brake right now, I've never bothered learning. I spent the last 10mins of last nights race suddenly learning to left foot brake with a really vague throttle. 15th, 2 points. Super pleased!Results are in
I've tweaked the point scoring so top 17 drivers can all get points (dnf or dq will get 0 if the settings on the site work correctly)

Yes, I was thinking just if he heard anything that cropped up in practice chat that could quickly be cleared up.To be fair, any questions about the event should be posed in the thread, I’m sure Chris just wants to chill and enjoy his race like the rest of us.
In game chat not to be used anyway during race. Discord in practice would be good though.
Oops, I mean 3 points! Read it wrong in all my excitement...Officially classified 15th. Just shows the value of finishing a race.

Also, Douglas, I'm sorry for the unnecessary dive in Ascari, it was a misjudgement on my part.
Yea indeed, lasted 8 laps almost. I was in 2 minds about defending especially with Johann flying on and being so early in the race (I think I only defended the inside once).I think this was our first proper on track battle Will?
