Can happen bram, dont worry.. When u think this round will be eaced??

RustyDriver00 · May 28, 2016

Shattered, was really really looking forward to this, definitely the right move if there is lots of issues though, please postpone the event instead of canceling, would be a real shame if it doesn't take place.

Gotta say I signed up because all the dates was fitting for me, next weekend wouldn't be.

2 weeks after Bathurst maybe??

Is the server still up, struggling to get back to sleep, could do a just for fun race.

Quick question on Taruma, guessing no chicane? Cheers.

Erhan Jajovski · Jun 5, 2016

Can you change the track on the practise server?

I actually like the chicane (one of few) so hope it's included

The Friday mini race was no chicane, so I'm guessing it's without.

Bram Hengeveld · Jun 8, 2016

You guys chat way too much

Craig Patteson · Jun 8, 2016

Don't forget guys good luck

…and be careful in the first corner!

RustyDriver00 · Jun 8, 2016

How's the tyres holding up for everyone? Strategy around here is going to be interesting. I'll be impressed if people make it on one stop

Did anyone finish the club race without stopping?

alexSchmurtz · Jun 8, 2016

Tyres are a nightmare, yes! In my case it is not a matter of abusing the tyres or being slow: I'm slow as hell and can kill the tyres in 10 laps! Really need to be careful.
I think @Ingemar Petersson might have done the club race in one go… Or his stop was so much shorter than mine that I'm still wondering how many tyres he changed! If was in front of him 'till my stop, never seen him back…

Bram Hengeveld · Jun 10, 2016

One more day

I've order concrete tyres on Amazon that will be shipped today so I can make the race on one set of tyres.

alexSchmurtz · Jun 10, 2016

@Bram @Davy Vandevenne I was about to leave and saw the server up again after today's disastrous update... So I tried and it works! I was able to join and go on track!

That seems good for tomorrow! Let's hope Reiza won't break it again...
