*IMPORTANT - PLEASE READ*

Historic racing is famous for the gentleman racer era and that is the kind of atmosphere that I'd like to foster in the club. Please take time to read these web pages and try to get an understanding of what racing in this club is/should be all about.

Thanks

Aw, ok buddy see you soon.

Ole Marius Myrvold · Sep 18, 2021

Going to be MiA as well. Got two matches the coming week(Wed & Sat) so simracing-wise, I have to prioritize the Friday.

I did plan to use this track as well though! Great minds etc.

Would be gret to catch up when we both get some time Ole. I'm sure things will calm down soon.

Right you are mate.

Michael Rudolf · Sep 20, 2021

In please! Looks like a car slow enough so I can handle it

Denis Betty · Sep 20, 2021

Aw, I reckon you can handle most cars pretty good. This car may be low powered, but for H-pattern shifter fans it does provided an interesting challenge IMHO. It's simple enough to get around the track, but to be consistently quick you need to get everything right.

Oh, and btw it's great fun to race IMO.

Redvaliant · Sep 20, 2021

I'm in. New to these cars.

Nice one Buddy.
Hope yer gonna like em.

@Denis Betty I put up the server for you as I was on to set up the Friday one.

I also checked if I could set up the weather app for multiple servers. So right now the server runs with Real Weather - Forecast here. Note that this doesn't change track temp. So the track is 25 degrees regardless of weather and air temp.

Just tell me if you want it off, as I started to set it up without asking

Then I'll close the Server 2 weather app

Ole Marius Myrvold · Sep 20, 2021

SERVER IS UP!

GetMod is available for everything!

RealWeather is on!! Weather forecast is here

Aw rats, did I forget to put the server up?

OK I've been busy, but that was poor. Sorry guys.

I guess real weather is good. Likely I'll be the person most likely to have poor FPS if it rains.

Hopefully it adds a dimention to the fun of the event.
Thanks Ole.

You had forgotten that, yes

I logged on thinking "great, Denis have put up the server for him, and I'll just piggyback on his Sachsenring-work". Just to realized you hadn't done it. So I downloaded the track and set it up, realized while I was at it that I could just put up the Thursday server as well.

The forecast is likely to be dry though, so won't be much difference. A bit cooler engines due to air temp, possibly some clouds, but that's it! Been using it for a couple of months now. Only had one race been somewhat affected by rain, but that wasn't much rain!
