    Well that sucks. My first sim race in any form since September, and I'm out through no fault of my own in the first ten minutes. The game just kicked me out and then when I tried to rejoin it said 'you do not own the relevant content'... Uh, yes I do! I was just using it!
    Thanks for the brief bit of fun, anyway. Hopefully I can continue on and have a bit more luck soon.
    Sorry if I forced you off the track @Kostas Kantzouras . There was a car on my inside, and then when you locked into my rear wheel I couldn't turn in any more.

    I think about 5/11 retired. As far as I know the race is still going.

    Rejoin server for 30 min race if you can

    In my opinion this race should be abandoned and rescheduled. It's not fair for half the grid to retire in one go.

    Ken is going to restart it

    Ah ok, I had the same issue as you I guess, once it kicked me off, there was an update to install

    Can you ask him to wait for me? I disconnected my wheel and shut down my sim because I thought I was out.

    Weird start indeed, the other cars appeared just seconds before green light and i picked up major aero damage without hitting anyone, at least to my knowledge o_O

    what was bad about the first race and what to do about it -
    Rules and Regulations
    Under no circumstance will a race be restarted regardless of accidents or other driver issues.

    To be honest, I think it's absolutely right to make exceptions in times like this, and I want to thank @Ken Jagger for doing so! I understand your frustration @Roman Granatovich , but surely the racer in you understands that it's better to have a race with 11 people than a race with 6 people and 5 disgruntled spectators.

    Congrats to @Nick Westy for that win! I knew the soft tyres were considerably quicker than the hards, but I didn't think anyone could make them last for 30 minutes! You proved me wrong.

    Apologies to everyone once again, but I have no idea what caused the disconnx for so many. Regarding Roman's quoting of SRO Rules, the rule is intended to relate to "accidents or other driver issues" specific to one or two at most guys who might have some problem like a cat jumping on their knee (yes it has happened!), or their FFB failing and then asking for the race to be restarted. The fairest thing to do tonight was I felt, to restart for a shorter race as we did.

    Good race all, nice to be back racing again, Congrats Nick, sneaky move there with the softs. I made a few to many mistakes, ended up having a good battle with @Christian Dauger. Good fun. Won't be able to make the remaining races though, back at work from tomorrow. :confused:

    Im pretty sure it had something to do with an update? When I disconnected there was a pending update for the mod.

    Not sure about that Robin. I didn't have any pending updates.

    Well the exception of race start was beeing bloked by someone who was not supposed ro be in that spot. And when finally got by, had to give it back as game thought my pass was unfair.
    Lost my interest of it at that point.
