    Hi All
    I'm a little surprised at your timings in connection with the start of the race. Last time for early start - but a lot of chat back and forth ...
    This time we start after summer time and the enlightened start time later. If it has always been logical that it is two hours later than daylight saving time - why not write it on the race banner on the website.
    Why not set it serve to manage timings - a la iracing, then there can and will be no doubt. I feel that the assurance tonight was rehearsed and too late for a Saturday night. This can be done better if you want this up in the super league of sim racing. therefor I didt punch out - Hope you got a good race ..
    Cheers Claus

    Complete disaster with an accident from 2nd. A. Williams I didn't see you on the inside I was not trying to close the door, I was just focused on the corner ahead and next thing I know is impact rear right :/ I think I had the racing line? I guess it just goes down as a racing incident.

    Then a complete disaster in the pits, spent what felt like a few minutes trying to kill the engine and reverse, and the car wasn't right after that incident, I thought pits fixed it but meh...Oh and a drive through penalty for cutting which I wasn't sure about since I didn't hear the spotter.

    Anyway, thanks everyone, many lessons learned for a smoother season ahead :) First race in ACC offline or online but I think I have it down now.

    Thanks for the race guys, was fun!

    Q: I started training 15 minutes before qual so there was no time to do a setup, so I took that default one. I noticed that all the cars just fly past me on the straights, so after Q I reduced the rear wing to minimum. I was maybe 14th?

    R: Did not have very good pace at the start so I lose few places there, but later got them back. There was few scary moments when someone with blue flag just stop the car middle of the corner, so I hit him little bit (sorry for that, didn't expect you stop the car there), and two guys fighting front of me and they hit at the start of back straight and they spun and I hit one of them, didn't have super reflex. But I finished sixth, so not bad. Some cars seemed to be really fast on straight lines even though I had the smallest possible wing. They were hard to catch even with slipstream.

    See you next one!

    Great race today, thanks to the organisers!

    Sorry to @Dan Houk for the bump, I wasn’t sure which way you were going when I came to lap you.

  18. Fun race that, after an annoying start. I thought the McLarens were handling cars, but they are rocketships on the straights. On some occassion I lost 0,6 seconds on the straight alone. That made the first bit of the race annoying to drive, as I just couldn't keep up with the lead group. At some point 2 McLarens came together and that gifted me second, but I was so kind to give that back a lap later by spinning :rolleyes:. No idea what happened, it was at a very strange spot, but I got one tankslapper after the other.

    From that moment I was on full attack mode to try and save the race. Had some great battles throughout the field. Halfway through I was in a group with Henri and Simon and we would end up with eachother all the way to the end. When I tried to pit tho, Simon had attacked me at the last corner, which blocked me from entering the pits :D.
    Had to do another lap and got in to bad traffic on my outlap, so when I came out, he was 4 seconds ahead of me again.

    My goal was to try and get him back, but had some great battle again along the way. Also had some scary moments with backmarkers who were sometimes doing questionable stuff.
    Last lap of the race was amazing, I was trying to put full pressure on Simon, to try and force him into a mistake, but of course he didn't mr Consistency.
    Finished 5th, which is pretty good after the spin and not much lower than where I would have been anyways.

    Picked the Audi an hour before the race, having never driven, also in AC. Not sure how to get the car to work, there is a very thin line between horrible understeer and snap oversteer.

    @Claus: I even asked before the race what time it started and Denmark and The Netherlands are on the same time zone. It was quite a late start, but it was known.

    @Rob Milliken Can you confirm what 'track limit' rules we are using in ACC championships.
    The usual SRO - wheel within white line at all times, or letting ACC rule the track limits?

    Just so we are all racing to the same rules for the rest of the championship.

    Cheers

    :eek: How much then did I lose on the straight, because I didn’t even get a tenth caught you when I was in your slipstream and you didn’t had slipstream. Gap was 0,3 seconds between us then.
