    You're right. I forgot about Caitlin. For track change, we need 2 more votes.

    I would say until the end of tomorrow.
    Most people can learn a track within 1 hour or less. :)

    i voted RA, i dont know why people voted for Donington '38 for Lola Can-Am cars in the first place :confused:
    RA allows full beast mode in the Lola and is more authentic :cool:

    Round 2 track change = Road America

    Oke, now it's done, because I also vote for track change to Road America.
    That means we are on 11 votes now out of 20.
    I will adjust the server asap to RA.

    John, If we are running RA can I recommend you use this version as per Laurents post.
    https://www.racedepartment.com/downloads/road-america.32732/
    The old version only really belongs in the bin when compared to LilSkys new release...

    The track in downloads is the one on the server.
    I see on live Timing that 2 others already have entered the server.

    Stefan, you need the Lola off this sites link, our srouk one doesnt work. Found that out last minute for round 1 :oops:

    Re the track version, surely we should use the best version of the circuit rather than an inferior one just because its on the system? We are all used to having to update our track and car mods on a regular basis. C'mon John, use the linked one by mentioned by Laurent by Tim ! o_O

    It's not as simple as "just" changing the track. I suspect you don't know what I have to do.
    I have to:
    - Download the track from RD and re-zipp it to WinRar to fit our system.
    - Install it on my private system
    - Upload the track to the SRO download section
    - Change the track in acServiceManager
    - Upload the track folder to the AC server
    - Upload the entry and server list to RackService
    - Test the track to see if it works in all aspects
    - Program the track details and download link into the SRO registration system
    - Change it on the series track list

    The current track will do the job. :)

    So what settings are you changing to get those top speeds? Is the alternative mirror that much faster :cool:
    I'm getting 4-6kmh less then most of you, and according to the graph it's not due to my bad exits on the straights. I'm using the default setup, only changes I made was to the tire pressures.

    That was puzzling me too for the first race :) I think using 3 gears is the key.

    @Louis Defor I'm sooooo sorry man, I underestimated the lenght of our cars and punted you at the start, that was damn bad racing from me so here are my sincere apologies for that, you lost control and much time. I waited for you of course but that doesn't save me from that foolish mistake.
    Then I got some stutters, looks like this nicely populated grid didn't please my PC. :/
    After 2 laps and to glorify my performance for ever, taking the slipstream behind @Stefan Lagodin, I once again underestimated the car lenght or the speed gap between us, shifted right too late, and dramatically hit the pitwall due to some inertia, and eventually bounced, crossed the track and hit again in the wall of the opposite side !
    Both suspensions were damaged. And I was so upset of myself that I quit.
    Ridiculous event for me.

    Congrats to the winner and podium, thanks to my teammate for softening my ugly race with his very nice 5th position. Was great to watch the race thanks to the great-as-usual Caitlin's job !
