    Hi guys, is it too late to show an interest in these events?
    If not I would like to participate, seems that our community still has a need for drivers.

    You are more than welcome to join the SRO team Philipp. With various issues occuring for many of those originally interested in running this series,it has been difficult for us to field a decent size team (4+)
    Check out the earlier posts in this thread and if you want to run for SRO, go to the AMD Community Discord channel and make a post saying you will be running for SRO.

    Hoping to run in this one but my health continues to be an issue so I can't say I'm a definite.

    Did as first test on the server, seems that some of us have an advantage because we already know Bathurst. (The brazilian Stock Car is a bit slower but not that diffrent to the V8)
    I would like to "sign" up for the first race, as wednesday was the last weeks the Automobilista day that suits as well ;)

    Oh dear I just realised that Ken and I aim to do two races in succession. Probably not the wisest thing to do :D

    My mistake I thought we had been allocated to Server2 for the whole series.

    Congratulation Ken and Philipp. Good race guys.
    I made a mistake in lap 2 or 3 and all my focus was ................ gone
    Than in pit I stall the engine and took me almost 10 seconds to start it again :confused:

    Thanks Flaviu and also congrats Ken, I did not expected you to overtake me after the start. Mine was not that poor but very careful and then Ken up to four drivers past me.

    In the end there is a lot of room for improvement, I played the long game this time and it worked because I had no major crash. But my pit strategy was questionable and my usage of P2P too. That cost me a better position but on the other hand, regarding personal best, I was only 26fastest on the sever :eek: P9 is ok.
    Nice event though, I really hope that our squad can enter the the Top 8 as next target ;)

    Overall I think we presented a decent team result for SRO guys :) Some of those other guys are AMS specialists so it's hard to roll them over!

    When I joined the server before Qual and went out on track, my car felt TERRIBLE and I was checking the setup I had created and my wheel settings because it was like driving a different car. Something changed when we switched to Qual and it seemed to be back to how it had been 2 hrs earlier, so I've no idea what had happened. :confused:

    I did get a great start and slotted in between the two cars ahead on the grid and then got a nice exit on the inside of T1 which let me sneak past you Philipp :) Somehow I then found myself in 8th and was having a good fight with Rob Thompson, but the car twitched coming out of T2 and I couldn't stop it from going into the barrier. The steering was knocked out of true so I had a couple of problems then in the next two turns, losing 4 places :mad: until I got used to driving with the wheel off-centre.

    As I got used to it I decided to avoid any repairs and just take fuel(no tyres) in an effort to make up places, which ultimately worked, even after adding a bit more damage to the car before the end :oops:
