    I may not be able to race either. Currently got leg cramps and severe upper back pain. It may die down. Sometimes it does sometimes it doesn't.:(

    Hi @Rob Milliken
    I can't join the server. Receive the "Package Not Available" error. And I can't find in my packages the rfmod file for today race. Just some SRO files. I have the track, the cars and I checked the integrity of game files.
    I don't know what I can do now :-(

    Try deleting the SRO rfmod files in the packages folder

    Done, deleted all. And when I try to connect to server just download a SRO file with no extension (in Packages).

    @Paul Anstey, can you please move your rfmod files form packages and try to connect to server?

    Rename the file in the packages folder with the .rfmod extension
    Go to the rF2 launcher, click the package icon on left.
    The rFmod file will now show.
    Mouse hover over the rfmod, and it will tell you what file is missing.

    To expand for any others

    When you try to join the server, and you get a package error
    package1.png

    Go to the packages folder in your Steam / Rfactor 2 folder, and you will have a file with no extension... package2.png

    Rename the file to add the .rfmod extension. You'll see the 'file type' change to show it is an rFmod package3.png

    Go to the rF2 launcher packages folder (sort the order by clicking the INSTALLED header) and you will see the rfmod. Hover your mouse over the rfmod and it will tell you what is not installed. package4.png

    Thanks to Jens for telling me how to do this :)

    Well I must admit I am falling apart. Seven weeks ago it was a knee strain, three weeks ago a back strain. I may have to take an extended break from sim racing and spent some months actually exercising.

    I will be relaxing with a muscle relaxant beer as you fellas work hard.

    Half fun.

    I've unregistered from the race. Been dealing with an intermittent heartbeat, and today it's decided to go off on me again. I feel like I'm missing a cylinder or two.
    Good luck to all.

    Right from practice, through qualifying, and in the race I had absolutely no grip whatsoever. It was like driving on sheet ice. I have no explanation for this. I checked to make sure I had my setup loaded which this morning was working fine but for some reason this no longer worked. I am mystified :confused:

    Grats to Kai for the victory. Well done all finishers.
    A shame to see only 10 on the grid. Hopefully more attendees for the following rounds.

    I agree. My first race in almost a year and I forgot so many things, like don't speed in the pit lane. Dumb. And the mistakes kept coming. Instead of a stop and go I did a drive thru. So I had to drive thru again for the stop and go. I miscalculated fuel and had to stop again for 2 gallons with one lap remaining. Other than that it was a good time and I look forward to the next round. Congratulations to the podium and especially to Kai who is incredibly fast.
