It was race 1 of 11 in both the 1967 World Championship of Drivers and the 1967 International Cup for Formula One Manufacturers. The 80-lap race was won by Cooper driver Pedro Rodríguez after he started from fourth position.

    I'm beginning to think that these cars are too brutal for most people. The're all a bounch of whimps. We keep hanging on 15 signups eventhough it's broadcasted.
    You guys are sim-hero's for doing this! I'm feeling poetic and would like to share my feelings for your courage by William Shakespeare;

    St Crispin's Day Speech - from Henry V;

    We few, we happy few, we band of brothers;
    For he to-day that sheds his blood with me
    Shall be my brother; be he ne'er so vile,
    This day shall gentle his condition;
    And gentlemen in England now a-bed
    Shall think themselves accurs'd they were not here,
    And hold their manhoods cheap whiles any speaks
    That drove with us in the AC Group C series.

    Finally hoping to get some time to practice as I'm off work this weekend :)

    I know the track very well from AMS, I know it's an AC version but at least I have a bit of knowledge before even turning a wheel.

    The only downside is those straights, the 787B is gonna suffer slightly I think.

    Well ... I can get into the 1.13.xxx with the Mazda, but that's about it on Hard tires and 190 kilo's of weight onboard.
    Maybe I'll go faster with a bit of rubber on track, but so will everybody else LOL.

    Thanks for that matey. At least gives me an idea. Why are you carrying so much ballast? Shouldn’t you be less now?
     
  17. John vd Geest

    John vd Geest Administrator Staff Member Donator

    That is the total weight. 100 liters fuel and 90 kilo's extra weight. So when you guys finish the race in the last 5 minutes, I'm still driving with the weight of a full tank :p

    Can somebody tell me why I cannot join the server for practice,talks about checksum error?

    It sounds like something you are using doesn't match the files uploaded to the server. So make sure you are using the track downloadable from the events page link on here (not from another resource for example. Also make sure you are using an SRO skin from the skin pack. The Assetto Corsa ones will probably be thrown out. Hope that helps anyway.

    I will admit though I haven't tried joining myself yet though so there could be something not right the server end.

    I got on the server twice, so no problem there.
